I was going to say that your before pictures looked great (and they did) but your afters are SMOKING! Great job both of you!

Could be your sodium, even though it does not contain calories it will cause you to retain water which could throw off your weigh ins. For me your calorie intake looks good, I really struggle to eat my exercise calories and it does not seem to be able problem for me. GOOD LUCK!!

I totally agree! I have a lot of people that seemed to enjoy my weight gain and would frequently comment on it. I have lost almost 20lbs total and gone down 2 pant sizes and not one of these people has had anything to say about it. I am doing this for myself and that is the reason that I will succeed.

I saw this on the news this morning. It will definitely make me think twice about the lame excuses I make up when I don't want to exercise!

I agree. Lands End is the place to go. I have a tankini from there (last year) and it is cute and supportive!

I think you look fabulous from head to toe!

I LOVE Women's Health. The only downside for me is that I prefer to work out at home so I do not have access to some of the equipment in the workouts.

I totally agree. I would much rather eat a salad without dressing than with that junk!

Thank You! Free is one of my favorite things!

Okay, I don't really have any advice to help you with this. Please, please don't give up. Look at how much weight you have already lost. You can do this and you have already proven it. Good Luck!!

Thanks so much!! I will definitley check these out.

Water is definitely better for you than diet coke, but from my own experience, when I want a diet coke there is no substitute. This is my weakness too, so let me know how this works out.

YAY for you!! Sounds like you have been underestimating your awesomeness!!

I feel your pain, it took my husband 10 years to propose! I tried for years to "force" him into it but would have felt awful if I thought I made him do it. The last few years were especially hard, I had to ask myself "Would I rather be with him and not married or without him?" For me the answer was easy but the situation…

"Reply All" is killing me today too! I actually sent out an email stating: "Please do not include me on any email regarding where you are going for lunch or what you did this weekend." It probably wasn't nice but seemed better than what I actually wanted to say!

It's like training a dog. A stupid one. Haha, I think I'll hang that on my fridge!

Totally agree. I have been doing hot yoga and have never been sweatier. My husband calls it "man sweat".

Thank you for the awesome post. I have put 2 lbs back on in the past few weeks. It is so easy to get discouraged when the weight doesn't come off super fast. I will be reminding myself that moving slowly in the right direction is so much better than moving in the wrong direction.

Great job, you look smaller everywhere! Keep it up!

Way to go! You look great (cute outfit too)!

Wow , good for you. You look amazing and have accomplished so much.

LOL, I think most people want an answer that does not involve eating less/better and working out.

Wow, 31 lbs makes a huge difference. You look amazing, you should be so proud of yourself!

Good luck! It will be great to have other family members who are trying to achieve the same goal. If you need extra motivation you have come to the right place.

Great job, I think your smile says it all!

I am so sorry for what you are going through. I would just focus on your son/daughter and the wonderful life you will have with them if you take care of yourself. Our kids want to have fun with us and see us healthy and happy, no matter what age they are they know if their mom is happy or sad. Good Luck this weekend, we…

YAY for you, what a wonderful suprise!

Thanks so much for the link. I am trying to get back into Paelo after binging on junk for a couple years. I think this might be my new favorite site.
