Wow! here are a lot of good ones I hadn't thought of here...just downloaded 5 of them and have 5 more in the queue! Something other's I have...I go more for fast paced songs...and ones that I tend to know the words to. I gauge my intensity by the whole...can you sing/can you talk/are you panting... All Summer Long....Kid…

The ladies have been gettin' me through my inclining treadmill walks lately. The versions/mixes I have are pretty fast paced so I can walk to the beat... Pink...the song title escapes me at the moment. It's a hard driving, heavy on the beat song. Annie Lennox...Little Bird DJ mix Lady Gaga...Bad Romance Oh, and I have no…

My 13 year old was diagnosed with Intestinal Non-Rotation in November. 2% of the population is born with it and 90% of those are diagnosed by age 1 and 75% of those are diagnosed by age 1-month! How she made it this long without any problems or diagnosis is unbelievable! She was afraid to eat for fear of another blockage.…

Same here! Lots of Veggies! We also make taco pizzas and use salsa as the sauce. I've also used the bagel thins...but make sure to put a larger mushroom or other veggie over the hole. They cook up nice and crisp!

I'm on a couple of times a day...unless I don't have access to a pc AND my phone is dead...which is rare.

That's what I always do!

My personal trainer told me..."muscle eats fat first". Don't worry, you're not going to bulk up unless your workout is specifically designed to do so. Check out Body Pump...they do have DVD's. It's an amazing workout! I do it only twice a week...you need to have a day off in between workouts...and mix in some cardio (I do…

My mother-in-law told my husband and me that we should go on the Biggest Loser..."at least you won't be the BIGGEST couple". Thanks...

I'm glad you said this. I went 6 weeks with a bmr of 1520 and I do 5 (60 min) classes a week and the treadmill with a speed of 3.0 and a varied incline up to a level 14 the other two days. I've been gaining and losing the same 3 pounds! I'm defined as "morbidly obese" so burning a min 450 x 5 per week and burning 250 x 2…

Bugnsamsmom My oldest daughter's nickname is Bug and my youngest daughter is Samantha... Bug n Sam's Mom...

This didn't happen to me...but my husband. He goes to the doctor for a regular check-up having lost 48 pounds since his last visit 6 months before. The Doc comes in and says, "48 pounds...very good." Then grabs his belly and jiggles it and then says, "but you've got a ways to go yet." He switched Doc's on the way out...

I wear light-weight cross trainers as do all of my instructors. I don't recall every seeing anyone in class with dance shoes...

Weekly Goal: 1500 Mon: 183 (30min on stationary bike) Tues: 178 (30min on level treadmill) Wed: 500 (50min of Body Attack) Thur: 240 (30min on inclining treadmil) Fri: calories burned (how they were burned) Sat: calories burned (how they were burned) Sun: calories burned (how they were burned) Total: 1101 Left to go: 399

I agree with you. Both my husband and I are currently "dieting"...trying to eat healthier and to work exercise into that for a healthier lifestyle. We are both on the same page when it comes to measuring and counting food and going to the gym...BUT...our minds are in different places. We're doing the same things but our…

we take thin sliced ham and put it into our baby cakes maker. mix up some scrambled eggs with veggies and pour it into the ham cups. Depending on how many veggies I put in the eggs I can get three cups from one scrambled egg. Looks like more than you actually have. Toast and Peanut Butter bagel/english muffin and cream…

I search online. Make sure you weigh/measure so you are getting enough to eat and accurate calorie count

Hi there, I'm in Racine County in SE Wisconsin. Lake Geneva is GREAT! Very beautiful for a nice day window shopping or enjoying the beach. You can do some mini walks but I'm not aware of anything that goes all the way around. Eagle, Wisconsin has Old World Wisconsin. It's a living museum of Wisconsin history. Wonderful for…

You set your weight-loss goal (how many pounds per week you want to lose). MFP suggests 1 pound per week. Enter all your personal information. Nothing else...MFP will give you, what I'll call, your base calories. At this point you just enter the foods you've eaten and any exercise you've done for the day. MFP will do the…

Yep...that's mine, too! It helps to tell myself...you did 30 mins yesterday...you can do it again! Then when I hit yesterday's mark I tell myself...you can do just 5 more!

giving it my best effort!

According to the machines at the gym...I burn more on the elliptical than the treadmill.

Translation please...lolol....

Thanks much. I've had it explained to me before...but not in such understandable terms! :flowerforyou:

All Recipes dot com is my 'go to' for recipes. I typed in slow cooker beef curry and this this one came up...Spicy Beef Curry Stew for the Slow Cooker. sounds good.…

This is one of the best explanations I've found...thanks. It makes total sense now!!!!

We always have them in the freezer in summer. Who knew they were so good? We also like sugar-free jello (60 cal) with some fat free topping. I buy the cups because I have trouble with portion control.
