  • I am thinking of trying the paleo diet, and keeping it gluten free. I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease when I was 19 and was diagnosed with Colitis three months ago. I feel like my body is telling me to start listening to it more, but I am quite stubborn. Anyone had success with Paleo? ~ And how long did it take for you…
  • Hi everyone! I just saw this thread and thought it would be perfect to start it now that it's the beginning of August and I just bought a Fitbit :) I have 75 pounds to lose total and would love to have more energy...I teach middle school math and need as much energy to keep up with my kids as possible :) My biggest issue…
  • Thanks so much for sharing!!! Will definitely be trying this some time :)
  • Do you have a Boston Terrier in your weight meter pic? Sooooo cute :)
  • Me, too! I could probably live off sushi and it still shocks me when I enter in my rolls and they are so much!!! Who eats one roll in the first place? haha
  • I'm doing this without weights for the first few days until I get more comfortable!
  • I just started this yesterday! That is such a coincidence :) Let's do this!!!
  • Great job!!! Looking good :) It definitely has helped motivate me to keep with it! I have 65 lbs to lose (I'm down 15) and I'm kind of getting off track. Thank you for posting your pictures and keep up the great work!

  • Bob took a full deck of cards and he had his team do the following exercises based on which card he turned up until all of the cards had been used: Diamonds- push-ups Hearts- lunges Spades- crunches Clubs- reverse crunch Whatever number was on each card was the amount of times they had to do the specific exercise. Face…
  • I really like watching the Biggest Loser! I loved the idea to do exercises to a deck of cards...definitely thinking about trying that sometime!
  • I currently am "down to" 236 and want to get down to 170. I know it's not 80 pounds, but I started at 250 and would really like to have supportive friends on here!!! I'm 6'1" and haven't been below 200 pounds since I was 18 (I'm 25 now).
  • I'm 6'1" and the most I weighed was 250, I'm down to 236 right now. My goal weight is 170. My lowest weight was 160. ~ I think it depends on how you are built. I have a small top and big hips, so even at my lowest weight, I still wore a size 13.
  • I never done one of these before, but I would love to start!: SW - 250 CW - 237.6 GW - 229 (for Dec) GW - 170 (final) 12/03 - n/a 12/10 - n/a 12/17 - ___ Lost / __ lbs 12/24 - ___ Lost / __ lbs 12/31 - ___ Lost / __ lbs
  • I'm on 1600 calories/day...I try to have 350 cals for breakfast, 600 cals for lunch, 150 for a snack, and 500 cals for dinner. I know that's not your 1200 calories/day, but I hope this helps a little if you convert it! Basically, I try to eat the most right around noon until 3pm because my body has a longer period to burn…
  • Great idea!!! Thanks for the suggestion :-)
  • I would love some help with late night snacking...I work a fully job and a part time job as well as I joined a professional women's football team two months ago. Needless to say, my schedule is more than crazy. I start work at 7:15 am and don't get home until 8:30 or 8:45 pm. i eat dinner around 9pm, then go to bed at…
