Looking for new friends
Hi all!! I've been here for quite a while, and have lost almost 70 pounds. I lost some before I found MFP. Around the New Year, I had trouble with losing weight, but was able to stay in maintenance. I'm ready to lose the last 15 pounds. Looking for new friends!

2013 was a success
Not only for weight loss, but my entire life improved. Got out of a bad relationship and worked on myself like crazy. I decided to go back for school for something that I really wanted and even got a 4.0 the fall semester. I made a goal of running a half marathon and completed it in November. I'm not sure what my starting…

What do you do with your clothing?
I'm down almost 70 pounds right now and have gone from a XL to a M, and pretty close to my goal. I didn't have many winter clothes that I liked, so I splurged this year on clothing and got rid of almost all of it. Now my problem is summer clothes. I had a beautiful wardrobe and don't want to get rid of a lot of pieces. Do…

Transitioning from treadmill to outdoor running
I've done most of my running on a treadmill, but completing a race outside on Sunday completely changed that. I loved running outdoors. I mapped a few runs by my house and did a 5k today to see how it would go with running by myself. Loved it. I just did a slow jog the whole way through because of the huge hills that I…

My first half-marathon!!
I was so nervous going into my first half-marathon. I stopped training for a while and only restarted a month before my half. My longest run was just under 9 miles, how the hell was I going to run 13.1 miles? I made 3 goals for the run. 1. To NOT be the last half-marathoner to cross the finish line. 2. To run the entire…

Curious if anyone else is running it next Sunday? The girl I signed up with disappeared off this site, and I found someone else to run with, but she ended up having a scheduling conflict and couldn't sign up.

60 pound loss and hiking NSV!
Yesterday, one of my classes took a field trip to a local national park. My group climbed up the biggest hill, and I got some pictures of the amazing the views. I even talked them into going on one of the steepest trails to get pictures with a rock called balanced rock. After lunch, I went with another group because my…

Best time to weigh yourself?
I keep hearing that the morning is the best time to weigh yourself. Does it really matter the time of the day? I always weigh less in the afternoon than I do in the morning. Like today was my weigh in day 167.6 this morning, but 166.2 just now. Could it be because I work nights and eat more calories later in the day than…

I binged yesterday
I ate way too much yesterday. I went to a birthday party yesterday, and expected to go over my calories. I wanted to enjoy all the food at the cookout and have a piece of cake. Except I just didn't stop. I just logged what I at and I went about 1400 over my daily goal. I'm not worried about that. I'm training for a half…

So many NSV today
My daughter and I went shopping today, as it was time for me to get some new clothes. I went to Victoria Secret and got fitted. The first bra i tried on, a 36C, was too big. I tried the 36B, still to big. I'm now a 34B. I started out as a 38D. WOW! Then we went to Vanity. I loved the girls jeans who was working and she…

What's better than losing 50 pounds?
Hitting the 50 pound weight loss on your birthday!! My highest recorded weight was 213, but I'm sure I gained more after that. I was a stay at home mom, and at times I would just sit at home and eat. In October, I got a part time job and was on my feet more and didn't eat so much and by February, I was down to 201. Mid…

First half marathon?
How long did you run before you ran your first half marathon? I've been running for around 5 month now and love it. I run 4 miles 3 or 4 times a week right now and do a few miles for time. I'm looking at one in November.

Warrior dash?
Who's done one? I'm doing my first one in 2 weeks for my birthday, and I'll be right around the 50 pound weight loss mark by then (at 47 now).

I lost my daughter's entire weight!!
I'm down a total of 43 pounds today, and was a little upset I'm only down two pant sizes and I still have 30 more pounds to go...until my 6 year old got on the scale. 43.8 pounds. I lost her entire weight. I still can't believe that.
