I agree with Gap for some transitional jeans. They have ones that rise higher at the love handles and back to hide the extra! :)

I, too, sometimes work 10 and 12 hour shifts. Here's what I do: when I'm heading down the hall, I run! It really gives me great exercise. I also choose to squat down to pick things up if I drop something or if I need something off of a low shelf. That's the best way I can fit exercise into a busy work day, get it in while…

Glad you're here! :D

Hi! I'm Serasha (on both forums) and I've been trying to live healthier since I had my daughter almost a year and a half ago. I didn't gain much during my pregnancy, but afterward I suffered some post-partum depression when I failed at breastfeeding and put on almost 30 pounds. I've lost 19 total so far and 14 of those…

You are so beautiful! You have a great smile and your skin looks amazing. You look so much more feminine now! These photos made me so happy I'm actually tearing up! *hug*

I thought maybe, MAYBE I was 34" at the biggest. Ouch. But just a few weeks later I measured again and I was a few inches down! :D You'll love seeing the inches drop…

Great job! I'm a graduate, too! Are you going to do the bridge to 10k? I'm thinking of starting that soon. :D

Hi there! I know what you mean when you say you get really sad. I feel like that all the time, too. Every day when it is time to get dressed I look at some of my old cute clothes and I get so mad that I can't wear them right now that I rip them off the hangers and pile them up on the floor. Then i find the baggiest thing…
