My aunt and grandparents on my father's side had cancer. They all passed away. My grandfather on my mother's side is a cancer survivor. That's great about your mom!

Dead Man Walking

Wow you look awesome! Great job!!

It depended on the person. My fiance noticed by 10 lbs, my immediate family noticed by 15 lbs, and my extended family and friends noticed now that I'm getting closer to 20 lb. Don't worry they'll notice and also some people may not want to bring it up because it can be a touchy subject for some so they aren't sure how to…

That's sounds pretty good, I've slacked on the sit-ups and push-ups... well in a way. I've actually been scolded for doing them by my chiropractor. Man, for being 25 I sure have a lot of health issues :laugh: I'll get back to everyone if I have any ideas. Anyone else can also come up with challenges don't forget!

You sure can, everyone had editing abilities on the spreadsheet just add to the first line available. :happy: Thanks for the info on the water bottle, I think I'll be picking one up!

Well, depending on what you are already doing, you can always mix things up by eating back exercise calories or doing new exercises. You can read this link which may help. http://fitnesswithnatalie.blogspot.com/2011/05/most-dreaded-word-in-weight-loss.html. When it comes to belly fat, I'm sure majority would raise their…

I feel you guys, I've been wanting to eat constantly. However, I'm still sticking to my cals so I'm okay.

I've seen people on here not weigh themselves. I think there is a group focused on not using the scale on here. However, muscle doesn't weigh more than fat. They weigh the same. Another good way you can see change is through progress pictures or measure your lose. Good luck on your journey! :drinker:

Bump!

Bump!

Um okay, I know I'm a co-leader of the group but I just want to say.... *takes deep breath*... this is hard for me to say. I CAN'T stand this November challenge! Thanks to what happen to me this month, I felt like a lazy @$$ for not getting my exercise mins since before I would get a good amount of mins in a week aaaaand…

Welcome all new members! Glad to see so many faces. :bigsmile: This is excellent!

I live in Indiana, work in downtown Chicago. I hate the snow. I think every year that passes I hate it more. I like it for about 2.5 seconds when it makes the scenery look nice but it gets old really quick. I hate driving in it, I hate walking in it. I hate when I have to walk where there is a lot of ice and you worry you…

Fantastic!!! Anytime!

Welcome all new members! Glad you are here! :drinker:

Oh no, you can absolutely stay! I wasn't really sure where to cut off what is considered short, we'll because everyone is taller than me lol. However, no you are more than welcome to stay. I believe you may be the only male. It adds a nice dynamic. Hope we don't scare you off lol. Welcome to the group!

No problem! Let us know if it works ;)

I didn't know what it was until a friend of mine did it... I don't know if I could survive lol.

Hahaha! I'm sure this was our motto when it first became printed lol.

Hey! You're a real live girl! lol

Psychology and a professor! Amazing. I just graduated with my Masters in Forensic Psychology and currently teach grad school for psych.

Hallelujah!!!!!!!! After 2 weeks of illness... I was able to exercise today and didn't die! Yeah me! :smile:

Nope, never tried the Tae Bo. Are you currently doing Tae Bo or thinking about it?

I'm doing the jump in the air and hit my feet together! I don't know how to add those fancy icons people use that aren't in the mfp database. LoL Glad you guys like it!

Well, perhaps while you're spending time with the hubs you guys can do a walk or workout together. I'm not sure how your schedule looks but take about 15 or 20 mins doing a quick workout in the morning or before bed if you can.... Or, just keep reminding yourself to set out 30 mins for something. Think about how many half…

Oh fancy! In season as well with Thanksgiving around the corner.

Info is in the challenge thread. Welcome to the group!

Each week individuals are to shoot for 150 mins of exercise (you decide whether you count it as exercise) and also to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day throughout the week.

Nitalynne, No problem for relocating the group. Sorry I had to delete that post. Once I created the new topics it pushed the welcome one to the bottom and I had to redo it. :happy:
