Sweet, thank you.

Not about really wanting to loose weight per say but the fat. I just need some more insight as to whether my current weight loss can be assumed to be from fat vs muscle since I am still progressively lifting heavier. I was confused as the more added sprints I am doing could be the cause behind suddenly dropping some weight.

That's awesome. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Uk, before that, Germany and before that, Chicago.

Dear 16 year old self, As effed up as life is gonna get and has been, keep doing what you are doing. You are going to lead me down the path of eventual happiness that I wouldn't change a thing about.

I'm in the Uk. It's 8:45 am here. Gotta go start my day....bleh. :-)

Of course they did, but I bet you anything they don't want this embarrassing incident to happen again. No matter who they blame, I bet this kid and parents had their eyes opened.

To me and my home, we used spanking when they were younger, but only to snap them out of whatever they were doing wrong and not paying attention to my words. Guess what? I haven't had to spank my children for years and I get lots of compliments of how well behaved my children are. At a young age though, you can't just…

And of course here come the parents who come along angry that someone else has to deal with their child! Granted maybe handcuffs wasn't the solution but the parents certainly have woken up to their child's problem now! Thank goodness she is only 6, it'll be a lot less harder to fix than a teenager who cries out for…

That guy was supposed to be a video but it didn't turn out that way. Wonder why?

It was so fun! I can run so well now and I was a speed walker before but my legs are SORE! Plus the food was awesome so it's a good thing I was walking so much...:-)

I read somewhere the toning is a bit of a myth. You are either building muscle or you aren't. Strength training has worked for me to shrink but my weight loss is at a stand still. I'm ok with that since I'm always being told I'm just shrinking everytime people see me again. I haven't lost a single pound for almost a month.…

I would just like to get stronger, I think I'll have to go the 8 reps route and see how much I can squat tonight only doing 8 instead. Those numbers look amazing! I'm benching 65 right now but that number doesn't seem to budge.

I highly recommend doing some strength training in there. I went from never being able to pass 6 miles in an hour 3 weeks ago, I went 7.34 tonight! All thanks to strength training. It really works for me! I run hard on the days I do not lift and rest completely on Sundays. My weight has stalled out but I was warned it…

I'm in the same boat. 5' 4" and my weight has stalled. Although when I asked about it, all of the responses I got were to stop looking at the scale for a long period of time. It WILL come off, it just takes a bit longer but when it does come off, you will look amazing! Its worth the wait! Let me tell you, I started with…

Can I just say, as a woman, your weight loss made your boobs look amazing! :-)

NICE!

I have to wear two also, and a regular bra when I have extra soreness from PMSing! I hate boob pain and bouncing. I use Nike sports bras, the work wonders for me!

Tea Leoni, only because her sense of humor would do mine justice I think. Or Kristen Wigg. On looks, I don't know what celebrity I most resemble. My skinny days a couple of years ago I got told I looked like Scarlett Johansson a lot. But I never saw it.

Humor is the sexiest thing to me. Make me laugh and I will try and get in your pants. That's how I got married. :-)

From what I gather from reading on here, the muscles are more likely to come first and the fat will come off later. Plus, the more muscle you have, the more fat you are going to burn as well. It takes time but you are doing it right from the get-go to gain the muscle and let the fat come off. Also, the longer it takes for…

Maybe this is just something he wants to do on his own. It's no biggie. Just let him have it and maybe someday he will ask to do it with you.

No drama! Bro love is adorable, IMO. Penis, plastic doesn't cut it. End of. I love how easily amused they get. Monkeys anyone? I love how my husband has to feel manly enough he will change out the weights for me but packs them on and expects me to lift it all anyway! And I love how little effort it takes to turn him on. I…

I would like to point out that someone can't be supportive to someone who always hide what's going on. She can tell you to vent less but isn't that what friends are for? She can't blame you for her issues of not being able to talk about them unless she feels that you are not trust worthy. Maybe ask her if she feels that…

I'm one of those people who does not like confrontation. I just recently completely stopped talking to someone because she was no longer worth any of my attention and when I looked back, I don't know why I put up with her for so long. She's a pathological liar and started to turn her lies to me about mundane stupid stuff.…

Because I'm sick of being fat. ;-)

Thanks guys! I'm over half way to my goal but this means more to me than being over the half way mark. :-)

I was told I have it after a cyst hemmoraged and ruptured. Man, was THAT painful! However, no other doctor has ever said that to me before. I had an ultrasound 6 weeks after the cyst episode and that's when I was told. I honestly believe it has to do with my weight. Never had a single problem when I was thin. At my…

I don't have any friends on here. Well, I have one but shes my friend outside of MPF. I'm one of those people who don't need friends to help motivate me and I'm way too busy with life and trying to lose weight to really try and make any more friends than I already have or motivate them. It's selfish in a way but I'm ok…

Awesome! I like the new you better as well! :-)
