Jamie - I've heard that the row machine is good for your upper body workout but...it's so boring for me that I only last like 15 minutes on it...plus I have no coordination so I don't think I'm really doing anything...I love kickboxing, I'm finally going to sign up for a membership at our local YMCA...I can't wait to start…

Good morning everyone! Great job on all the workouts!! I didn't have time to work out yesterday but I feel I did a darn good job on eating...I'm going to make up for it and go bust some butt in the gym today. I hope everyone has an awesome day today! CMR - I love the new pic, you look gorgeous :heart: Chanty - I'm an Econ…

Adopt4 - Love the new do! Li4G - You did a great job on A4's hair..and yay for the smaller size..I can't wait to go get some girly shirts too! Chantybear - Love the new do and you look fantastic with or w/o make-up! Good luck on the midterm, I'm in the same boat. Swignal - Hope you feel better, what did you have at Taco…

StillKristi - Have an awesome trip! San Diego is awesome..I use to love driving down there when I lived in L.A...I didn't know you could post on the blackberry to the website...I tried getting on here from my blackberry once and it seemed like it was too much for my phone to take.

Lulu - Thanks for your post. It's inspiring to me. I'm one of those that wants to just wake up fit ~ I know in my head that it's not going to happen...one day at a time. Thanks for all your wonderful and supportive posts! Adopt4 - Great job on the sit-ups! It's hard for me to keep up with the posts...what's the sit-up…

Welcome all new team members and great job to everybody for sticking it through every week! I've been on hiatus for a couple of weeks but I'm back! I ran my 2nd half-marathon yesterday and I feel awesome. I've gained a few pounds but I'm not going to get discouraged! Hope everyone's having an awesome Monday so far...I have…

Maaaannnn...just checking in ~ looks like I have a lot of posts to catch up on. I hope everyone's having a successful week...I feel like I'm falling off again...I've been exercising and trying to eat right. The scale hasn't budged...not even a "point something pounds". It's getting me down. I have to be a bridesmaid for my…

Welcome Dwray! ~ THE Team has the most awesome people and motivators around. Lulu - That's cool about your son, I love folk rocky type of music - I hope you guys have a blast. CM - I didn't lose any weight but I think I'm going to start measuring myself. I never did that before..so I think I'm going to do what Chanty does…

Man I didn't lose any weight but hey ~ I didn't gain any either...I will try harder this week. Congratulations to everyone on the weight loss!!!! Thank God it's Friday :drinker:

Chanty - My husband and I wanted to do the Disney marathon too - we're not but one day we'll go down there...with all the talk about the HM from CM and you ~ I think I'll get one, I'm looking on Amazon tonight. Sheila - Great job and sticking it through and dropping another 5 pounds! You'll soon inspire your sister and…

Oh no :noway: !!! I never knew that...I always put in the weight that I want to weigh instead of my actual weight, does anyone know if that affects the burned calories shown? Good to know tho, that'll just make me work longer and harder so I can make sure I don't underestimate the calories I burned off.

Tell me how the hrm works out for you...I've been wanting to get one but I'm not sure if the money would be worth for me. I heard a personal trainer say that there's different heart rate levels that you always want to keep at when you're trying to do certain things like, build muscle or burn fat..so confusing!

That's so awesome Sheila! Especially about the part of you doing four miles and then doing some more gym work..I did four and called it a day..Great job!

Hey Team - Good morning! I hope everyone has a fabulous day. Hopefully I can convince myself to run 5 miles today...I'm doing my second 1/2 marathon next Sunday. I'm excited. Hopefully I'll be able to come in by my second hour. I just ate a really big breakfast, but I figured that I should eat my most in the…

Chantybear - I hope your day's going better today! :flowerforyou:

StillKristi- U're so funny!!! I definitely feel teary when I start to think about the treadmill...I think it's just extra oxygen getting to my brain. I'm 27 years old...you think I'm starting menopause early?!...I hope I have a couple of years so I can pop out a few kids..I heard something about them being cute and…

I think 1500 cals is better, especially if you exercise. You never want your body to think it's going into starving mode..I take multi-vitamins and fish oil. Hopefully the calorie uptake will keep you more energized. I'm not sure about the weepy part, I get weepy but I'm not sure either. Sometimes I'll be running on the…

Thanks Nitag!

Actually I have two chihuahua's but they have the same mentality...both holy terror's and they think they are supersized. I love em like my they are real kids tho.. do you know when the next team's weigh in is? The 19th is a Thurs..is that the new day?

Swignal - I hope everything turns out okay for the lump! You shouldn't feel guilty about what you eat, especially since you stuck to your calorie count and only had one slice of pizza. It's just going to stress you out and make you retain or even gain weight. I heard stress is a big factor for women when trying to slim…

Hi StillKristi - I fell off for a minute but I'm back! Taking Lulubar's advice, I'm loggin in everyday and checking in with the team. You guys are great!

How long do you stretch for? Stretching for 5 to 10 minutes might be fine for a pre-workout, especially if you start your exercise off slow to warm your muscles. Post-workout, you might want to try spending at least 20 minutes on doing deep stretches. I usually spend 30 minutes after cardio or weight training for stretches…

Hi Team - I've been lost but been found by CMR! I fell off big time :mad: and got really discouraged but I really want to lose that last 20 pounds so here I start again...it's a new day, I'm thankful that everyday can mean a new beginning :happy: Good luck everyone!

It was just water weight? Man I thought I lost 3 pounds but it must have been water weight because the next morning...I was 2 ounds heavier...well, at least I lost a good pound...Why do I fall off every weekend. Ugh...!!!

Oh man....somebody please help me...I'm starving and I've already gone over my calorie by 215...dang Doc Green's..I thought everything was healthy there...the "Thai chicken wrap" has over 700 kcal!!! Who would have figured! :noway:

I have lost 2 lbs...That's one more pound than I hoped for! Congratulations to everyone for losing! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Food Diary
