Just checked out the site. Very cool.

That's a great idea. Having everything ready for the following morning. I live alone so this part should be easy enough.

A 30 minute moderate to high intensity workout.

Haha see I like this one. I posted because I know little about them and figured they are a waste of money but wanted to ask a bunch of fitness focused people. I definitely think I'll be sticking to the "healthy eating + workout" system.

I'm not saying they are or aren't well respected. All the frivolous responses are okay because those are peoples opinions. Which is what I'm asking for. Peoples general viewpoints on a topic.

^^The above two comments were really helpful. Definitely going to be looking into them both this week :):). Thanks!

Which would be _____?

Hey Chica, I'm 23 and trying to get to 130. I also get dreary when calorie restricted. A good method is lower your weight loss to 1lb a week. Eating good quality food. Also, if you get some exercise in you'll be able to eat more. Add me as a friend if you like.

Awesomeness!

These both are good. This. Take your gym stuff with you and go straight there after work. I have kids now and am on maternity leave so I can go at different times, but before kids I used to be up at 6, and finish around 3:30-4 most days (teacher) and I'd go straight to the gym. Sometimes I'd go to a class around 7. I'm…

I loved jack3d as a pre-workout until they took it off the market. Now that I'm not at a gym I don't use a pre-workout. I'm pro whey protein in shakes and would probably take up a pre-workout supplement again once I have a gym membership.

My amazing little black pencil skirt. I couldn't zip it or even get the hook close at all. Heartbreaking. And now I'm focused.

http://www.thugkitchen.com/ They have just released a cookbook and it's AMAZING. Note, a lot of comical swearing.

Oooooo, never thought of the far away bathroom thing. Goodstuff. And I like the 1-6 info.

@jessicapk, You're reply was GREAT. And encouraging. I've been logging like crazy and that has already helped me. And I've decided to drink two water bottles before noon and another two before 6pm. That means 96oz of water a day. I definitely think the whole "what exercise I want to do once off work" is my weak area.…

Does anyone put whey protein in shakes, etc?

Walking 30min everyday will work until it snows because I live right next to a park (oooo maybe they shovel the path, I'll have to wait and see). But come the end of next month it will be SO cold in Chicago and will get dark early and I'm little lol. I'm looking for indoor apt stuff that people have tried.

Jillian Michaels?

I have a wall in my apt bedroom that has motivational quotes and pictures of other goals. Like a picture of a boxer puppy, a place I want to vacation too, a Buddha anger quote, a picture of a townhouse I would love to own one day, a fitness quote, and pictures of beautiful places I’ve been too. All of that I see every…

I've been logging my food at every meal and it has really been helping. Has anyone tried Tae-bo? I've done it a couple times and it whooped my but I have to time it perfectly or I really disturb the family that lives below me. What about pilates?

You can definitely add me. I need accountability people.
