I agree with the VariDesk. I have a standup desk and when sitting I use a exercise ball which makes you work leg and ab muscles to stay upright. Burning an extra 650 - 750 calories a day just using these two things. Stand approximately 4-4.5 hours a day.

There is a fit cycle in the book. I think that is what it is called. You do 2 day carb 1 low carb 2day carb and then 1low carb again.

If you are talking about classes at the gym that is the way to go for me. You have a tendency to work hard and longer if you are with a group of people. At least I know i do.

Welcome

You can find alot of the program online if you want to get started sooner.

I would like to participate in August for 50 miles. 08/02/14 - 4 miles complete.

Can I please be added to the July challenge for 50 miles. thank you

My biggest challenge is the cheat day did not…

The data base on MFP shows green peppers 1 cup for 29 calories. Woo I was worried for a minute, I use alot of peppers also for breakfast with egg whites for a quick omlete. I count everything that goes in my mouth. That is the only was to truely know the amount of calories consumed. Weight Watchers may say the are 0 points…
