Where are you at in your journey?

Need Friends Trying to Lose the Baby Weight
Hi all, feel free to add me if you're also losing weight after having a child (or if you have a significant amount to lose)! Prior to getting pregnant, I had lost 60 of 110-120 pounds I needed to lose to get to a healthy BMI. After giving birth, I've backtracked half that, so I have around 80-90 pounds to go! It took me 1…

Question for the Ladies
Ladies, Aunt Flo is currently a week late. I'm not sure if I could be expecting or not - my first pregnancy test a few days ago came back negative and I'm planning to wait until I'm 1 1/2 - 2 weeks late to test again. In the meantime, is it okay for me to continue eating at a deficit, or should I go up to maintenance?

Body Frame & Shoe Size
On several forums, people have expressed frustration that many of us overweight people claim to be large framed, but really aren't.

Hi all, I am starting to do 6 Week Cardio Crush tonight, but there is no schedule associated with the video, so I'm not sure how to make it work for six weeks.

Tall Women & Clothes
Hi all! I'm 5'10" and have lost nearly 50 pounds so far. However, I am struggling to drop dress shirt sizes because smaller shirts are too short, particularly at the midriff and sleeves, as well as too narrow at the shoulders. I typically shop at Talbots and Coldwater Creek, but don't think this will keep working as I am…

Disproportionate Fat Loss?
I know we can't choose where the weight comes off, but is anyone experiencing a disproportionate loss in inches? My previously smallest core area was over my abs, but now that I've gone down over 10 inches at my hips and waist, it sticks out like a sore thumb. If the pouch were lower, I'd look pregnant. As it is, it…
