I agree that some of the onus is on the orderer, but that being said a couple weeks ago I went to McD's with a friend (so the kids could play) and being realtively new to MFP, decided to do the smart thing and plan ahead. I looked up their nutritional info online and was EXTREMELY dissapointed in even the salad's and how…

I am proud of myself for sticking with this, and giving it 100%.

looks great! Thanks for sharing!

I'm your neighbor over here in Manitoba! :D

This is a good thread! It really makes you think! For me it was definately a bunch of things. 1. Genetics 2. Not being taught proper nutrition. 3. Loss of activity (in high school I played rugby, hockey, and did high school rodeo, university came and I studied.) 4. Too many desserts (university year I used to go to…

the other thing I'm wondering about is how accurately you're measurements are? Are you sure you're getting the same place every time?

thank you so much for sharing! I can't wait to post in this thread!

can't wait to try this! How much cream cheese?

I'm another "lucky" one! lol goes on first there, comes off last (or never!!) there.

how long have you been into that routine? Sometimes it takes awhile for your body (and mind) to get used to it. I get up by 6am every morning, and have just figured that a bit of tiredness goes with the early morning rise! Also having kids is draining! I would make sure to get your iron checked, as it turns out anemia is…

Hubby isn't much for sweets, so instead I usually get him some protien bars and energy drinks, any other interesting supplements I find that he might like. And we are going away to a bed an breakfast for a night on the weekend :)

amazing to see so many nurses on here! I'm a psychiatric Nurse, and lucky enough not to work shift work 0730--1600 monday- friday. I used to work shifts and totally remember the challenges that brought! Good Luck to you all! Add me if you like :)

what a great motivational thread! I haven't had many of these yet, but definately looking forward to it! that moment when your co/worker/ friend/ family say you need smaller pants, cause the ones you're wearing are too big!

I always get excited when I get to move up weights! (or down for the gravitron!) GO YOU!!

I found a few people that are close to me and added them! So fun! here's me age: 26 Height: 5'4" SW: 174 CW: 166 GW: 125ish

so glad to see i'm not the only crazy one! lol and some of you have had great success! Feel free to friend me :)

my DH used to be super into health and working out (before I met him) sadly he had an accident and although not physically able to do much exercise he still does what he can and is definately interested in it. I consider myself SUPER lucky to have such a supportive spouse, always watches kids so I can exercise, very…

I was going to ask how your water intake is? Are you breastfeeding? that could make a difference as far as "starvation mode". ANyways I just wanted to say stick with it, you're doing the right things so eventually it'll pay off :) Congrats on the baby girl! Add me if you want as a friend :)

I know for me it'll be maintenance. I'll need to keep logging and exercising indefinately.

I totally feel your pain! lol ALthough I try to be grateful (it COULD be wose no offence to anyone here!!)

not too exciting here Vicki is my first name (short for Victoria) Lee is my middle name. Hubby came up with viclee one day and I liked it, used it for stuff like this ever since :)

very simple for me, when my non- pregnant weight reached higher than my full term with baby #1! that was it!

thanks for the replies! I am referring to the big buff body building type of guys! lol I do have a few workout buddies, but unfortunately for me they are generally just into cardio, so don't venture into the weight room. I did take a free consult with the fitness trainer so she introduced me to a bunch of machines and that…

I'm doing it too. I actually didn't find week one that bad (only did it once thus far) even after a hard day at the gym earlier. But the next day boy did I feel both! Glad to see I'm not the only that doubles up some days! I thought I was CRAZY! lol

sorry hun, but I think it's best you wait till tomorrow!

I also just got this dvd, not sure how much I'll use it, i'm thinking 3ish times per week on top of the other stuff I'm doing, then progress the levels every other week. Anyways nice to see others.

you are an inspiration. Very similar body type to myself and similar goals. Difference is i'm at the beginning of my journey. Hope you don't mind I added you as a friend.

I'm another believer! I had it done 2 years ago. It was the BEST DECISION EVER!!! I convinced my hubby to get it done and he agrees! HIs was a mild prescription, but he says it's nice being able to see all the little details, like every leaf on a tree! I would HIGHLY recommend it to any suitable candidate!!
