Okay here goes..... I'm on the last week of BFL and I find myself sick AGAIN!!!!! This is the fourth time I have been sick during this challenge. I have two kids so it just seems to make the rounds over and over again. Sickness number three really knocked me off the wagon for a week and a half...

I thought that I'd include a sneak preview. My after picture is after about 7 weeks. You'll have to wait to see the final picture.

How often should I be weighing myself during this challenge? Once a week? Once a month? Weight loss is a goal of mine but is it motivating or disheartening to weigh in weekly? I plan on taking 4,8, and 12 week pictures for a visual tracking method but how about the scale? :)

Well when I started this round July 5th, 2010 I set a goal and the goal was to lose 19lbs by my Birthday July 24th, 2010. I'm sorry to say I missed it by 3lbs, but I will take the 16lb loss any day. I'm feeling better and my clothes are fitting a little loser, but I'm feeling a little down...

I've been out of work now going on 3 weeks and I'm making the most of it looking for a job every day. Yea! I know they say you only need one application a week, but I figure at that rate I would never find a job. I've started to do some serious workouts in between looking for work and trying...

I made it woohoo! With the wedding coming up I wasn’t able to log into the BFL website as much as I wanted to but I did want to let you all know we (My fiancé and I) both made it. I was sad to do my last weight lifting yesterday, but the changes I have made and seen in myself have really...

WOW Its amazing to realize I am not the only person having these rolercoaster feelings. I've had alot of negative people in my life who didn't believe in me and who told me everyday that I am such a failure and a loser and I will never get anywhere in life. In the beginning it really bothered...

So I made it through week 9 flawlessly (well there was one Sunday I cheated a little). I'm 5 10 and lost 13lbs and reached 141lbs. Week 9 was the first week I didn't lose any weight and it did something to me mentally. This week I've cheated...binged almost for three days. I can't seem...

Well today is day 15. I started the week of Christmas and found the holidays to be tough to work around. For my first two weeks, I did 5 days of by the book eating and training and struggled on the days around the holidays. However, I made a conscious effort to keep my portions reasonable and caloric...

Hello! Just wanted to post a mini milestone that I saw today when I looked in the mirror- my collarbones are back! What are some of your mini milestones besides lbs on the scale that you're using to track your progress? McIntyreMama W8D2C1

And have a feeling they will need to be replaced 'soon' too, as I think they will be too big very soon :). When I started, I took pics, but didnt do measurements so I dont know how many inches I'm loosing, but the belly is for sure disappearing. Last week was rough. Am at the 1/2 way point...

Hey everyone! I haven't been on in awhile but am glad to report that I finished my 12 weeks! They weren't perfect, but this was the first time in my life I honestly kept getting back on track and pushing myself to keep going each time I did falter. I have never pushed myself harder, ate cleaner...

Not much to the eyes....but feeling really proud, strong and capable, maybe even slightly feminine again! Before End week 4 (almost) but we are having our fam xmas so im taking my free day a day early before End week 4 me and one of my baby's

END OF WEEK 1 END OF WEEK 3 END OF WEEK 1

well....we ended up taking about a 3 week break. It was stupid, I am mad at myself, and I am motivated to get started again. These last 3 weeks have been chaotic and unorganized. Im done with feeling that way!! back to my six mini meals and hitting the gym tomorrow! Excited to pick it back up, and def...
