OMG...I love this. All so true! I'm 5'8, not as tall as some of you but still applies to me. Losing weight for us tall girls is definitely different. :smile:

That was awesome! What a great attitude and thanks for sharing it. :)

wow, you're not kidding what a difference 5 mths can make! What a huge difference especially the pic of you from behind. Your body has transformed. Good for you!

omg you look so good! You should be so proud of yourself!

I got the Timex personal trainer because it was rated #1 by Consumer Reports. Well, it sucked and I sent it back. It was not accurate at all. My sister-in-law had the same one and hers just stopped working. Prior to her Timex my SIL had a Polar and said it worked great for years so I'm going to try the Polar....seems like…

I was at just about the same start weight back in March. I know how you feel. I felt so misreable. I've lost 13 so far and already feel so much better. It has been frustrating because it doesn't come off as fast as it used to but I am trying to stick with it. I'm sure it's hard with school and two kids but at least you are…

I feel the same EXACT way as you which is why I am up early on a Saturday morning reading posts looking for motivation. I joined in March and did great for a couple months however the last couple of weeks things have been different. I feel my motivation slipping away. I have lost interest with logging food. I am struggling…

Hi! Welcome! Sending a request. :)

Ughhh...I'm in the same boat the last couple of weeks. So many things going on that have cause me to stray from my normal eating routine. I'm disappointed with my food choices and lack of will power. I joined in March and did so well..always had will power until the last couple of weeks. I have been struggling to get back…

bump...I was curious about this too.

I know!!! I recently starting tracking my sodium real close so I check everything now. My boyfriend bought some rye bread this weekend and thought I would use it for a sandwich. I check the label and it's 210mg per slice. I thought that was insane and decided now to eat it. Now it's not looking so bad compared to the…

What you described was me to a T when I joined MFP. I was so misreable, nothing fit, all my clothes were uncomfortable and I didn't want to go anywhere or do anything. Since joining 6 weeks ago I have lost 10lbs and I can't tell you how much better I feel mentally and physically having lost only 10lbs. You can do this! My…

Welcome! This site is amazing. Sending a friend request now. :)

You look fabulous! Well done! You look a lot younger too. :)

Yes it really works!! I was the person who started a diet every Monday but that changed when I started this site. I actually stuck to it and as of today I am down 10lbs. That was almost 6 weeks ago. I just read a great post that listed tips for new members just starting out.. I'll come back and post it if I can find it.…

REALLY good tips! Thanks for sharing! :)

If you have Publix near you they sometimes have them buy one get one free. Personally they are okay but evey one seems to love them. I actually like the corn flavor. I toast it and put a smidge of butter. And the chocolate I put a tbsp of fat free cool whip.

lol...thanks for the laugh. I had same problem with soreness with 30DS but I'm embarrassed to admit it was after day 1. I stupidly tried it a week after joining MFP which was clearly too soon. I was so out of shape. It nearly killed me. Thank God I sent my family outside when I did it...what a sight I must have been. I had…

I am in Coral Springs, FL! :)

My activity level is sedentary so I add it but not for light cleaning, only when I do a "big" clean (bathrooms, mopping, etc.). My tank top is soaked from sweat when I am done so I know I am burning calories. Plus I only do a big clean every couple of weeks so I don't consider it "normal daily activity".

Congrats! You look fantastic! Good for you with the burning of your jeans. And don't feel bad about it. I know exactly what you mean about certain parts being more worn than others. No one would want mine either. I wear/wore them to death!!

bump. i'd like to read about this later. :)

I have the same problem with my hips. My right hip is bigger. Actually my right thigh is a little bigger too. I'm a lefty so maybe my left side is stronger and I work it out harder/differently than my right side??? I dont' know but it is strange. :ohwell:

You look great! I see a huge difference. My boyfriend has the same issue with his face and neck. I think for some people it's genetics. It came of those spots a lot slower than the rest of his body. But don't worry...you'll get there. :smile:

Wow!!!! You look amazing. Your legs go on forever...lol. And you look so much younger now. :smile: I totally agree that you have to be mentally ready. That is key! Thanks for sharing. So inspiring!

Wow! You look great! WTG!!! :)

bump....thx!

let me go get my calculator...bump!

Ugh....I hate my back fat more than ANYTHING!!! Anytime I have asked this question I have been told cardio, cardio and more cardio. Need to burn the fat. Not sure if this is correct. I'm anxious to hear what others have to say.

You look great! Thanks for the inspiration!
