Hi everyone, I am glad to see a lot of familiar faces from our last team. For those of you I don't know yet my name is Bridget I am 24 years old and from MA. I have been on MFP for about a year now and have lost about 45 pounds since using this site and starting my lifestyle change. Since being on MFP I have completed in…

Hi Everyone, My name is Bridget. I signed up for the other Biggest Loser Challenge, so hopefully we will be able to keep this one going this time around (I was on the purple team). Current Weight: 174 How many lbs would you like to lose?: 30 or so What are your goals along this journey?: Learn to run outside (10-11 min…

I agree... I don't think it tastes THAT BAD, but its just bland - I've tried garlic, salt and pepper but that's still not enough. Does anyone have a good suggestions that doesn't involve adding heavy creamy sauces???

I agree - keep doing what your doing. If after a week you are already seeing results you are doing something right. It is impossible to spot reduce (meaning just get rid of your stomach). Just keep working out and eating right and you will see the changes you are looking for. Also I noticed when I first started out I was…

Hopefully there are still some open spots left in this challenge... ****What is "HR / FR" and "EM pts".....(take a guess.... - it doesn't actually say in the challenge) - give it a shot...hoping for a few entertaining guesses but try and think what it might be...??? HR = Half Reps FR = Full Reps EM pts = Extra Movement…

I just completed day 2 of level 2 today. It was easier then day 1 but still tough! Keep up the amazing work everyone!!!

Everyone who posted has been added to the official roster. As of right now this group is set private. If you wish to participate please send me a private message and I will put you on an alternates list. Thanks!!!

Yes, anyone can join!!! Teams will be chosen at random in order to try to teams as fair as possible. I will begin putting a roster together in the next few days.

Hey! Everyone's goals sound great and very obtainable which is awesome. With Christmas being so close and me trying to get back into my old routine again I would like to try to lose 10 pounds by Christmas! My goals include: - Logging EVERYTHING -Drinking at least 100 oz of water a day -Working out at least 6 days a week…

Current Weight: 195.8 Goal Weight: 145 11/26: 195.8 12/3: 12/10: 12/17: 12/24: Goal NSV: Get rid of my love handles, learn to run, learn to LOVE running, Be able to fit into cute clothes. I love trying new foods so challenges #2 & #4 will be no problem for me. This will also help in terms of the holidays too. I want to try…

To the OP... I have worked in a tanning salon for six years and have met a variety of different men and women who tan for a number of different reasons. Using a tanning bed to get a slight base tan is actually a good idea for someone like yourself with very fair skin. While tanning IN GENERAL (regardless of in a salon or…

Way to go! Those are awesome accomplishments. Keep up the good work!!! =)

Yes there will be a group page along with additional information, spreadsheets, etc. We are at the end of the first round of this challenge so by next week the group will be all set for the second round.

week 1 results... SW: 194.0 lbs CW: 193.8 lbs only a 2 ounce loss this week. But thats alright, I barely exercised this week because last week I worked out only four days out of the week and lost two pounds. So I am trying to see what works and doesn't work for my body.... GW (by labor day): 179.0 lbs

I have yet to try any of the bodyrock videos - I got wicked confused when I looked at the site myself, and thought I would go back to it when I complete Insanity. As far as the intimidation factor, don't let that prevent you from trying your best at whatever type of workout you want to do. What I like about Insanity (and…

CW: 194.0 GW:174.0 Hoping for the best!!! =)

Hey Everyone!!!! My goal is to lose about 15 to 20 pounds by labor day. I hope that this group will help me to do so!!!! Good Luck to you all!!!

I am currently in the recovery week between the first and second month. My results are similar in that I have seen a a difference in measurements as well as strength and ability. For me those are victories as well. The scale is just a number and does not always reflect the transformations in your body. Insanity is a great…

Wet just the strap before every use. When you get your HRM the strap will have two sensor strips on it, that is the part you want to wet. Then, after wetting the sensors and putting the strap on you can attach the little battery piece, put on your watch and begin your workout!!!!

If you have a HRM you could always wear it while working to see exactly how many calories you are burning while you are there. Then you can create a specific exercise for it if you would like and log the calories you burn into your diary that way.

I am almost done with Month 1 of Insanity... I have yet to see a major difference on the scale, but have seen a decent difference in my body ( not as much as I hoped to see, but there is no quick fix to getting fit!!!) I have also see a DRAMATIC difference in my energy (both working out and just in general) as well as my…

Feel free to add me if you would like. :) I am just starting out on my journey & have a long way to go. I have found motivation in places that I didn't even know about until recently! MFP has a great group of people who are extremely supportive and can help motivate and inspire but on top of others motivation I found that…

Awesome idea!!! Do one more for me =)

Personally, I think those look like an AMAZING birthday treat. As adults we know better and we understand the types of foods we should and should not eat, but I don't think there is one person that can say they haven't had sweets when they were a child. I agree children should be eating healthy and learning about nutrition…

Thanks Tiffany!!!

Drinking was a big thing for me (this time and every other time I have tried to lose weight). So far I have not had a drink since I started working out again - that has only been three weeks, but still, its progress! Other than that the one thing that has really changed for me is the way I look at my family. That sounds…

Don't let their pace get you down!!! Take breaks when you need to and soon enough youll be getting faster and stronger. I have been doing insanity for three weeks now, and more often then not I find myself taking a break, or modifying the workouts. I went from walking/jogging on a treadmill about 3 days a week, ended up…
