I usually lift right after running 3-4 miles, so my heartrate is already up. I am doing ice cream fitness 5x5 which usually takes about 25 minutes to do. With only 10-15 seconds of rest in between sets. My Tom Tom Spark HRM says I usually burn about 100 calories for every 10 minutes of lifting, when I piggy back off my…

You can me if you like!

Definitely watch your macros, especially your carbs, not all calories are created equal!

Add me, I had lost 40lbs then got pregnant with my second son and gained it all back during the pregnancy, then had a 3rd son very quickly after. I am now ready to get back to business (and there will be no more babies! Lol) and to help push me, we decided to run the Disneyland Avengers 5k with my oldest son who is 7, and…

I sent you a request already! :)

You look awesome, good job!

That is so awesome, good for you!!!!!

You look awesome, keep it up!

Thanks everyone for the advice, I guess as I get close I will decide I how feel, last time I lost the weight I did a lot of strength training so was heavier then I looked and will do that again. I think I would rather be muscular and tone and "overweight" by bmi standards than having to look at the girl with the sunk in…

The best sure fire way to get pregnant again is to get rid of all your baby stuff! It happened to one of my best friends and I laughed at her forever about it. She was already pregnant when she gave it away and didn't know it. Then about 5 years later the same thing happened to me. Gave all my baby stuff to my husbands…

I watched a thing from one of the biggest losers trainers the other day that said when you hit a plateau to do all your excercise backwards, like if you walk, walk backwards or if you do the elliptical do it backwards. Just do all your movements backwards for a week or so and he said it shocks the muscles and your system…

Way to go, that is awesome!!!!!!!!

Just make sure to get enough protein each, other than that, it looks great!

My hubby will let me get a Mommy Maker over after I finishing losing, but I have to keep it off for two years first. That's my own stupidity though cuz I lost it all once and kept it off for a year before I started to gained it back. =(

Great job!!!!! Got love a NSV!!!!

He's a keeper!

When I am having a fat day I get out a pair of jeans I havent wore in a month or so and when they fit better then they did a month ago I usually feel better and can move on!!

Sometimes I feel judgmental, but it is usually only about my family. I think it is because I love them and want them to be health. They other day I took two huge bags full I clothes that were to big for me(woo hoo) to my sister. She said she wanted to start losing weight and I told her I would help her and even get her a…

You'll never regret doing, but you WILL regret not doing!!!!

Try adding healthy but higher calorie snacks like, grapes, bananas, popcorn, frozen fruit bar, things of that nature. Also adding more lean protein would would help up your calories.

That is my other reluctance to bump up, I have a hard time even eating my 1200 sometimes!

My favorite is the Rozini smart taste, it taste like regular pasta but is way less calories and has added fiber to make you feel fuller. I think it is a great happy medium!

There is a great website called fatburn.com, on the side there is a tab that says free tools, go to that then at the bottom of the list is one called Burning Calories while exercising. It is a great tool, you can pick your exercise, your intensity, and put in your weight and it will give you your calories burned. For me,…
