Hi :) I'm 30... SW 240 CW 200 GW 165

Bumping to remember :)

Love Popsugar fitness on YouTube :)

Replying for reference :)

Noting for later :)

That's really good to know :) Thank you!

When I go to open the page, it says I don't have permission?

I work (with commute) 6:30-4:30. I get up at 4 am and do a workout at home. Then I do something active with the little one in the evening (it's winter, so either indoor dance party or monster chase... something like 15-20 mins). I put him to bed at 8-ish and go to bed myself anytime after... 95% of the time I'm in bed at…

I'm totally game. I want to start Monday, too.

Lunch always depends on what is handy. I love kale-protein smoothies best though. I also like cottage cheese and hard boiled eggs with a bit of meat. Next week I'm doing the Nutrisystem starter pack for 5 days, just to see (and I know I won't have a lot of time, so it will be handy.).

YES! In the winter I did this and had a nice chocolate mocha or vanilla coffee... it was a little foamy on the top, but I can get through that. I pretended I get protein packed starbucks every morning :) I loved it. I also make iced coffees with the protein shake.

I'm 5'9" and my goal is to touch 139 for a day (so that I can say I lost over 100 pounds), then to maintain between 140-155. I know that I looked pretty good at 170 (about a year ago), but I lost track of myself and am back up to the 190s. I would like to see and maintain under 155 for personal reasons beyond what will…

Only $1??? Not bad :) It has the interval timers? I'll look into it :) THANKS SO MUCH!

I use MFP for diet/food logging, etc. I don't like that you can't access the message boards or groups from the app, but whatever... it's still the only app I use multiple times daily (every time I eat). Another app I use pretty frequently is my fitbit app... but I have a fitbit connected, so I often look at my steps. It…

I VOLUNTEER! I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!

Right or wrong... I did... and I would again :-p ETA: PRESENTS!!!!

Just turned 29 in January... EEK! Trying to stay on track for the big 3-0... which is when life falls apart according to my 25 year old grad school friends :-p

Just did... nice :)

^^^^ Do that!!! Don't risk something like that without talking to the doctor.

"Oh ok. Great." Pretty much describes me :-p

29 years old height 5'9" Starting weight 240 current weight 200 goal weight 150 Single mother, working full time, just finished school... waiting for warm weather to get outside and play with my son!!! He loves to ride on the back of my bike :)

I weigh daily. I log my daily weight on a calendar by the scale, and report it to MFP on Tuesdays... weighing daily keeps me honest with myself... and I can see the trend of not drinking enough water, drinking too much booze, etc.

I have been on a steroid regimen, a few times in the past couple years for my multiple sclerosis symptoms, and even if I stick to my diet and exercise routine, I gain weight... not only that, my face gets chubby and my mid-section expands... I don't know if there is additional water retention or if it in some way alters my…

I have a sticker chart for my son's chores and goals... so I stole that idea for myself and give myself rewards when I get a certain number of stars. I get a star for every time I log 3 lbs of weight loss, and when I have 7 stars I get a new outfit. I get a star for every 30 minute workout, and after 10 I get new songs for…

I am trying to loose weight on a budget of $30/week for my son and myself, it's not too difficult so far to keep my calorie count low... the hard part is keeping nutrients high for the both of us. I tend to scour the weekly ads for sales on fresh fruits/veggies/meats. I am learning how to coupon as well for things. I can't…

For me, the health and wellness aspects are really secondary. My major motivation is to look good and feel good for myself. When I started, I lied to myself and said it was for health reasons and so I could be a better runner/athlete... but once I accepted that I really only wanted to feel like I looked good, then I…

I totally agree!
