  • SW: 195 LW: 192.2 CW: 190.8 GW: 130 Sorry, I really have been off the grid this past week and didn't post on Wed. I stayed the same but, after this weekend, not sure. Went over a friend's on Friday for girl's night and birthday party for daughter on Sunday. She turned five. Very very but still here. You are all doing great!
  • Thanks for posting OP. I have been looking for these as well and am in same boat $wise. I am missing 12s, 20s, 25s. May need 30 later...when knows. Checking out CL, ebay and Amazon.
  • SW: 195 LW: 192.2 CW: 190.8 GW: 130 Yay , finally something real! Went to a Tupperware party tonight and had choc lava cake. Haven't logged it yet. We'll see how much that bad boy was...eeek. Great job everyone!
  • I have had my bmf for 6 weeks or so and love it! I don't realize I am wearing it most times. For me it helps tremendously and I can't say enough good things about it. I vary wearing it on my arm and calf. It calculates either way. Have only tried on left side. I am sure you could wear on right side if you had to but, I…
  • SW: 195 LW: 190 CW: 192.2 GW: 130 :sad: Not doing well. I have had an awful couple of weeks. No excuse but, I am almost back to where I started. I am through being depressed about this. I am going to eat better this week and need to get back on track. With the exception of walking today, I haven't worked out since…
  • First of all, I am so sorry you had to experience this horrific act. As others have mentioned, your story has brought me to tears too. I was raped many times over as a child and have been through many hours of counseling to live life normally. To this day I still feel afraid of being attractive and I think subconsciously I…
  • I agree. If I was single, it would be just something to play with (a puppy), but not anything serious...Not trying to be rude but being honest like OP asked... ;) I have had a 28 yr old after me for awhile now and I am 39... love my husband so, no go. I suppose it's flattering...

  • I am glad that there is someone out there with the same issue I have! I am doing the same thing and have the perimenopause thing going on...yay! Stupid, I am only 39 but, I suppose my aunt was 39 when she was full blown menopause. whatever. I know one good thing is that I do feel my composition starting to really change so…
  • You are eating a tremendous amount of food and need to eat every 2-3 hrs I believe.
  • I have read this book and agree that is great info (if you follow it, of course). Pretty strict imo but, fabulous book. I may need to look back at it to spice up my nutrition. If I remember correctly, this is the man who recommends that for water consumption you should drink your weight in ounces. I had a hard time with…
  • Yeah I second this.. I did a double take...must be my eyes sort of thing...Wow!
  • CLX Burn Intervals and TF Stretch 10. Love the burn interval. Perfect mix of cardio and lifting. Sweet!
  • Couldn't agree with you more on all! You know your body well, I say go for all of it. As you know, I have felt less enthusiastic with TF myself. Still love it but, just needed to switch things up a bit for me. I am sure you will do great at what you are doing...Keep in touch (I am sure you are not gone for good). I wasn't…
  • That is awesome! I need to do mine again as well. I should take pics again too but, may wait a little longer for that.... :) happy for you!
  • Good morning! Finally, I am happy to say I lost 2 lbs!!!! SW: 195 LW: 190 CW: 188 GW: 130
  • Started week 2 this week of CLX/TF hybrid and lost 2 lbs!!!! I am so thrilled I got out of this plateau. It seems like forever since the scale has moved. I also recently started using a bodymedia so I am sure this helps too. So happy! :) hope everyone has a great day
  • I am 5'1" and weigh 189. Hope to be around 130 I think...
  • I am in week two of CLX/TF hybrid. I had one of my friends tell me to finish TF schedule before starting this hybrid. Although, I greatly value her opinion, I needed the lifting (I felt). I just became burnt with too much cardio with no real results. I am loving the mix so far and do feel stronger. As I am going to be…
  • SW: 195 LW: 188.2 CW: 190.0 I just feel like I am failing tremendously at this (I am). Trying not to think about it so much. I cannot be perfect with my food and I know this is a big part of the problem. I know I don't need to be perfect but, it's just so hard to focus sometimes. I have just lowered my calories again just…
  • This is me! I am glad someone else sweats like me.. :) usually, I am dripping. I see it as a good thing, though. Drink a ton of water to re-hydrate because I always feel like lose so much liquid... I know disgusting..I don't care.
  • Fire 45 today. Bodymedia technically says I burned 500 but my heart rate monitor says 311, so put 311 till I can get to a more steady number with this new gadget. I do like it though and will come in handy if I ever do my kbells again. The watch got in the way but armband won't. Have a great night everyone!
  • This is how I feel now. I am at 188 right now and am 5'1" I was at 155 and thought I was very large at that point and packed on more.ugh. My goal is probably going to be 130. I have been 125 at one point but, it was too small. 130 may even bee too small not sure. I was a size 4 at 125. Don't really care to be there but, a…
  • Dym - yeah, unfortunately, I have had that replaced as well as a new strap. They do say that the straps don't last long either...this is how they get ya I guess...don't get me wrong, when things are working well it's a great tool. Star - I hate HIIT15....bleh. Fabulous job Butterfly! W5D34- Fire55EZ...contemplating…
  • Fire 30 & Core 20. Star -yes summer is coming...lol...doesn't feel like it where I am :( I don't want to have to wear it all the time. Monie - that is the most wonderful feeling when others notice. Great job! Dym- I had issues and have always had issues with mine too. Double 00s no matter what I did that would come and go.…
  • Star- I know what you mean..it was a long day for me as well. I am getting used to working out late at night but, I think once warmer weather comes, this may have to change. Thank you for all of your advice on bm. I went for the two years but, yes, I agree with you that once I get used to how bm calcs things, I may not…
  • SW: 195 LW: 187.6 CW: 188.2 .60 up, not real concerned with this. I am still seeing a decrease in my measurements so this is all that really matters to me! This was kind of a sodium/sugar week overload for me....that will make anyone carry water weight. Onward!
  • Butterfly - Excellent job! Those are phenomenal results. I did Fire 55EZ today. My bodymedia came in today so, I am going to try and figure this thing out. Not sure I am wearing it to bed tonight, though. I want to read what it is I am supposed to do to set it up. I am sure it's pretty easy. I bought CLX last night and…
  • You need to have patience. Two weeks is not a lot of time to give your body to change. This is all in the process of the journey. Sometimes you can go up depending on many factors. You don't have your diary open so I can't see what you are eating. You should be eating your exercise calories back. If you aren't doing this…
  • Wow! You look phenomenal... I want this! How did you do it?
