I LOVE T25 ( no I am not a coach)...am on week nine...my fitness has improved 100%...have lost inches and about seven pounds. The inches are far more telling than the scale and the fact that my core is a LOT stronger, which has improved my running a ton. Best part about this for me is the changes I feel in my legs and…

There was nutrition professor who told his students that calorie counts matter in weight loss NOT nutrition, he wasn't trying to get people to eat more junk food, just to understand that weight loss is simple math.. calories in must be less than calories out period. To prove this he ate a diet of "twinkies"(junk food)…

Jut started.. and am using all the modifiers.. so far so good...I adapt where I need to but the key is just getting in the exercise...every day...I am also trying to eat a lot cleaner...getting rid of most of the processed stuff where I can

put the scale away for a bit.. mine is going into hiding for a week or so...anytime you change a diet the scale tweaks... 900-1100 is so low I am sure you stalled for that reason...

keep at it!!!! Its a one day at a time thing....happy to encourage, nag or fuss at you LOL :)
-
bedtime is my worst snack attacks... cookies with milk.. ice cream you name it...I have begun to beat that back by being VERY careful about my calories, not having junk in the house and exercise six nights a week... usually I now have calories left over so if I REALLY want something.. I go for a half a peanut butter…

Don't use the scale as your only measurement....do your clothes fit differently? I too have thyroid issues.....doc just increased my meds....but have not lost anything for weeks according to the scale despite exercise and diet....very frustrating...until I tried on some clothes during a closet purge.... The fourteens are…

remember to talk to YOURSELF like you would anyone else you love... forgive and move on... we ALL do it in one form or another...hang in there.. you are not alone...

I do half marathons and I am a walk runner. Running completely is too hard on my body..and I burn more calories doing walk run intervals.
-
Stick with your warrior cry.. last week is gone.. concentrate on today...we ALL do this ( anyone who says they don't are lying).. sometimes it is not avoidable for a lot of reasons.. Back on track sweety TODAY!
-
I do not deny myself.. but I DO monitor myself.. if I have treats then I log it...I have candy in my lab every day for students and I will treat myself if it fits into my calories or I can exercise a bit more to account for it.. I find that doing it this way keeps me from feeling "deprived" and then going into a full…

OK.. you are recovering from surgery...that's one really good reason for weight gain.. and I can imagine it is very frustrating not getting out to run... are there other exercises you can do such as biking or swimming? This is NOT a final try...it is going back to making YOU the most important person in YOUR life...one day…

Because I work in a VERY people intense environment ( college computer lab) I am often "peopled out" by the time I get home.. I even tell the cats to not purr until later LOL... seriously though.. I have the "first hour" rule at my house ( this include neighbors, friends and family).. basically the first hour I get home is…

Our initial temperament we are born with, how we develop is usually a result of our environmental influences, nurture and our perception of those experiences. ( I teach human development). Drive and ambition can be learned, often we pickup traits from those close to us, it a natural form of imitation. people can and do…

oh and just so you know, I am a college professor.. and see students like you a lot.. and they get the same advice:)
-
I see a few things going on here... now this is just my opinion ok? One you are not eating enough calories..consistently. Often we fail to lose weight because we eat too little and the loss slows to a crawl as out bodies conserve. Two... exercise needs to be consistent.. I see you have insanity and those programs.. find…

Love the goal outfit.. for me it was a pair of white wranglers,, hung them up where I could see them every day!!!! it took me awhile but now I still do not fit into them.. they are too big.. so I will get another pair to hang on the wall.. it might look strange but it is very motivating!
-
as a fellow runner AND horse owner I can sympathize with what is happening... hang in there it is JUST a short time period of injury.. you WILL get better and you WILL start training...take the chance to focus on other types of exercise to help with calorie burn but does not include impact... hang in there we will all be…
-
GO and finish the race.. start at the front.. it will give you " extra minutes since they wont start pacing until everyone has crossed.. the excitement of the race will carry you through!! You have worked for this.. take the chance!! I suggest strength training to supplement your running and give your tendons a rest.. I…
-
start strength training.. you can make a huge difference in 4 weeks doing that!! inches just melt away

Disney races sell out quick The Disney Dumbo Double dare will open sometime in January.. look on the Run Disney site for information.. the challenge last year sold out in three hours...but the half stays open a bit longer

I am a walk /runner.. started doing half marathons to help me increase mobility and avoid surgery.... and lose weight... have several races coming up..Santa to the Sea in Ventura... Tinkerbell Half in January... Snoopy coaster run in March... and what ever else I can afford... Love the half marathons training.. between…

not sure but I like the dogs in the picture THATS motivating to me :)

ok gotta jump in here.. do this for YOU because YOU are worth it. Its tough when people feel they have the right to just dump anything that comes out of their mouths on you.. might be time for some re education for them. I have gotten to the point where I simply tell people their comments are unwelcome....sometimes they…

cooooooookies..... and anything with frosting.... when I am stressed those are my weakness
-
don't you DARE feel bad.. you went out and DID it, so many people say they cant and they don't.. you DID!! You should be proud of yourself.. keep those pics.... you will want them later. I started doing half marathons ( MUCH heavier than I am now) because I saw a lady cross a finish line... probably weighed 250 or more...…

the best thing I can tell you is that when you fizzle make a deal to go ANYWAY.. I too am recovering from a running injury and it has been difficult to stay on track when we cant exercise...break it down to one day at a time ( this is working for me currently) I know where I want to end up...so I do ONE THING that gets me…
-
YAHOOOOO and good for you.. it is NEVER to late to reinvent yourself and do what you want to do...Life changes and we need to allow ourselves the right to change and grow with it...let me tell you my story...At age 40, divorced and working for rent at a horse ranch I decided that this was not working for me and I wanted…

it happens.. hang in there..dieting is simple math what goes in has to be less than what goes OUT..HOW we eat is a choice but technically you can lose weight eating twinkies and ho hos ( a nutrition professor proved this to his class).. as long as you stay within caloric parameters for loss... so while it may not have been…
