I'm upstate ny that used to live in Florida :) I did ww for about 6 months and gave up and came back to mfp where I've had success in the past and frankly just makes more sense and is easier for me. good luck to u!!!

my current goal is to get under 200, I have another 30 to go. over all goal is to get to about 170. just getting back into this with mfp. had success in the past when I was active with my friends list, hopefully it works again this time!

@VeryKatie - i know the feeling, im kinda scared to get on the scale :(

ahhh I've done so bad this week :( I went back to eating out for lunch rather than bringing it and Tuesday I was sick and have had 2 dentist appointments after work so I haven't been going to the gym either since Sunday :( Tomorrow I will try again, bring my lunch and go straight to the gym after work. I like going to the…

Didn't have access to a computer this weekend so I'm making up for the days I missed - Saturday I did plan my next week - this week I have a new workout schedule along with I meal prepped last night and have the next 3 nights of dinners/lunches already made :) Sunday I danced to a bunch of my favorite songs in the kitchen…

so today starts a new gym workout with a new gym buddy :) she's my co-worker so we can go to the gym right from work. she's able to go 3 days a week and the other 2 days I have zumba so I'm really hoping to get back to being physically active at least 5 days a week. Wish me luck! LOL

weighed in today - had a loss of 3 lbs! :smiley:

Hey everyone! Just checking in to see how everyone's week is going so far! I did a zumba class Monday, yesterday I had to take the day off from the gym because of the ice/snow storm we got, the roads were too bad to go anywhere. Tonight I am supposed to attend another zumba class, hopefully the roads are ok tonight! This…

Hi guys! This is my first time doing this specific challenge. I used to run my own a few times but figured I try someone else's challenge while I try to get back into the swing of things. Im so excited to do this! Im just coming back from having my hand in a cast for 2 months so this will be a nice way to get back into…

it wont let me delete this comment from my tablet - will try tomorrow from my computer when i get to work lol

have u read the chris powell book choose more to lose more? its really good at explaining carb cycling

I'm originally from Rochester, now I live in a small town near Niagara falls.

hey guys! sorry i was off of work for the week (spring break). not only did i not follow my regular routine, i also had a tattoo on my back touched up so I couldnt work out. but today is monday, tattoo is almost all healed, back to reality!!!!!!! hope you all are doing fantastic, if not....it takes time, don't give…

jocop2003 - its saying through out the week to get in 2 - 45 minute workouts. however u want to do it. if u want to work on the challenges for 45 min and consider that one of the workouts thats fine. its however u want to do it.

For the planks.......you hold them for as long as u can hold them to reach a total of 5 min during the week. so for newbies to planks try holding it for 30sec increments.

the challenges are on the spreadsheet that u weigh in on. at the bottom of the spreadsheet there is a tab to click for challenges.

the spreadsheet for ur weigh in - on the bottom of the page to the left it should say weigh ins and another column for challenges. click on challenges and find ur name on the list. thats where u keep track for the week

happywitme - i see you on the spreadsheet. check again? your the last person on the list. are you viewing it from your phone or computer? some phones dont allow you to view the entire document

You log your challenges through the week. If there are any questions on how to do a certain exercise, type it into YouTube and you will b able to find an instructional video on how to do that exercise. If you still then don't understand it I can try to explain in an email but obviously watching it is probably going to be…

Please let me know if you can not access the spreadsheet, I can then send you the link through a message.

The link to the spreadsheet has been posted! I will continue to edit it as I get more weigh ins but at least now you can get an idea of what the challenge will look like !

mtbgurl had it right, the most important part is to just always do it the same way. and preferably always wear the same clothes. same as when u weigh urself, same time of the day, once a week, wearing the same clothes. so for me it will always be Saturday morning around 830am wearing my pj's lol. as far as measurements…

thanks erinlmott =D i will

curvygirl76 - im going with 32

i set my oven to broil and stick the broiler pan in the oven to heat up then put the chicken on after the pan is hot. they cook fast on broil so make sure to keep an eye on them.

jillian michaels 30 day shred is really good. i couldnt walk for 2 days after i did it the first time. or else i youtube zumba videos

I take a zumba class at my gym 2-4 times a week and use my polar ft7. Our class is 45 min long (that includes our warm up song and cool down song) and I usually burn 450 calories. This week I tried a different zumba class with a different instructor and it was a 60 min class and I burned 700 calories. Hope this helps.

royalvii - 160?

squash and zuccini are a new thing for me too, i was always too afraid to try them lol
