Just ordered it and can't wait! I'm glad to see some positive reviews. I did P90x but got bored and quit 2 months in. I'm hoping the multiple workouts and them being only 30 minutes will help. Any advice on what I should have on hand for the workouts?

I used the weight I am now, not my weight when I started trying to lose a year and a half ago. I weigh in on Friday mornings at the gym so I'll post after that what my weekly CW is. Should a new thread be started each week with progress??

Circuit training with free weights for 30 minutes after work and then 30 minutes on the treadmill. Woohoo! I'm happiest at the gym these days!

This is great. I am so up for this. I've lost 48 pounds so far and have 32 more to go before I reach my goal. I can't slack now! Could really use some help to keep me motivated. I have a habit of not finishing things that I start. I want to finish this! SW: 192 - 06/15/2012 CW: 192 GW: 160

That is so great! You look awesome!

I'm in! I've lost 45 lbs and can't wait to get the rest off! Lets go!

I'm 5' 8" and currently 195, down from 240. My goal is 170 but I think once I reach it, I will still need to either lose more or work on toning my problem areas. My body type is not that of a skinny tall chick. I'm more built like a field worker with curves. LOL I looked great at 170 when I was there before. I think if I…

Wow!! That is FANTASTIC! Brag away! You deserve to. You are inspiring.

That is no small accomplishment! Good Job! I actually need to make what you just achieved my personal goal! Thank you for reminding me!!

BTW - I can't handle artificial sugar in any form...so its the real stuff or nothing at all.

This is my plan when I drink. Raspberry flavored seltzer is great! If you're not into sugary drinks like I am, you'll love it! At a bar I would order a vodka and soda water with lemon and lime.

Awesome! You look great!

156 Sticks of butter!! Wow! Thats crazy! But good!

I totally agree! And now thanks to MFP I know how many calories are in that chardonnay!

Its the same scenario for me when I'm carded for buying wine...the 25 yr old kid behind the counter responds to my enthusiasm with "We card everyone ...ma'am."

41 in two weeks! I WISH people thought I was younger! If I get carded, I'm so damn excited!

I weigh on Fridays so this is my final post for March. I didn't make it but feel pretty good anyway. I will definitely hit it hard in April. See you on April's thread! Starting Weight – 217 lbs.

Thanks for the information. I'm tagging myself on this post so I can refer back to it.

I'm in! I will not even let a trip to Vegas in April stop me!

Well, this week wasn't so good. But at least I still had a loss. I keep calculating according to my last weeks weight. Should each week's percentage lost be total percentage since the beginning? So far 4.4 pounds and 2% One more week to lose 2%. Yikes! Guess I'll skip the red wine tonight. I'm so doing this next month!…

I've wanted a recipe for these for a LONG time! Thank you!

Fructose Corn Syrup in beer? That is sacrilege! I will definitely be enjoying a couple ales but will beat myself up about it the next day. No Guinness - Blech! Maybe a Harp Lager or a MacTarnahans. I'm working on creating a daily calorie deficit this week but I'm making up for last weekend!

I want to get a tattoo when I reach my goal too! Good luck to you! This site has really helped me to keep on track. If you simply start tracking the food you eat each day religiously, it will make a difference. When I plan to eat something, I think about the fact that I'll have to add it to my list. It affects my choices.…

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I'm going to try a shake right afterwards and take that short nap when I can. Plus, I do hope things will get better as I get more in shape. Its just so hard to accept that my body is not going to act like it did 10 years ago. Now I have to work harder and wait longer to recover but its…
