  • Hello, I just set up my new fitbit a week or so ago and would love new friends: https://www.fitbit.com/user/374HR2
  • I'm trying to get down to about 135-140 (so about 4-5 more pounds, depending on the time of day). My main goal is not pounds but more about how I feel/look. I'm soft and jiggly, and I want to be a little firmer around my abs, thighs, and arms. Also I want to increase my upper body strength, as I often feel like a weakling…
  • The weekend is the bane of my fitness regime. I minimize the damage by sleeping in super long (thus eliminating breakfast) and having a healthy but delicious brunch (meat and veggie omelet with fruit on the side is indulgent without breaking the calorie/carb bank). If I add one snack mid-day I can make it until dinner. I…
  • Sad but true answer: I don't. And my schedule is not even that busy. The fact is, I like to sleep in, and I like to get home by 6 so that I can cook dinner and hang with my husband, and the in-between time is work. I could easily workout during lunch, but I don't want to take the shower. So basically, exercise is not a…
  • I love fitnessista! And I never thought about using HuluPlus for fitness--great tip!
  • I had never heard of a mason jar meal, but your comment sent me on a lovely internet journey. Now I have a new thing to add to my Sunday to-do list.
  • Cityjogger, thanks for the kudos! It took me two years to gain the weight, but only one to lose it all, and this time I'm keeping it off! Also thank you for introducing me to Kath! I love recipe blogs that use a lot of pictures. Also I had forgotten how much I liked the 21 day habit, so I'm going to add it to my feed and…
  • Howdy all! I've been a corporette reader for two years and I'm a regular poster on the site. I'm maintaining weight I loss through myfitnesspal. I kinda fell off for a bit and gained a few (3lbs) since I last started logging, and when I saw that this group existed I thought it might be a good way to get back into my…
  • Week 1 day 1 complete, and I have to say, I am really going to be able to use this routine as I have a loooong way to go. Here are my stats: Push-ups 2, 3, 2, 2, 9 Sit ups 15, 18, 10, 10, 23 Squats 3, 4, 3, 3, 16 Plank 30 seconds (maybe I should do this one first from now on?) Dips - (haven't started these yet, have to…
  • Thank you Meerkat (love that name:smile: )
  • This is such an excellent idea and right up my alley because I've wanted to increase my strength. I've downloaded all the apps and plan to start tomorrow morning. I can't do a regular push-up, does anyone have links to an online tutorial on how to best attempt incline push-ups? Something with pictures or video would be…
  • I'm off topic, but I've found that my favorite chain choice is the IHOP chicken Florentine crepes with no Hollandaise and no cheese. SO tasty and I log it as if I had the Hollandaise and the cheese just in case my chef used extra butter or oil!
  • Salt, pepper, grill, then mango salsa on top.
  • I haven't started to maintain yet (still losing, though not on purpose because I feel I've pretty much reached my goal) and I've been eating between 1800-2000 calories per day. I'm 5'9" and 149 lbs as of Saturday.
  • Last night I watched week 1 the whole way through and thought "that looks like cake, I could do it with one hand." Today I did it. First off, I can't do a single standard push-up. Also, apparently I can't do 30 seconds of modified push-ups. At the end I felt it, every second of it, this is no cake, more like brussel…
  • I want to join with you guys! I'm new to mfp (used another app to track for a while) and I've been doing Couch to 5k religiously for 4 weeks (well just started week 4 today). I wanted to add strength training to my routine and I am planning to do p90x when I'm closer to my goal weight, but as I can't do a single standard…
