I'm lucky, my 3 year old likes grilled chicken and veggies. Our family favorite: 6 oz rotini pasta 12 oz chicken breast 1 bell pepper 1-1.5 heads broccoli, bite sized pieces 1 Philidelphia cooking cream black pepper to taste Cook the rotini according to the box. In a separate pan, sauté chicken, pepper, broccoli. Add black…

I ran a 5k 70 pounds over weight after completing C25K the first time. I was slow but I did it. You should have no problem at all.

I'm sure everyone is different. I would love to run 4-5 miles every day but my body just won't have it. I do a long run (7-10 miles) once a week and shorter runs (4-5 miles) 3 or 4 times a week. I try to have 1 true rest day a week and the other days I do DVD workouts. I'd much rather run but I really need the strength…

I still have another 20-25 pounds to go...

Congrats!! I just bought my first pair of size 8 jeans since middle school. I started MFP in August in a size 16 at 195 pounds. 210 days later, size 8 and 149 pounds. 25 more to go.

Two tires and a Chihuahua...

I haven't done any full body shots in a while but here's what I have.

I made it for the first time last week. I made it like spanish rice and it was great! Here's a link to the recipe I used: http://www.yummly.com/recipe/external/Spanish_style-Quinoa-Allrecipes

Congrats, that's awesome! 5k in 30 is one of my goals, too. I'm still about 2 minutes off that time. I'm also working on 10K in an hour. I've got 6 minutes to go on that one.

Running is my primary cardio but I try to strength train a few times a week with DVDs like Biggest Loser Boot Camp, Power Sculpt and 30DS. I started with a Couch To 5K and I'm now up to 8 mile runs. I'm still super slow but I keep setting new goals for myself and crushing them! My next goal is to finish a 5 mile race in…

I'm not very "busty" but I lost a LOT from my boobs. At 195 I was a 36D and at 152 I'm in a sad, little 36B. I sure do miss my old boobies!!

I just re-did my side by side face shots recently

I haven't done a full body side by side but here's my face.

I started about the same. I joined MFP at 194 and 5'4". After 6 months I'm down almost 40 pounds and have 25-30 left to go. OMG- sorry for the enormous pictures!

July 2012 - 195 pounds Februry 2013 - 157 pounds

It used to be under by 35 pounds, now it is over by 3 pounds. That's the most accurate it has been in 7 years...

4 more yesterday

I do a few that are gender neutral. I love all the Biggest Loser workouts(20-50 min) and Bob Harper's Beginners Weight Loss Transformation (45 min).

I'm in. I just checked and I did 53 miles jogging last month. 2/1 - 4.15 miles 2/2 - 6.65 miles 2/3 - 0

I don't know why these are so huge, sorry!

That has happened to me too. I went nuts for a day and a half for my birthday a few weeks ago. I ended up losing almost 2 pounds and breaking a 10 day holding streak.

I HATE the way my face looks now. I'm so sad about it. I've worked so hard to lose this weight and still have 30 pounds to go and I hate to look at pictures of myself now. I look so wrinkled, old and tired. Everyone else on here looks so much younger and healthier in their after pictures. :-(

I need to do that with the dress from my sister's wedding! Thanks for sharing. You look great!!

Or you want to wear a HRM during nookie to see how many calories you burned...

Wow!! Great job! I'm keeping on old pair of jeans just to take that picture some day.

I swear I feel taller! I think it's because my legs aren't touching all the way to my knees.

I really want to do a mommy and me photo shoot with my daughter (3). I'm always behind the camera and the few pictures we do have of the two of us I hate the way I look. A friend of a friend specializes in mommy & me photos and is SUPER expensive. I'm hoping I can book her next fall.

Interesting post! I've lost about 30 of the 70 I'd like to lose. I've always been mostly hips and *kitten* but after my kiddo I started gaining back, arm and face fat. The first 15 pounds I lost came off my face, arms and boobs. I didn't lose a pant size until 20 pounds. At 32 pounds, I've still only lost the one size. I'm…

I'm 5'4" and have gone from 194 to 162 since late August. I still have another 30 to go but I've slacked off lately. My next mini goal is to be at -35 by my 35th birthday. That's 3 pounds in less than 2 weeks. I diet much better when my hubs is out of town and he's been home a long time.
