    Insomnia brought me to this thread... My name is Brittney. I'm a Floridian and I'm 27. Being active and working out is something I've come to enjoy. I've lost over 50lbs and I still have more to lose. Enjoying the changes thus far.

    Hello Emma! My dad was born and raised in Chicago. I grew up in Sauk Village. Terrible town now, but it was decent when I was a kid.

    My motivation is usually me not liking myself in a way hahah. Like, I want to be better, I'm never satisfied with results. Kinda bad though, because if I have a bad day at the gym, i have a verrrry bad day hahahaha

    When I work out I might get on it during my rests but certainly not during

    fair enough. do you time your rests? or just when you feel rested enough?

    I time them but will shorten and lengthen based on feel

    Only do it w cardio!!

    Hey guys, even though I doubt (no offense) this thread is going to go anywhere I'm willing to put in my bit. Just seems like most people in the forums are here to goof around.

    Anyways I'm Josh and I've been an on and off member for 7 years. Health and fitness has always been important to me. I came back after some of my (very) poor lifestyle choices nearly killed me. I ended up having a stroke at the ripe age of 26 now I'm trying to get my body and mind back on par with where it used to be prior to that. I'm a huge into the outdoors, astronomy, physics and I like watching scifi movies and shows. Also naturally a hunter and sportsmen. There's my story, short version anyway

    Ohh and I'm going to be moving to Australia At the end of September. Nothing against Wisconsin but I can't wait to leave this state and this country for a while!

    Where in Wisconsin are you from ?

    I guess I'll stop in and say hi. I'm Brittny. I'm from a small town in Illinois. I get asked a lot what my user name means because it just looks like a bunch of mumbo jumbo. hahaha It's a combination of my maiden last name and my married name. I have 3 boys and now 3 dogs. Just adopted a puppy yesterday. :)

    I know your small town!

    The only way I exercise is by going to my personal trainer. I love it. I love circuit training, I love that it's different every time, and I love someone pushing and encouraging me through the whole thing. I also do yoga but that's almost entirely for flexibility because circuit training covers both cardio and strength for me.

    logging... really, really necessary. logging to make sure you're at a deficit is waaaay more important than exercise for weight loss. you get used to it, and then it's second nature. :)[/quot

    Right now I've started riding my bike... I try to do 6 miles... Figure I'll do what I can while the weather is still nice outside. And I'll look into a gym membership

    I think she meant where I am currently living, is a small town. My oldest dog is a Bloodhound named Tilly, then there is Pepper, she is a beagle/chihuahua mix, and we just adopted a boxer mix puppy yesterday

    Not sure if my last comment went through to you. Right now I've started up my writing my bike outside I'm doing 6 miles. Figure I will take advantage of the weather outside. And then when it gets cold out join the gym
