This was very discouraging for me... I felt like I couldn't exercise! I found a high intensity sports bra that I wear in a size smaller (by smaller I mean the strap not the cup) At first it feels tight but since it's stretchy it loosens up around your ribs! Until then, I didn't realize there are sports bra's that have…

This is interesting, gotta check this out, thx for sharing!

First of all, there is no workout program that will yield the same results for EVERYONE. Also, if you are following this program exactly as recommended than perhaps you are blaming the wrong part of the equation. Maybe its not the exercise but the food? What do you eat and how much? If your body is not releasing fat it may…

Wii sports??

I know how you feel but as mentioned above, that may be too much pressure on yourself which could have adverse effects on your goal. I put a TON of pressure on myself last week... yeah it made me hustle but half way through the week I just got sick. Couldn't eat, had no energy and all my body wanted to do was…

thx for sharing! Gotta try it! :D

I don't wear it with the idea that it's going to slim my waist... I love wearing it because it helps keep my core tight during workouts, which helps a ton if you have lower back/sciatica pain such as myself. I feel more pain when I workout without it. Obviously there is nothing that will magically trim your waist,…

I think its totally OK, however, if "heavier" women want to walk around in a sports bra they shouldn't get hated on- I'm quite sure they are human and feel hot inside a gym as well... if that's REALLY the reason for wearing a sports bra uncovered at the gym.

I JUST began using p90x... that my husband was insisting on trying also lol I have incorporated that into my regular schedule... I am doing the Plyometrics dvd at least once a week- that is killer. And then I'm going to use the other dvd's on my strength days based on which muscle groups i'm doing. For me I've found this…

Interesting responses... The daily calorie goals already include a defect of calories. When you work out but don't eat back the calories you are creating a larger deficit AND not re-fueling your body. Creating large deficits in calories is not the whole story when it comes to losing fat. (Not just water weight) There are…

REST DAY! You can push through and have a so-so workout... and then the following days might probably be so-so also because you haven't regained your energy and strength. Rest and sleep are equally as important to food and diet. I know how you feel- when I began I thought I cant stop and pushed way too hard in the…

Oh that is SO awesome to hear... That is something I aspire to, and I've been afraid that I wont be able to hang. Now I feel like WHY NOT try it! congratts to your success!

I thank God for people like you.

Those women are my HEROS.

Unfortunately that is usually the last place the fat leaves the body. All of your fat is NOT stored in just your stomach, its everywhere which is why it'll take longer. Do you have ANY idea how amazing it is that you've lost over 60 lbs?? Just saying!!! I OFTEN feel the same thing you do about reaching my goal weight...…

I am all for moderation and not depriving yourself of things... but in this case I say dont do it. Couple reasons.. first if you're going to spend that many calories on a treat make it worth while! Second... because it's so conveniently located in your office it will become harder to resist each time. (IMO) They sell those…

I had considered this briefly when I first saw the ad, but regardless of whether or not it is a "scam" even if it does work: 1) Are you going to [continue] to eat un-healthy? If so, than it's completely useless. "You are what you eat" regardless of your pant size. 2) What happens when you stop using it? Esp. if you're…

The definition of inspiration. I cant say I would have had that much courage. Amazing.

HILARIOUS!!!!
-
That should NOT be your way of life... especially if it's causing you so much distress. You can still have all that delicious food... you just don't have to eat a lot of it! And esp. if it's a party you can prepare for it... eat light before/after the party. Depriving yourself from these things, esp. when it comes to…

This was interesting... I got Gynaeoid: 40% and Lymphatic: 45% which actually described my body type to the T.

I do strength 3 days a week. I have 3 workouts in which each has a dedicated group of muscles rather than specific workouts. Each workout day combines upper and lower body and different areas. Ive composed a binder for myself (courtesy of Google lol) where I've collected different workouts for each muscle group. Workout A:…

EXACTLY. I've lost 11 lbs since mid feb. at home. PS, somthing like 70% of your success depends on what you eat. Good luck!

The weird thing is he obviously knows you're married... so I don't think he was actually hitting on you unless he has major courage lol I would say that was a strong flirtation/admiration... Some people have odd ways of complimenting others. But ****, either way you look AWESOME!!!!
-
Omg, these are so funny.

Is knowing the number of calories your burning going to change how much you work out? If you can only dedicate a certain amount of time to your workouts than I wouldn't worry about getting one... but if your goals are specific to how many calories you're burning than it "would" be a good idea. Also, I've seen HRM's that…

I had to create a schedule for myself because I was falling victim to this also- 3 strength training days a week. Sometimes when you don't feel like hopping around and doing crazy cardio its nice to do some strength training and just focus on certain areas at a time. And, you don't have to spend 90 mins doing it, at least…
-
Just to clarify... by suffering the consequences what I meant was the soreness I experienced afterwards. When I was drinking my shakes after every workout I felt great! But lately I've stopped because I just don't like protein shakes and I've never hurt so bad in my life!!! i feel like I got hit by a train after falling…

I can see how that would make the whole evening totally uncomfortable : \ But from what it sounds like, she is just trying to help. Not saying she's doin a great job- but she just seems concerned based on your description. Also keep in mind that a lot of people have MANY different ideas and perceptions of what losing…
