I do the shoelace thing...I like the idea of getting an extra key made so you don't have to take it off of your keyring all the time.

Wow, you look great!!! Keep up the good work!

Someone once told me I looked like a person in a movie...a transvestite. Awesome.

Wow, great job, you look fantastic! I also misread your stats and thought you were at goal. You look much younger too.

There is no acceptable substitute, in my opinion!!! I got so bad that I was drinking close to a 2 liter a day of pepsi. I didn't allow myself any beverages other than water for about 2 weeks, and now I don't feel addicted to Pepsi. I had headaches for several days from the lack of caffeine, but I got over it. I would…

That is fantastic!!! Great job!

I don't judge because we shop at different stores sometimes for different things. I buy produce at one store because its cheaper and SO MUCH BETTER quality than at the other store that has better prices on non produce items. When I'm shopping at the store I get produce from, my cart looks awesome. When I'm shopping at the…

Definitely a difference, you're doing great!

I am one of the few who ever has anything good to say about this! I had a hard time eating healthy in the first place, so I used Alli as a behavior modifier. I knew that I couldn't eat foods high in fat (the ones that I was having trouble staying away from on my own) but Alli gave me the incentive to stay away--if I…

Thanks all, I really appreciate all the opinions. I especially love the different suggestions on how to get a good bike for less. I think I may take my time and look for an outdoor bike and eventually get a trainer to convert it to an indoor bike in bad weather or when I am with my sons. That sounds like the best of both…

Thanks to all for the feedback. I know I can do it, just wanted to know how others got there. I have some marathoners in the family, but none have ever been fat before, so that puts a different spin on it. I'm starting C25K on Monday (hopefully the weather will cooperate!!!) and I just can't wait. Looks like I have some…

I love her DVDs, I never thought I could sweat so hard just walking in my house!!!

Awesome read, thanks for posting!!!

Awesome, thanks for the link. He happens to live in the same city I do! I really need to sleep now, but I bookmarked the site for further reading.

I did 100! That's it for me though!

Thank you all for the suggestions! I will have to print this for next time I eat pasta!

I'd get a pool and a fully stocked home gym. Then, when I was all gorgeous and buff, I'd make sure there was no extra saggy skin hanging around.

I tried to show my 4 year old how to do a push up today, and I just couldn't do a regular one. I got in a couple of girl pushups, but those kill my knees. One day I'll show him a real man push up, and about that time he'll also be able to say, "Wow, mom has some guns!"

My form of girl pushups are desk push ups...well, kitchen counter pushups. I know they make a difference though, and I'll keep at them until one day when I'll be able to do a man push up!

I don't like breakfast foods, so I generally eat regular foods for breakfast. I usually eat some sort of leftovers. Otherwise it's egg whites, toast, and a piece of fruit.

Oh jeez, I'm the big girl here too! My weight as of a couple of days ago was 280, but my scale died after my 4 year old used it as a trampoline. I have a new one coming UPS tomorrow (today) so I'll get you an official weight before Monday.

You guys are awesome for even trying this!!! I don't think I'd be able to lift my arms after that. I still have to do my girl pushups in sets of 15!

Today is day 6.

Thanks for all the suggestions, there are some really good ideas here!!! I appreciate the help so I can still eat my pasta. :)

What kind of veggies taste good in pasta? I've never had it other than with chunks of tomato in it. I don't eat any meat, not even fish. I guess I didn't mention it, but when I mean more filling, I guess I mean I want to bulk it up so I don't have to have as much of the actual noodles...

I have started this twice in the past but never finished. The first time I got pregnant and had NO energy, the second time I fell into a major depression that made it difficult to get out of bed, let alone run!!! I made it 4 weeks the first time, I think 6 the second time. My best advice is: Start out slow. If it's way too…

I'm interested, but totally afraid to commit, especially with as hot as it is outside. I really want to do this though. Okay, I'm in!!! Will you post reminders?

Well, I had to do day 3 and 4 together yesterday. Boy, did that suck!!! But I just did my day 5 burpees, and my form was a tiny bit better. Plus, it was a bit easier to do them in quick succession. They're still not pretty, I'm still not quick, but I'm happy with the improvement!

I sweat a lot, and pretty easily too. I get very embarrassed by it, because I don't even have to exert myself very much and I start sweating. I know it's not just me though, my mom said my dad used to sweat a lot (thanks, Dad!) and both of my sons sweat a lot. One of the little girls in my son's preschool class even…

All I can say is...WOW!!!
