BUMP BUMP BUMP!!! Shoot everyone needs to see these!!! GREAT JOB!! You can tell a HUGE difference!! And like I already said, your before pics look great, but those after pics... holy smokes!!:smokin: Your shoulders look amazing!!! and your butt looks really great!!! everything looks great actually, but those are the 2 big…

be happy you are losing 2lbs a week!! I have been stuck at the same weight for the last 3 weeks!! and I have been working out more and not having cheat days. I would LOVE to be back to losing 2lbs a week!!! That really is the healthiest way.. Besides if its possible to lose 5pounds a week, its possible to put it right back…

This might not be the advice your looking for but I firmly believe that one *cheat* day a week is okay!! I almost always have a jumbo margarita one weekend night on Date night with my husband.. and that thing is about 1/2 my daily calorie intake! and I usually scarf down chips and dip too.. You should eat a light dinner,…

This is totally true for me!!! I ran 1/2mile today, took me 4.5mins and I burned about 50cals. Then went the same distance, walking slowly (15mins) and burned the same amout of calories! I couldnt believe it!

Not sure about treadmills, but my Elliptical is wayyyy off! I bought a HRM and during one intense 30min workout the elliptical said I burned 510cals, my HRM said 299, and MFP said 310. So I would go with what MFP says since it was pretty accurate for me.

Thanks for the advice! I am definitely planning on increasing my calories a little to see if that helps. Im really nervous about upping them, but before I decided to live a healthier lifestyle I was eating about double my current daily intake, so I am assuming adding a couple hundred extra wont hurt too bad! I feel like I…

I have been wondering this too because I eat a lot of fruit. I googled it, and found that 40g per day of "added" sugar is okay for non-diabetics. Also, what I found online (clearly not perfectly reliable) is not to include sugars from fruit, like your banana. When eating sugar from fruit, I read its okay not to exceed…

I definitely see a difference!! Keep up the great work!!!! you look great!

Meeee too!!!! I HATE FB now!! I am always on here stalking people's success's and blogs!!:drinker:

Heres what I have been doing.. I read it is best to eat every few hours and I eat a very small dinner by 5 and then nothing before bed. I get most of my calories during the day and eat very little for dinner (or atleast try) 7am ~300cals for breakfast 9am workout 10am ~200cal snack(protein) noon~300-400cal lunch 2pm…

Thanks!:smile:

This was my lunch today!!:smile:

OmGOSH! I drink ALOT of water during the day! I thought it was good to go overboard on it! I drink anwhere between 18-26glasses so I am drinking MORE than my body weight in ounces.. Wow.. guess Im going to have to cut back! Thanks for posting this..

I memorized all the ab moves that I liked from the Ab ripper X and I usually do them a few times a week.. I am thinking about just doing the Plyometrics once a week.. that was the one that I really Loved/hated:wink: the most!

I really like seeing results as quickly as I have been seeing them, but I have no problem dropping down to only having to see Jillian 3 times a week instead of 5-6.. :wink:

I:heart: you!!! and am soooo proud of you!!!! I want to do that!! After watching my sister do the half marathon I thought "hey if she can do that then I can" lol.. but honestly I would be proud of myself if I just did a 5k... Way to go BB!!!! :heart: :smooched:

I thought it was public!! thanks I will go check my settings! its so irritating to me!!!

haha! thanks!! Guess I do look kinda pissed in those pics.. I really am happy!! I will make sure to smile next time! :happy:

I am done with Photobucket.. heres a link to my blog with pics!!! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/patssarah/view/15-pounds-lighter-half-way-there-85082

wow! You only lost 10pounds?! That looks like more! thats a great difference in just one month!! Congrats!! I can really see it in your stomach alot!!! and the fact that you look happier in the new pictures!! :) Keep up the good work!

Uggggg:ohwell: I hate the idea of eating more to lose the weight, but my weight loss has slowed down a lot. Guess now I know the reason, thanks for the advice, I really am clueless on this whole getting healthy thing, Ive been pregnant and having kids the last 5 years, and now Im on damage control trying to become a…

You already know I have had a crush on you for years!!! I still cant believe the difference!!!! I :heart: you Big Boi!! I hate to say it but I think you need a new nickname!! Something like milf or skinny minnie!!! :smooched: Love, Andre :tongue:

Thank you everybody for your advice! I will definitely pick atleast one day a week to "take it easy" As far as my eating, I really dont want to go over my alloted 1200 cals. Even when I burn a lot of extra cals, I still dont want to eat them back because I think (maybe I am totally wrong) that the weight will come off…

Day 3 was the first day I could finish without pausing for any breaks! it felt "easier" I am still doing half modified push-ups, because I have better form & control with my knees down.. Im not expecting to see huge weight loss number from it, I am very hopeful to see inches coming off though!

Thanks!!!! yall really see a difference??!!! Yayyy!!!! :blushing: sorry.. first attempt posting pics, major FAIL! [img][/img]

I am on day 3 of her 30day shred, and already can feel a difference in my body. Day 1 I could barely make it through, I stopped and rested towards the end of some of the reps, but today I made it through without resting (I still do the modified push-ups) but I feel stronger, and its ONLY DAY 3! I totally recommend it!

Yes I am!! and its actually bad because we have a baby who still likes to wake up once or twice a night and my poor husband has been getting up and telling me the next day I was snoring and making no signs of movement! ooops ;)

You look amazing!! Congratulations!!!!
