Sounds like you are headed in the right direction and lots of great advice on here. I agree with the Couch to 5k, I did that years ago and it made me love running! Lately, I have been going to the gym and starting with a 2 mile warm up on the treadmill before weights. It it long and boring and SO SLOW! I seem to run at…

I hate this - I wish there was an option in settings to default to one or the other!

I loved insanity max 30!! I dont have pictures but I lost 25 lbs with that program.

Cutting 1000 calories from your diet, we don't really know what your diet was like before and what it is now since your diary is private. how many calories are you eating a day? What are you considering no results? Did you take before pictures to compare and measurements and not just focus on the scale? All that aside, if…

I use Herbalife and Shakeology -- every day for breakfast and some days also for lunch or dessert. It has been a lifesaver being so busy. Plus they are delicious and very filling!

Week 7 Day 2 of P90 here!

I'm doing P90 and bought on demand to move on to other programs once I complete this one. I just use MFP for nutrition. I do also work in shakeology into my calories though, because it is delicious and I love having a quick shake for breakfast. MFP says I should eat 1200 (5 foot nothing -- ) but I upped my calorie goal to…

I just purchased BOD too! I'm finishing up my P90 program first (starting week 7 today). I can't wait to try out all of the other programs on demand. I think I may start with Core De Force after P90!

Thanks for reminding me why I never post on these boards. People are so damn up tight- get over yourself. As I stated multiple times I was sharing what works for me.

I would suggest trying to pay more attention to your macros. I've been trying it this past week - it is hard to meet both macros and calories for sure. But I'm aiming to eat 40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fat. I think upping your protein and decreasing fat will help. Someone said monitoring your macros has no influence but…

I am making these: skinny mozzarella sticks http://deliciouslyyum.com/skinny-mozzarella-sticks/ baked buffalo cauliflower bites http://gimmedelicious.com/2016/01/31/baked-buffalo-cauliflower-wings/ and sweet potato curly fries with my spiralizer. I sprinkle with olive oil and paprika and will probably make a sriracha aioli…

I love cabbage soup! I wouldn't do the 7 day diet because I dont do well with restriction and (for me) it leads to 10lbs loss followed by 15-20lb gain. Not worth it. Plus I love eating real food! I wont bother lecturing you on the you need to eat foods and not restrict yourself - I'm sure plenty of other comments will…

I hear ya - same boat here. My husband and I both work full-time and have two children (12 and 5). Life is busy. Crazy busy! For years I let the stress of the business consume me and take over my life -- of course i went from in great shape and running all the time (profile picture) to being 50-60 lbs overweight and…

I'm 29, with 50-60 to lose. Down 10lbs in January. I have an open diary - feel free to add me.

I love this thread and great ideas. I went and got a nice new haircut and highlights last week to celebrate/reward myself for my first 10lb loss. I have a list of other great ideas for rewards and stealing some of these ideas - it is a great motivator. I think once I reach my goal, I'll change it to a reward for every 30…

Anyone feel free to add me. I have an open diary (to friends) and on a path to losing 50-60 lbs! Eating clean and healthy most of the time but no deprivation either, if I want chocolate I have it and work it into my calories!

this looks really yummy! I post a lot of my meals lately on my Instagram - esneer1 https://www.instagram.com/esneer1/

English muffin pizzas are the best!

I'm from Baltimore and here we call that a BALT!

They are great in scrambled eggs, on turkey sandwich, in salads, in a black bean mango salad and today I came across this amazing recipe I can't wait to try! http://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/2014/05/tomato-avocado-melt.html

I'm 5' and have 40lbs to lose if I want to look like my profile picture from 2012! Right now I'm holding most of my weight in my stomach, I think because the last year I really got into drinking IPAs. So for now Im cutting out booze completely and doing a completely lifestyle overhaul- running again, with Couch to 5k and…

Just do it - set your clothes out, roll out of bed and get out there. about a minute into a warm up walk or even if you head straight to running, you wont regret it. I used to be an evening runner, like 8:30 pm - recently (as of last week) I started doing it in the morning and I think I prefer it. It is tough getting up…

I love making cabbage soup in bulk and freezing for an easy go-to lunch. Since I don't want to do the cabbage soup crash diet I spice up my recipe. I use v8 for the broth and add corn, black beans, spicey ground sausage, garlic, peppers, celery, carrots, onions, cabbage. Basically loaded up veggies!

I just posted on another similar thread to check out simplegreensmoothies.com for some great recipes. A ton of varieties but basically 2 cups liquid (water, coconut water, coconut milk or other) 2 cups green (spinach, kale, etc) and 3 cups fruits (any and often mixed). Delicious !

Here's a picture of one of my pretty and delicious green smoothies!

Check out simplegreensmoothies.com they have a ton of great recipes for free. I just started a 30 day green smoothie challenge (1 a day for only one meal replacement for 30 days). So far on day 5 and loving it! A lot of good recipes, I'm obsessed!

Wow... truly inspiring. Not even just your body but your face. you look 10 years younger and very happy! You are awesome. I am on week two of insanity and loving it. I hope to see the same results as you on day 60!!

You are an inspiration!

I've lost 50 lbs and we eat pizza at least once a week. Yea Im sure there are healthier options... but I want the greasy fattening awesomeness -- I think the key is to not over induldge and to only do it on occassion!
