Fem 38. 5'4" cw 165 Sooo, I guess the only way to post in here is to reply to your own post. hahaha. Wish i had figured that out earlier. It's been a difficult couple of weeks. I checked my hip waist ratio a few months ago and it wasn't great. I checked my BMI and i'm just very barely out of the obese category into the…

Here! Here! Well told! I reeeeeally like Jr chicken... He's a spicy little number. I used to make a deal with myself, on my way home if I'm overtaken with the overwhelming urge to have salty fries or a Jr chicken the deal is, I will have it after i eat supper, or after I eat lunch as the case may be. I used to work across…

I didn't set anything, I'm 5'4" 170 lbs bmi says I'm obese and the calorie is set to 1200. I used to eat twice that with beer and sandwiches but I'm over analyzing and need to get past it. It's just hard to let go.

Hey Lottie, we're with you girl! I like Zumba too, after I get over the first few classes of not being able to breathe and feel like every part of my body is waaay clunkier than everyone else. ;) I've not lost a spouse, but this fall my father lost his wife and I was amazed at how hard it is and has been. It seems he has…

Hey lbs buddy! I'm down 11 too! Took me a lot longer than 3 weeks though ;) Well done, you're of to a good start!

Oh.

I feel really stupid here, what the heck is a sugar alcohol? xylitol, sorbitol, erythritol?? I have never heard these words. Are these only found in the prepackaged low calories snacky foods?

I have the same problem Grumpy. Sometimes I get to the end of the day, (like now) and have 800+ calories to go. I could easily go have fries and beer and get them all in, but I don't want to do that either. I don't have the gumption to go cook chicken breast and make a salad. It just all seems like a lot of work every day.…

Hi Kimberly, I'm also 5'4" and started around 180 with the plan to lose 1-2 lbs per week. I began in April of 2015. I tracked my food (staying around 1200-1500cals most days) and went to the gym everyday but nothing happened for a long time. I eventually lost a few pounds (I'm sure it was all a result of the gym not food)…

This was my starter plan when I got back into the gym... Monday – Chest and Back Chest 1. Flat dumbbell press http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/detail/view/name/dumbbell-bench-press 2. Incline Flyes http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/detail/view/name/incline-dumbbell-flyes 3. Decline Flyes…

I'm in the same boat Melissa, I was a member years ago and had no idea this was "a thing" sigh.

Oh and I should add I'm still stuck on sexy b!tch for one of my favorite workout jams. I also like Darude, DJ Ties to, Bassjackers...

You are not alone girl! I dance while I walk/jog along our road (a secondary highway) I like to think I bring something to talk about our at least smile/laugh to people's day :smiley:

Hi all, I fear I am nearing the latter part of dirty thirties (just turned 38). I started the gym April 1 after quite a few years hiatus and have been finding my way around. I'm not sure what an accountabuddy can do to help the process but I'm very willing to try. Going on my very first cruise in 11 months and want to look…
