NaiLo

Thankyou so much! I truly appreciate all of your advice :) I just read "the kind diet" by Alecia Silverstone, and I LOVED it...its a fantastic book and it really made me realize how horrible my diet really is. Not only that, but I just cannot ignore the REAL issues anymore. We are destroying the planet and torturing…

Im not sure about pepsi Max, check the ingredients...does it contain High fructose corn syrup? sometimes I notice that stuff that says "sugar" free isnt actually sugar free....

Us TOO! its so annoying! Im in Co springs...it was so nice and sunny, warm even the day before it snowed and I had even went out to run in the morning...this is just depressing. lol

Hey ladies! Im a SAH (army) Mom!! Im Naomi, 24 with a 2 year old. I have been trying to get back to my old body for two years now...ITS TAKING FOREVER! and since Ive been working on becoming a personal trainer, life coach and nutritionist its been a goal to get to my "happy" self in order to start the career journey. I…

they didnt have it at the library so I ended up at Borders skimming though it and I am definitely excited now! I ordered it through amazon and I cant wait for it to come in. I feel like this kind of diet is ultimately my goal in life...to feel good about what I eat and know its good for the earth as well. Food is something…

Hey thanks,great idea I think I will go to the library first! :) and no im not a vegan, BUT I am looking for recipes that include ingredients without refined sugars... I dont really eat any red meat...chicken most of the time or fish. I love finding great eco- friendly products...when I can afford them lol..and I want…

My screen name is just plain stupid lol Nai is my nickname short for Naomi...and Lo is because when I was picking a screen name I couldn't help but think of how this might be what p-diddy and J-Lo went through trying to find the next name for their new identity...soooo NaiLo was what I decided to type in...so lame

She is right! Enell All the way, it has seriously changed how I get ready for a workout..I used to hate putting on two bra's..worrying about the rubbing, its a fantastic bra (and Im pretty sure the contestants on the biggest loser use them as well)

yeah its hard to mix it up when you are cooking for a family....and sometimes you don't always have the ingredients you need to make certain recipes...I use the biggest loser cookbooks, they are great too! I don't want to give you advice that might throw off your plan or anything, just know that what i do works for me…

I don't count my protien/carbs/fats/sugar....i keep an eye on them of course, i make sure i know what im putting in my body, but Instead I adjust my meals so that I am eating say carbs earlier in the day, proteins later throughout the day usually after a workout or even an hour or two before. I don't eat refined sugars and…

green tea ALWAYS after meals to keep me away from eating something sweet. I also drink chamomile or "sleepytime" tea at night before bed to stop the munching :) <3 me some tea!

While my husband was deployed and I gave birth to our first little girl, my goal was to lose as much baby weight as I could before he came home. That kept me so motivated! now that my husband is home and I am cooking for two it became a lot harder, but Ive looked toward the future and set my sights on career goals (to…

I'll do this too! I can only do 15 ! lol

aw that sucks, I bought one too a few months back and I was soo excited about it...till it didnt work either... we had to take it back and I bought a cheaper one that I was sad and disappointed to get....but in the end Im glad I did, its waay better and works really well. So maybe you should check out other brands and try…

gahhhh im soo frustrated :( I am actually very angry with my body right now...I just went to weigh myself, and its been about 16 days since the last time I weighed in. I have actually been on a diet for two months, exercising for awhile before this challenge. I expected the scale to AT LEAST have budged 3 or so…

HAHAHA!! :) oh its on lol...(and I mean that in the most non-competitive way) :) LETS DO IT!!

:( went for a run this morning ( I have only just started about a month or so ago so I only run about 3 miles 4 or 5 times a week) ...but my shins and calves ARE THROBBING this morning. I always stretch, I spent a FORTUNE on a nice new pair of Asics...and Im still suffering with shin splints :( I hope this goes away soon.…

I think you are extremely courageous, and you have more strength than you know.. to over come any and all obstacles that come into your life. God bless you and your journey :)

Thats great! When I got my HRM I was soo confused on how to use it, but now I use it EVERY SINGLE DAY! I LOVE IT, this morning I burned 977 calories in an hour and a half :) It makes you feel so good to actually SEE what your accomplishing.

YAY SUMMMER!! ....boooo bikinis :ohwell: starting June 1st-154 lbs July 4th goal- 145 lbs end of summer, August 30th goal- 135lbs

:) thank you for the advice! I just got a new pair of Asics that I was told should help, but I am still having the shin pains. I do Yoga after my runs, so im not sure if I need to do more stretching still (?) oh well, I am just taking my time, and hopefully those muscles will get stronger. I am wondering if anyone could…

hi everyone!! I have just started running, I usually go in the morning about five times a week :) I love to run, but I have been having problems with my shins :( I am going to start a beginners jogging program that will hopefully help my legs to become stronger. I will probably have tons of questions for you all! I hope…

ok i know its sort of late, but im joining in!!! Ive just been taking my time, mostly lifestyle changes. I knew I needed a goal that wasn't too far away so I can make a good short term goal for myself :) JULY 4TH here I come!!! 05/27 : 154 goal 07/04: 140 :)

I am definitely going to try this challenge, I started running but I recently starting getting a sharp pain in my shins. My knees are sore as well, I bought really great running shoes but I just can't seem to stop the shin splints. I rested for weeks at a time, iced them but I keep injuring myself. I think that this…

THANKYO!! :) im going to go buy some new shoes tonight!! I hope it helps :)

THANKYOU!!

I have been exercising for about 7 months, and in the process of moving and my husband coming home from Iraq I took a 4 or 5 week break...I started up about three weeks ago but Ive started to notice that my shins are sore and the tops of my knees hurt everytime I bend down or stand up (?) I have really high arches in my…

I agree that you should go whenever is best for you, but my husband told me once that I should exercise in the early morning, this way I am burning calories before I have consumed so many during the day. I of course have a piece of fruit or yogurt before I work out, just to make sure I have lots of energy to keep up with…
