i am currently changing gyms.. one of my concerns was the social aspect. i been at my current gym for years so i have seen same faces for years so i am one of the cool kids.. now gonna be a new kid on the block. i like ppl to br friendly say hello or even nod ect.. most of my serious chit chatting has came in the locker…

I always ate breakfast but just got busy in the mornings and would eat 90 cal fiber bar and coffee.. then eat lunch at noon.. somedays i would go to a am body combat time and still ate at noon. i honestly wasnt hungry.. but then i started craving donuts a few days a week and giving in or getting other snacks. i realize i…

Congrats on your first steps on becoming healthy. Take it one day at a time.

post pics.. others might notice more than you. congrats on 40 lbs!

I been craving donuts lately.. I beem choosing my less favorite.. like instead of filled long john or cinnamon roll with icing.. i will get cake donut or even bismark without icing and eat half and throw other half away.. its not ideal to be eating any of them.. but i dont think i would pay that price for that donut more…

i recently stopped eating breakfast but was doing a protein shake but recently started just eating one of my fiber bars and coffee.. i feel like i dont get hungry until noon..before it was at 10 am. i dont track calories much to know how it balances out.

i lost 102 pounds.. i too have gained. i have went a couple major lifestyle changes.. i am anemic which is when i started gaining.. i have gained 25 pounds.. i made a deal with myself if i can get my weight down to my last check in on here that i will get a pedicure.. so trying to use that to motivate me.

good idea.. i went from 272 to 170 lbs and was happy.. i passed out and disvovered my iron was low. i had iron infusion treatments.. i was hungry when passed out so i feel like i became afraid of hunger.. i had ignored dizzy spells and had several after the passing out. i know weigh 199 lbs. need to think of rewards..

When I drink them I can taste the protein powder and just can't stomach it.. plus the shakes don't work cause I am not trying to replace meals so I need them more as a quick snack on the go when I am working.

It would be hard to take advice from him and if I was skinnier or in better shape than him I might feel bad talking about my problem areas.. like how he might feel cause I think my thighs are big but in reality they are small compared to him ect.. I did take zumba classes from someone bigger than me.. she is now after a…

Does the Garmin pinpoint your calorie burn for exercise? Is it easy to set up and understand?

Following i am trying to replace my polar ft4. It broke. I bought a iron man timex watch and it was too confusing.. so I am back to the drawing board.

I been having a hard time too.. I am so bored with food except for the bad things.. try finding new recipes.. I have a cookbook called eat great lose weight.. it has some good meals in there.

It's a paper journal called create 365.. it can be sold in a kit with stickers.

I take care of the elderly.. mostly in home care and not a nurse.. but I have a client in health center and they get treated all the time.. is that one of your major issues. It would probably be mine.. I know I encounter more treats being there.. I get offered stuff when my client gets treats.

I will have to try the sandwich. I do also like Wendy's chili.

I don't know if it has always been higher calories and you were logging wrong numbers or what.. but I loved eating Wendy's apple pecan salad.. it was around 350 calories and for that I could afford a frosty too.. turns out after eating several salads and frosty's that I was logging half a salad.. real bummer.. I haven't…

I will tell you what I recently started doing. I said no candy,sweets ect for 7 days. I was eating it daily. I made it 6 days. Forgot about church thanksgiving dinner and I gave in... I had apple pie, a swirl bread with frosting. . I don't know what it was but something I would never buy and small brownie.. This is no more…

Thanks everyone. It makes sense with not progressing due to not sticking with one thing long enough. I really just need to be stronger in general. I need to be able to assist my client in moving from bed to wheelchair and I don't wanna get hurt.. Plus just for daily living like buying dog food. I really have a hard time…

You might be on to something. After a bad weekend I decided to stay away from treats for a week. Its been 5 days and overall I am doing good.

Don't mean to hijack this but is coffee suggested for energy or does it suppress our appetite? Or both.. I just recently came to like coffee but have to either use chocolate creamer or my favorite is hot chocolate.

I tried the shakes and I just thought they were pretty gross.. I am on their Facebook page. I like the extra motivation when I log on.

I had a total gym once. I used it a bit but got bored of it quickly.

My polar hrm keep breaking. They last about 2 years its why I was looking into different options. I mainly do fitness classes at the YMCA like body combat. Its possible I might do zumba or even a new class called zumba strong.. Or body attack or body pump. There has been a lot of changes so its giving me more options.. At…

Sadly I don't think I am buying anything this weekend. If I am honest with myself I can't afford it unless I use credit. It bums me out but I know I should be wise and not use credit. There will be other sales.

I didn't like it in a live class. Way too slow and crowded. I didn't break a sweat.

Thanks.. Its what I want.. Do you have the heart rate monitor strap?

I am not much of a early riser myself so the earliest class I do is 830 am.. i think if you do a early time you might draw in a crowd who can't or don't wanna be there in the evening.. I know my ymca has morning classes.

Thanks for your suggestions. I just got an ad for Sam's for a Garmin Vivoactive HR Bundle. On saturday it will be 169.00 I am considering it.

I do it at home but not often. I am trying a live class Tuesday. Come back to tell us what you think.
