  • Well I'm actually in graduate school, and quite involved on campus, and I got to the point where I would keep saying tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow and I would never do anything about it. When I stopped fitting into my "fat" clothes I decided it was time to make a change, and when I committed I decided not to let myself get…

  • I would go with what the HRM says because the HRM calculates the calories burned based on your own heart rate. The others make assumptions based on your weight and age, which can be pretty big sometimes. The HRM may be a little off if you don't have a chest strap but I would definitely say its probably more accurate.

  • I personally really like the GNC WellBeing brand, the chocolate is really tasty especially if you mix it with almond milk or just regular milk. And its specifically designed for women and our needs and low in calories, only 100 per scoop! Good luck in your search!

  • You have to realize that fat weighs less then muscle, so as your building lean muscle, which is why you are losing inches, you are also gaining the weight in muscle. The good thing is is that muscle burns fat a lot faster, so even though your not seeing the scale move, you need to focus on the inches that you see going…

The hard part about losing weight is just sticking with it, and this is a great way to just keep focused! And its really good advice as well, esp about the jeans part! Thanks again!

  • I think everyone trying to lose weight needs encouragement!! And you can do it!! I got away from MFP last month and gained back all the weight I lost and then some, so I'm back again for round 2! And your verse is one of my favorites, I look at it all the time, esp since I'm in graduate school!! Keep up the hard work!!
