  • My biggest breakthrough has been realizing just how many bad carbs I have been eating and that is why I have not been losing weight. I thought that just watching my calorie intake would be enough and I have not been losing weight....just tads at a time and then I typically gain most of it back not understanding why. Last…
  • I know exactly what you are talking about!! I had (an I emphasis HAD) a terrible habit of closing my day with a cup of hot tea and some type of sweet dessert, usually a bakery muffin or danish of some sort. I think in some sort of odd way in the back of my mind I thought I deserved it after a long hard day and besides…
  • Congratulations - that is an amazing loss!
  • 168.7 > Marshmellow peeps were chirping my name!!!
  • Sounds like there is an opportunity for you to start a Richard Simmons group!!
  • Griffin.....Pike County side!
  • No sweet treats before bed!!
  • Today's weight: 169.4 Yeah....got my weight loss moving again in the right direction!!!
  • My plan is to simply make better food choices and watch my portions. I am also forcing myself to drink at least 60 ounces of water a day. I have limited myself to one cup of coffee in the morning and a cup of hot tea before bed. As far as exercise, I will be doing Brazilian Butt Lift for the next 60 days. I may not be able…
  • I had my husband take a front and back shot.....I thought I was going to die standing there while he did it!!! I hated it BUT I would have never known that I had back fat if I hadn't of done it! My goodness, I knew I was 40 pounds overweight but I didn't know it looked like THAT.....and my husband tells me every day that I…
  • My name is Rhenee' and I am 47 years old. My husband and I have 5 children, the youngest being 18 and the oldest 27. We are on the home stretch!!! I live in Georgia and have for 25 years but I was born and raised in Pennsylvania (Go Steelers). Only one other time in my life did I have problems managing my weight and that…
  • Can anyone give me a quick lesson in posting pictures?
  • Here are mine: Bust 41 Waist 37 Hips 43
  • I definitely agree with what you have in mind as far as the weigh in rules.....there have to be guidelines or else it will be hard for you to keep control of things.
  • Hey there - I just got the invite and hope that I am not too late!! Thank you for the invite, I look forward to being part of this group!! 03/26/12 Weigh In: 171.8
  • I would love to do this - there is a Biggest Loser group and even though you can join it, you cannot be an active participant because they already have their teams established. Whoever put it together looked like they really had it organized.....with teams and challenges.
  • When I had my physical my doctor told me to be prepared for weight gain - that the average weight gain at this time of our lives (perimenapausal) is 25 pounds. 7 years ago I weighed 135 pounds and up until about a year ago I had gotten up to 155 and I will take full responsibility for that. Those 20 pounds came on…
  • Hey ladies.....glad to join you. I am 47 and had my annual physical last month and got the word....perimenopause!! I started menopausal symtoms about 6 months ago with hot flashes....the real ones....the no doubt about it ones....the ones like my mother had at the dinner table that I thought she was faking!!! I have had a…
  • I just got my DVD's as well. I did the basics and bum bum....tonight is cardio I think. I am glad to read that someone else is doing it and feeling a difference!!!
  • I weighed in this morning at 168 and had to make a negative adjustment to my Ticker.....that did not make me happy. I need to kick things up a notch or two (more like three or four or five or six......) and get at least 20 pounds off by the end of our challenge. What date does this challenge officially end? I would like to…
  • I think both would yield the same results but I don't think Tony is quite as annoying as Julian. I have tried one of her DVD's and I couldn't stand her constant warning into the camera that I was going to make her really mad if I didn't do things right or keep up. I think Tony has a much more positive approach to…
  • Such a great story and it meant more to me than just the success in getting your weight off. My daughter is currently 25 and has battled cervical cancer cells twice. She has had two surgical operations that have basically burnt layers of her cervex off and has been told that her chances of chances of carrying a child are…
  • Wow - what a milestone. You should be so proud of yourself. You are an inspiration!!!
  • I just started Brazilian Butt Lift and also have Turbo Fire that I would like to incorporate. Now that it is getting warmer and we have more hours of daylight, my husband and I will start up some bike riding.
  • Hello - my name is Rhenee' and I have been on MFP since August. I joined MFP with a friend and I lost 15 pounds and was on track but then my friend dropped out and I have done terrible ever since. I really need to get focused and I think this group will help me with accountability.....I hope anyway. Start Weight: 169…
  • There is a group called "Turbo Fire Hotties" - come join us!! As for me, I follow the schedule because I figure she put it together to mix things up in a way to give the best results.
  • Personally I think you should focus on completing one program at a time and then if you still want to do both, create a hybrid schedule. If you do both, you may be pushing yourelf too hard and may not get enough calories in for what you are burning. I couldn't decide between two programs and just finally realized that Rome…
  • Don't get discouraged.....we all experience those fluctuations buts you just hang in there, in time that scale will start moving in your favor. So dig that damn scale out of the garbage, make friends with it and keep pressing play!!!! I find myself more frustrated if I weigh myself every day. I now just weigh myself on…
  • I ordered this last week and am expecting it any day.....so excited to get it!! I also do Turbo Fire but am going to just do the 60 Day Schedule of BBL when I get it and then combine it with the Turbo Fire!
