I have recently upped the amount of weight lifting I have been doing and I am noticing a lot of change. I'm not losing pounds as fast but my arms and legs (FINALLY FREAKING CALVES) are starting to get definition going to them. My weight loss goal is to get back into shape. I don't care if I weight 300 pounds, as long as I have low body fat and I'm healthy. If anyone is curious on free weight questions or are scared I can help out with that some as that is one of the things I did when I was younger. When I first started it was all about the weight loss and now it's about being healthy.
I don't know if everyone is working out or some just dieting, but if you are just dieting let me tell you something I've learned. When you work out everything else seems to fall in place. Motivation, eating, and etc seem to come into line. I don't always eat the healthiest, I work on that but since working out my hunger and just health and feelings have increased drastically. My depression problems gone, health issues gone, sense of humor is back and greater then its been in a long time. So drink plenty of fluids (pure water preferred), watch your calories, don't deny yourself types of foods just portion them, and if you can work out. When I say work out I mean really push it. Our bodies can do more then what our brains think they can do.
Lets all try to push ourselves, reach down inside and lets let our personalities shine, and work towards what we want. I pay more attention to everyone's profiles and diets then I let on! I am proud of you guys, there is some amazing work going on.
Now that I actually posted a legitimate post back to my immature pictures!
Now for first weight loss tip, this is wrong form:

Hi Tribe-
Sorry about not posting yesterday. I am SOOOO ready for my life to settle down a bit. Me being sick, daughter with concussion, daughter with awful cold, hubby with flu and yesterday...grandma in a car accident. She is fine but her first ticket and accident ever. Felt so bad for her.
Anyhow, glad to be back. Happy Birthday KJ.
Yesterday I exercised and did my stupid jumping jacks and the other challenge stuff. Today was much better with the challenge stuff. Thinking that my lungs still have some healing to do.
Hope everyone is having a great week!

Janet - Wow, when it rains, it pours, right? Keep your head up! Hope everyone feels better soon and glad that you're grandma is okay.
Anina - You rock!
Reesa - I know it's hard to stay motivated. I'm in a bit of a rutt myself right now. Glad JR was able to get you going! Exercise can only lead to positive things!
Sherri - Wowsa, what a workout!
Sorry all for not posting yesterday. It'll have to be my day off for this week (already!). I've been going through a little bit of an emotional rollercoaster right now and bouts of depression and lack of motivation are the main side effect. My dad is terminally ill (cancer all over) and I'm starting to have a hard time with it, having just lost my Mom in 2007. I don't have a relationship with my dad, so the current situation has me entirely confused and emotional. So, of course, all I want to do is lay around and eat. At least I kept my calories in check yesterday, but I barely moved a muscle. It'd be great if I could just get angry about the whole thing and take out my aggression in the gym.
I'm back in the game this morning. I've already gone 3.5 miles on the elliptical (9 minute miles!), completed the challenge exercises for Day 2 and did 50 crunches so far.
Everyone is doing so well! It's so great to see!0 -
TY for all of the posts!!! I completed everything yesterday then did an extra 60 minutes more during the 2 hour premiere of Biggest Loser last night!
PS PLEASE forgive me but today I am finally able to update my fantasy league team and I'm really zoned out right now focusing on it. I PROMISE I will return to normal later today!!!!0 -
