NSVs are some of the best!
So I went shopping last night for a new dress (going to Vegas in a week!), and I went to one of my favorite stores. I found a dress I loved, slipped it on, and found that I need to go DOWN a size! Woohoo! The scale hasn't been moving for me a lot lately, but nights like last night make me feel like I'm on track :) Anyone…

New face for new friends!
Hi! My name is Emily. I am 23 and motivated to get in shape and lose some weight! I've done this in the past; I lost 40 pounds about 4 years ago and managed to keep it off until recently. Starting a desk job and then falling off the gym habit killed me though, and I am back up 30 pds. BUT that will change!! :D I definitely…
