  • Good luck to you both! I just signed my husband up today. I really hope he does it. I think it's great that you guys are taking the weight loss journey together!
  • I'm in but I can't do the sit ups and push ups. I'm trying to lose a lot of weight and I need all the high impact cardio I can get! So I'll be doing an hour a day!
  • Wow. MFP said 2050? That seems like a bit much. That may be the amount you need to consume in order to maintain your current weight. I know it gives men a larger amount of calories. My friend is on here and it gave him a little over 2000 calories at 2lbs per week. It only allowed me 1253 calories per day to lose 2lbs per…
  • Zumba seemed like such a waste of time to me when I tried it on dvd and on Wii. It just didn't give me the amount of calories I was looking to burn in my 1 hour per day. Plus it wasn't fun without other ppl around. So I tried the Zumba class at the gym and it was Soooo fun! I came out drenched in sweat ( nothing makes me…
  • You can do it! I need to lose about 95! I have a long way to go!
  • I love Turbo Jam! You should check it out. The Hip hop workouts I've done didn't do that much for me. It just didn't feel like I was making progress and burning calories.

  • Doesn't work for me. It turns into a drawn out vacation and before i know it I've put on 30lbs! I'd try giving myself a cheat day on the weekends and maybe only working out 4-5 days per week. But if you give yourself a break on the eating you will definitely need to keep working out. If you slack on the working out then…
  • Ugh! Don't you hate that! I tried on a pair of his jeans just to see if they fit and they were TOO little!
  • Try Hawaiian Punch. They have the sugar free single packages with only 5 calories. Ocean Spray has them as well. They are great. So much better than Crystal Light! Especially if you're not a big water drinker.

  • Me too! I've done it before and lost 60lbs! It definitely works! But it's not a lifestyle change. Normal people don't eat like that daily. I'll leave that one to the superstars who want to drop a few before the Oscars or something. LOL. It's not for people looking for long term weight loss. You gain it all right back. No…
  • Wow. I definitely understand! I deal with that same thing. My goal is just to get under 200 and I'm going to have a huge celebration! I have about 18lbs to go! I just stop looking in the mirror, shopping, trying on clothes, etc. It gets pretty discouraging! But hang in there! Listen to your body and tell yourself you are…
  • I've been wanting to start C25k! I'll try it!
  • LOL. So when I told you that it didn't count?! LOL. JK. I know exactly what you mean! Great Job! You are on it!!!
  • I am wondering the same thing. I do the Biggest Loser Cardio challenge as well. I just log it as high impact aerobic exercise.
