When I made the week 1 I was thinking of all the things that go on besides just saying you got it done. I am also a member and have been part of other groups where threads get really long. Sorry if this is confusing. There is the good, the bad and the ugly of week 1 that we can talk about. This can be anything. I like the…

I too keep thinking form. I want to also do good pushups

I am getting better at those pushups and had to do a double take when I was doing a lunge and touched the floor.

I need to get that workout done today. Knowing it is really only 20 min motivates me a little. I keep thinking I am going to get bored doing the same thing over and over. I need to start thinking I will get strong. Getting bored is negative talk and the negative talk stops here.

This is a picture of the egg bake I talked about. Please note apples not toast. Toast is a high calorie/low nutrition filler food and I am trying to stay clear of.

Last night I made spaghetti so I put 1/2 cup of noodles in a bowl and added 2 cups of green beans and meat sauce on top. Now this is what I call a good meal. I love red sauce with ground-beef so I can put it on any veggie.

@chandraminick I too am re looking at things I use to think were really good. The whole upside down blizzard think is leaving my life. We went to the DQ for dinner the other night and I got the pulled pork on pretzel bun and a blizzard. I really tasted it and I am now done and over it. Blizzards use to have big chunks of…

I was dodn50 pounds and kept 40 off for 6 years till I added 10. It took me a couple of years and now the extra 10 is gone but I still have 10 to go. It is tough. I just want to get tone more than anything.

Good job. Kick those old habits. I don't know what is harder, taking it off or keeping it off. I think about this statement every time I start to think how hard it is to eat healthy. I think about all the dr. appointments others go to, the cost of the meds they take, The PO moments they have when things don't fit and how…

I was just thinking that all those jumping jacks are going to get boring by day 3

Workout 1 done. Do we really do the same workout every day?

I am married to a normal weight man that eats what I cook. I am a pretty good cook. I am not a big sauce person so that cuts a bunch of calories. I have no children at home. I do get tired of cooking some days. Make that many days. I work full time and then like to go to the gym after work. One thing I hate but am trying…

I am laughing at the DVD player still working. I have gone through a couple of them and try not to use mine very much. I should really just put all my DVDs on a portable hard drive so I can pull them up easier. it's always a crap if the player will work.

@joannezuk great goals! love them

My goal is to look good in one of those shirts with part of an open back. That fat roll has to go. I have a picture of a before. I should of taken the picture before I bought the shirt.

I was thinking we were doing Jillian Michaels BODYSHRED. Now I have to make sure I have the workout. I better also check the workout schedule. This is the first time I'm not looking at how many days off per week you get.

I do think it would be kind of fun to chat on what we are eating.

My goal is to do a push up that doesn't look like an elephant with my but in the air. To lose 5 pounds would be nice but to maintain the lose I have from the amazing race would also be good. Did you want us to post an unrealistic goal? My shoot to the moon goal is to fit back into my size 7 jeans and workout 25 days in the…

I learned not to eat that crap. I am having a great salad with lots of chicken on it and Balsamic vinegar. Not a little salad but a big salad. Last night I made bean soup for dinner. Very good. The big carb in it was carrots and the beans. I really don't like noodles and potatoes in my soup or chili. I call them low…

Your food eating can't be any stranger than mine. I put many things on salad for starts. When I see things like an english muffin with 1T peanut butter I just think I will be hungry in an hour from the chemicals in this.

I am 57 years old and have pretended to workout to jillian off and on for a while. I started this program a year ago and quit after the first week. I am ready to try it again.

I made bean soup. I did soak my beans. Turned out great. I used a powder bone broth.

I am 5 foot+ Age: 55 Heaviest: 170 Lowest: 118 Current: 128 Goal: 105-110

I stopped counting and logging calories and eat high nutrition. You can call it a form of self guilt but somedays it just takes to much time to log everything. We all know what isn't working. I am still trying to figure out the nutrition value of a English muffin, There are many things that aren't bad in calories but don't…

I am feeling a lot better about skipping breakfast after reading these post. I do break the fast with coffee. I just like to kick back and enjoy quiet time with dear husband with a cup of coffee. Coffee on the deck in the morning or around the campfire with friends. I have to think the last time I had cereal in the…

I tried to join. I thought it would be fun. I am kind of a computer person could you have a date that is causing problems. The warning says this registration type not supported but I am able to post here. I search with firefox. Internet Explorer is a no too.

I got that double rack of ribs from Sams. It all fit and 35 min in my pot. It did take me an hour on warm to do a release. I had other things to do. Worked great. I stuck them in the oven to sauce them off. Worked great. I heated oven to 425 and then turned off when I put the ribs in. Make sure you only leave in oven for…

Thanks

Wt. tracker I tried to do my final weigh in. I am so excited. I broke out of the 130's and finished the race at 129.8 and it wont let me log it in. What a race.

I can't believe that we are at the end already. In a big way I am happy to be the end of the logging but I will miss the group.. Thank you to all our group leaders. My goal till the next challenge is to not gain back any of those pounds. I had a great time and feel great. If we do this again I would love to be on team4…
