Is it worth $25 for a SV?
Some people think I've gone off my rocker... completely insane... and generally headed to wingnut land in a mental sense. This Friday, I'm going to go by my old dr.'s office and get a copy of the one and only medical record I have from him. It will cost me $25. Seems fairly normal... but I'm going because my medical chart…

Sept '11 - Mar '12, 20lbs down (W/PICS)
I've been struggling to keep up lately. I've gotten bored of the 'log my food, workout on Monday and Friday and Sunday because no one will watch my kids, log my exercise - wash - rinse - repeat' cycle. I was hoping to get a bicycle for Christmas. That didn't happen. I don't know how to ride one because I never learned as a…

So... this one time... at Boot Camp...
..... I worked my booty off and we had to do these sit-up things with a weight overhead & our arms stretched out. I used a 4 lb. weight and I was going to just half-*kitten* it and do crunches, but I didn't! Ladies and germs, for the first time since I was 12 years old {that's 20 years ago for you non-math majors}, I did a…

Any 'at-home' lifters care to......
... take a moment and devise a good full body plan with me? I'd like to lift without watching a DVD and following alone, but I'm not really sure how to go about it. I'd like to start with light weights and high reps for leaness to compliment my more cardio based workouts. I wanna burn some cals and keep my muscle to…

11/13/11 SVs & NSVs
Today, I finally broke the 250s. I've been stuck in the 250-260 lb. range for nearly a month... going up a little, down a little, water weight, not enough sleep, etc etc. I stepped on the scale this morning at 247.2 lbs. and I am STOKED! For me, this is a very big deal. The only time I've been recordably thinner than this…

Friday NSV - The T-Shirt!
In June, I was helping a friend clean out closets and found a shirt that was going to be thrown away that I really liked. I offered to take it versus a perfectly good and nearly new shirt be tossed. I could barely open the bottom of this tshirt to get my arms in to shimmy them up to the armhole openings since my friend was…

Another NSV for my Belly!
Last night, I was finishing my p90x yoga DVD. Im never sure if Im doing it quite right, but I give it hell. Since Ive got some yoga blocks, I feel much better about it. Anyway, I have a huge Thomas Kincaid painting over my loveseat in the living room where I workout. I was walking to the end table by said loveseat to turn…

Last night's NSV!
Ok, this is a little bit on the graphic side, but last night, I decided (for the first time since I started losing weight) to take a bath instead of a shower. I live in a small mobile home/trailer house and my bathroom is exceptionally small.... hence, a small bathtub. I was actually nervous taking a bath because before…

I never realized....
how much smaller my goal weight/size will be. I've been getting emails about all these fall fashion sales, and I honestly can't buy any clothes because I don't know what size I will be by the time it's cold outside. My leather jacket won't fit. It's a men's 4X. That's HUGE!!!! I am assuming that my goal weight of 170 (at…

NSV at work
I was doing my best to stay in good spirits today since I didn't lose any lbs. (still at 260.2) but I have lost inches (6" total body in the past 4 weeks). It's a struggle to get dressed in the morning because my body is getting so different and a new wardrobe every few months isn't in the cards for me. Today, right before…

HELP!!!!! Not Meeting my Net Cals :(
I'm still not meeting my Net Cals (at least 1200 per day). I've lost almost 70 lbs. in 8 months by having less to eat and more exercise. Now, with all the forums, I'm completely freaking that I'm going to hit starvation mode. What are my Net Cals. supposed to be at the ends of the day???? Quite often, I'm only around…

Wait............ now i'm all confused
Ok, I'm admittedly a Weight Watchers Points Plus girl. This calorie thing is totally new for me. My BMR is about 1945/day. This number would keep me at my current weight, correct? Currently, I'm consuming (on avg.) 1660/day. That's a calorie deficit is a total of 285. If I maintain that amount every day for a week, that's…
