Hey! I'm currently 200. Started at 210, which is the highest I've ever been. My goal is to get back to 145. Slowly but surely chugging away at it. Feel free to add me :)

I totally get it! With my last baby, I had such bad HG I actually lost 15 lbs during the pregnancy. Then I gained FIFTY after he was born. I'm working on getting back on track!! Ive cut out all drinks (except coffee and water... and Wine on the weekend, cause well I have kids and it's needed some times!) I cut out mindless…

You can add me as well

I almost always let him have a say, he's 3 and usually helping me in the kitchen anyways. I have no problem making multiple meals though, I grew up incredibly picky and understand not always liking what everyone else wants. My son usually picks healthy choices though yesterday he asked for quinoa, salmon and carrots for…

I have a mix of music, although I find if it's too upbeat I start running far too fast to maintain! It's a lot of upbeat country and some rock/alt songs that keep me going.

I don't bring anything other than my phone, which is usually in a pocket. If I'm bringing my son along I put everything in the stroller though

Almonds or trail mix Apple (sometimes with a bit of peanut butter) Melba toast Fibre 1 bar Rice cake

I have zumba 2 for the Wii. I love it, as I can't afford to always go to a class. It's a good workout, but I find its a lot easier than an actual class.

Not really "on the go" but I love asparagus, dipped in egg white and breaded with either ww panko, or Italian breadcrumbs and baked til crispy.

For me, it's running with a stroller (which if I want to run anytime between 8am and 8pm I have to take my 3 yr old with me) and the lack of being able to use your arms really hinders me. I run way faster/longer when I can go without pushing a stroller. I also have very ltitle cartilage in my knees and hips which used to…

You have to fly or take a 2 hr. ferry to get off of the island. It rains all year long. (Vancouver Island, BC)

As someone who preprofessionally danced for all of my childhood/teenage years for 50+ hrs. a week, I can tell you it's all about your body type. I never had the ballerina body. That being said, I was in amazing shape. Ballet is all about control of your body. At all times your tummy is sucked in, butt in and down, neck…

For me personally, I do strength training every morning for 20-30 minutes. I do zumba or circuit training on weekdays in the afternoon, or yoga on the weekends, then I run 3-5 nights a week. The weight is melting off. I don't like taking a day off, but I usually limit my weekends to yoga and weights.

I guess I'm a week ahead, but that's ok. Just day Day 2 of week 1. Was such a great run despite it being 32*C. Everytime we switched to walking within seconds I was wanting it to be running time again, I'm be doing M/W/F as of next week... possibly an extra day or two just cause I love it so much haha.

Definitely. Very handsome :)

Jamie - love the 2nd one, you are really pretty!

Jessigirl, 4th one in I think... with you and your kid, super cute!

Ours are an hour too, both the deep water and regular ones.

Hey guys! I'm Michelle and I'm 24. I used to be a runner, doing 5-10k runs but since gaining weight, started smoking again (which I'm going to try and quit again) and slacking in the exercise department, I'm ready to get back to running :) I've got another 30-35 lbs. to go

Wow! That must feel amazing. You look beautiful :) Congrats on all of your hard work!

I never thought I would lift weights, and now I love weight lifting! (although I'm still a beginner, it is such a powerful feeling!)

I'm in, I'd love to lose 25-30 by Christmas :)

Salmon Broccoli Asparagus Extra virgin olive oil The ingredients for my protein shake Melba toast Crispy minis

^ this! Lettuce wraps with all of your usual sandwich fillings. They are nice and refreshing.

I drink between 5-8L a day. Pros: I feel great, less hungry, less bloated etc. Cons: I'm pretty sure I pee every 20 minutes!

I wear what I want (even pajamas if I'm having one of those days) but then again I'm a stay at home mom and do daycare for another child. However at my old job, an financial planning company, some of the advisors would walk in looking like they were going to a club, rhinestones, glitter, microminis, etc. or the complete…

For our household; me, hubby and 3 yr. old son, we usually spend $200/week. But that takes into consideration the fact that my husband buys an insane amount of "crap" (cookies, chips, candy, processed meats, etc.) for himself. We usually buy large packs of meat, so we only buy meat maybe once a month, with the exception of…

I put 1/2 a banana, handful of berries and some almond milk. Yum
