  • hi ladies it has been sooo long since I have been on here. I ended up not being able to go to the gym b/c of finances and got kind of depressed. I could burn 1000 calories in 60 minutes and doing stuff at home it would be less than that. Anyway for a while I was at least maintaining maybe lose a lb here and there. Then the…
  • I don't know where you live but I go to the YMCA and I like it. For my whole family I pay 65 a month, It is a discount but the original price was 85 for a family so I know that they are pretty reasonable for an individual. In addition they have the COACH program which is like a trainer/nutritionist to help you out and it…

  • I have found that simply making healthier choices is making a big difference for me. So I am choosing cereal bars, smartpop popcorn etc. They fill me up more with less. I also really only drink water or crystal light most days. I have realized that I would rather eat my calories than drink them!

  • ok update to this mornings post I just finished my day 4 and my 4 and 2 year olds did it with me. THey had fun I enjoyed watching them. Was it as intense for me as usual no but I think it is a combination of the fact that it's day 4 and 1 was watching them a lot to make sure they weren't hurt. ANyway I didn't even notice…

I dont think the filling is too bad it's really just fresh peaches a spoonful of sugar and vanilla and lemon juice but I make a ton of crust and that is atleast 1 cup of flour,…
  • Hi ladies this is my 1st post on this thread. I have a 4yr old son, soon to be 3 daughter, and soon to be 1 baby girl. My husband works out of town so during the week it is just me and we will be completely homeschooling as of October 1st. I have just started working out again as of August 28th, after almost crying when I…
  • Hi guys i did day 3 last night, an hour earlier than usual. Anyway I made it through I think with a few less pauses (probably just in my mind) but I did it. Of course half way through I think "Why am I doing this to myself, this is for the birds?" Especially when i put on 1.5lbs when I started despite calorie intake.....…
  • I know I am a day late but I would like to join your group. here are my numbers, SW 198 lbs EW 190 lbs

  • hmlayman I know how you feel. My weight has gone up since I started too despite my low calories. I bought a heart rate monitor and it still has me at 350 to 400 calories burned. I hope it is just muscle gain and soon the lbs will come off. I will see on Sunday. well today will be day 3. I do it at night and I did dancing…

I know yo are not supposed to measure too often but I do just b/c I am a numbers person who counts everything, but I do remeind myself that I can't really count it for a week. Anyway I am noticing that my weight was actually higher…

  • Maybe I need to work out at night because I get so sleepy afterwards, but then at night I go to sleep sooo late just sitting around the house. I know I am not getting enough sleep. Maybe if I work out right after I put the kids to bed and clean kitchen I will go to sleep earlier. I guess I'll give it a try tonight
  • thanks guys even on the day when I did go over I did watch my calories, fats, etc and it was just but a little bit but I still felt guilty even though every other day had been really good. I wanted to stop beating myself up which is why I asked.
  • ok thank you guys i have a little better understanding. I don't want to go overboard or anthing just have a little peace of mind. For example I usually come nowhere near my allotted calories once I include exercise but my hubby is in town for the weekend and cooked on the grill. I made adjustments such as turkey burgers no…
