  • check again in a week and see
  • I want to break the 40 lb threshold, a Kindle, and ChaLean Extreme!!
  • Before. I usually have a glass of water to help rehydrate after the night but I don't eat anything unless I plan on something really strenuous where I might need some fuel. I don't like to exercise for at least an hour after I eat and that doesn't work in the morning when I have to go to get ready for work right after I'm…
  • Probably too many, but: Multi for women Calcium D Magnesium Echinechea during the winter Flax Oil w/DHA
  • Good job! It takes a while of conditioning to get used to running - especially outside. I've been running outside for only about 6 months and some days its fantastic and some days I can't go more then 1/4 mile without walking but just getting out and doing it is what counts. Keep it up and have fun and stay safe if you are…
  • Check out this link - it gives you list of products with no HFCS http://highfructosehigh.com/no-hfcs/
  • Try inputting your dinner into the dairy BEFORE leaving work and BEFORE you eat it to see what that is going to set you back. You might not know the exact portion but I bet that if input one cup or 3 oz you probably have a better chance sticking to that.
  • Golds Gym Cardio Boxing - its great!
  • You know it is what it is and its what you do over the long haul not one particular day that matters. It takes, what 3500-3600 calories to burn a pound of fat? You can't do that in one day unless you're on the Biggest Loser and the experts say to look at what you do in a week. So take stock of the week - not that day - and…
  • Just got my yesterday and have had one every year for about 10 years or so. I haven't gotten the flu in all that time - I still get colds - you can't help that with kids - but why take the chance?
  • It is very frustrating that the site thinks you have to run 5mph before you can log it as a jog or run. If you have a HRM wear it and input your own burn.
  • For some odd reason I find it easier this time of year through about March to stick to my eating plan and exercise regime. I find Holiday's a challenge and I always can successful drop lbs during the last quarter of the year. I had hoped to be close to my goal of losing 70lbs but have lost hardly anything since June so I'm…
  • 8 correct!!
  • The best time is when you have time. It took my a long time to get used to working out in the morning but I think doing both- switching it up - is good for you - keeps your body guessing. I do find that I don't have as much energy in the morning and feel out of it for a while longer then I do in the evening.
  • NICE!!! It is great. A few weeks ago the hot maint. guy where I work said" I don't mean to be rude but have you been losing weight? You're looking slim and trim" HOT DAMN - pick me off the floor!!:wink:
  • Try swimming or her No More Trouble Zone workout - not jumping around except in the warm up and you could conceivably skip that. If you can stand on your foot you might be ok with this one.
  • maybe the choices you made last week were of foods that notoriously make us "feel good". High fat, lots of sugar - you know - the yummy stuff. You were feeling satisfied - the trick is to find those foods that are healthier that also make you feel good.
  • I'm with you right now. I just keep telling myself I can't go backwards. I'm maintaining and for me right now that if fine. I knew this would come, like others have said, it always does but just keeping my mind focused on what I've done and hanging on to the feeling of that accomplishment is what is helping me a lot. I…
  • Oh, yeah, I'm there with you sister. In my twenties my husband and I use to do regular 20-30 mile rides along San Francisco Bay. I started riding again this past spring and couldn't believe how HARD it was. I figured it had to be because we now live in CO at 5100 feet and it was the altitude. Not! It was the fat and being…
  • Colder Bolder? When is that? I assume its in Boulder.............. BTW- your mom sounds great :smile:
  • I agree with you in a certain sense. Its called junk food for a reason. Its junk for our bodies. High fructose corn syrup, loads of fat, chemicals, white flour etc. None of that is good for us. One thing I used as an excuse to cut back on the types of snacks I buy my kids is that I wanted to healthier, I wanted them to be…
  • About a year ago WWTLT you had a bath (with or without bubbles)?
  • Definitely fries! Drizzle with olive oil and spices of your choice (garlic or onion powder, chili powder, paprika, etc) and a sprinkle of sugar helps them "crisp up".
  • Good for him!! My daughter has hot lunch most days and for snacks we always have granola bars on hand -there are some pretty tasty organic ones out there with NO high fructose corn syrup in them - and apples and oranges. Also get those baby carrots that are either prepacked in small portions or just buy a bag and throw…
  • Popcorn. I probably have popcorn 2-3x a week in the evenings. I bought a Whirly Pop (http://www.target.com/Whirley-Pop-Stovetop-Popcorn-Popper-Theater/dp/B00004SU35) and it doesn't use much oil -don't use the prepacked popcorn they might sell with it -loads of calories there- and it satisfies my munching craving . Just a…
  • I use old fashioned organic oats; half water, half milk. Some cinnamon, 2 tbs of brown sugar, a smidge of butter, and some chopped nuts - whatever I may have on hand, and some raisins.
  • Unless you have an obscenely low body fat percentage I'd go to your doctor - I wouldn't think good ole regular exercise would have such an effect.
  • I only have 2 - 30 Day Shred and No More Trouble Zones. Shred it great for a "short" workout. Trouble Zones is twice as long so twice as hard. It uses alot of the same mores in the Shred workout. Either way she kicks my butt!! I don't know about anyone else but I only burn about 180 when I do the Shred -I wore my HRM a few…
  • I totally agree with you. It seems this site thinks you have to go at least 5mph before its considered running. I "run" at 4mph now (up from 3.2 at the beginning of the year). I use my heart rate monitor so I know what I'm burning and put my own description in.
  • 1. Lose 5 more lbs 2. Run at least 3x a week - I have a 5K on the 26th 3. Swim 2x a week 4. Cycle at least 15 miles a week 5. Do a Jillian workout at least once a week Wow - this looks pretty good. Think I'll print it out and put it on the fridge and next to my bed so I "remember" my goals. Ha ha!!
