WOW! Awesome

Sloppy Keto - I love it!!! That's me - gotta have a treat and pizza. You look awesome btw- congrats on all your hard work

I think I get what you are saying. I carry most of my fat on my legs. When I weighed 110 I had my body fat calculated at a gym and they measured my legs 3 times because they didn't believe what they were seeing. It's genetic and I hate it. That being said, all I can do is maintain a proper body weight and do strength…

I'm 62 and starting again. I'm going to WDW in Sept for 2 weeks and I need to be down 10 lbs by then.

I had the exact same thing happen to me. Weighed, measured and logged everything that went into my mouth. Then I was introduced to Intermittent fasting. Broke my plateau, got to goal (125 lb at 5'2"). Had to stop fasting because I didn't want to lose any more. Before IF I ate 1200 calories/day. I did a 5:2 fast pattern,…

Get a water filter. It'll take out the weird tastes for the most part

Semper Fi Marine! Thank you for your service

You are amazing! You also inspire me. 2 years ago I ran my first marathon at 60. 1.5 years ago I stopped running after 5 close family deaths within a few months. It's time to get back off the couch and back at it. Thank you for sharing your accomplishment!

WOW - you look amazing!

I know CICO is important and I can only share my experience. I was eating 1200 calories/day (or 8,400 calories/week). I measured and weighed my food so I feel like I was as accurate a count as possible. I got stuck on a plateau. 3 weeks I didn't lose an ounce. A MD I work with talked to me about IF - he is a HUGE proponent…

I carry my highest fat percentage on my thighs. Always have - and unless I have it sucked out I always will. Even when I am nearly underweight. The only thing that helps me is building the muscle in my thighs with weight training. It will help your running too

Wonderful!!!!

Yes yes yes!!!!

Wow! Awesome!

Isn't it amazing what you can do in 2 weeks! Keep it going

Wow - awesome!

GIRL! Wow!

I LOVE Zipfizz. It's a powder with vitamins and caffeine that you add to water. I drink them daily at work - well I did but I recently retired. I like the Pink Lemonade flavor best and have to order those from Amazon. Sam's has several flavors but they are not ones I really like. Grape and Fruit punch I think = they are…

I go to PF. I pay $10/month with a yearly charge of $39. I never have any trouble getting the machine or weights I need. It is kept clean. I haven't used any of the class services or personal trainers. I chose this over the Y (which is right beside it) because of the membership fee (Y is triple the cost) and at certain…

Absolutely amazing!

Amazing transformation! Congratulations (btw your english was spot on)

During any surgery you get IV fluids that are usually full of sodium - you will retain lots of water with that. Also your body just underwent a big shock to it's system. Give it time. Drink plenty of fluids. Each healthy foods. This will self correct if you do these things.

I do 5/2 fasting. I fast 2 days per week - from dinner one night till dinner the next and then I eat up to 500 calories. I can eat the 500 calories at any time (such as when I am STARVING for some crazy reason). Non fast days I eat up to 2000 calories.

I fast from dinner done night till dinner the next night. At that meal I can have 500 calories, or I can spread them out during the day, just cannot go over the 500 calories. When I hit those days that I am just starving (yes, I do have them) I start with drinking something hot. Sometime I will even drink a can of chicken…

The 'norm' 50 years ago was slender (more normal weight) people. If you don't believe me watch some old TV game or dance shows. Rarely do you see someone overweight on them. Today the 'norm' is larger, so when you get down to a lower weight than what 'normal' is today, people see it as too small and unhealthy. Also I think…

Here's the thing about running I've learned over the years. You have to get started and stick with it. Consistency is everything with running. Run 3X/week - start slow with low miles. Build up gradually (no more than a 10% increase in distance per week to prevent injury). Once you get to the mileage you want to do (say…

I have found losing weight to be the easiest part. Maintaining that weight loss has been pretty impossible for me because I do what you did and start overeating again. *sigh*

I have been on transdermal HRT for the past 18 years. It has been of huge benefit to me, and not only the physical benefit (decreased mood swings, decreased hot flashes, etc) but the mental fogginess that was present prior to HRT was horrible and my least favorite part of menopause. I have not noticed any issues with…

Yay!!!! Good for you. This is especially good for me to hear. I retire in two weeks (I'm a RN), and I've been worried that I'll gain weight after retirement. I can easily get my 10K steps/day at work and will have to be committed to getting them after retirement. Of course there won't be donuts in the break room to contend…

Look at that hour glass figure! Looking fabulous!
