110 lbs. Gone in less than a year.. (pics)
Some of you here on MFP know my story and some do not. I don’t want to make this long but After 8 months of working my tail off, 1 month of The Ultimate Reset and 6 weeks of recouping a knee surgery I have lost about 111 lbs. If you would have asked me last year at this time if that was possible, I may have told you that…

90 lbs. down 150 to go.. (pics)
To the people who think that losing a lot of weight is impossible, its not. I started at 380 +. I receive emails daily about people who think they are too big to start. You just GOT to start! As of today I have hit 90 lbs. Gone. Its incredible to me still because I look in the mirror and I see what I have left to do. But…

ByeBYE 105 lbs. of Self Inflicted Pain and Suffering!
I know I just posted progress over a week ago but this is a BIG FREAKIN DEAL! lol My whole life I started things and stopped them. I never stayed motivated enough to just stick to one thing and finish. I would start and have a lot of interest in the beginning but then soon after, I would get bored and lose all interest.…

Turbo Fire Results, Down 85 lbs. Since November (pics)
I have been seeing people asking and posting about Turbo Fire :) Here are My results since The Beginning of November. I started at 1200 calories and I have tried to bump them to 1500 but I really am used to eating clean so even then sometimes its hard to do that. I also drink Shakeology.

The moment the light bulb turns on.
I think with anyone who has a ton of weight to lose there is that utterly and pure moment where clarity shines through and the light bulb turns on. The light bulb where you see the whole picture and your life right before your eyes. I had that moment in November of 2012. I had to make a choice to either live or die. That…

10 months and counting :) (pics)
Although most of my weight loss has come in the last 4 to 5 mths. I still cannot believe what I looked like May of last year and what I look like now. I still have a long ways to go but I am never going back! If you ever think of giving up, DON'T! Just look at old pics and tell yourself, you never want to be that way…

Life happened....
A little motivation for you today... it comes straight from the story of me! I got to about 380 lbs. I am 5'4. Im sure people have looked at me in disgust. I looked at myself that way. I had always been a little heavier starting in about the 5th grade. Athletic in high school blah blah blah. Fast forward 2008. I was over…

Old fashion Diet and Exercise!
I can't stress this enough! I wish I would have started and stay started rather than yo-yoing forever! At the beginning of November I woke up and I said to myself, enough is enough! I sometimes like to post a lot but if I reach someone MY SIZE who thinks its impossible, ITS NOT. I had only been taking front progress pics…

Which came first?
For me a high Cardio works for me first before strength training. Is it the correct to do it that way? I have a lot of weight to shred off so I was wondering if its the proper way? If I do strength training first it feels like I barely have the energy to do the High Cardio workout after it. So which comes first, Strength…

50 lbs. Gone still on the way to success! (pics)
Yeah, it certainly is a little discouraging. When you see on the scale that you have lost 50 lbs but you still have so long to go. Thats me, and I know that is the same for a lot of people. It's hard to imagine yourself at your goal weight when you have been big for so long. In just a few short months I have done something…

Vibram FiveFingers
I was wondering if anyone here uses these, and if so which one would be the best for fitness exercising. I have a heck of a time finding the right shoes to wear, and sometimes the fit is good but I feel like I could be doing better. Today I worked out with no shoes and it seemed to give me more energy as with shoes it…

I thought I threw those out!
So yesterday while going through the pile of clothes I will soon have to get rid of. (Im quite confident in myself nothing wrong with that!) While digging through I found these Army Cargo pant capris I wore like 2 times 2 years ago, I was sure they were too small and I figured I threw them out! Much to my surprise and for…

Last night while at the super Walmart (you know the big ones with grocery stores in them). On what seemed like a weird night or I would have thought it was Halloween or something, but then again isn't Walmart always like that? Anyways not to get off topic. My bestie and I were shopping for our weekly meals, I am a Lean…

I have a question!
So today I got a letter from my Primary doctor about some lab results, she told me my Vitamin D/ Calcium levels were low and that I should take a supplement, and then also my Potassium levels were low. These tests were all prior to my changing of eating habits, etc... She wants to see me back in about 4 weeks for new labs.…
