Ok count me in! I will give it a try. :bigsmile:

Wow you look FANTASTIC! I just love when people post their weight loss pics and they look so much younger with the weight off. It gives me hope that I will look younger also when I hit my goal weight....hoping to hit it before my 40th this March. :ohwell:

Congrats on you 5K and a big congrats on your time! :drinker:

:happy: Liked :happy: Fingers crossed you win! My goal is to be able to run a 5K with hubby. Lucky you on the cost of the gym I pay over $700 for the year.:ohwell: Oh well I do get my moneys worth out of it. :bigsmile:

Congrats! You love absolutely wonderfully thin! :bigsmile: Happy maintenance! :flowerforyou:

Feel free to add me. I have 50lbs to lose so not the same goals as you but I do love to support my friends daily. :bigsmile:

WooHoo that looks like fun! Going on a zipline is a goal of mine for the summer of 2013.

The Plus Side: I had the Merina placed 5 months ago for the same reasons. I couldn't leave the house because my flow was so heavy and I seriously thought some times I might bleed to death. I have to say the Merina has totally controlled my flow and now I can leave the house without worry of anything dripping down my legs…

FANTASTIC!!!!!! You look awesome!

I use a HRM with a chest strap and I burn 800 - 900 calories for a 60 min Zumba class sometimes more when I feel extra energetic....adding that I have 50 pounds to lose if that helps you.

That is an awesome amount of miles! :smile: Congrats and keep it up the year is not over yet! :laugh:

OK I MOVED MY *kitten* So stop shouting at me! :laugh: Walked 2 miles and I'm off to a Zumba class at the gym to be followed by another 30 mins on the elliptical. .....................ok I might have needed some shouting at. :blushing: Want to be friends? I need someone to yell at me once and a while, you know to keep me…

I think you might need a new scale. :smile: ZUMBA ZUMBA ZUMBA YA! good luck tomorrow!!!!!!

1500 calories a day for a man seems low to me. Eating too little can help you gain weight instead of lose it. My husband has lost most of his belly by cutting out some junk food but the thing that has helped him the most is strength training (he thinks dead lifts and power squats are the best). His tummy is slimmer and his…

I get it every so often but I have a Mitro Valve Prolapse (that's when a valve in your heart lets the blood flow the wrong way). I would see you doctor just to get it checked out.

I am now going to add some serious strength training to my routine! You look awesome!

LOVE LOVE LOVE your progress pics. Like you I would hide from that camera and one day my husband took a photo of me with my little on and I almost died when I saw the photo! I couldn't believe that was me. I was so sad and wanted to curl up into a ball and cry. Instead I started to exercise and count calories. 20 lbs down…

Exercise is a strange thing. Sometimes you just don't feel like doing it but you drag yourself to the gym and once you get started you feel awesome and don't want to stop. Crazy right? :laugh:

Happy Thanksgiving weekend everyone!...Canadian that is. Happy Friday to everyone else! :happy:

If you're looking pretty at the gym you're not working out hard enough. I always get a chuckle out of the girls who do their make up to go to the gym. You are pretty anyway so forget the makeup while working out. Plus most guys at the gym like the girls who are more focused on their workout then how they look. :wink:

That was an awesome workout you did! I would say you now need a day of rest. :wink:

Count me in. I'm off to a slow start this month due to a nasty cold but I will make it up during the month! Lets burn those calories. We can do it!!! October 1 - 0 2 - 0 3 - 450 4- 360

3 miles on Wednesday and 1 mile today =) Total 4 miles :bigsmile:

I like to use flat bread. Kids love to put on their own topping on their very own pizza. =)

Sorry no food suggestions here but I can say when I dropped 15 pounds (went from 206 to 191) all my reflux issues went away. Don't you just love it when you doctor tells you, you should be doing XYZ but doesn't tell you what you should be doing to get there.:grumble:

Same here not much loss on the scale but loving the more natural foods also. My husband is even joining me with healthier food choices. :wink:

I see you said you all ready have a HRM. Why don't you wear it all day and at the end of the day record how many calories you burnt and the next day just set that as a number to beat. I have read a lot of posts about the fit bit and it seems like it is a numbers thing...like taking more steps the next day, which = being…

Few ideas that you could try: * call Polar customer service. * You can also google 'how to update my weight on my polar ft4 HRM" that is how I figured out how to use my polar HRM.The little manual they give you isn't any help at all. * have you looked into the Polar web site? I think they have a common questions asked page…

I'm up for the challenge 24 hours of cardio it is! I have to say I do love cardio over strength training! :bigsmile: Good luck on reaching your goals everyone. We can do this! Amaizenblue44 Thanks for posting this challenge. :smile:

I will eat it all on Thanks giving...but I will bust my butt the day before and for a couple of days after! I can't wait for Monday to roll around. I will be picking up my turkey this saturday. yum =) I should add that I cook the dinner so I have control over what is served. :wink:
