Working out when all those hormones are shooting through your body will really help. At least walk. Get your favorite music before you go. Sometimes when I feel unmotivated or sluggish, I grab my cell phone and go for a walk around the neighborhood. If I have a funny text conversation for an hour, I don't even realize how…

Don't eat if you are not hungry. BC :)

In Kickboxing class, we do 4 punches 2 push-ups x 1 minute. We are always trying to beat the instructor in repetitions. I am at 12 in a minute. This is a killer workout. BC

Are you eating carbs? I notice the days I limit my carbs most, I am lethargic, hungry constantly and grumpy. I love organic whole grain breads, Kashi cereals, brown rice, oranges, apples. And I am losing weight. Don't let anyone tell you carbs are evil. It is just certain types and the amount. BC

Leg lifts, scissor kicks, double leg circles, and any exercise where you engage your core and lift, move, thrust, circle your legs.

Bugsy Old State Route 74 That is the worst stripper name ever. I want to be Brittany Cocoa Caramel. Hahaha

Hi. Definitely realize why you are losing weight. Do it for yourself, because you are important and you love yourself. Give yourself the best. And expect the best from yourself. Simplify your diet. Eat whole foods (fruits, veggies, nuts, beans, turkey, egg whites). Log everything edible that you put in your mouth. Be…

Hi! I have been on for about 30 days now. MFP has really helped me become responsible for everything I am eating. I had problems before binging and eating late at night. My tips 1. Keep a positive attitude about it. Everytime you log be proud of the good choices you are making. If you cheated, own it. And do better after…

Hi. 5'3" SW 223 CW 201 GW 150ish I am becoming a martial arts professional so I am not sure what my goal weight is exactly. I know in high school playing varsity basketball I was in great shape at 160. So we will see.

Congratulations! You are so handsome. Keep up the good work.

It is hard to see people blatantly hurting themselves. We need to make the difference. We need to get involved in programs and organizations that work to help people be healthier. Make a difference.

Hi. I don't know too much about 30 day shred but from watching a few clips online it seems like the knees get a lot of work. The increased pain and discomfort could be coming from overwork or improper alignment. You might need to lay off the 30 Day shred until you lose some more weight or until you strengthen your thigh,…

Hi. I practice Kung Fu. We have lots and lots of forms. Which I love. It is like dancing but with martial arts. And you are learning to strike and defend at the same time. Maybe you might consider trying a martial art that includes forms if that is what you enjoy.

I love the school. It is simple, functional, open, inviting,and we have great mats.

I practice Seven Star Praying Mantis Kung Fu which is all about speed and low stances. So losing weight is a plus and a necessity which is one of the reasons why I am losing weight.

I want a WaveMaster soooo bad. My instructor told me to wait. :)

In class, I never stop sweating. And my instructor does not let us stand still very long. When we are doing weapons is the only time we have rest. My instructor said I could wear an HRM in class but not while "playing hands" or sparring. I am thinking about it seriously so I know exactly what I am burning.

Hi. I train in Seven Star Praying Mantis Kung Fu 3 times a week, Qigong 5 times a week, and Kickboxing 3-4 times a week. I have been training in Kung Fu since February 2011. I love it. I get my black belt in June and I am in Master's Path training (instructor training). Excited about what this year will hold for me!

Hi. I have a red belt with a black stripe. My next belt is black. My test is in June. I practice Seven Star Praying Mantis Kung Fu.

True Legend is pretty awesome. Have you seen it?

Hi, Ladies! I train Praying Mantis Kung Fu, Qigong, and Kickboxing. Started last February. Love it all. My instructor inspires me and also my future as an instructor myself.

You have 23.6% body fat. You have 47.4 Pounds of fat and 153.6 Pounds of lean (muscle, bone, body water).

Do you cook all your food at home? I notice now that I make all my meals that I don't have those cravings I used to. Also, try incorporating more veggies, fruits, beans, oatmeal, salads, and organic bread. Fill yourself up on everything that is low calorie. Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, celery, oranges, apples. And don't…

Hi. I have heard of it. I like the concept. I have the cookbook for my blood type. I am going to incorporate this into my lifestyle as soon as I feel confident in what I am doing right now. My mother and her boyfriend did use the outline for the diet for a couple months. They both lost weight. They were also training for a…

I believe I will be at my goal weight at a size 6-8.

Each person will be different. It is not bad to eat before and it is not bad to eat after a workout. For me, I will eat 3-4 hours before training. I get sick easily if I have any food in my stomach while I am training. And I almost always eat within an hour after training. You should listen to your body and eat when you…

I would go back 400 years ago to learn Seven Star Praying Mantis Kung Fu from Master Wong Long in the Temple Laoshan in Shandong, China. Of course, I would have to be a man.

Congratulations. You have done amazing. I cannot wait till I can make my post in Success Stories.
