Old fashioned oats :) I mix mine with a banana, peanut butter, and flax seeds. Delicious and filling!

Almost 5'4" and currently 134 lbs. I am starting to close in on where I feel good , but my goal is still 120 lbs. Depending on what I feel like at 125 lbs, I may stay there. My intake is 1450 a day and I definitely try to eat back exercise calories. Been at a stand still for a little while now, but I think I'm finally…

Thank you so much for posting this. Putting it in simple words and fully supporting it with picture proof! This is what people need to see to be inspired and really look at what they are doing on this journey. I am so glad I read this. :) AND.... You look awesome!!

Seems to be a lot of similarities! Yes, my husband and I are both on MFP, but he just logs... I'm always reading and trying to participate when I can. Too funny...

You look amazing! :) You should be so proud!

That's wonderful! You look great! Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for sharing!!

I am almost 5'4" and my goal is around 120 -125 lbs. I'm at 138 lbs right now and I feel good -- in the best shape of my life. But it's still not where I want to be, ya know? I think maybe you just keep going until you finally feel great in your skin. :)

That's a really good one! Thank you for sharing :) My plan is to be ridiculously good every other day so I can splurge a little bit on the holidays. We'll see how it goes!

I am stating P90X today too!! Would love some support and accountability through it! :)

Missed my Thursday weigh in.... still at 138 lbs. Needing to change. I feel like i have to change what I'm eating, but I'm not sure how or what to. I feel a little clueless and like I have no will power when it comes to delicious food! Bah. Current Weight: 138 lbs Goal Weight (for December 22): 126 lbs 9/29: 138 10/6: 138…

That's awesome! Such great feeling. :) Congratulations on working through 30DS -- you're almost there!!

Yep! You can get it at Walmart. It's definitely tough. 4 levels instead of three, but the moves are mixed up more which I really like. Her newest one is actually JM Killer Buns and Thighs... it just came out last month. That's the next one on my list! :) I also really like her Yoga Meltdown DVD... a little lower impact as…

30 Day Shred is awesome! I still do it some days. Ripped in 30 is even more of a challenge and I actually like it better. Maybe you'll have to try that one next! :) Good luck!

I'm Jo :) I am almost 5'4" and my heaviest weight was 164 lbs. I started losing weight a little over a year ago, but wasn't totally serious about it. My weight went up and down as I tried multiple rounds of the South beach Diet. I joined MFP in March of 2011 and since then I have completed Jillian Micahel's 30 Day Shred…

I almost made it my challenge goal... still feel like I'm bouncing around, but I am still trying and that's what counts! :) Current Weight: 138.6 Challenge Goal Weight (for Sept. 1st): 130 lbs REVISED to 137 lbs Weight Category: REDUCE (6 lbs) Group: REVISED Lookin' Slim...Droppin' 5-10 6/9: 142.6 **start of challenge**…

Staying at 140.4 this week. All week I have been bouncing around 140.4, 141.4, and 142.4.... It's always with the .4 too... I am just not sure what to do break out of this plateau :/ Current Weight: 140.4 Challenge Goal Weight (for Sept. 1st): 130 lbs REVISED to 137 lbs Weight Category: REDUCE (6 lbs) Group: REVISED…

Still at 140.4.... doing my best to work hard and eat really clean this week. I want to be back into the 130's!

bump!

Up a little this week... my weekend didn't help. Back on track this week... I want to bust out of this plateau.

Okay, not sure what I think of the second article. It is definitely coming from a diet approach and not a lifestyle approach... I am trying to change my eating habits in general... as well as my exercise habits. I don't think trying to go back to go back to my old ways however gradually will do me any good in the long run.…

Interesting read... I think there is some real validity to it. I have been in a plateau for about two months now. While some may think I'm not eating enough of the right foods or expending enough calories... I am doing what I was doing to lose weight and more. I've tried various things to get the scale moving again, but I…

YES!!! First time I am feeling successful during this challenge. 139.8! :D Breaking out of the 140's and making my mini goal! :) Current Weight: 139.8 Challenge Goal Weight (for Sept. 1st): 130 lbs REVISED to 137 lbs Weight Category: REDUCE (6 lbs) Group: REVISED Lookin' Slim...Droppin' 5-10 6/9: 142.6 **start of…

I still wear the baggy stuff if it isn't TOO baggy... and I went to goodwill so I could at least have one pair of shorts that fit... and my mom gave me a few things. That mixture has worked out well for me so far. I didn't want to buy a bunch of new clothes yet because I still want to drop another size. Then let the…

Ripped in 30 sounds perfect for you then! It is most definitely harder than 30DS, but easy to transition to... It's kind of the same routine with Jillian, 3-2-1, etc. It just kicks it up a few notches. I really enjoyed (well, you know what I mean... haha) both of those programs. Now, I just pick one of those workouts every…

I have been a Coca Cola addict my whole life. Love coke and I used to drink it all day long... it was such a thing for me that friends would buy me coke product gifts of all kinds. It was a joke that I never went anywhere without a coke in my purse. So, let me just say... I have been there. BUT... I am not there anymore.…

Feeling a little down this week... It wasn't the best as far as eating goes. Also weighing in with TOM... so, back to 143. I'm hoping it'll be back down next week. :( Current Weight: 143 Challenge Goal Weight (for Sept. 1st): 130 lbs REVISED to 137 lbs Weight Category: REDUCE (6 lbs) Group: REVISED Lookin' Slim...Droppin'…

Maybe try adding in some strength training? That will help with toning and changing your shape. :)

Way to go! Such a good feeling! :) I loved (and hated) 30DS! A couple weeks ago I finished JM's Ripped in 30... now, that one definitely kicks it up a notch from 30DS, but it's worth it! Now, I'm trying her yoga meltdown dvd. All her stuff just keeps me so motivated! I'd recommend any of it if you are looking for something…

I love this! Way to go! :) I can totally understand all of those feelings. I feel certain 26 will be a million times better than 25 because you want it to and you sound so ready for it. :) I don't think I have binged, but I certainly end up cheating quite a bit... I think it's okay to cheat sometimes, but my sometimes has…
