29 5'6 250; add me :)

You can add me. 130-150lbs to lose depending on where I feel comfortable at. Ive lost weight twice before but due to my lack of staying on top of things Ive gained my weight back over the last few years. Im active on here as well.

If im being honest with myself; I have 150lbs to lose. I've got a "Reward Board"" for my weight loss and every 15lbs I reward myself with something. Seeing as how I just started again (and starting strong) I'll soon be getting my first reward which is some brand new facial products. To each their own but I have all kinds…

Any good dance programs you ladies are following that have good music? I'd love to learn how to dance better and burn off some weight at the same time. As for me, My car broke down recently so I've began to walk to work....Its an hour long walk about 2.3 miles and I do at home workouts at night from youtube but I would…

You can add me; feel free. I cant add people from my work computer

OP, Invest in a heart rate monitor. Wear it while you workout. Your calories burned will be more accurate this way. And I'd definitley log like everyone is saying. When I first came on here and lost the weight I logged EVERY SINGLE DAY, not on here though, I had a food journal at home, sometimes I'd upload whatever I ate…

Love that ^^^^

lol I totally get that! "You're not yourself when you're hungry" snickers knew what they were talking about.

Hey Kimny72, The first 2 times I was on here, no, carbs were never a concern for me I was just eating better and excersing. Smaller portions, caloric deficit as well. Prelogging is a great idea! thank you for that! And being hungry is the biggest thing I've been concerned about when it comes to low carb eating. We'll see…

My wedding goals are to fit my dress. the size only goes up so far then nothing, my budget is kind of tight so tailoring a big amount is out of the question. Im not so worried about a bikini but I would like to look nice in my wedding lingerie lol :wink: Also, I just want to feel good about myself and losing about 70lbs.…

Thank you ladies. I agree about the deadlines Courtney and Lauren I love your advice and outlook! I'll be setting my MFP now and doing my best :smile:

I just saw your story! Very touching. How did everything work out for you?

Thanks for all the replies, not pregnant, took a test. My clothes are tighter and my profile picture is old Im back to the before picture now lol. but anyway Ill definintley try a cleanse

Yes, I have snooped through someones medicine cabinet, maybe twice in my life. Yes, I have witnessed a crime, pretty much all the time when Im with certain people. Have you ever went through a drive-thru acting like you were on your phone so you didn't feel ashamed about what you were ordering?

makes great point

To be comfortable, confident and happy! To not be afraid to go up on stage and sing Kareokee because in my mind everyone will be too busy staring at my stomach and arms! To not be afraid to attempt to go on a roller coaster in case I couldn't fit (a humiliating thing my mom went through in front of a large crowd of…

I have a desk job. I will be working out before work and on days off. I put little to no activity because I haven't started working out yet. After I start I'll redo figure out what's working and what's not.

Truly Amazing! Much like you I quit cold turkey April 9th of this year, I only smoked cigarettes; I quit smoking weed 7yrs ago and it was very hard. Anyway, Im taking my next step into losing weight. My back is also starting to hurt after walking for 30 minutes to an hour or so. Your story is very well written and…

wow! would never guess thesepictures were the same people! can't wait to do my own!

still loving my calves!

I like to put away a little money away every now then to buy new clothes when Im all done. :smile:

You'll be getting new shoes soon, you look fabulous! wonderful job! you literally just helped me find my motivation again and Ive been struggling so hard lately trying to find it. Thank you!

alright thanks again :smile:

could be Lean Gains, could be not eating enough

Awesome. It set me at 1.1lbs per week? I'd like to lose 2lbs a week. I'll have more time to look at it when Im off work. But if Im reading it right thats what it said.

Thank you! one more question, do I ever change the 20% as I redo my calculations in the future? Sorry asking so many questions.

AWESOME! Thank you for the help, I want to actually lose just over 100lbs, should I change the 20%? My ticker isn't up to date yet. I want to lose about 120lbs.

All these suggestions are great! I've heard that one tsp of yellow mustard will kick start your metabolism, so I've been trying it out and it seems to be working well

LOL!!! Kcked me in the *kitten* right there!!

thanks everyone im doing a lot better today and yesterday, havent gone so off plan but have been eating more lean in l&g than i should.....baby steps
