I've done close to 1200 and have lost 30lbs since the beginning of May. When I started to stall for a couple of weeks, I upped my carbs substantially with chicken breasts and egg whites, and i cut out as much sugar as possible, and the scale moved again.

Great job!! That's a hard one. I have the same struggle with Mexican food! Lots of small good choices = success!
-
Took yesterday off! W3D3 done today! Woo!
-
Yeah, well it's not like the jumping rockstars, which I was finally able to do. It's like a stand, which rolls into a reverse crunch, then you roll back up and back up into a standing position. And then you can jump, if you're able! It's definitely a pretty bad-*kitten* move, but I am totally not able to do it LOL PS, W3D2…

^^ Code for "I'm just not that into you, but I'm gonna say you deserve better to soften the fact that I'm checked out."

I eat whatever I want all day and lose. And by "whatever I want" I mean healthy foods that I tell myself are delicious and are exactly what I want until I get to like them. And then I like them and then I'm not lying to myself anymore!

Is there a way for you to just leave the house and go walk around the mall or Wal-Mart or just at a park, to distract yourself?
-
Whoa nelly! Week 3 is intense! My arms are still too short for the table thing, and that rockstar move... yeah, not today! But I tried :)

July 30 here!

I measure twice a month, on the 1st and 15th.

W2D4 out of the way! Hope y'all have a great day!
-
W2D3 done! I can already tell some of the moves are getting easier. If only my arms would get longer! lol

Taco bell beef crunchy tacos, fresco style or chicken tacos fresco style... around 150 calories each! You can get a 12-pack for $10.. oh yeah!

Since I never got rid of my small clothes (eternal optimist), when I get to my goal, I'm going to Key West to re-shoot my avatar pic to have a new memory where I was HAPPY to have on a swimsuit!

Today I mixed 2tbs chocolate PB2 into 6oz of Kroger Greek Yogurt, honey flavor, and it was heavenly!

Yes! I had to read this book 3 years in a row for summer reading while switching schools. AWFUL!! I say schools should toss out Lord of the Flies and let kids substitute Hunger Games.
-
W2D2 done! I'm pleasantly surprised at the exercises I can do - when I previewed W2, I saw a couple where I was like, "no way I can do that" and somehow I did! Those crow pushups are a killer, though!

I use this playlist when I'm doing elliptical... Run The World (Girls) - Beyoncé Drive By - Train Le Disko - Shiny Toy Guns Starships - Nicki Minaj Orange Crush - R.E.M.

I'm an Instructional/Graphic designer. I make aviation e-learning and instructor led training for people who operate private jets. Pretty interesting, and I get to work from home. Pros of working from home: I can always fit in my exercise and make a healthy meal. Cons of working from home: I live alone and until MFP, ate…

Mine's me at the Dolphin Research Center, where I celebrated my 30th birthday in Grassy Key doing a dolphin swim. When I get to my goal weight, I'm going to go again and get my photo taken as a before and after!

The day a woman has to pay for sex is a really sad day! LOL

I agree, I think their protein is too low. But I think even lower is their fiber goal! I try to get at least 25g fiber a day, but my goal was set at 14.
-
First day of Week 2 down! I have amusingly short arms, so the tabletop thing had to be modified. Used 2lb weights, but will try heavier ones tomorrow. I am so pleasantly surprised that this feels easier than the Week 1 workout! All that worrying yesterday for nothing :)
-
My goal is to start Ripped in 30 Week 2 today. I'm really lacking motivation today - I'm tired and my muscles are sore, but I always feel awesome after I do my exercise! Edited: And to stay under my sodium limit today!
-
My favorite Greek yogurt is the Kroger brand, Cranberry Fig flavor. It's made with Splenda so it only has 14 carbs, too! I mix 6oz of that with a cup of Fiber One cereal, and then I get all my fiber for the day, plus protein from the yogurt. It's the texture of fruity, tangy haystacks, yum!

Day 6 done today! So ready for Level 2!
-
Good for you for isolating the variable and seeing results! I've found it's not just about how many calories I eat, but the quality of them. I've been eating my exercise back but in grilled chicken breasts and fresh vegetables and haven't seen a problem. Probably if I ate my exercise back in the form of a Big Mac, it'd be…
-
I didn't believe upping my calories would work, but 1200 wasn't working either! 1200 did work for me since the beginning of May though, and not eating back my exercise. My weight kinda stalled at the end of July doing 30 Day Shred Level 3, and then into the first week of Ripped in 30. Maybe I just needed more fuel for…

97 days, here. I saw another post today and I think that person said they had 600 consecutive days logged! See the thread [TOPIC: How Wrong I Was! 600 Days of MFP. Lotsa pics]
