bump...i haven't bought new jeans in ages (trying to get 100% back to pre-prego weight), but the list here of places to try is great :) i have a few pairs of silver jeans (buckle or maurices) that fit well and are a good length for petite as well as a pair of older american eagle jeans that i LOVE :) i am 5'3.5'' and…

i try to get a balance of 'good' and 'bad' because real life is a balance...my rate of loss is slower than some, but i have been able to lose...it is all about what works best for you...i need regular sweets to keep me from binging :)

i have an 8 month old and though i have lost most of my pregnancy weight, i am still carrying a bit more than i'd like in my belly as well...running really helped me to slim my legs back to pre-baby shape and it also helped get rid of a lot of the belly pudge...i am part-way through the 30 day shred and i have noticed a…

i am no expert, but i feel like a lot of the time people set themselves unrealistic goals/standards as they are losing weight so when they meet their ultimate goal and they try to go back to 'regular' eating, they aren't able to reasonably maintain so they gain the weight back (and then some) i am not a perfect eater or…

i became a mommy for the first time this past march at 29...i wanted to have my first by the time i was 30 :) i made it with time to spare...i think to a certain degree being a super young mom is sensationalized in the US...but to each their own :)

please don't let gaining weight scare you from getting pregnant!!!! you will gain weight...and likely more than you plan...but it will come off!!! if you put your mind to it and take care of your body during and after pregnancy you can shed the pounds :) my daughter was born 29 weeks ago tomorrow and just this morning i…

feel free to add me...i am 5'3.5 and hoping to get back down to 129ish :) i totally understand the stress in your life (my hubs is a kindergarten teacher too)...but adding even a little bit of exercise would help a TON with losing the weight and helping with stress :) i did jillian michael's 30 day shred and a few others…

i am 5'3.5 (132.5ish lbs) and i am set at 1510 per day (0.5/week) at this point...my ultimate goal is to get to 129 and more toned, but i am close enough at this point that it can be a slower scale movement and keep me happy :) i am still breastfeeding though so i add another 300 calories for that and i almost always eat…

amazing transformation!!!!! :)

i do weigh myself both at night and in the morning also :) not daily, but i do like to be aware of the fluctuations that happen just by the course of living :) however, i log my pre-shower weight rather than my night weight :) depending on how hard i exercise and how much/what i eat my weight can fluctuate up to 5lbs per…

i am 5'3.75 and my goal is to maintain around 130...i have a medium frame and i carry my weight relatively well...i am 132.5 today and if i stayed put here for a while but was more toned i would be a happy girl :)

904 days consecutively :) i lost 15 lbs (jan 2010-april 2011), then got married gained a couple back (april 2011-june 2011), then got pregnant and gained a little less than 45lbs...i gave birth to my beautiful healthy baby girl march 2012 and in the 6 months since she was born i have lost 39.5 lbs :)

i was able to run for the first 20+ weeks of my pregnancy, but after that i used a lindsay brin pregnancy workout dvd and a gaiam prenatal yoga dvd while i was pregnant...both were broken up according to trimester and even though they weren't as strenuous as what i was used to prior to being pregnant, i would strongly…

i've got a bunch :) original SW: 143 (1/2010) LW: 126.5 (wedding day 4/2011) pre-prego weight: 131 (6/2011) delivery day weight: 174.6 (3/2012) CW: 135 (9/2012) UGW: 129-130 i'm 5'3.5 :)

i am 5'3.5 and currently 135...i would like to get back down to around 129-130 ideally...i have a medium frame so i carry it pretty well (i wear a size 4 or 6)...i had my daughter in march and i have lost 40 lbs since delivery...i could be content to stay 135 or under, but i was happiest with my body closer to 130 :) now i…

you look fabulous!
