I made specific exercise for each different dvd. Ex: Leslise Sansone Jog/Walk 1 mile. I log in the minutes and then calories. It is about 100/mile. I since have gotten an HRM and know the exact calorie per work out. You can also log it under-low impact aerobics and it comes out nearly the same.

Two days ago I posted almost the same thing to my friends. I had my first cheat day (whole day) 800 calories over. It has taken me 5 days to get back to the same weight. The weight wasn't the issue it was the continual cravings and snacking I did after that day. I'm finally back on track, but I don't want to have another…

It is a yeast rash.

Sorry to hear of your mother's passing. There is a blessing she left you though. You have the clarity and courage to change your life. Congratulations on that! You can friend me if you would like. I have a small but great group of friends. I like keeping it small. We encourage one another and direct one another when…

I have been like that since Friday. Last Thursday, I decided to have what I wanted. I can't get over the cravings. It is now Monday and I'm still dealing with it. I am trying to drown the cravings with water, but it has been hard!

I tried the 1200 calories for less than a week. It wasn't enough calories for me. I was weak and very cranky. I read the message boards and discovered BMR, and TDEE. I looked on line for calculators and kept adjusting my calories until I had one that I could work with and still lose. I went in and manually changed my…

I totally forgot one of favorites that will keep you laughing. The Cold Dish. They have made a series now on tv about the Sheriff. "Longmire"

The book stayed with me for quite awhile. It was very interesting narrative, but I loved it.

90 days yesterday. I officially weigh tomorrow,but it was 22 lbs. This morning.

I find that I sleep much deeper and usually fall asleep within 5 to 10 minutes. I haven't taken ambien for weeks now.

Congratulations! I am working towards that goal. Even with 20 lbs down, I can't stop taking mine yet.

I do for the most part. I always go in and alter, but it gives me an idea of what I'm dealing with for the day.

I made meatloaf with mine last night. Tacos would be good or salisbury steak.

I forgot to add that I drink 8+ cups of water a day and watch my sodium (hbp) I also eat some of my exercise calories.

I am fairly new to this, 90 days today. I have lost 20 lbs. (as of last Friday) My daily calorie goal is 1500 calories. I do 30 to 40 minutes of cardio a day, if I don't walk. I try to walk 3 -4 times a week (anywhere from 3.5 to 5 miles, time permitting) I eat what my family eats. I don't deprive myself. I am 52 and…

I think I'm doing fairly well. I'm on target for 1 pound per week. I am 52 and am hypothyroid. It is doable. I try to lighten up my recipes and manage by portion control. I weigh and measure everything. I just started paying close attention to my sodium and have about 10 glasses of water a day. I also try not to go below…

Does potassium supplements help as well? I know I should try to get it from fresh foods, but it is nearly impossible for me.

I could only walk 7/10ths of a mile my first time out, and I wasn't pushing a stroller. I was amazed how quickly I picked up distance and speed. I am nowhere near where I plan to be. It is a slow journey. I'm trying not to get down about things. There are so many cliche things I could say and have had said to me, but they…

Thanks!

One more question... how tall are you?

Thanks! Bump

Great success story and great visualization! Keep going strong.

Lucky you, my machine said 64 calories for 21 minutes. I don't sweat like this when I burn 64 calories doing aerobics. Mine doesn't have the features for weight, height or gender.

Those abs are from lifting weights? Wow! I am clueless on weights.

Amazing... bump for my husband to see the transformation.

I can only imagine how hard it would be to get any kind of pork there. You are one popular guy on that return trip. It sounds like a lot of fun!

I was kind of feeling bad this morning, because I love me some bacon... I have 2 slices at least three maybe 4 times a week. It is usually the thin cut. I adore it and it makes me happy and is within my limits. I tend to go over my sodium, but it isn't totally the bacon that is doing it. I was shocked at how much sodium is…
