Thanks! I really need to have self control this weekend to feel like am really making the lifestyle change instead of just a diet. I feel like it could be a really great turning point for me

I'm at 8 cups of water right now! 4 more to go! I wasn't able to do the 45 min activity challenge today because I am really sick and I'm spending every spare moment sleeping to try to get better! My reason for joining was to form a support system. I really want to step up my weight loss and get serious about it. I'm…

I usually put the reps and weights and everything in under Strength Training and keep track of the time. Then, I make a "Strength Training" log under cardio for how much time I spent.

Haha no 5 pound dumbells! I did the strength machines.. I'm not very familiar with their names but I believe a leg press (3 Rep of 15- 110 lb), leg extension (3 Rep of 15- 75 lb), Arm pull down thing (2 Rep of 12- 55 lb), and leg abduction and aduction (each 4 rep of 12- 75 lb). I know its not a lot but I'm trying! I am…

I wish! I'm a poor college student without a job.. definitely not in the cards right now haha

Ugh.. Gained this week! My weigh in this morning was 184.0 lb.

Its so great! I just finished week 2 today! I would absolutely recommend it

This sounds great!! I'd love to be part of it

Looks amazing!! You can totally pull it off!

You look awesome!! Good for you! So inspiring!

I rewarded myself with a Cosmo subscription with the catch being I can only read it when I'm at the gym!

Great Job!! It had to have been super hard but so worth it! You've definitely motivated me to keep up my hard work today :)

So disappointing! I feel like I'm losing it all from my boobs & belly! Belly Great! Boobs..not so much! haha Thanks for the info!

Great!! I'm leaving for Disney on February 26th and I hope to lose 10 pounds by then! I'm pretty new here too but my biggest advise is to stay absolutely true and record everything on MFP. Usually, when I know what's for dinner I'll put everything in before hand so that I can see how many calories I am consuming and that…

Me too!! Its so bizarre! I spent 2 weekends ago on a drinking trip with a little bit of skiing and last weekend drinking both weekend nights and I've lost 7 pounds (more than an average 2 weeks when I've been trying to lose weight)! I've been burning 1000 calories 3 days a week but I feel like that's not even close to the…

That always happens to me! Right at 9pm it kicks in and I just want to eat whether I feel hungry or not-- Its terrible! I'll try some of these healthy foods you all suggested

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate your responses-- I should have had better self control earlier and known the fries weren't worth it but I will just have to do better tomorrow. I'm always very self conscious when talking about my weight loss but I did mention that I lost a couple pounds to one of the french fry friends…

I think it is so great! I played field hockey in high school and every summer our coach would send us an adapted version of this program for our summer training. It does a great job of building you up slowly and I really like that I can put the workouts on a calendar and check them off as I go. I love the feeling of…

You can do it!! Just think about how great you will feel and how proud you will be of yourself!!

No Sleep Tonight- Faders We Run This- Missy Elliot Beatles are GREAT! Also, I dont know if you have heard of Girl Talk but its this guy who mashes up all popular upbeat songs into this great pump up mix! Actually his whole album is one continuous song which lasts a little over an hour and I listen to it pretty much every…

They used to but they just revamped the website and now I can't find it. I've just been trying to go along with what MFP says for calories.. I usually just pick the one from the list that has the most calories so that I'm logging extra calories instead of logging less calories than I'm actually eating. I try to keep that…
