80 pounds gone!
I've spent all day throwing myself a pity party, mostly because I have so much further to go before I reach a healthy weight. So I've been trying to look at before/after pictures to snap myself out of it, haha. I mean, that's a big accomplishment, right? But then I get all boohoohoo about how it took me 2 years to lose 80…

bad day
I've been on a self-improvement journey for about a year now, but sometimes I feel like I've done practically nothing (yes, despite the 40 pounds lost in my ticker.) I have a college phys. ed class this year, and my performance is pathetic. I can't run like all the other people can; I always end up far behind limping along…

Needing some support
I've done really well ever since I decided to set off on my weight-losing journey. I've lost about 74 pounds in the last year an a half, which should leave me feeling accomplished, right? But even with all that, I'm still 240 pounds, far far away from being a healthy weight. :( And my weight loss has slowed to about a…

NSV! Kind of?

I've lost almost fifty pounds since then. ANYWAY, the woman who was doing my vitals took my weight and asked me what I "had done"! And…

Edamame beans?
I've grown to like eating edamame beans with my salads, but was curious about other ways to eat them or things they would go good with. (Besides just eating them alone, haha.)

baking with soda (not baking soda)
I've been wanting to try to bake a cake using diet soda like I've seen so many recipes suggest to me. Annnnd I have a box of cinnamon crumb cake mix I bought forever ago that would be ideal for this experiment. I'm just wondering what kind of soda do you think would complement cinnamon best?I might just end up going with…

NSV!
For the last several years, I've worn a 22 in pants. The last time I wore a size lower was probably an 18/20 in my freshman year of high school. A few months ago I accidentally bought 16/18 pants and decided to save them since I was (and still am) in the process of losing weight. They fit today! Albeit very tightly, but…

61 pounds gone! :)
I still have 33 pounds to go before I meet my short-term goal, but after weighing in today I found out I've lost 61 pounds since starting dieting and exercising (21 since finding MFP) and I felt pretty darn proud of myself and wanted to share. I don't have any full body shots, but I think it shows well enough in the…
