Level 1 Day 5 done today :)...I'm pretty sore because I am in Week 4 of C25K as well. I have a love/hate relationship with each 30DS workout, haha. I can't wait to take measurements in a couple of weeks. Good job everyone! Feel free to add me for support.

My goal is to lose 58 lbs total so feel free to add me :). I also want to be in the "healthy" BMI range which is actually quite a low weight for me since I'm only 5'0. I would love to provide support along your journey!

Feel free to add me...I cook our meals 4-5 nights a week and I love it :)

I agree with this post. The ingredients list prove that most "big brand" frozen meals are chemical laden and terrible for you, despite being low in calories. Make your own frozen meals by cooking something and freezing it in several individual portions. This way, you can use real food, no chemicals, and control everything!…

I just finished Day 4 today! I wore my heart rate monitor during a couple of days and for my weight/height, the calories were similar to the "Circuit Training, general" in the MFP database for 20 minutes. That's what I have been using since. Everyone will be different based on their stats. I am going to keep checking in…

Also, I would avoid the powerade drinks. Get potassium from other sources like bananas or coconut water (for the muscle aches). The powerade is only going to keep your body craving sweet beverages and powerade isn't good for you (as they may advertise). Part of my success in quitting diet soda was stopping my cravings for…

I quit diet soda cold turkey about a year ago and I haven't had soda or cravings since! Drinking tea helped if it's the caffeine you want. Avoid other carbonated beverages for a while because it will make you want a diet soda. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought and an unintended benefit is that it costs less to eat out…

I usually get a smoked turkey sandwich on honey wheat (instead of country miche) which is around 400 calories for the sandwich. You can choose an apple as your side instead of chips or bread. Sometimes, I get the half smoked turkey sandwich and half of a salad with fat free poppyseed dressing or a cup of soup. I hope this…

Feel free to add me too :). I love motivating new friends. I'm a 28 year old graduate student.

I have a Polar FT4F and I love it! I bought it on Amazon for around $70. It was definitely worth it to me to get a more accurate reading of how many calories I am burning during workouts. Just make sure you read the instructions on any HRM and rinse the electrodes after each workout. Mine stays very accurate and I never…

I love this post and I agree with it wholeheartedly :happy: . There are numerous things that "work" when losing weight but you won't make a lifestyle change unless it is something that fits you.

This is so true...we have worked a lot with a dog behavior specialist for our dog and she's doing amazing now! I suggest hiring a professional and stopping the punishment immediately. The behavior will only get worse (proof is that you have been using punishment and the behavior is getting worse). Dogs love any attention…

I hate really bad days like that. On a really bad day you often feel out of control and pretty much the only thing you are in control over is what you eat. You can choose to eat healthy and feel good about your choice when everything else seems crappy no matter what you do. Just an idea. I always make myself feel worse…

I am 28 years old today and barely 5'0...so glad to see so many other people my height! Almost all of my friends are at least 5 inches taller than me :(
