Something to celebrate, with pics!
In a little less than 2 months, I will be turning 30. And while leaving my 20's will be bittersweet, I feel as if I have so much to celebrate.

Same beach but now with a different woman!! WITH PICS
This past weekend I took a day trip to the beach with my mom and brother and realized how truly comfortable I was in my own skin.

I am still in shock, is that really me?? PICS
When I started my journey in January 2011, I had NO idea I would have come this far! I was out of breath going to our breakroom, stairs made me want to die, I couldn't run with my kids or wrestle around without feeling like I couldn't breathe. I was NEVER comfortable in clothes, I hated buying the largest size Lane Bryant…

My journey, from January 2011 to Oct 2011 with pics
First off, I have to start off saying that if I didn't have my MFP family, I really truly do not think I would have been able to accomplish what I have so far. The support is amazing, I have laughed, cried, been motivated, smiled and jumped for joy with my many friends on this site. Now, this year I have certainly…

PATIENCE!!!
PATIENCE: Let's be realistic here. You won't drop two jean sizes in one day. You won't lose fifty pounds in one month. You're going to binge every now and then. You will go a day or two without working out. Your weight is going to fluctuate here and there. You're going to try new techniques and they're not going to work,…
