45 pounds gone! First time posting picture :)
So I started MFP last year because my work was doing a "weightloss challenge" and I've successfully lost 45 lbs :) About halfway through the year, I hit a plateau and stopped losing weight and so I kind of gave up a little bit. I'm jumping back on the wagon and going to try to lose another 45 lbs by Christmas! Here's a…

Workout question!
The place where I work has a little gym (includes a stationary bicycle, a treadmill, and an elliptical)..So on my breaks I always work out. I have been breaking my workouts up into three 10/15 minute intervals...is that as effective as doing 30/45 minutes at once? Im a single mother...so I find it difficult to get to a gym…

The little black dress
Does anyone have that little black dress that you have grown out of..and kept for motivation?? Well I do! When I first started my weightloss journey (June 2011)...I couldn't hardly get it up..and only half way zipped :noway: but NOW...I don't even have to unzip it to put it on!!! I can just pull it up and it's kind of…

Fasting: Good or Bad?
So I was reading a book yesterday, that states Fasting every once in a while (at least 3 days) is good for you because it cleanses your system. ....Not eating for 3 days seems unhealthy, if you ask me! But..I thought I might give it a try, drink only water and flush my system out! What do you think..is this a bad idea??
