I'm having the exact same problem! Hope we get an answer on here

I do both...but right now my tkd isn't as good as it was because I had back surgery. I'm not currently allowed to fight and I miss it so much!

I also HATE weightlifting. I love cardio! but I like the way I look when lifting heavy things. I have been thinner from cardio, and not liked my body near as much as when I was heavy lifting. No one can make you do it, but I see the best results when I do both.

I have the same mutation. My doctors haven't told me to do anything different

I go pretty hard at spin and I usually average about 450 calories burned...5'6 170. I have a polar chest strap that I'm really really happy with. I know you said a wrist one but the chest straps are way more accurate

I HATE OREOS

Me too! So frustrating!

Healthy heart. Had surgery 9 weeks ago, went back to spin 4 weeks ago, and since then resting heart rate has dropped from 63 to 56! Healthier more efficient heart!

I'm in nursing school trying to lose the last 17 pounds! I don't post much, but I do log almost every day. Trying to make it a habit. Please add me!

Wow that sounds great! I am glad it worked so well for u!

Anybody else like to share?

Wow thank you for sharing! Glad it was a success

Thank you! I don't expect to be completely pain-free but I have been in so much pain that any reduction will be good.

I've already started going numb for an hour or two and then the feeling comes back. My husband wants me to wait but I don't think waiting anymore will do any good

Thank you for your story. Permanent nerve damage is one thing I really want to avoid

Thank you for your response! Very encouraging

I am 28 and working on the last 20 #'s. I am in nursing school , so stress eating is a major problem...

Ps herniation was from car accident, and the rest of my disks r strong and healthy.

This^^^^ If I overeat I keep track and the next few days I try to lower the number by 1-200. After a few days I am usually right where I need to be.

add me!

I love naughty.....recipes

me!

I have tried free weights for years... just have trouble making myself do it. I have been doing machines for the last 3+ months and I have been able to stick with it better. So whatever works for you!

cherry diet pepsi! SO GOOD!

me me me!!!!!

I love my spin class! I do a lot better on that than just running on a treadmill

Hair stylist?

luv this! CW:168 WL:1 weigh in on sat GW: 145 (once I get there, see where I am and maybe readjust!)

I had a polar, and had trouble losing...Got a fitbit and the polar was overestimating my workout by about 300 calories. I have lost 6 pounds pretty quick with fitbit.

Rachel, viola and violin! luv baroque
