Bump for later

Amazing job! Keep it up!

I've been drinking chocolate Shakeology for about a year and a half now, and I am literally full for several hours. And the nutrients you get in Shake-O are incredibly high compared to how much food you'd have to consume to get the same amount. It is expensive for sure, but it's cheaper if you sign up to become a coach.…

Lansing here! :)

Good word.

Huh?? Um no. Workout hard. And re-fuel what your body needs. That list the other post-er prepared was something I'd recommend. Increase your activity if anything, but WORKOUT HARD. :) Keep it up

I don't necessarily disagree that it is definitely easier for those with cushy lifestyles to afford higher quality food, etc. Then again, those with high paying jobs probably work a LOT to make that kind of money and have LESS time for working out and being active. The bottom line is this. You can lose weight even if you…

Agreed. It'll be hard to educate people about this, but this is exactly the problem. If all a kid eats is Doritos, but still remains under their needed caloric intake for the day, obesity cannot happen. We're eating too much in this country.

Definitely train with weights as well. Cardio is obviously important, as is eating the proper amount of food. But weight training is vital as well. Keep up what you're doing, but always bring more intensity than you did the previous workout, and your weight should fall right off you, as long as you closely monitor your…

I agree. Plus they're very inexpensive. Meijer also has a store brand protein bar that has fewer calories and 21g of protein, but they're a little more money. Depends on which store I happen to be in at the time.

Agreed.

Absolutely agree with this. And just keep doing what you're doing. I get the doctor is a BMI freak, and that's fine, because if you keep doing what you're doing, the scales WILL go down. Just realize you have a long way to go. Look at your weight loss as a journey, not as a 15 minute to the store. You'll get there, and…

Haha hilarious

Hahaha nice

Hilarious!

<here's my goofy pic

Nice one!

Very true. I've noticed that too.

I'm certainly amused.

Ahahahaha the only problem is I'm quite sure it's men like YOU "sir" that watch the REAL men lift the heavy weights. Stop being an idiot to people who know what they're talking about.

Yes, it isn't a diet. It's a lifestyle of making responsible food choices. :) You can do it!! Almost at Day 300 personally! Don't give up! Sam

Nice tip. Thanks for the heads up.

A friend of mine shared with me what he does, and it sounds very cool. A couple of the things can only be done in a gym/with the right equipment, but you wouldn't need anything else for most of his routine. Run 1/4 mile (minimal break if any) 10 Pull-Ups (minimal break if any) 20 Push-Ups (minimal break if any) 30 Sit-Ups…

Beachbody has a great program called Body Beast. I have been doing it for several months now and love it.

Hahaha nice.

You can do this! Show that piece of crap "doctor" a thing or 2!

No offense, but when I look at the people offering suggestions/studies/experience-based-advice, I kinda wanna see what they look like. Because they look how they look based on what THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE. And like I said, no offense, but there are a lot of people with a lot of nicely structured bodies giving advice. I'd much…

Daaaaaaaaaang. Very pretty. How does your husband feel about all of it? (Oh, and Praise Jesus!) :)

So Beto, does that reply imply that you are fit AND short? Ahem... :)

If you have water with ice in it, it counts as 2 cups of water. :)
