Looking to drop 40#
I am getting my butt back in gear, and hopefully back into my cute jeans! I had a pretty bangin bod 6 years ago and went through IVF which was successful but I packed on 100 pounds. I dropped 60# pretty easily after my hormones got back to normal but it’s time to put in actual work. Since I suck at counting calories I’m on…

Here I go again!
Hi all! I was pretty hardcore about fitness and nutrition a couple years ago and was in the best shape of my life at the age of 40. I had a successful round of IVF but gained 100 pounds. I've lost 50 pounds over the last year with diet alone but hit the plateau and have no choice but to exercise again (ugh!) I have another…

Baby weight smack down!
I was in the best shape of my life one year ago! I gained 75 pounds with a triple whammy: fertility treatments, I quit smoking, and I'm ready to give birth any day! I have a trip to Maui planned for June and I WILL NOT hide under my beach umbrella! Who's with me?!?!

Clothing problems
I didn't lose my boobs when I lost weight. As a result I look like I'm wearing a tent most of the time because if I buy shirts that fit my chest, it's baggy everywhere else. I try to dress conservatively but I end up looking 20 lbs heavier; the alternative is to wear clothes that fit my waist properly but squeeze cleavage…

Exercise entertainment
I would stay on the treadmill a lot longer if I didn't get so bored. I am pretty much sick of all my songs on iPod. Any suggestions on a good TV show to watch while I workout?

Always strategically placing my children in front of me so that only my head is showing. Then there's the one someone took of me that I wasn't expecting and I…

The jiggle has returned!
I have not been weighing in and it bit me in the butt! My clothes have not gotten tighter, but there it was, a 10 pound gain GRRR! Started measuring, and sure enough those numbers were up too.

Weight Loss and Smoking
I hate smoking. I really do. I've successfully quit several times, but picked it back up because my appetite got out of control and I started gaining weight. Terrible reason, I know. I'm just about to reach my UGW and I think I've figured out what a normal portion of food is supposed to be, and I want to quit the…
