I think I would put it under low impact aerobics and you should be ok. Just be aware - I have a heart rate monitor for accurate counts - I have found that the calories burned estimate given by MFP is high. So if you are going to use your workout calories to eat make sure you only eat back less than 75% of them . It is…

it was 20 lbs for me ... it took me more than 4 mos so it has been exciting to hear someone say wow ....

You look fantastic - thanks so much for posting your story - it is a true inspiration !!

12.4% so far :bigsmile:

Looked at your pics on profile - Great job you look amazing !

Blackened chicken breast, sweet potato fries and tossed salad....yum!

I love Gala apples and second would be a Pink Lady - My hubby loves Pink Ladies!!

I can see a difference in definition. Your shoulders are more defined and broad.

I just recently bought a sports bra - moving comfort maia with under-wire - I am an 36E so I too have issues finding support. I got mine from amazon.

bump for later - can't see pics

First of all I joined MFP with a couple of family members- we weighed in, took measurements and set goals together. My first major step besides calorie counting was replacing my sweet tea with water. That was a HUGE thing for me I think I as addicted to it now I have in moderation with a meal and count it in my calories. I…

Outside of the obvious( a race in the mud) - what is it? Excuse my ignorance but just curious what exactly it consists of.

I had an older polar HRM but it quit after 7 years so I purchased a Polar FT7 and I love it it shows HR, Cal Burned and tracks Training sessions....

Scrambled eggs with mustard or scrambled eggs with apple-butter Biscuit and gravy with grape jelly mixed in or biscuit and gravy and cantaloupe - yummmm I haven't had that 6 mos - I see a high calorie meal and a workout to follow in my future :tongue:

80 for me - great visual !!!

Yes I log everything. It keeps me accountable and lets me know where I stand for the week. I don't cheat weekly it is random for me and it is usually one meal or maybe one dessert. I think it is different for everyone though! Good luck Enjoy it !

Thought the same thing WOW.....

a spoon ... J/K - tsp brown sugar and cinnamon

In 2005 I lost 19 lbs only 6 lbs from my goal and motivation was a cruise - went on the cruise came back and completely give up within a year I had gained all I lost by 2009 I had more than doubled it. I maintained the same weight since then until I started my new journey in Jan. '12 - I have now lost 20 lbs and have 21…

I wore a dress Sunday that I haven't been able to wear since 2005. I also try to go to the tanning bed some in the spring to get some color to not burn during the summer and last year I couldn't get out of the tanning bed without my side going into a complete cramp (pathetic I know) now i have started back to tan and no…

Great Job !! It is wonderful to have the support of your spouse. My hubby and I change our habits January '12 as well - it really helped doing it together!

Cinnamon Life - Strawberry frosted mini wheats - lucky charms - honey nut cheerios - don't eat much cereal although I would love to but it is Oatmeal for me most of the time

I find a huge big difference in calories burned per heart rate versus the MFP calculation - I would go off the reading on the HRM - for instance I workout on the elyptical for 30 minutes and burned 239 and MFP says well over 300

Great numbers - I have been at it for 90 days and lost 18 - everyone is different but I have heard slower is better because is it helps you to have a more permanent mind set ....

You use either the pkg info for serving size and measurement and enter it or find info in the database and measure. I used mine religiously for the first 2 months to teach myself portion sizes and I was blown away at how big my portions were proir to starting my journey. I love it. Great tool! I have the BL food scale but…

Good Question ? Awesome Job on a healthy new you !!

This sooooo my problem too ! My jeans fit my legs and too tight for my waist or tooooo loose on legs and fit in the waist ....
