You can't go wrong w/ Polar. Supposed to be the best, and I've been using my F6 for 2 years now and love it!

buda-bump!

Way to go tall lady! You are rockin' that body! Whoot Whoot! :drinker:

Very delish and all natural. Its like a heavenly treat for only 100 calories. Costco has them, so do natural food stores. I order mine online because i love the different flavors available there. Yeah, they are expensive, but so worth it in my book.

Thats hilarious about your son. You'll thank him later (if you aren't already) because you are rockin that flat tummy now. You should be very proud, great job!

Chair dips for triceps and squats, lunges, and wall sits for legs and butt are a good start without having weights. Besides the pushups and situps you are doing. Soup cans would work for doing some curls, and that will get your biceps going. Those are just a few. good luck!

Its not as hard as you think. Being conscious about what you put in your mouth and the calories in whatever it is, is 1/2 the battle. You can do it! Good luck, and would be happy to add you as a friend if you'd like. :flowerforyou:

You look awesome! So in seeing your dress....prompted me to write this message. Looks like one of the david's bridal Kelly green dresses...and if not then just ignore. I was supposed to be in a wedding last summer with Kelly green David's bridesmaid dresses. Wedding didn't happen so i'm stuck w/ this $100 buck green dress,…

You look fantastic! Keep it up! And I loovvveee that dress. :love:

Hi Julie. My daily calorie limit is lower then yours, but you are welcome to look at my fitness/food diary for ideas on what to do and eat. Looking at others' diaries is a great way to get ideas, as well as snooping around the forums. Cheers!

Good to know! :laugh:

I'll take a box of cadbury Eggs. Seriously. I wouldn't have the strength. I managed to only eat 5 this easter season (meaning from the moment they came out after V day to the time they went on sale after Easter). So super kudo's to you and your weight loss and the cruel world that is your job! :laugh: Way to go!

Ok this one is easy but not the quickest Turkey Stuffed Eggplant 1 lb ground turkey 2 Eggplants mushrooms onions any other veggie you want to add to the mix (we put in jalapeños, spinach would be good too) bread crumbs season however you want. I added Worcestershire sauce to the turkey, salt, pepper. preheat oven to 400.…

The human brain. That explains a lot...

Totally awesome. Way to go!

Hi, i'm in Colorado! :) I'm sure you have lots of friends, and you will here too! I'll add you.

I think everything is fine in moderation. My new boss just told me her neighbor was a diet soda-aholic, and always carried a lot of weight on her thighs, wearing a size 12 pant. She finally decided a year ago to cut out the diet soda for good, didn't do any other drastic diet or exercise changes, and has since gone down to…

i personally hate the word diet. it implies that there is an end to the healthy eating and exercise that's happening in your life right now. stressing out over what you'll eat is really what could cause you to fall of the wagon in the end. Life is full of surprises, so enjoy yourself and being with family, get an early…

Find something you love to do, not have to do...then your motivation will change. If its walking a dog and getting fresh air, or hiking, going for a bike ride, relaxation stretches with yoga, or shaking your thing in Zumba. If you find something you love, you will look at exercise in a whole new light.

You look awesome! You should be totally proud and lovin it. You have officially got me interested in this kind of workout. I need one of those gyms in Colorado! Someone franchise!! :laugh: I'll be your first customer!

We are on a tour, however only 2 of the nights the dinner is taken care of, the other nights we are on our own. Luckily breakfasts and most lunches I wont have to think about. We get the Peking Duck the first night there =) Very excited to try it. I'm not concerned about calories or anything while I am there, we will be…

Welcome HaiMay! Glad you are here! :drinker:

Also, if you have a TJ Maxx near you, they often have the pull up bars. i got mine for $15 from there, as well as some of the push up thingys. I bought 2 sets of weights, 5 and 8 lbs. Good luck! Its a great workout!!

just dont get the Awesome Blossom: Chili's Awesome Blossom 2,710 calories 203 g fat 194 g carbs 6,360 mg sodium Equivalent in fat content to 67 slices of bacon!!! :noway: They have a guiltless grill there. Chicken, Salmon, or a Black Bean Burger. The Black bean burger is the worst of the three, with 650 calories and 12 g…

The soft drink fact was shocking. UGH! i'll take a Dt. Coke, with a side of Fecal matter please.

Pilates! Amazing for lengthening your spine, tightening your torso, and improving posture. When I do Pilates, I become more conscious of my abs when I am doing other cardio exercises, and I think that helps overall.

I've never been a fan of applebee's, but now they introduced the new under 550 calories menu and I've heard good things! Makes me like them a little bit more, knowing they have a healthy option! http://www.applebees.com/Menu_Under550.aspx

What if you tried a non-solid? I know my husband wears some sometimes...its like a click up gel?

Oh my, if I quit every time I went over my calories, I wouldn't have made it past the first week! You are not perfect, life isn't perfect, and in fact, those imperfect moments can be most rewarding in boosting your metabolism and encouraging you to keep going! After a indulgent weekend, I have had some of my biggest weight…
