There is more to those pics... but I can't figure out how to get it to go on smaller.... sooo it will have to work I guess lol.

I got a sportline HRM with a chest strap. Does anyone know if the calorie consuming bit is based per hour or per workout/lap? I'm trying to figure out if I burned 151 or closer to the 400 it lists? this was for 20 mins on an elliptical heart rate about 140-150 the whole time.

Love it :)

I am envious, you are beautiful no matter what; but you look smokin in your after pics!!! Keep up the good work!

Bump Love the thread :)

I love the Sarah Lee Whole Wheat with Honey bread. It is 90 cals for 2 slices and only 9 carbs after you subtract the dietary fiber.

I agree with you that sugar is probably the best idea... but being diabetic I am really happy to see sugar free things out on the shelves. I don't make a habit of eating a ton of sugar free products but I am happy they are out there. The newest "best" thing seems to be the Truvia. I just bought some to replace my Splenda…

Dunno about peanut butter and cheese but I love peanut butter and mayo sandwiches... I might try your idea since I have to tell everyone no to knock mine till they try it.

I don't know if this will help but.... I really am not a huge fan of salads. I find that if I cut my vegetables up ahead of time and dip them in some kind of low cal dressing I prefer them that way. Veggies platters are much better than salad in my book. Also if you aren't terribly worried about your sodium intake if you…

I totally agree with the hidden calories in the oil that I use to cook with. I have switched to Olive Oil in an attempt to at least make them better calories. The other one I have a problem with (and am cutting back on in my food intake) is peanut butter. I used to have it every morning for breakfast until I realized 2…

I've been told taht 40% carbs 40% protein and 20% fat would be a good ratio. I am using 40% carbs 35% protein and 25% fat.

I had my first official NSV this last weekend :) I went to Victoria Secret in the mall and bought a 38 DD bra. I got it home and went to put it on the next day and realized it was a 36DD... I was ecstatic when I found out that it actually fit and still looked good!!! :D

Wish I had your hair! :)

So how is everyone doing on their shred??? I've gained 4 lbs and haven't seemed to lose any inches lol. However I feel soooo much more fit and my body feels tighter. Anyone else with these type of results?

Whats the shirt say?

I agree, yes you can do it!!! Push through you will be so much happier with yourself!

accident :(

This really sounds like a lot of fun, count me in!

I tried the Sugar free yellow cake mix with Diet Mtn. Dew. It tasted even better than a twinky in my opinion! Hubby who is a sweets junky really loved it :) Great recipe!!

Lol that is terrible and I did try :)

I don't usually keep track of how far I go in a month.... so for a newbie goal I will set one of 40 miles and see where I go from there! Perhaps next month I will up it.

I love knowing that I am doing good things for my body when I am working out. I'm not just exercising to be thin; I am exercising for a healthier me.

I started with a total of 100 lbs. I am down 35 lbs so roughly 65 more to go woot woot :) As my mom said... sometimes I need monkeys too! Feel free to add me.

Thanks for the advice! Can anyone suggest a good HRM?

Not silly at all!!! I can't wait for that day :D

I am on day 5/30 level 1 :) I'll add you... we can get through it together. So far I love it!!

You are looking very nice! :)
