cook in some extra virgin olive oil it will boost the cals without making you eat more just add it to the food your already eatting ( I drizzle it over my veggies and roast them in the oven yummy ) peanut butter grab a spoon and take a few cals add up fast and you don`t need to eat alot at all any kind of nut

Unless the first day falls on a Sunday I exercise and exercise hard ( Sunday`s are my rest days ) and actualy exercise has made my monthly shorter and MUCH less cramps

i have about 25 that I still want to drop and its taking alot longer now just broke threw a 4month platue finaly and seeing some progress again thank goodness hope it keeps going

not sure if my body is really bikini ready but I was excited that it showed up in the mail today so had my 5 year old snap a quick pic :) its athena brand

first weigh in for me = 168.2 Great start in my opinion :)

your not eatting enough up your cals more check your BMR ( example as a woman and 5foot 5inches tall my bmr is 1519 cals just to live you as a male are eatting less than I as a woman need to live dose that make sence for a man to need less? )

45 pounds lost in 1year and one months time as of this morning ( I had a good 4month platue when I hit 170 pounds and its just now starting to loose again :) )

6weeks after the birth of our first daughter she was preterm and I was a wreck after her birth currently no more than a few days between

Eat a single serving and move onto vegies ( single serving for the chips I normaly eat is about 15 chips and thats plenty IMO so I`m normaly good after that and yes I was a big chip eatter back in the day lol but now een I just don`t crave them anymore and if they do catch my eye the single serving works just fine )

curious how you ladies that put it in your bra don`t damage it? I Sweat!! and when I say sweat I mean there is a pool on the ground at the gym I need to clean up before I leave and my Bra is wet enough I can wring it out as is my shirt and most of my pants.

I use my arm band and love it

I don`t tell anyone that I`m counting cals and if they ask how I`ve lost my weight I show them my gym card normaly shuts them up. Even my hubby dosen`t really know he knows I`m on MFP but not really sure what I do other than chat and post my workouts lol

^^^^ this when I started out at the gym back at my starting weight of 213 pounds no one looked at me while i was walking around or working out NOW at 169 I feel like I have eyes on me constantly from both genders

Here's the pattern: SW (start weight, optional) 213 CW (current weight) 169.4 GW (goal weight for the month of June) 165 or less if possible UTG: (Ultimate goal weight) somewhere in the 140 range I will weigh in on Tuesdays

great work I am right about at your starting weight and just started lifting heavy two months ago and already have seen a great improvement as well :) I love your photo idea I may need to start taking a weekly photo

its water weight from changeing things up its common drink some more water and re-weigh in a few days you`ll be fine. Also do make sure you eat most to all those cals back that you burned

great post and yes there are men out there like this I am married to one of them :)

bump so i can read later

if they don`t leave a note with the request I don`t except them but if they leave a message then I normaly do :)

I`m glad you posted this I was just looking for a top to go with the new bottoms I ordered and I think that style would be perfect and well as a mom that also nursed two little kids my girls could use the boost lol :)

I`ve only read a few pages and its been well over 10years since I`ve gone on a first date lol (married now) IMO the person that asks should pay. If its a mutual date set up both kinda ask at the same time then she should offer but a Man IMO would respectfuly tell her that he has it taken care of. When I started dateing my…

I actully burn quite abit pushing my double jogging stroller while jogging ( 70ish pounds of kids since there are two little ones in the stroller). the burn really is quite different each time I go out and the effort I put into the jog but its normaly almost double what I would burn just jogging alone.

feel free to add me I have two little girls of my own plus I care for a baby boy 12+hours a day :)

I have gotten stopped a number of times and I always help them out not a biggie at all it only takes a second or two to explain directions (most of the time they are really close to where they are trying to go just new to the area and missed it) plus I live in the city so its pretty common

I recently turned 32 years young. I am happily married to my best friend and together we have two little girls Katelin born May 22 , 2005 and Tessa born March 22 , 2007 ( and yes both are natural labors and they really are exactly 22months apart to the day). I LOVE to knit and can knit most anything. Also love to travel ,…

its still showing up for me about 9 posts above this one you made ETA-- that I just bought a new suit online today so I`ll have another pic to once it comes in the mail I`m excited now its been awhile since I`ve ordered a new two piece :)

I am still working to get my body ready for the suit in my progress tracker below but this is my current suit taken yesterday while I was cleaning the pool lol ( pretty sure hubby was trying for a cleavage shot lol I wasn`t aware of the camera till after he took the pic hence the cleaning face )

your right on about the workout being a cross road. I love my kettlebell`s and I use Bob Harper inside out method kettlebell sculpted body dvd and its a GREAT workout

While I don`t consider myself small at a 36D I don`t think I could ever go without a good sports bra even if I ever got down to a smaller cup size. Plus my regular bra`s are $$$ I think the last one I ordered from fredricks was 58.00 plus shipping not something I want to sweat all over and get smelly at the gym kwim.
