remember though - everyday is a new day. regardless of how you did today - good or bad - you have an equal opportunity to move forward or fall back the next day... so make sure your back is ok and then forget about the past and move forward tomorrow

that seems odd that they would only do a 30 min spin portion and then try to combine it with an ab work out. 30 min into the spin class and your really starting to roll - its the second 30 minutes that truly push you. I walk out of my class (cycle and as mentioned above rpm as they are called at golds) dripping wet. Not to…

first you go to tools and creat the ticker you want. then copy the code then go to settings under there you will see an option for changing your forum signiture - this is where you need to past the code you copied regarding your ticker - once you save that then everytime you post your replys your ticker will get added once…

Welcome - just remember it took a bit to sneak up on you and will take a bit to get it back off

I am glad you liked the dress - was not sure the link was going to work but could not figure out how to paste the actual picture. I recently took a pair of size 12 jeans into the dressing room with my thinking - oh yeah ranae dream on. Imagine the grin on my face as I walked out of the dressing room with them on and my 14…

thank you :smooched:

I go to gold’s gym - they have two classes. One called Cycle class and one called something else I don’t recall- they do a class each night of the week with rotating instructors. It’s basically a spin class but under a different name. They go to seminars several times a year - have to get certified before they can teach…

Spikes --- way to go on the smoke free thing too!

I want to buy a 'little black dress' and then go out with my husband and know that he is grinning because his wife is hot :laugh: I even have the dress picked out http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3003406?refsid=228431&refcat=0%7e2376776%7e2374327%7e2374331%7e6014133&SourceID=1&SlotID=1&origin=related

Bananas are great to - they actually have more calories than you would guess and they give you that all important potassium. I also like skinny cow ice cream sandwiches - 100 calorie that I find makes a nice after dinner snack and reminds me that I can have things that besides just a salad. Most importantly though I think…

I am so sorry to hear about your father inlaw - If you read my info you will see loosing several people to heart problems got me off my backside and down the path I am now on. I hope he pulls through, and I hope for continued success in your journey as well. To quote our new president YES WE CAN!

ditto ... what the heck is an hrm?

I stay pretty close to the recommended. I don't always 'eat back' the extra calories it adds for the excer I do that day but other than that I try to stick pretty darn close. However if I do find myself at the end of the day with left over I leave it be - I dont think eating a bunch right before heading to bed has any…

Welcome !!

Thank you to all our nations veterans! I and my husband are former navy. As they say in the Navy my all those serving today find that they have fair winds and following seas that bring them home safe to our shores. God bless

I go by the recommendatons - although I set it up so i have breakfast --- snack --- lunch --- snack --- dinner ---- snack I find by spreading it out like that I feel fuller- Im eating through out the day so I don't feel deprived and from what I read this way of doing it keeps the matbolism going as well - anyway seems to…

I started not far from where you are - I was 245 and sooo heading for 300. Then I lost three loved ones in as many years to heart failure. You would think that would have done it for me but it was not until I watched my dad 'crash' in my back yard (thankfully he is fine now). I watched him and all I could think was the…

Im new to the site as well and very excited about it. I have been working my way down the scale since Jan 6 2008. I use to use the biggest loser site but they charge you a monthly fee. On top of that thier site does not work half as well or as easy as this one does. Look out world the skinny me is on her way!:tongue:
