My stats are 5'6", started at 235, and my CW is 184.6 :) 4 pounds in five weeks is awesome!! And maybe I'll ease into the increase.

AHHHHH Love it! My goal is to look adorable as Kaylee from Firefly this Halloween. I got the umbrella and just need the rest. You look so good and look so happy!

I just hit my 50 pound mark today. YAYAY to the 50 club!! :)

Last night I took a rest day. Trust me, that's a NSV. Sometimes I push myself too hard and get off track when my body rebels and needs a rest week, not just a day.

This morning my alarm went off for my early morning run. I got up, had my coffee, weighed myself, and since the number was good enough in my mind I climbed back into bed. But my body didn't want to rest, it wanted to run! I forced myself out of bed, put on my million sports bras and ran 3 miles before work. This is so big…

I don't wear panties when I go to the gym. I can't. It feels way too constrictive!!

I always used body wash in the shower, but now that I've got new muscles popping up everywhere, I've started to use a bar of soap instead. It's so cool feeling everything change gradually!

Dammit Charlene, now we have to take the picture again...

My boyfriend is a marine and stationed in North Carolina, so I'm hopping on a plane to go see him for a long weekend! We got a cabin on the beach. V day night will be spent drinking beer, eating chicken wings, screwing with Star Wars playing in the background, and then post coitus Call of Duty playing/cuddling. The perfect…

You totally made me snort my coffee everywhere. hahahahaha

I'm wearing a size 12 pair of pants to work today. Last time this year I couldn't fit into my size 18 pants. Granted, the size 12 are a little tight around the waist, but I'm buttoned and comfortable.

Last night at roller derby practice the coach made all of us jump the apex...which means you have to jump about two feet in the air, avoid getting hit by any blockers, then land on your skates inbounds...and I've always believed that big girls don't jump! Well...last night I landed it EVERY TIME I TRIED IT! Holy crap I…

My sister is getting married in October and I'm a maid of honor. My goal is to be at my goal weight by then, which is losing another 38 pounds. I want to get on it right now though, I don't want to get lazy and realize the wedding is right around the corner and I'm still overweight :) Start early!!

I just started running in the morning. I only go two days a week in the morning; the other days I go at night. It's my trial run, to ease into it. I might get up to 6 days a week going early, or just stick with two days in the morning and the rest evening. Find out what works for you.

I'm motivated by my roller derby team. We have a travel team that you have to try out for. I made the travel team this year, but I need to STAY there, which means pushing myself harder. Also, my boyfriend is a marine and deployed...I want to be 30 pounds lighter when he comes home.

My screen name is my roller derby name.

Superbowl? What's the superbowl? :neutral_face: I'm not a football fan.

The only thing I don't log are my cups of tea in the afternoon. But I don't put anything in it. I would log my honey or anything that has calories if I put in it. But then again, I even log my cough drops when I'm sick. Because if I don't hold myself accountable for everything it'll get out of control.

A year ago today I was 235 pounds, and I couldn't run for a minute straight. I had just graduated as a fresh meat on my roller derby team and got to start hitting the vets! Now I have a few 5k's under my belt (I've run for 35 minutes STRAIGHT! that blew my mind) and I'm 188 pounds. I just got placed on the charter (travel)…

We had tryouts for the travel team for our roller derby league...AND I MADE IT!! I've worked so hard this past year on getting in shape, it has helped out my game so much!

Thank you for the warning of the scale fluctuation! I know that would freak me out when I get to that level. :)

My roommate came to me for advice for healthy eating. I don't think he'll follow it...but he's impressed with how far I've come and wanted to know how I did it! I gave someone advice on how to eat! The old me that would only ever eat McDonald's breakfasts and have Chinese takeout for dinner is shocked right now...

I do! I play for a team in the Chicagoland area. My derby name is Boobie Trap. It's the reason I started actually paying attention to my fitness and nutrition. And you can see the difference from a year ago. I love how I have two pictures of me doing the exact same thing, but smaller, more powerful, and better form!

I'm in the exact same situation as you. I'm flying out to see my marine boyfriend for Valentine's day. Trust me, your boyfriend will be so happy to see you he won't even notice if you are 10 pounds heavier or lighter. And when you come home, change your habits to drop those 10 pounds in a healthy way so they'll stay off.

personally I love anything from Hungry Girl. What I love about her meals is that they are huge portions, because the majority of the meal is veggies. It tricks your brain into thinking it's eating more, but you're just getting more veggies. I love it. My dinners are usually around 300 calories.

I'm just now 30, and halfway through my weight loss goal! the end of 2014 was my year, but 2015 is going to be 10 times what last year was! You'll be amazed at what you can do if you put your mind to it.

My go to treat is Deep Chocolate Vitatops. I love chocolate and baked goods, and this just hits the spot for only 100 calories.

I steam it with half a cup of water for 10 minutes and it gets the same texture as noodles. So I get a ton of veggies and cut out cals and carbs and still can eat noodle like food. I love it!
