That's amazing! There's a huge difference!!! The scale definitely doesn't tell the whole picture. Keep up the great work!

I had the same problem. People asking me how much I've lost and then telling me I don't need to lose anymore. I'm like really???? I'm still technically considered overweight. At that point I was probably still 3 or 4 pounds from a "healthy bmi". I've gained some back since then and am working to get it back off but the…

Love it!!!!! Such an awesome job! You're showing the world that age is just a number and that determination and dedication are what really matters! Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see your updates!

you look fantastic!!! don't listen to the people asking you if you're starving yourself. you don't look the least bit unhealthy. i almost think it's a secret sabotage thing when ppl ask questions like that. and how awesome is that that you not only have the support of your wife but she's joined. you both look wonderful.…

45 year old, labor and delivery nurse, weekend nights.....the struggle is real! lol. feel free to add me. keep up the great work! and give lifting a chance. i've been doing it for a little over 2 yrs now and love it!!! it's actually the one activity that doesn't hurt my knee. it's done more good than it has harm that's for…

take a body pic and tuck it away for yourself!!! nobody else has to see it but you. i promise you won't be disappointed when you can look back and really "see" the progress you've made. it's a great motivator. you've done awesome so far! keep up the great work!

great job! :)

you actually carry your weight really well! being only 5"2" I would've never guessed you weighed 204 in the before pics. you look awesome. keep up the great work!

You ARE a complete success! You look amazing! Keep up the great work and you'll reach your goal wt before you know it.

awesome job! keep up the great work!

congratulations on finding what works for you! that's half the battle. btw....cute doggie. i have a boxer that looks very similar. he's one of my best buds.

awesome job. keep up the great work!

awesome job!! especially having 3 kiddos...it's not easy!

awesome job! keep up the great work! you should be very proud of yourself!

that's my plan. i'm on baby step one. not sure how long it will take me but i plan on sticking with it. btw saw that you were in the usmc. thank you for your service. my son is an officer in the navy serving on the uss george hw bush. i know the sacrifice and appreciate anybody that serves.

lol. that's kinda the basis of his book. "guests of the state" don't have all the fancy equipment they do on the outside so they learn to use their own body weight. i just want to be able to do a pull up on my own! lol.

that's awesome! keep up the great work! are you doing the "convict conditioning"? i got the book this week and have been reading it the past three days. your photos show the "big six: power moves". looks like a page from the book...which is a awesome!

just finished "sweat" and i enjoyed it. and my shoulders were a little sore from monday and tuesday so i'm getting a little more excited. :happy:

i just started yesterday. i'm one week late. did the alignment dvd yesterday. started with the lower body this morning. it seemed too short so i just went a head and did the upper body too (which was even shorter). guess i'll do sweat tomorrow. from what everybody else has been saying "sweat" is more challenging. i hope…

congratulations on all your success!!! good health is without a doubt a wonderful gift not to be taken lightly! continued success to you too!

you should smile!!! you've done awesome! keep up the great work!

awesome work!!! congratulations!!!

you're so welcome! even if you're not just starting out, 4:45 is a good time! my son has a natural talent for running (he didn't get it from me lol) but he didn't like to practice or train. he showed up for practice, ran a little and that was it. i never pushed him either which way. on the days he felt like he wanted to…

:laugh: I love this!!!!! My nephew is currently serving in the Army and is stationed in Fort Drum. He hates it!!! We're from NC so the weather is totally different. I check the weather up there every day and giggle just a little bit. My son is serving in the Navy. He's in Rhode Island right now for Supply School. He's not…

4:45 is an awesome time. especially if you are starting out! my son ran track and cross country in high school. his fastest time in high school for the 1600 was 4:21 and he set all kinds of school records and was undefeated all four years. his high school was a division 3a. he went to states 3 times and his highest finish…

congratulations on your dedication! it's amazing what we can accomplish when we start to believe in ourselves. keep up the great work!

Yes it is!!! lol. I think that is awesome! Congrats on not being afraid to start something new! Age is only a number!

i've been doing chalean extreme for the past year. i had trouble with my back hurting too during the burn circuit when i first started. think it is from not using good form during the dead lifts. concentrate on keeping your back flat when you go down and using your hamstrings to lift you back up. sounds simple but it's…
