Always check with your doctor before taking up running or any high-intensity activity...but for motivation, I point you to this video: http://youtu.be/8SbXgQqbOoU Enjoy! And good luck!

I bought it as it was raved about on almost every diet website known to man. I used it one morning on my English muffin and HATED it. I couldn't even eat the rest of my breakfast because it was so gross. I've been sticking with Peter Pan's Whipped Creamy peanut butter...clocking in at 140 calories. At least it's tasty.

I do a few things to change up things for breakfast... Breakfast parfait 3 strawberries, sliced 1 container light vanilla yogurt 5 walnuts, crushed 1 tablespoon Cool Whip Free Take a small glass and place crushed walnuts in the bottom. Add the yogurt and then the sliced strawberries. Stir together to mix. Top off with one…

I have. A major difference! It's amazing...considering I don't have a lot of time (I work full-time and go to school full-time). And both of the videos worked very well for me. ~Gael~

I lead a very, very busy life...but I love yoga. So I do the 10 minutes in the morning DVDs. I have 2 different ones, each with 5 different routines that I rotate through. Each routine lasts 10 minutes. Try:…

As far as bacon goes these days... I actually buy Morningstar Veggie Bacon. It's delicious! Two strips is only 60 calories.

Arewethereyet...your story was very moving! ((HUGS))

Born in Minneapolis, MN. Grew up in New York. Moved to Birmingham, AL. Then came to Southern Indiana...spit and you hit Louisville, KY. ~Gael~

I'm so guilty of the "fat talk" so when my friend sent this to me...I saw it needed to change! :) Glad you love it. And do pass it on! :) ~Gael~

A friend shared this with me. I thought I'd pass it along! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKPaxD61lwo ~Gael~

You're an inspiration! Congrats on all your heard work. You look amazing!

I hardly eat out anymore. Mostly because I can't afford it. Of course, in two weeks I leave for vacation...so we'll see what I can manage.

WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!! That's awesome!! Congratulations!! :)

That is awesome!!! :) Congratulations! ~Gael~

*gives a big wave* Glad you're here!!!

Not often. I can't really afford to. ~Gael~

It is another day tomorrow. You're right. And thanks...that's what I needed to hear before I depressed myself by looking at that number. It's crazy. I wouldn't think it'd be that much. But a part of me wishes my roommate had paid attention to me...and gotten me the salad. I didn't think it was that big of a deal at the…

I was going to get a salad for dinner tonight. But my roommate ended up ordering us both Cheese Spuds at McAlisters. 930 CALORIES!!! WTF??!! Something tells me I just put on those 3 pounds I lost. I think I'll go cry now. ~Gael~

:brokenheart: My heart breaks for you, honey! I'm so sorry. No one should have to bury a child. No one should lose a child. I think a lot of this is stress on both parts. Counseling may help. You may want to ask him about it. Talk out what you can. Communication is key. I'm thinking about you. ((HUGS))

I've been stuck...absolutely STUCK at having just lost 2 pounds. For over a month, that's where it stayed. And today...I was down another pound. I couldn't believe it. Progress! It was along road. I only have seven more pounds to go! I can't wait! :) ~Gael~

Thank you, Princess Laundry!! I couldn't figure out how to get the pics to work! ((HUGS)) ~Gael~

Okay...see if this works... Before: <img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/gaelbrady/Random/me.jpg"> Now: <img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/gaelbrady/Random/gypsy01.jpg"> That was taken a few days ago. ~Gael~

I'd agree with everyone here...check with your doctor. CONGRATULATIONS!! ~Gael~

I'm almost down another pound. This has been a long plataue for me. But I can feel my body starting to kick in again. WOO! ~Gael~

Amazing difference! WOW!! You look great!!!!! ~Gael~

If it's anyting like my mom's scale, you could reset it to include the container. Just zero it out and then add the food. THey didn't show if they did that or not, but I'm assuming they did. ~Gael~

A friend of mine sent this to me. I thought I'd share it because I wasn't even aware of this: http://avidityfitness.net/fat-loss-tips/ ~Gael~

This is so sweet! Happy Anniversary to both of you!! Here's to many more wonderful years together. It's so great to see a couple so much in love after all these years. :flowerforyou: ~Kiki~

I didn't know there was a blog option. I love to blog...so I'll look into it! :)
