  • There is something wrong with your monitor for sure. Did you set it up properly for your age, weight and sex?
  • I logged by the database first and it was way off. I just created a workout for each routine and plug in the calories from my heart rate monitor.
  • Look at those abs! Motivation! You look amazing. :)
  • Bumping to read AND MAKE later! :) Thanks for the recipe!
  • If you have to hide it or lie about it to your partner, it's cheating. Period.
  • Take pictures! I just took some two week pictures because I was getting discouraged that I've only lost six pounds and it looks like I've lost MUCH more than that. Remember, you are losing fat but GROWING muscle.
  • I'm starting week three today! I did it about two years ago and got into great shape (see my avatar picture which is the motivation driving me now), lost 40 pounds, then over the last year got REALLY lazy and gained about 15-18 back. Took two week pictures yesterday because I was discouraged I'd only lost three pounds so…
  • Fantastic job! You look AMAZING! Thanks for the motivation! :)
  • I should add, my husband of four years (we've been together 10 years) shortly dated a friend of mine, I set them up! Doesn't bother any of us and I'm still friends with her. If she acted the way your friend is, I'd have stopped being friends with her. I have FAR more important things to deal with, an immature jealous…
  • I honestly don't think I could be freinds with somebody so petty, who clearly had no hard feelings about doing to other people exactly what she's accusing you of. I'd kick her to the curb before she does it to you.
  • I don't like them because I think, for me at least, weight loss needs to be about making realistic changes that will last me for the rest of my life. I don't ever plan on having to take a pill or suppliment to stay at a healthy weight so I don't want to use one to get there. I know so many people that have and then once…
  • I use the Waterlogged App for the iPhone. I set it to go off every hour to remind me to drink, it also easily logs your drinks throughout the day so that at the end of the day I can add that amount to my log here.
  • Awesome job!
  • This! I'd check your state's database ASAP. Also, tell the landlord so that there is some kind of record, then start telling the landlord EVERY TIME he harasses you. The jumping out at you thing is NOT OKAY. If it happens again I'd tell him (as calmly as you can) that you do not like it, that it makes you uncomfortable and…
  • This is exactly what I'd do. If he persists I'd give him a more forecful STFU.
  • My two "go to" snacks right now are hard boiled eggs (make a big batch everty sunday night for my husband and I to have quick protein when we need it) and cream cheese fruit dip. Two packages of fat free cream cheese Juice of 1-2 limes to taste 1/4 cup of Truvia Soy milk to thin it up a bit (anywhere between a tablespoon…
  • I log it as cardio and enter what my heart rate monitor shows for calories burned.
  • I'm finishing up week two of the P90X/Insanity hybrid tomorrow. I did P90X about a year ago and had GREAT results. Dropped 40 pounds and was in SUCH good shape. Then life happened and I got lazy and gained about 15 pounds back. It's crazy but just two weeks in I can already see results. It's tough but stick with it! Modify…
  • Get a heart rate monitor FOR SURE. That's really the only way to tell what you are burning. I'm doing the hybrid right now too so I'll give you my numbers for the last week. I'm currently 203 pounds, 5'4". I did a round about a year ago and lost 40 pounds, then gained about 15 back while still doing a lot of cardio and…
  • Have you taken measurements? You could be losing fat but gaining muscle.
  • We have a three year old lab/pitbull mix named Kumo: Dog Park: 02/13/2010 by antigone78, on Flickr A two year old pound mutt named Danica: The face. It kills me. by antigone78, on Flickr And three cats named Samus, KC and Hans: Three monochrome kitties. by antigone78, on Flickr
  • You should be so proud of yourself. Addiction is no easy thing to beat and you did it! And you didn't stop there! You look great!
  • Agree! You don't necessariy HAVE to take a drug. I lost 40 pounds by just eating more healthy and doing P90X. Unfortunately I got really lazy then and gained about 15 back but I'm back at it and lost 3 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I eat NO processed carbs. I am not somebody that can't have ANY carbs, I become a very bad…
  • Bay Area. Live in Gilroy, work in Palo Alto.
  • I'm a geek girl but more of a Trekkie than a Wars girl. Although, we own all the Wars Blu-Rays becuase no geek home is complete without them. I have the Firefly cutaways as wall art in the living room because science fiction ships make much better art than... ART. I have Enterprise D blueprints too but they haven't been…
  • This is the schedule that my husband and I are following. You basically do three days of lifting (P90X) and two days of cardio (Insanity) and one stretch day. So far I'm really loving it! http://www.teambeachbody.com/home/-/dl_get_file/d35f8de1-d294-4585-9b3a-1d7c5b21c37a
  • Look at those guns! Rock on! You are an inspiration for sure!
  • Thank you for sharing! I love that you didn't let the SCALE measure your progress! You look amazing and are such an inspiration! I want to be STRONG just like you. :)
  • Your pain is GAIN. His "pain" is lame. And his snapping at you is him projecting the fact that he knows that. ;) ROCK ON with the running!
  • My favorite: 1 single serving fat free yogurt of your choice. 1 teaspoon Truvia (or Agave, you really need something to cut the tartness) 1 tablespoon PB2 (or chocolate PB2!) 1 tablespoon sliced almonds Sometimes I add flax, sometimes I add a tablespoon of sugar free preserves to eat with it.
