Favorite Workout (that doesn't feel like a workout)?
What is your favorite workout (that doesn't feel like a workout)? I discovered spin early in my journey and it is still a favorite; a great burn and it is fun. At Christmas I received the UFC Personal Trainer XBOX game and am in love with it. It is so fun and I don't really feel like I am working out. Plus, I am "training"…

Starting P90X3 - Can I even do this?!
Can I? Yes, though it probably won't be pretty. LOL I have decided that this week to start the P90X3 workous. I have lost over 100 lbs so far but have hit a 3 month plateau and thought this would be a great way (along with adjusting my cals) to break this pesky plateau. I won't lie ... totally scared ****less! Any words of…

Zombies, Revelations, and Katy Perry...OH MY!
I am stranded in a township, surrounded by zombies. I have been spotted; the brain hungry creatures change their direction and are headed towards me. I hear a voice in my head screaming, “RUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNN”! Let me start from the beginning. I am on a journey for my life. I want, I NEED, to survive. In May of 2012 I made…

100 lbs lost (with pics)! Only 60 lbs to go! :)
My entire life I have always been the token “big girl”. I tried dieting, more times than I can even remember, but always failed. I allowed myself to believe that I was always going to be the big girl, it was in my genes. A little over one year ago, I woke up and was 321 lbs. I was morbidly obese, miserable, and missing out…

I lost 100 lbs AND .... (pics)
It is my favorite time of year...FOOTBALL SEASON. I pulled out my favorite Husker t-shirts from last season and it looks like I am going to need some new fan gear. A year ago I weighed 321 lbs, squeezed into this t-shirt and now I weigh 220.4 lbs and swim in it! It is amazing how those little losses over 365 days add up to…

Breaking a plateau, small losses add up
I have been "stuck" in the 230's for some time. A friend told me that maybe I just needed a good binge to break my plateau. Then she added that is she only lost 6 lbs one month she would give up. I opted to distance myself from this so called "friend". This is my last 30 days on MFP. I lost a pound and then hovered at…
