  • I made the decision to have gastric bypass after a car accident and the back pain that resulted from it made it impossible to exercise. I put on an additional 20 lbs over my highest weight and was beginning to show signs of prediabetes. That was last October. I did my research and went to counseling. I have lost 65 pounds…

  • Yes - I made up my own workout by watching Leslie Sansone but I hated her music so I made a playlist with songs that are between 150-160 bpm and walk/run for anywhere between 30-45 minutes run every 2 or three songs for 2 minutes. I can do it on the treadmill or I can do it stationary with knee lifts, kicks, kick backs,…

  • Catherine (catmomof3) 211............................211.............................180 I had a bump up in my weight this week. I did a lot of cheating. No more cheating for me!
  • I'm also at 21 lbs lost. I would love to help you with some support! 21 pounds is a great loss already! :happy: You should be very proud of yourself. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Keep it up. I found, as someone who likes to eat, that exercise plus the tracking of what I put in my mouth really is the combo for the best…
  • I'm in! I'd like to be 180 by December 31, So we will weigh in tomorrow right?
  • If you're not seeing progress on the scale - Don't use it. Weigh only once a week and invest in a tape measure and check your measurements. When the scales don't show it, your measurements usually do. Thats what I do. I also have wish clothes now. Those are the clothes I wish I could get into. I can also see my progress…
  • Great job Kristi! Thank you for posting such inspiring pictures. I know the hard work is paying off for you. You look great. I'm an inch shorter than you are and 2lbs heavier currently and you look SO MUCH BETTER! 8 more lbs to go for me till I get to 199, but I see it on the horizon thanks to your pictures! Keep it going!

  • What an inspiration! I haven't let anyone take a picture of me in years but I will start taking some now - if only to document the journey! Thank you for sharing. I know I can stick with it.
  • Great job! You did better than I did! I had a similar experience with red velvet cake on Friday. I was able to say no to the cake but not to the icing. But i did count it in my food that day. Proud of you Danielle! We're on our way!

  • You look awesome! I'm still not ready for pictures yet - but that is an inspiration. Great job! :happy:
  • Great job! What a great feeling that must have been. I'm getting to the same boat with you. I'm going to have to take in some of my work pants so I don't have to buy clothes twice.
  • I'm in Huntsville....
  • I started with Leslie Sansone 1-2 mile walk also. I got really tired of her music selection so now I made a playlist using jog.fm for songs that are 150 beats per minute and boost( got to 160 BPM) for 2 minutes out of every ten. I started at 30 minutes and now I'm up to 45-50 after a month and a half. I'm not going to go…

  • There is a recipe builder under the food tab. You can divide the servings of the total amount what you make into 1 tsbp servings. If you have a scale weigh the total amount of your recipe and then weigh your usual serving. Divide the usual serving into the total amount and the recipe builder will calculate the calories.…
  • This is the best one I have seen yet. http://www.shapesense.com/fitness-exercise/calculators/heart-rate-based-calorie-burn-calculator.aspx This calculates your max heart rate too. Hope this helps. :happy:
  • I would love to be your friend here and cheer you on. I am also 41, have 83 total lbs to lose and am also down 13 lbs. So 70 to go for me. My goal weight is 145. I know it sucks to be sick at our age. :sick: Don't feel bad. It's the getting back on the wagon that counts, not how many times you fall off. 2lbs in 2 weeks is…
