LOL, I could only eat power bars with my youngest (morning sickness) His favorite food as a toddler were yep, you guessed it Power bars. I'm talking the original grow in your mouth like liver power bars :)

I've upped my calories to 1401 and just upped again today to 1450. This is very difficult for me but I totally get the concept about my metabolism in slooooow mooootion! I want to lose it like sha4sure "yesterday". I do not think it is unrealistic to lose my weight by August 20-25 lbs but I just need some help wrapping my…

Hey Lil! I thought this was over, but I have to say it sure has helped me stay on track! Thanks for starting this group, I have been hiking 3 miles a day m-f and lifting 2-3 days a week. I intend to increase to 7 days per week to meet the calories in calories burn more closely. I'm only at 1362 for my burn so far today…

OMG, just read your post we could be twins! weight wise :) I just posted the exact same thing well almost, check my timeline and you can jump to the post. DO NOT LOWER your calories! I was at 1200 for a year and did not lose. I have been active and currently workout 6-7 days cardio in addition to 2-3 days upper body…

I have a similar issue if anyone can chime in and help I will LOVE you so much! I am 5'7" at 163lbs. Daughter is getting married in August would like to be 135 and just started planning a first trip ever to Hawaii in May MFP had me at 1300 calories but one of my pals mentioned MBR and Fat2Fitradio. After listening to…

Day 17: Hike Miles: 3.16 Calories 390 time: 51 min shaved off 6 min and added .15 miles for a new pace record :)

Day 15 01/21/13 Beach walk not as fast if I were alone but still great exercise!

did an hour of fast paced walking in back yard. logged over 3 miles! double days are tuff,

Day 11 01/17/13 OK so I made up for day 10 Today I completed: 40 min of weight training (details in exercise log) Treadmill: 2.03 miles 229 calories 35.38 minutes! So it may progress may look choppy but I'm still day for day as I committed. As of today I'm back on sync of my promised 6 days a week! I thought I would get…

Day 10 01/16/13 looks like I fell down again really need to stay on top of that workout first thing in the morning before DH has a chance to sabatoge! going to need another make-up day and fitbit says I only got in 4951 steps? what the heck happened?

Day 9 01/15/13 started at the dentist then went for a long walk on the beach! 8.82 miles today, ended up making up for the skipped day!

Day 8 01/14/13 Rough day for me didn't get my work out done early and by nights end was just to long a day. RICA Argue with Sears and stand around waiting for repair man. Lesson: Don't procrastinate, just do it. Now I have to double up to catch up.

Day 7 I completed my weight training it takes roughly 40 min itemized under exercise log on MFP and my binder:)

I'm getting caught up on my logs here online. On the 6th day I rested.

Merry Meet Sweaty people! I just finished weight lifting, was going to not do legs as we will be on the bike trail today too. But I realized part of the legs includes the glutes. so I went back out to the garage and completed the extra 2 exercises. I feel so much better now. 45 min of weight training completed :) Have a…

Good for you getting back up on that bike. First time I rode I had to use my husbands, I let my daughter use mine. That was not a good idea it was too big and I ended up with surgery and two pins. But I would rather ride than walk I take Sheba and she rides in the basket. hmmmm Maybey tomorrow... Nawwww, my leggs need a…

I'm tired, going to take some aleeve. I know I was going 4-5 miles on the beach cause I took my music and I know how fast the beat is on the treadmill. Sheba kept up for the most part but when she looked tired on the bike trail I carried her so add 4 lbs to part of the 130 minutes :) I actually logged less I had to slow…

was that the 12 who each lost 100+? I thought of one of the girls tag lines next to her photo while on my morning treadmill run: I run for cookies :) I thought I may just change mine to say I run for potatoe chips and whip cream :D after I'm at goal of course

Miles 2.00 Calories 253 time 30.30 The warm up on the treadmill was killer then I kinda zoned into the music and pushed myself to finish fast :) I'm even tempted to do weights this afternoon any thoughts on giving it a day of rest? also with alternating days of 2 miles and weights do I really need my leg exercises?

I agree about the group it does help me get online here, I cannot access via my droid :( and the size does'nt really matter. Sometimes it's how its used :)

ok so I'm totally bummed, I know the weight training is going to help me lose weight but why does'nt it count towards calories?

well it took me forever however I finished my workout binder along with the exercise log for the bowflex. I may post pictures later if I figure it out :) I completed 13 exercises in approximately one hour now I will log in MFP you can see the individual exercises on my log :)

Yesterday I worked out on the bowflex and got in some weight training. couldnt believe I got in 45 min of training. however I like to rest one min in between sets so that makes it a little longer and it was my first time on the bowflex in 6 months :) This morning I'm printing out my workout from the manual in half pages. I…

my first goal is 14lbs I'm shooting for 2 lbs per week. I'm ready to check in with my exercise for the day do we have a thread for check in yet?

Hey Anna, yes, heart rate would def go up if I mowed the lawn. 300 calories thats great!

Ok, I'm in! do you take any day's off? I'm determined to lose weight and shape up however I also know if I over commit I set myself up for failure.I did 44 minutes yesterday and I'm headed out for 30 in about 10 minutes. I will commit to the group 6 days, then if I screw up I can add 10 min a day to catch up without…

Hi Sarah, I'm the mother of the bride and I need to lose too. I'm 5'7" and weigh 158lbs, my first goal is 145 I would love to be down to 130-135 but at my age I'm not sure it will look good. What is your target weight? I dont think I saw it in your post.

Please count me in, 12 weeks is around the date of my first goal :)
