Good morning ladies! Happy Tuesday!!! I have been crazy this past week or so and surely not on track like I've needed to be and deserve every lb I gained, which was about 4.... :( crazy that one week of being really stupid can make you gain 4 lbs... I think alot of it's fluid though b/c my hands are swolen and I feel so…

I'll weigh again tomorrow and report what it said as my wi....I didn't like it today at all... hah... I have been sick and felt awful.... Going to push myself to go to Zumba and hope I feel better with that.. My fav. clean meal... maybe grilled pork chops, rice and tomatoes (my fav food ever!! ) and green beans... I also…

Hi everyone! I'm a little behind on the posts...been a crazy couple of days! :) My emotional low was def back in april when I looked at my daughters birthday pictures... I was so embarassed...and didn't realize until that point how far I'd let myself go... I hated to look at myself in the mirror and I realized that at her…

question of the day.... One of my favorite quotes is "do or do not you will there is no try" from Yoda off of star wars....it's true... you're either going to do it or not do it.... w/ weight loss trying does nothing you just have to go full in and do it.... I was one... and still am to an extent at times... one to make a…

Guys you all motivate me so much to keep going! I added this thread to my favorites and keep going back to it.... You all have done such an amazing job!!! It encourages me to keep going even though i've had a stupid behind 3 month plateau w/ the scales! :)

I'm right there w/ you...after breastfeeding my baby for 9 months and losing almost 65 lbs since I was pregnant with her... my girls are hating it! I invested in an awesome bra from Belk, found it on sale w/ a coupon, got it for like 20 bucks, and my sister sent me a text the other day after seeing my before/after pics I…

I am completely amazed and inspired by everyone!! Keep up the fabulous work!! :) I haven't lost but 31 lbs.... and for the past 3 months have been at an almost standstill w/ my weight... but during those 3 months I've lost over 12 inches... but have increased my exercising alot more.... :)

LW 177.9 Today's Weight: 175.5 Yay! But I still am SO sick and tired of that number! I have been between 175 and 182 for over 2 months...it goes back and forth fluctuating and it's griping my ever loving nerves! The past few weeks I have really bumped up my exercising... but in doing so I think my mindset has been well I'm…

It's taken me 6 months... but actually it only took me about 4 or so months to lose 30, and then the last two I've been STUCK! ughhh!!! losing alot of inches during that time though.... I'm eating 1200 cal's a day, plus eating my exercise cals back...and exercising 3-4 times a week, doing mostly cardio and Zumba.... good…

WOW!! Awesome job! You look beautiful!!! :)

WOW!!!! WTG!!! You look incredible!!!! I love how happy you look in the pic holding the pumpkin... :)

I think to each their own...honestly... I am not an advocate of gastrci bypass just because I haven't ever seen any positive outcomes of it personally... a friend of my moms ended up shortly after hers passing away from complications...another girl ended up losing all of her hair that I knew that had it done...etc...and so…

Hi ladies! A quick post b/c I am at work... I was at 179 this week...up almost 3 lbs from last week.. I have been teeter tottering for like 2 months now and I am so sick of it.... this week I commit to exercising every night but 1... this will be difficult as my church is in revival this week and so trying to work, get a…

...where is the one area you struggle in most when it comes to your weight loss journey? Eating late at night.... we stay extremely busy and trying not to eat late...or getting home and being exhausted so eating some quick processed food or eating out...a lot of times we will grab something to eat on the way home from…

You look incredible!

Sorry I'm behind with the questions work has been crazy lately! I have the c-section pouch too!!! I hate my stomach so would like to manipulate that....also have no behind so I'd like to add a little bit back there.... just to make it more of an omlet rather than a pancake lol... a little roundness would be nice :) 2nd…

absoultely amazing!!! Great job!!!! You look wonderful!!!!! What an inspiration!!!!!!

holy cow! you look amazing! and I'm jealous as all get out lol.... how tall are you? B/c I weighed in at 176 today and ain't no way I'm even close to looking like you do now.... you def inspire me to keep going!

Such a difficult feat you have overcome... and from what I can see in the pics you look so much healthier... You can do this... maybe you should if you feel like your are close to relapsing start seeing a therapist if you aren't already..find out if there are local eating disorder thearpy groups at your local gym or…

Amazing job!!! You look great!!! keep it up!! You got this!!! :)

This week I've done ok.... I haven't exercised as much as I was doing... i didn't exercise yesterday and we went out to eat...although I was only 143 calories over... I was disappointed in myself... also had to be put on meds for my hr...blah! but hoping that helps drop it down some... it's been extremely high when i've…

I want to be happy with me.. I want to be confident with who I am... feel comfortable in my own skin as a pp said... also money, a nicer house.... to be a stay at home mom... I could think of alot of things... but to be happy with myself in my own body would be awesome!

I agree with this! I used to not eat breakfast...hence why I ended up 200 lbs... now that I eat breakfast I do much better with balanching the rest of my meals.... I think to each their own, but I don't think for a lot of reasons what you are doing is healthy but that's just my opinion!

thanks for the input.... It may be worth noting that I haven't ever really gotten nauseous or dizzy w/ my heart rate until this past week when it was up to 189-191.... but it was also excessively hot in the room we were in also which may have had something to do w/ it.... either way I'm going to see my Dr. and just see…

Hi ladies... I'm going to try this again... I tried earlier today posting an answer to yesterdays question and it froze up and then said the server was down and I lost my post... BOO! Ok so my support system...is all in all great! My hubby is very supportive.... he doesn't always tell me he's noticing that I'm losing…

Cheese.... pasta..... cheese and pasta together? lol does that count as one? I love both soooo much!!

Hi ladies... to answer todays question..... It's confession time.... I'm so frustrated so I'm going to vent here.... and then I'm going to kick my own *kitten* for being so stupid.... last week at our first weighin for the challenge... I was up 2 lbs from my previous wi....so I started at 179...now mind you I have been…
