I do Zumba mostly. And now I have a friend that I am walking with in the evenings. Zumba makes me want to burn calories though. It doesn't feel like work. :)

I always add them to my smoothies and oatmeal. I used to add them to my water but haven't done that in a while.

That's awesome!!! Thanks for sharing!!! I hope you have a great, positive filled day as well!! :happy:

I do C25K Mon, Wed, and Fri mornings. Bike (at the gym) Tues and Thurs for 45 min. And starting to try and workout either on Sat or Sun...jogging one of those days. And just this week started taking Zumba Monday nights and Wed nights in addition to what I was already doing!! Finally finding my love for working out again!!…

I honestly don't see why anyone should bash anyone else for what they eat. What works for one may not work for someone else. I am on a 1200 cal plan also. Sometimes I exceed that and sometimes I don't eat that many. But I am doing what works for ME!! I workout 5-6 days a week and seeing results. So if someone doesn't like…

I am ordering it this week and can't wait to get started!!! I love that it incorporates martial arts. :smile:

Thanks for posting this. Very helpful!!!

It is supposed to be a beautiful weekend here so I am hoping that we get into something outdoors. If not I will be going to the gym and doing some much needed yard work! Either way it will be a great weekend!! :happy:

You all look A-MAZING!!! Great job everybody!!!

I have been wondering about that app too!

Champion Women's Powerback Underwire....this is the one I mentioned in the previous reply that I purchased from Amazon. Hope this helps! :)

I bought one from Amazon last week that is wonderful. I am "gifted" in the chest area and this bra holds me in place. I am able to run with this bra on. It is a Champion brand and was only $25. It is a little difficult at first to get in and out of but very comfortable and supportive. And another plus....you don't have the…

haha...they had ac they were trying to be conservative on the usage. So when you walked in it was stuffy. I am all for sweating but I want to have worked for the sweat!

Anyone can feel free to add me too. I am new to running. Tried a little last year but just started C25K last week. I am on week 2 day 2 (completed this morning). Not really caring if I run any races just want to be able to run for the exercise. Happy running all!! :)

I was a member a couple of years ago at the one in my area. It changed owners within a couple of months of opening and was very hot in the summer. The equipment was very limited (4 ellipticals and 5 treads). That being said I did enjoy my time there. The main reason I quit is because all the other gyms in my area offer no…

I'd love to join in! i had already done the challenge for today along with some other exercises before I saw this! :)

I felt the same way when I first started. I was very nervous and I had to go alone. I just put my music on and was in my own little world. No one should be judging you...we all go for the same reason!!! So get in there and do what you have to do. You won't regret it!!!! And congrats on starting this!!!! :smile:

I use the one at the gym. My husband and I go early in the morning before work. I usually alternate between elliptical and bike but prefer elliptical. :smile:

Thanks for posting this!!! I am trying to get into lifting. I will look into getting the book!!

Wow....you look great!!! And very inspiring!!

Awesome job!!!!

All I have to say is congrats on your loss!!! I know people who have taken the weight off slowly with diet and exercise and STILL gained their weight back. So congrats to you!!!! Well done!!!!

I usually dread the first of the year with all the resolution people joining and crowding the gym. But I have started going at 5:30 in the morning cause my gym was starting to get too crowded now. A lot less people that early in the morning. I love it!!!! Can actually get a good workout now! :smile:

Wow....You look amazing!!! Congratulations!!!!

I would love to be part of this challenge. I have lost 60 pounds so far (gained 12 back :sad: ) And ready to get the rest of this weight off of me! I already use an elliptical but I know that I am not pushing myself as hard as I did in the beginning of this journey and hopefully this challenge will motivate me. Barb

I was just like you when I started trying to lose weight. I was very self conscious of going to the gym. But I finally did it on my own and have not regretted. It's sad that we have to feel like we are being judged but I got beyond that by turning up my music and feeling like I was in my own world. Just remember everyone…

That is so awesome that you have lost 152 lbs!!! Congrats!!!!

Well, my husband is happy with me losing weight and very supportive. He has mentioned before when I talk about strength training that he hopes that I don't start looking all "muscular". While I am happy that he supports me, I really don't care what he thinks about it because I am doing this for me and me only. So if I do…

I need/want a new (more modern) food scale. The one that I have my mom gave to me and it is pretty old and worn out. But it still doing its job. :wink:
