@bloodewine Can you take quit breaks during working on your project and short hiit workouts? Or there are lots of quick 15 min workout videos. @taketwo2014 I weigh everyday. It is frowned upon. But because I don't count calories it's my check in. So I know if I need to make adjustments. @2run2ski Mowing is relaxing for me…

Thanks everyone! Tonight I push mowed the yard. Started mowing an extra part that could be mowed by the big mower, but I want the exercise!

Hey group! I haven't been around much so I am out of the loop! I hope everyone is doing well. I am back on track more or less and hit 45 lbs gone this week. Hoping to hit my 50 by the end of the month. Danielle

I'm in! I already had spinach in my smoothie this morning. Jumping jacks aren't my favorite, but I'll do them.

This made me giggle a little because I was excited I got in 100 Oz before 4. You are doing great. The water really does help. It took me awhile to make myself used to 100+ ounces a day. @princesspayton Welcome!

Hello everyone! More new faces. Great! My email to add me on fitbit is daniellesaurers@gmail.com. Feel free to add me. Just let me know you are from here! I have never tried the Jillian videos. They sound intense though. Maybe in my future!

I have never tried it, but it sounds intense. Make sure you stay hydrated! Good luck!

@bloodewine I am doing the thigh challenge. But not logging it in. You may be able to figure something out under strength training.

@shirayne. It isn't hard to fit in. Even if you break it up. It will become a habit. A good habit. Here is the link. Just look for thigh one guys. Today isn't over! http://magicisintheart.tumblr.com/post/71498083047/oh-dear-gods-im-gunna-be-hurting-but-damn-will

Out of the loop due to family stuff. Start my new monthly challenge tomorrow. It's a thigh challenge. If you want to join in let me know! Sticking to my 125oz of water a day even though these past two days I haven't been able to exercise.

To all the new people that stumbled upon us this weekend welcome! Add me if you want to. For those of you who didn't see my post on the news feed I am doing another month long challenge. This month is thighs. Modify where needed, but would love to have a large group stick this one out. Here is the link I could find. Just…

@shirayne I honestly believe the gut is the hardest to go away for me. And it takes the longest. I just keep putting the effort in and hoping it eventually catches up!

@ninthnarnian‌ That is a rough allergy. I just thought about all the things I eat or make that have pepper in them. Sure they could be removed. But eating out has to be rough! Today I was reminded of one of my overeating triggers. Being tired. I have put in a ton of effort this week, plus work family, etc. I really needed…

@mildollarsmile‌ It sounds like you are off to a good start after going through a lot of stuff! Welcome to the group!

@bregalad5 Tough fall when your back already hurts and you need to walk to get everywhere! I hope they get you sorted out! @happyplace‌ Welcome! I have a fitbit charge too! Always stepping.

Everyone seems to be doing great or asking for help when needed. Love reading all that!

Crazy schedules are hard! Food prep probably would help you. So you can grab and go in the morning with plenty of good foods to eat. To resist temptation on the quick and easy fast food. I would also say if you are exercising and basically start your days at the same time try to get up early enough to get some exercise in.

Sorry for the double post. Positive vibes going into Tuesday! :)

So far I'm putting in the effort physically and with food. Still looking to finish this month feeling good. I noticed when I was running around the yard today breathing is much easier. I don't get winded quickly. Love that NSV.

Welcome to the new people! Never to late to join! @kp3868‌ Great transformation photos. You look happy and healthy. @prof_newme‌ What a great NSV!!!

Welcome! So glad you are here! What does the doctor say about your knee? Any place you can do water aerobics? Much easier on the joints to add to your walking.

Sounds like a very good for you snack @vschwgrt. One of my go to snacks for the drive home from work is just an apple. It really helps me from walking in the door and grabbing the first thing I see to eat.

@Hippychick5983‌ Sounds like you are doing great! @vschwgrt1 What is your favorite snack? I enjoy hummus with just about any kind of vegetable.

@SojournerYouth‌ Sounds like you are off to a great start!

I have been down this path before and had trouble with fatigue. Exercise helped increase energy, protein, and water. But in the long run it still wasn't enough for me to keep pace with life and exercise. This time I am trying plexus slim to help keep my energy levels up. I love it thus far. If you want to know about it you…

@bregalad5 My scale gives me a BMI rating. And I am happy it does. The initial number was pretty scary! But as I'm losing its nice to see that number go down. Very reassuring when the pounds aren't moving, but my BMI is because then I know I'm still doing ok and those pounds will be gone soon too.

@SaraD72‌ I can't keep daily track of my calories. It overwhelms me. Stresses me out and I eat more. I have to just mentally do it in my head. I also have to stay educated and aware of what I take in so I have a good estimate of my intake.

Love catching up on the posts. I also love people admitting their strengths and weaknesses and even mistakes. Reminds me that we are all different, but our struggles are all so similar. I hope everyone has a great week! I'm going to push a little harder this week. Would love to get under 250. Getting closer! Tomorrow is a…

NSV this morning. Pushed away my breakfast plate when I knew I would be full rather then just finishing that delicious food. My bf plated it, so they was twice as much as what I have been eating. Usually would have just ate it because I could. Fun family day planned today. Going to get my exercise in today also. Hoping for…

@bregalad5 That is awesome!
