I do 30 minutes and it is usually around 291 thru 305 depending on how fast I go. That is what my machine tells me anyway....:happy:

What an accomplishment! You look beautiful! Congrats. It is so cool to see hard work pay off! GREAT JOB. :flowerforyou: :drinker: :drinker:

Just saying no isn't always that easy. I get that. So if you want a bit; taste half and work out double. :flowerforyou:

Feel free to add me as a friend. Sounds like you have the same exact strugglers as I do. I do log my sinfulness. It is reality I must not ignore. :flowerforyou: :drinker:

I would be more than happy to add you! I get how hard it is. Lost 30 years back and said I would never gain it back cause it was so hard!!! Found myself back in the same boat. I am paddling.... ; ):flowerforyou:

I completely understand. It is all too familar to me. I try to exercise more, eat just a little less and drink lots. Only drink tons on Friday and maybe some on Saturday. This is such a slow process for me due to the fact of my weekend. But at least I am not gaining and may lose a half to a pound a week. Very slow but I am…

Bump Wow some great ideas. Love black beans. Usually do Taco or dip with at least the following ingredients: Salsa Black beans onion low fat cheedar cheese turkey or beef Tortilla chips or taco shell

With or without sugar? I gave up my homemade ice tea with sugar. Crystal light is my replacement. 0 calories. I can drink a quart no problem. Try it, you might like it, they even have appletini (nice with liquor), lemonade, all types of flavors.

Feel free to add me. I am on daily. :flowerforyou:

Dancing in the Moonlight by King Harvest. Years ago my husband and I used to go out and dance every weekend. We need to do that again to get back into shape. I need a supernatural delight. LOL It is also my ringtone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvtsGa96LaI

CONGRATULATION! You look great. Keep up the great work. :happy:

Way too funny!!!! :laugh:

Thanks for the good info. Interestingly enough I already lack Vitamin B and have even received B-12 shots and now take B Complex every day. Had a very stressful week and was unable to exercise and was thinking I was burning calories stressing. My theory was wrong. Hmmm... :ohwell:

Welcome, Don't let fear stop or discourage you. Just do one day at a time. I too am at least 50 lbs heavier than when I first got married. I can relate about the detaching. You can do this, day by day. Best of luck and feel free to add me for support and encouragement.

Happy Birthday! And congratulations. You look great. I can't wait to say I am not longer overweight. I just got out of the obsese range. You are inspiring me!!:happy:

Hi Carey. I can appreciate how you feel. You can get your weight under control. It is a mindset. Take one day at a time and don't be hard on yourself. Have a cheat night. I look forward to my cheat night! You CAN do this!

Hi. My name is Cheryl. I just turned 50 and want to shed some lbs. I will be thrilled if I can lose 30 and 50 would be wonderful. I did weight watchers years ago but now I have gained it all back and then some. Now it is time for me to get back into taking care of myself. I just lost 10 lbs prior to joining MFP and came to…

Thanks for the tips.

Feel free to add me. I lost 8 lbs prior to doing myfitnesspal. I just lost 3 in 3 weeks. It is tough but I am managing. :happy:

That is funny about the new born elephant. My legs always shake when I get off. I just worked myself up to 60 minutes. Its tough.
