  • Hi everyone! I've started and stopped so many time, it is hard to figure out my true starting weight. My highest was on the day I delivered my twins...390. That was a shock! I got down to just under 300 once upon a time. I had a great support system at home and at work. Then, my best friend moved back to Texas, and things…
  • THIS. I dislike working out. I hate being sticky and sweaty (and I am a big-time sweater!). But I LOVE food. Thus, I work out. I make a schedule for myself. And, as lame as it sounds, I put stickers on my calendar for each time I work out. I feel accomplished to look back at the week and see all the times I decided not to…
  • Not to echo anyone else, but if there is still space available, I'd like to join! :o)
  • Yay! I've lost the weight of an average human leg. In related news, I could say I've lost my 3 and a half year old (she's 40 pounds) but that makes me sound like a horrid mother!
  • nevermind...just got to the last page! have fun!
  • So there are a ton of replies for this, but if it is not too late, I'd like to join! Any accountability, and I'm all in!!
  • Hi all! I asked for and received a Polar FT7 as a Valentine's Day gift from my hubby (so dramatically romantic, right?!). In any case, i LOVE this little device. It comes with a chest strap that you wear while working out, and it pairs to a watch, monitoring your heart rate during your workout. You set your personal data,…
  • Doing my meal planning today. These will definitely come in handy!
  • I got the Polar FT7 for valentine's Day (at my request...he's not in the dog house!), and I love it! It's a watch-style one, and you use it with a band that your wear around your chest when you work out. You can't feel the band, but taking care of it can sometimes be annoying. However, I find the benefits outweigh the…
  • No, No. None of this "too bad there are 12 weeks and I am only on 7 of 12" nonsense. You just ran for 25 minutes! That is amazing! I'm Starting one of those movie slow claps, just for you! *Clap* *Clap* *Clap* *Clap* :)
  • Don't Quit. I know it is easier said than done. Believe me, I do! But you have come so far...too far to throw in the towel now. Instead of focusing on all of the junk going on around. Make a list of things that you are thankful for. It doesn't have to be anything big or life-changing. Just a list of things that you might…
  • I'm currently doing a 21 day challenge with a friend of mine who works for Beach Body. They promote Shakeology, but it is heck of expensive! I've been replacing breakfast with a Special K protein shake each morning. Because of the protein, I am not super hungry at lunchtime. I mean, I also have a snack around 10am, but in…
  • Yay Lisa! It's always okay to come home! :o) I'm glad you're here with us. I'm actually ordering the Polar watch this week! I looked into the FitBit, but found it was very similar to a step counter. I was accurate calories burned. Do you like yours? Again, welcome back!
  • This is me! Every day of my life. It has almost become an obsession of mine. Walk into a new place, and scan the room for people who may be larger than me. 98% of the time, I end up with "Yep. I'm the biggest, yet again." Don't be discouraged. Don't beat yourself up. You are making changes to your life, and that is…
  • I love that man! When i was younger, my grandmother owned all his workouts, and I did it with her for support. and, darn it, they were fun! It's awesome that he has all body shapes and sizes dancing with him, and at the most intense part of the workout, he always looks directly at the camera and says "Don't quit" or…
