Hi everyone...I haven't been around in awhile but I would like to congratulate all those who have lost AND those who have stayed the same!!! I know my check-in is a bit late from thursday but here it is....I still weight the same...NO loss! I hope you all have a great weekend! melissa

GOOD FOR YOU...I have P90 too...I might start it soon...it is much easier than P90X... I will have to modify the moves though due to my herniated disc BUT the doc told me to do any exercise but stop if I feel pain...SO I think tomorrow might be my start date for P90...I have been ordered by the doc to LOSE ten pounds and…

Hi everyone!!! I didnt check in yesterday which turned into bad food choices BUT today is much much better...um, I still have to log my food for today...i guess i better get to that, huh? anyhoo, the doc was NOT happy with me for not losing my ten pounds...this time he has given me three months. He told me to do any…

HI...sorry to read that you had bad day....but just shake it off and move foward...tomorrow is a NEW day! ;) melissa

Hi Esperanzas4...I am glad to have found this site...the support and encouragement is WONDERFUL!!!

Hi phed0017!!! I am glad that I have found this site too. OMG, everyone...I am scared about seeing the doc tomorrow...he had ordered me to lose 10 pounds and I didn't:sad: I haven't gained either but this doc is known to get upset when patients don't lose weight...I sure wish I had found how wonderful this site was 4 wks…

:wink: you will not regret it!! :wink:

Hi alapointe! Thanks so much for your input regarding my back problems....OMG the chiropractor hurt you worse, um, that makes me glad that I have not gone to one b/c I have not had any money to pay for one...so what exactly kind of workouts do you do??? melissa

ugh, bummer, I ate too much dinner again So I didnt leave much of a calorie deficit today but still below the claories my body recommends for me to maintain my weight...so maybe not much of 2 pound loss this week but there is still 6 days to go for this week...I will keep moving foward. melissa

yes thank you for your advice...so far I am doing okay....the water intake is not too bad either...I just need to take it one day at time...I will see on Thursday if I made a difference with my calorie counting...that is when I weigh-in. as for fruits and veggies...YES I eat of oranges/apples/bananas/spinach but maybe TOO…

wooohoooo....4 pounds!!! Keep up the great work!

I agree P90X does work as long as use the dvds & eat properly....I first used beachbody's Slim in Six programs then a bit of P90(this program is less intense than P90X)...I got great results with the beachbody programs....I lost inches...not much weight BUT inches...I think the beachbody programs are effective...you should…

Thanks for your input...I guess I need to wait a week or so to really FEEL and understand what is going on with my body...patience is NOT my best virtue:bigsmile:

As someone mentioned earlier the Beachbody videos are great...I started with SIim in Six and they are EASY to follow...I think you would like it...I LOST INCHES!!! not much weight but OMG the inches...I went from a size 18 to comfy size 14...then I did another Beachbody program P90 AND lost some pounds but mainly b/c I…

Hi realta...um, yeah I think I have my mine set at 2 pounds....hmmm, I might change it....so, it is normal to feel HUNGRY even if i have already eaten the proper portions??

I think my weigh-in days will be on Thursdays...I am also following another forum and their weigh-in day is on Thursday...besides i think a thursday weigh-in will keep me honest for the weekends...that is when I ususally eat way too much:blushing: So far I am doing okay today...but I am HUNGRY:grumble: I really want to…

Hi Kristina...thanks for the encouragement...today HAS been much better! I just have to take control of my dinner time:wink: QUESTION...(would love any advice)....I cannot exercise right now so according to the calorie calculator i am to eat 1200 calories to lose weight BUT why am I still HUNGRY??:indifferent: Do I just…

Hi Jackie! I would like to join you! i need to get my 'backside' in gear too:bigsmile: I could definitely use ALL the accountability right now...so we CAN do this!!! melissa

Hi thanks for the warm welcome! you know I started yesterday STRONG but fizzled out in the evening...uum, I ate candy, a bag of chips, and just way too much dinner....:frown: BUT today is a new day....I will move foward and make better choices today. crys, i hope you are feeling better today! melissa

HI y'all!! I hope it is not too late to join this challenge...I could really use all of the motivation/support I can get. I cannot really do the exercising due to my herniated disc BUT I will be using my Beachbody Total Body Solution physical therapy-type exercise dvd; however, most of my weight loss efforts will have to…

HI...thank you! I am SUPER excited to meet like-minded people who understand WHY I want to take control of my weight/fitness.

thanks for your suggestions...I most definitely NEED the support. I have so many of my friends/coworkers not really understanding me right now...They pretty much feel like "what's the use b/c you with a hurt back you will never lose weight" ... I know not to believe that but when you here those negatives comments daily it…

oops...i don't know what I just did...hehe...but I meant to comment about the inversion table...I did read something about that online....I am glad to learn that it is effective...did it hurt when you upside down? thanks for the advise....i will see if maybe i can search for one in my area. melissa

Thank you! I think I have a pilates dvd somewhere...plus I have Beachbody's Total Body Solution...I merely viewed the exercises thinking that I was not strong enough to do them BUT i know i can b/c i managed to lie down on the floor today...besides some of the exercises you described are on the dvd. So it cannot be wrong,…

HI! Thanks for the 'reply'! I didnt expect one so soon.:smile: I will keep your advice in mind. I should have also been in physical therapy BUT my insurance did not cover it and the physical therapy facility would not allow for a payment plan. SO, I have been doing 'some' exercises the doctor reccommended...but, I am…

Hello Everyone! My name is Melissa...I am starting YET again tto try to regain control of my eating. I know that 'logging' works b/c it has helped me before; SO, here I am. A few months ago, I fell & hurt my back. It turns out that I have a herniated disc...OMG...the PAIN! Due to this 'inconvinience" I had to stop my…
