To clarify I can lift weights. Like for arms, legs etc. I am basically 100% back at the gym but find some of the ab machines are tough to do. I can do planks, squats etc.... At this time (healing stage) I would prefer to use my own body weight in the exercise.... I have tried the normal sit up, crunch and so on but am not…

Thanks for the laugh today!:laugh:

O MY DONT be sad!! It is all water weight and will be gone as fast as it came! DONT get on the scale for 1 week and you will be super happy--stick to what you have been doing--get healthy and dont think about a scale!! Give your body time to process all these fluids-it will be FINE!!! Smile and be happy about your…

Wellllll i have a scale at home and as much as i would love to deduct like 5 lbs min when ever i do have clothes on and am weighing myself, in actuality it seems to make about a 1-2 lbs difference. As for am to pm weights i dont know the difference but if you are always weighing yourself at the same time you should be able…

Hi! I am Heather and new also! This site is the best! Seriously it makes me so motivated and its fun to lose weight-all of you are wonderful!! Thanks to all of you that post on here :)

HAAA i kinda like the dont put out answer the best :) LOL

Hi! One thing that may be fun is the workout tape sweatin to the oldies. I remember doing it in the basement with my mom and her friends and it was really fun. Only do the sections that you are able to do for now and slowly work in more. Have your kids do it with you! I loved it. At a young age it got me excited that…

Thankyou all for your help and its nice to know that i am not the only one!

i think one of his biggest problems is that he thinks if i lose all this weight then i can leave him for a younger skinnier version! So dumb! I am doing this for me and my health! I guess i just need to sit him down and tell him that. Also one by one start throwing away all the fat snacks in the house :)

Glad i am not alone! My hubby is a very unhealthy eater also and to be honest could lose a few pounds himself so i figured he would be onboard completely! uggg! That has to be hard having your man gone for so long! If it makes it any easier we all APPRECIATE his and your sacrifice-the military men and their families are…

So i decided that about a week ago that this was the last week of mommy fat Heather and i was going to strive for a new healthier skinnier me. I want my old pre baby body back! I have been doing so good! I have lost about 4 lbs and am really motivated to keep going! My only problem is that my hubby isnt really behind this.…

This is my first week too! I feel so ready right now but i hope that motivation sticks around! Me and a few friends started a "club" that whoever loses the most body fat % by April 1st win's the entry fee ($30 each member). Kinda sounds silly to bet on weight but it has been great motivation! Keep up the great work!

WAY TO GO!! Thats GREAT!! Just stick with it and the pounds will drop!!:

Thanks guys!!

I think the ticker is so cute! I went to the correct page-made one- but now when i add a comment to a board-mine doesnt come up. What did i do wrong? Thanks! Heather

Way to go!!! Keep up the positive attitude and when your feeling down turn to your friends on MFP! We are all cheering for each other! YEAH!
