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…

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…
