Try jump rope. It burns a ton of fat but it is hard and you'll have to work at it. The good thing is you won't have to do as much to get results.

So sorry I havent checked back in a while. Lots of great responses! So after posting this I stopped what I was doing and started strong curves. I upped my weight a lot but I am going to most likely up it again soon. I really underestimated my strength. I still haven't seen much progress but I do feel myself getting…

I have a vivofit 3 and I never take it off. I love it! Its waterproof which is a huge plus!

Because I was tired all the time and in and out of a depression. One day I just had enough of the cycle I was in.

Thanks everyone! Looking into two programs right now: strong curves and tnb28. Also, going to start lifting heavier, especially with my legs. My husband is on board with looking into a program too lol.

Yep I just worked out and upped my deadlift to 27lbs and honestly i think i could go a little higher. I really underestimated the strength in my legs. I felt it all over. It was amazing ( and horrible lol). We have to use dumbells right now because we don't have a barbell yet. So that might explain the odd weight numbers.

Thanks that does help! You have a similar build as me! I'm 27 5'2" and same body shape. Though my torso is weirdly short lol with big hips.

Thanks everyone! I agree and will look into a program. How do you know how much body fat you have? I definitely am going to stick with this. I look forward to my lifting days. It'll be awesome when I can see results but its also awesome to feel myself getting stronger.

My goals are to be stronger and look good lol.

My husband and I started lifting weights together. He made up our program after 'doing a ton of research' lol. I've Told him i think its bizarre too but he is convinced its right. Hes also the reason for this post because i already see a change in his body. Not a huge change but its noticeable to me. Probably could go a…

And also thanks for the feedback! I will look into those programs. You look amazing by the way!

Oh crap! Meant to put it under fitness and exercise. Thanks for letting me know!

I haven't tried walking yet but yeah I think that'd probably be best.

Hi I injured my knee after starting c25k a couple of weeks ago. It's finally starting to not hurt so bad so I'm going to be starting some strengthening exercises before I begin walking again. Feel free to add me!

Interesting haha. I'll keep that in mind. Mine is still very young.

Does she like to ride bikes? Or maybe those battery power cars? I'm not sure about a stroller for a six year old. My daughter is a year and a half and hates being in a stroller. So I'm always looking for fun alternatives.

Oh thank you so much for the response! After a ton of research I was thinking meniscus as well. Going to make an appointment with my pcp still. I'm so glad you recovered and are still able to run. I'm going crazy trying to rest my knee!

Happily married for four years this June. I'm a stay at home mom but I'd make him eat his list if he ever made me one ;) . Been getting into running, any runners here? I'm loving it but yesterday my knees and shins were hurting a bit. So I'm guessing the beginning of shin splints and runners knee. They have plagued me in…

Vegetarian here and would love other veggie friends!

I've read up on some reviews and people seem happy with the store and service. His advice was not to wear cotton during my run because it holds sweat and can cause chaffing. Mostly though he just talked about my arches and feet. He seemed really informed, but I am skeptical by nature. So I really needed to hear more than…

Oh yeah I did buy shoes. He brought out three pairs for me to try and I chose Mizuno. It felt the best to me but I haven't run in them yet. Debating on whether or not to take the inserts out or not. Has anyone ever tried a minimilist shoe for running? Like vibrams? Just curious. I've been reading a lot of different things…

Oh yeah I believe that if you are having issues they are definitely not a gimic but in my case I wasnt so sure. :D

Started week one day one today officially. I feel great. I can't wait to do more! But I know I better not get ahead of myself and recover. In the mean time I guess I'll be reading about running :D

Thanks!
