Great!! I just sent you a message. The challenge group is completely online so you do everything at home, on your time and your schedule. No in-person meetings or group workouts. Furthermore, group interaction is all done on a private online group (I'm still deciding whether it'll be better to create a group on MFP or FB…

I love to support others and can always use extra encouragement. Add me too!!

Lol, this is cool. I'm interested to see what others post. Best: stuck to my workout schedule even though I didn't feel like it. Worst: ate whatever I wanted (I'll get back on track by Monday).

I'm originally from Manhattan and moved to Boston for school.

Feel free to add me too!

That is excellent!! Keep up the great work and you'll get to your goal in no time.

I agree with the greek yogurt, there's a lot of variety you can do with the yogurt adding nuts, local honey, fresh/frozen fruit, even eating it with your oats. I also switch up how I make my eggs from scrambled to making quick omelettes with various veggies or protein. You can also make a batch of gluten-free pancakes and…

This is motivating for me as I'm adding strength training to my routine soon. Small results are still results and you should be proud of your accomplishments in one month!! Keep it up!!

Thanks everyone! My nutrition made all the difference and the workouts helped. I think adding weights to my routine will really whip my abs into shape.

I'm 5'3" and my goal is 130. A little under 9 pounds to go!!

haha, I will! Thanks bunny :smile:

Thanks so much! Best wishes on your journey as well!!

Since you've tried upping your calories and you're tracking them. Maybe you should talk to your doctor and have your thyroid checked, if you haven't already.

Since I'm focusing on incorporating more protein into my diet these days, I usually eat eggs for breakfast (as an omelette, or scrambled with veggies and lean meat). Sometimes I'll make them sunny side up with avocado and all-natural salsa for a clean Mexican-style breakfast. I also enjoy eating oatmeal with blueberries,…

I love Goodreads, I find so many new books that I never would've thought to look into on this site based on what my friends read or want to read and authors' pages. Feel free to add me as well: http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/9612872-roxanne

You can meet your caloric needs with clean eating by including whole grains in your diet, as long as they are not bleached or processed. I usually eat oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa. I think what really got my eating into gear was living on my own and buying my own groceries. I was able to step away from the temptations from…

I am a law student, with a part-time internship and involved in organizations at my school, so I definitely relate to feeling unbalanced or wondering how or when I will find time to do the things that matter to me or that need to get taken care of at home. One of the main things that helped me was making time to workout at…

I usually bring a salad (usually spinach, mixed greens, or recently baby kale) with other veggies and any kind of grilled/baked/broiled protein (chicken, fish, turkey burger, or canned tuna). Or for a snack I'll bring baby carrots and hummus. If I'm on the go I'll bring my shake.

It may be weird but granola is my crack. EIther with yogurt or as part of apple or a berry crisp I cannot stop eating it. I lose all self control lol, so I have to stop eating it cold turkey if I wanna stay on track with my weight loss.

I'm 27 (will be 28 in Sept) and looking for more friends as well. Feel free to add me if I don't add you first :)

Not great, but I'm getting stronger each day.

Feel free to add me too. Like you said, the more support the better. I also won't be afraid to call you out if you're not logging in lol.

I can relate to Alexis: I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism when I was 15 and it has definitely affected my weight and metabolism. Definitely talk to your doctor and a specialist, also don't settle for the medicine they prescribe you initially. Make sure it's actually the right brand/dosage for you. Like Alexis, I too made…

This is my third week doing HHA (week 1 I did the six day slimdown). I haven't had any big results yet but I think slow & steady is the best way to go. I'm excited because this week I'll double up on some of the workouts because I don't always feel like doing Fat Burning Cardio 1 is enough. I can't wait to see where I am…

Hi, I'm also new to this group & just joined the BWLW online community. Please feel free to connect with me on here or on the BWLW site under the same username :)

I'm not "from" Boston, but I'm living here for school.

DVDs may be your best bet. I know they work for me. With my busy schedule and lack of motivation some days, my gym membership has been collecting dust and a waste of money, so it's less likely for me to make excuses if I can pop in a DVD, and work out at home on my own time. I could use more friends on this site as well. I…

Hi, I'm on Team Beachbody (under this same name) and this is my second week with Hip Hop Abs. I'd love to connect with people here and on BB to build a community of fellow HHA'ers.
