You look so great!! Your posture is amazing in the "after" pics, you can just see how much happier and confident you are. Way to go!!!

Ditto on the Zumba! I'm an addict, its so much fun. If you dont have the classes in your area (which are easy to find by entering in your zip on the zumba.com website) you can also get the DVD's. But I would highly recommend doing them in person, its so much fun!

You look so YOUNG!!!!! compared to your before pictures. Its absolutally amazing. I think health is the fountain of youth, you are living proof. GREAT JOB!!!

Well, I know how you feel. Somedays it doesn't feel worth it. But then I think back to January of 2008, when I was having knee surgery and was the heaviest I've ever been, and how miserable I was, and how I vowed to never take my healthy limbs and my body for granted again. I thought to myself how stupid I was for not…

Haaa!! I dont even know what pancetta is, and it sound like I am like you...all about the sides!! :blushing: ...I'll probably get the Filet anyhow, I bet its pretty good at Strings. mmmmmm. so fun!
-
FUN! So I would choose from your menu: Mango and Jicama Salad - LOVE jicama Pequenas Flautas - not a fan of the scallops Pechugas en Salsa de Poblano Gratinadas Tres Leches Cake - sounds yummy! Going to Strings tomorrow night for the same thing =) Love 5280 Restaurant week! Here's the Strings menu....can't wait for the…

shopping at Sephora :devil: What are 10 ways to use a pencil, excluding writing? (actual interview question I've been using)
-
Yep, I actually gained the first week. I think it just took my body to adjust to the extra exercise and being outside its comfort zone. The next week I lost 2 lbs. Good luck!

You are amazing!!! Great job girl, keep up the great work! :bigsmile:

ON 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein. I went to a body building forum and asked what the best tasting low calorie protein powder was, and thats what they recommended. It is YUUMMMY. I mix w/ just water and ice and it tastes great! The only flavor to stay away from is Vanilla Ice Cream (they told me). I love the carmel toffee…

Haven't ever heard of it but now I am curious!:bigsmile:

I dont have experience w/ WW except that i've had a few friends and family members do it, and they did well, until they met their goals or they couldn't get down to their goal, in which they gave up. Why dont you try tracking calories and exercise on MFP (forgetting the Points guide), and see if that helps? It may be time…

Love the Eating for Life recipes!!!

Bump!!

Is it ok to use canned beans? I dont know about soaking them for hours before using them!

I've burned 700-800 in one of the 60 minute routines, and then if you are doing abs on top, then it could very well been accurate! Good for you if so!!!

Welcome! You have come to a great place for support and success. My advice...eat healthy, track your calories, if you crave something have it in moderation and exercise to earn those extra calories. Find exercises you love. Have fun! losing weight is a great thing, and its fun to do! Those are my tips. I'm sure you'll…

You want to be as close to 0 remaining calories at the end of your day as possible.
-
Ditto. But I have never been a huge sweet tooth type of person either. I can have a tub of ice cream in the fridge and it will last 2 months. I am sure it just really depends on the person and the "addiction". Good luck!
-
I dont think there is anything wrong with your thinking. I do the same thing. The deficit that is causing you to lose weight is from the decreased amount of net calories consumed overall, based on what you would normally consume just to maintain. So whats the point of exercising then? Well it does wonders for our bodies…
-
I know with me, it took a good month to get the weight loss going. Your body could be fighting change right now. Its comfortable with where you are at, and it doesn't want you to lose weight! So it will fight you. Just keep at it, and it will eventually give in and the weight will come off. Trust us, it will! Even if you…

My favorite heathy recipe book is "Eating for Life" by Bill Phillips, also founder of the Body for Life challenge if you have heard of that. The recipes are easy, and dont focus on calories per say, but on healthy ingredients and great taste. My book is so beat up I use it so often :ohwell: You can get it for $10 used on…

You look amazing!!!! Great job!!!

Alot of bars near me now have a hummus app. Or maybe some chili or soup w/ crackers?
-
I haven't tried it, but I did see that the alcohol content is only like 2.4%!!! Isn't that like having a 55 calorie glass of water w/ a shot of nyquil? :laugh:

Happy Friday to you too! Thanks for being such a great motivator on here. You really brighten this board up quite a bit, its very refreshing! :drinker:
-
Oh the pictures are awesome!!! Shows what a great job you are doing!!! Amazing, can't wait to see those changes in myself. Keep up the great work!!!
-
Um, yeah i know I am unique. I dont need a lecture on feeling good about myself, that wasn't the question, nor the answer i was looking for. I'm just trying to understand where other people measure so I can figure out if I am doing it right or not. I tend to measure in different spots and I'm never sure which spot is the…
