Back from vacation and must say that diet was the furthest thing away from my mind! I weighed when I for back on Monday and had gained a pound. So not motivated, but need to get back on track. I have been eatting terribly and not excercising. I promised myself i will to get back on track After Canada day. Hoping everyone…
I thought it would be encouraging to start a chain where we can note our small successes of the day. For example passing up homemade brownies a co-worker brought in or walking home from work instead of taking public transportation. Anything that you do that makes you feel proud of your decision (no matter how small) - note…
Hi guys - what are some of your staples for your weekly diet? I could use some food inspiration, I'm getting a little bored with my usuals. Here are some of mine: Bfast - oatmeal with berries, kashi with soy milk and berries, greek yogurt; AM workout days - Lara bar on the way to the gym, protein shake after Lunch - Salads…
So how is everyone doing in knocking out those last 10-15 lbs? I have been going in the wrong direction. My waist is a 1/2 inch bigger and my weight is up 3-4 lbs. I am surprisingly calm about it. This would have ruined my day (or week) in times past. I know I am not going to stop working out. I know I am going to control…

My fitness journey started well over a year ago now (Jan. 2012). I was reflecting back over that time and thinking about things I have learned about fitness, nutrition, myself, the fitness industry, etc. I would like to hear some of the truths you have discovered along the way... Some of the items that came to my mind are:…
On the same lines of struggling with food/work outs on the weekends, another thing is the booze I consume on the weekends. I'll admit that my friends and I still drink and party like we are in college during the summer. My bf and his buddies have a shore house that I go to almost every weekend and the boys literally start…
From the intro post it seems a lot of us have issues with the weekends! I guess that comes with not having a lot of weight to lose, we probably feel like we don't have to be 'on' 100%. Well at least I think that is what part of my problem is. I did ok this weekend, but more on the side of bad. I had healthy breakfast and…
Hi guys - I am so glad we could start a group (thanks cancun). I thought we could all just give a brief intro so we can get to know each other :) I'm Kelly and have slowly gained about 12 lbs over the past 2 years. I am a runner and have run 2 full marathons, one half marathon and a hand full of 10 mileres and 5Ks. I'm not…
