I go thru running shoes too quickly. I would never pay $120 on a pair of running shoes. $30 to $50 at the most. I try and get about 400 miles out of them. I just retired and pair of running shoes last week and I bought them in February. They were New Balance Trail running shoes ($35). They have 400 trail running miles on…

A good day is logging everything you eat, and keeping a healthy conscious mind with food intake and exercise. Just getting off the couch and going for a walk makes it a good day. It doesn't matter if you were over on your calories. You logged it. Make today a better day than yesterday. You are allowed to eat off of your…

Nice NSV Skinny Wife!! Rock it girl!!

Yes! Wear it!!

I don't know if mfp works. I have lost 130lbs so far. 110lbs was with fat secret and a friend introduced me to this site a few months later, and I have been hooked ever since. If you are dedicated to losing the fat, and you push yourself daily then it works. You are what makes this website work. The wonderful people on…

Just saw this and want to watch the video. I love Jillian Michaels. I do not think this video will change my opinion of her.

1/4 cup steel cut oats, 2 tablespoons flax seed, (nasty) 14oz chocolate muscle milk, 2 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter, 1 cup frozen mixed fruit. Not a bad smoothie except for the muscle milk. I will use the smart balance milk tomorrow.

Fresh brewed tea. I have kicked the soda habit for about two months now.

You look amazing, and awesome NSV!!! You are ready. Keep Punching! All Is Possible!!

I am here to help anyone on thier journey as well.

Amazing! Job well done! Scream it at the top of your lungs. Be proud of what you did. You rock!!

I say you rock that bikini!! Have fun on your trip!! :wink:

I have a problem with TDEE. The calculation does not seem right to me. I am 41 year old male, 227lbs, I have a desk job, however I workout 6 days a week 2 sometimes 3 hours a day. I worked out 11 hours last week and that is probably 5 hours lower than what I usually do. I also use a hrm to calculate my calories burned not…

Salt is in all foods these days. Proccessed foods are the worst. It is essential. I agree with 2000mg. Also, I do not think sea salt is any better or worse for our bodies. The proccessing is different, but I think it is a marketing to say it is a healthier alternative.

Definitely! You look amazing!! :bigsmile:

Amazing my man! I will definitely try out that ice cream. Outstanding job! I am fighting the last 25-30 lbs. I am trying to get down to 190 myself. You are an inspiration!

Why ruin a perfectly good piece of steak with ketchup? Good fresh steak doesn't need anything on it.

I miss smoking too! Smoking can curb your appetite. Kick it all together.

I am close to my goal this time, but I know how easy it is to go back to my old habits. I hope to not yoyo anymore. If you need help I can help, and I can always use the help myself.

I was the same way with diet coke. I have one or two a week now. I used to have a 12pack or so a day and possibly even more. I drink water and unsweetened black tea these days.

I completed c25k back in October I think. I think I ran 4-5 days a week. I know run 5-6 days a week, and I am able to do 8 mile runs twice a week. I completed a Super Spartan (8.3 mile run) 2 weeks ago. I say if you are not hurting then go for it. It will not hurt to run a little more. Our bodies were designed to run. I…

Great post. Thank you!!

I realized it when it took me 5 - 10 mins to get out of bed in the morning. If I tried to just get up any quicker my knees and back hurt so bad that I could barely walk. My other clue was when I realized I was out growing my 3XL clothes and I was fitting into 56 pants.

No plan needed. It is already there. It is all about counting calories and exercise.

I just turned 41, and I have 35lbs to go. I have been using mfp for almost a year. I have lost 131lbs. I log daily. I will help anyone that needs advice, or my take on the 131lbs that I have lost. I also need encouragement from mfp friends. I plan to continue to use this site after I reach my goal. Anyone feel free to add…

Good morning, and great advice. Sometimes it is not how much you eat it is the kinds of food you eat. Calories are not all the same. Veggies and fruit metabolize differently in your body. The same thing with sugar. I stay away from butter and use I can't believe it is not butter and other substitutes. I weigh everything. I…

I like logging my food before I eat that way I can add or remove and not worry about eating over. I think the app on my smart phone makes it easiest to log my foods. I have found logging my food and living this new lifestyle it is essential to lose weight. If I do not log I will definitely eat too much. I do not make…

Amazing loss! You look great! Keep it up!! :happy:

I agree. I am on here constantly. On here my friends and I have a common goal. Facebook noby really cares. To much drama for me on facebook.

I run 8 miles twice a week. I haven't tried anymore. I never tracked the distance when I was in the Army. The longest was probably a 1/2 marathon.
