For the first 6 months I just calorie counted and started walking around my block. Didn't start the gym until month 7 and worked mainly on cardio for the next six months after that, then started the weight training! I do have some loose skin around my middle. Not as bad as I thought it would be! Wondering if the weight…

I'm struggling with this too! It is taking me 4 months to lose 2 lbs. I have 13 more to go it's just not coming off!

Thank you. I did and still go to the gym 4 to 5 days a week. I focus mainly on weight training (about 4 months now). I work upper body 3 days a week and lower body 2 days a week. I do step-ups in between sets to keep my heart rate up. I started this when my weight loss flatlined. Even though I have only lost 4 pounds I am…

So true!!!!

.. I didn't even realize I don't do this anymore either until you said it!!!

Great work!!

I'm in! ☺ I lost 82 pounds, 25-30 more to go. I never know if I'm doing the right workouts to get the rest of this weight off!!! ...example week: Sun- 45 min cardio / abs Mon- 60 cardio (some weeks, rest day) Tues - 35 min cardio / legs (machines) & abs Wed - 35 min cardio / upper body (free weights & machines) Thur - rest…

Wow! Amazing!!

I go 5 days a week on average, sooooometimes 6......sometimes 4. I do 30- 45 minutes of cardio 3 days a week with weight lifting (machines) for about 30 minutes. On non-weight days I do longer cardio 45-60 and abs.☺ This is definitely where my dedication needs to be because although I feel AMAZING after the gym, getting…

Thanks everyone, great suggestions!

Nice to read I'm not the only one up 5 pounds this week....

What does your intense wworkout look like? I always hear ppl talking about intense but what is intense to me might not be as intense as I need to be doing!!

What an inspiration! I would love to know what calorie goal you were at and your workout routine! You look amazing!!

I felt the same way. I went to all my local gyms and did their free trial week/day until I finally found one I was comfortable at. I even had a free week at one and left before I even finished working out and never went back!

Try2again, I usually try to go to the gym when I'm stressed but I couldn't get there that night....and i can never find the motivation to exercise at home. Today was a better day. I even stayed under my calories:) Thanks to all for the encouraging words! And, just for the record ... all the candy I ate had peanuts and my…

I JUST posted about Halloween 2001.... lol

You look great!!

I would love to know how you did it??? I feel stuck :*(

You look GREAT!

Thank you!!!! I have been trying to figure that out for 9 months! LOL

Thank you :) Track ALL your food! Even when you still entering food and you are already at 3,000 calories! (Yes, I had days like that lol) I didn't meal prep but I wrote out my weekly menu and stuck with it! I also gave myself a "cheat meal" once a week. I eat out socially a lot so this was important for me. After 7 months…

I second the fiber one bars, I had the mint brownie tonight actually!

That's my goal weight too! I started at 265 and am now 210 (hoping to be at least a pound less at weigh in tomorrow) Good luck!
