way too hard core lol. sure if you add sugar or milk/cream log it, otherwise id just log it as black coffee, black tea or water. theres no way mfp caloric values when entered into your journal are right on from day to day anyway so trying to log a few calories here and there would just be time consuming. I guess if it…

you friggin ROCK... and this, this is why I love running :)

hey thats a cool way to know. good idea.

just be sure your exercise doesnt drop your net daily intake too low. ive swam, biked, lifted and i like all of them but i love running. do it anywhere, social, set your own goals. For me its giving me the best results in changing my body and my mentality. the others were good but just not the same. some decent shoes,…

Thats cool. Glad you made it :)

personally running. if you are physically able. there are loads of calculators out there to estimate the burn depending on speed/intensity and time such as this one http://www.runnersworld.com/tools/calories-burned-calculator

for me its my boys. i want to be fit enough to be able to play with them and be healthy for them and to have them grow up healthy. also now that i have started i love the way i feel and i remember how i use to feel. when i dont want to exercise i think how i used to feel and it gets me moving again.

stress for sure. personally i dont have any faith in the supplements. if i was you id save the money and put it into new clothes as you lose weight or a gym membership etc. keytones and shakeology or anything like that are diets, diets dont normally work long term, life style change does. use the app, adjust your intake…

not alone at all. i generally try to plan nights out a bit in that i will try to exercise a bit more before one and i will generally try to cut way back through the day so that the night out and the drunken munchies dont impact as much. That said an occasional overindulgence isnt going to make or break you and this is only…

likely a lot of it was water loss before or is water gain now or maybe a combination of it unless you have really bee hugely over eating for that time. Next dont try to lose 110 lbs. take a realistic and manageable goal. Say to re lose the 25 lbs or 10 or 15 or what ever in 4 or 5 months, maybe even 6 months then reassess…

eating less may cause it. make sure your being accurate with measurements and or amounts and all calories taken in, eat what is recommended and keep at it, it will break in time. could it be salt/water retention

@ eddavenport. love that motivational phrase.. thats exactly what did it for me, got on the scales one day at over 345 and figured well i can do something about this before i hit 350 (weight doesnt matter its just what triggered for me) or i can just give up and accept it.... haven't looked back since

Yep, you can do it :) 345-210 over 4 years or so and aiming for 190, this below is what worked for me and revelations through stumbling blocks ive had in my slow but steadyish mostly downward trend lol. Set goals, ralistic goals, mini goals. post em or write them down so you can hold yourself accountable. Most importantly…

hey Jenni, were weight loss twins lol.. well close enough :p

Not yet... i feel better in many many ways but im still not thin. 20-25 lbs from here and i'll be healthy.... heck i dont want to be thin :p

could be anything. First thing is to make sure you have your required intake set right for the weight and activity level you are at now. next is to make sure you still accurately journal... sounds foolish maybe but its awfully easy to start guestimating further and further from factual the longer you do it unless you do…

now i feel like ive run a marathon trying to get the pictures posted, you would think these days it would be easier lol

some time 2006 around 345 lbs, i was around this weight up and down until around 2009 now +/- 210 and a lot more active lol

Awesome :) I found getting to the first 5 k non stop was the hardest, now its hard to stop running and i frequently want to keep going firther than i should. Be careful with this as sometimes you will feel so good and think why not. I normally maxed out at 12 km or so once in a while when some friends had been working on…

Awesome, i know it sucks to not be able to run for even just short periods of time if i pull a muscle or if time just wont allow. Great news :D

Everywhere. To me each has its place Ive only been running a bit more than a year. I started on the treadmill and stuck with it until about 2 months ago. I love my treadmill! at first i loved it because it was something i would do. I didnt have to go anywhere, just put my shoes on and go. I also loved it because no one,…

awesome :)

he is... i kinda thought a few more people would take a look at this, oh well, too bad it really is worth the watch

I have watched it a few times now, he really does have an amazing presentation

yes, i get it too. ive even gotten the you look great, congrats on the weight loss and the you need to eat more from the same people... figure that one out lol do what i did.... on a routine trip to the drs i briefly talked about my weight loss with her, explained what i was doing and what my goals were, asked if she had…

similar experiences. Sitting outside the dollar store one day last year and i estimated around 70-80 percent overweigh and over half of that would have been bmi classed at or near enough at obese. I have started to notice that in grocery stores i tend to see a smaller percentage of overweight folks in the produce and…

Awesome, take it easy and slowly raise the bar a bit at a time and enjoy the results and the burn :)

LOL, same first name, same poison, differnt foods, I still do it from time to time but have learned to control it for the most part but i get you. I try to avoid shopping or going to get food any time i am stressed as i know i will make poor choices. Going to buy groceries stressed adds to the junk bought and the bill lol.…

i was around 270, had lost around 75 at that point. i started with the walking programs with slow and fast walks and worked my way through the different pre programed settings until i found them easy and kept pushing it from there, Agreed, good shoes, take it easy, go slow speed and long time rather than fast speed and…

i'm hoping you know them lol no iuts not selfish just tell her its your alone time to get yourself centered
