I have done the trouble zone one and I can't remember how long that one was off the top of my head. I normally do 45-60 min workouts but it's with only 30 of it being cardio, the rest was weight training and abs.

Hey Heather! Welcome to MFP! I recently joined as well and have hit that plateau that you're speaking off. I've always been an active person but within the last year the stress of getting ready to graduate from college and moving and all that has caught up with me. The things I used to do are not working for me this time…

I don't have any kids but I do have pets and they have put several holes in my yoga balls and I know what you mean...want to put them up on craigslist. Which is ironcially where I get alot of my sports equipment lol. :laugh:

yeah just the puppy is cute greeneyedmonster.....just kidding you're adorable too. I have dimples as well..Just don't have any pics on my computer to load. :cry:

oo skinny-ball...they should have those ya know. But just for us MFP's. And have like before and after contests. and stuff. That's be sweet!! Ok I'm done now:blushing:

Ok so this will be my third post today because I accidentally posted on last weeks already for this week and someone else tried to start a new one so here we go again. I haven't budged sadly :cry: but this is my hope... SW:170 CW:168 GW (for this week) 165. I know it's three pounds but two years ago I could do 2-3 pounds a…

Hi Sunnday, I'm also from Ohio. I have a guy as well who likes me the way I am but I'm not so sure I like me the way I am. So, putting up a pic is easy, just go to "My Home" and go to your "Settings" tab and you should be able to figure it out from there. :happy: Good Luck on the weight loss.

oops posted on last weeks...this week is still the same saldy...won't budge. What I find interesting is the fact that I can tell that I've gained weight (before I joined this of course) and when I began to try and lose weight no one noticed that I had gained...even my boyfriend so I'm thinking that maybe I just lost alot…

So I'm still stuck on the scale....:cry:

I know how you feel as well. I have IBS but what effects me is not instantaneous pain but the day or later on in the day pain and or bloating to the point of just crawling into bed and not moving. I thought for a while that I might have had Chrone's (luckily no) but my doc warned me it could be down the road since I'm…

This is very random and I'm just looking around at other posts since I'm somewhat new...but I love that pic...such a cute puppy. I'm a sucker for puppies

So I missed the start of the month for the Shred because I hardly check MFP on the weekends..ususally soo busy but here I am. I just ended my membership at a gym because of costs so this will be a perfec tthing to pick up since I get Fit TV On Demand with my cable plan so I have alot of Jillian's and Bob's!! Workouts. I've…

Bump...can't wait for my after shot :wink:

Thank you for this post. I wanted to make sure Iwas doing these right when I started and it loks like I did. I also do about 3 miles 3x a week. I've been going string for about a month so I started doing small temp runs and those even hurt the next day even though I'm doing like half the miles. But I definitely see…

I confess that I constantly am trying to have enough calories left in the day for a sweet treat in the evening, even though that's the worst time to eat them and I shouldn't be anyways..grrrrrrr But I love them sooooo much, those little debbies are the devil:devil:

Along with the angel food ministries...you could try schwans. I've noticed they've added alot of healthier items to their online database. By ordering and having it delivered to your home you also get the benefit of saving gas and not having to deal with going to the store. I always seem to spend more when I'm walking…

Since I'm always crunched on time I rely on the 30 minute meal cookbooks. And alot of them are pretty healthy too. Rachel Ray is great and she has alot of cookbooks. She's famous for all her different soups and creative grilling recipes. Hope this helps!! She has a website too www.rachelray.com

I found that too when I lost a bunch of weight a couple eyars ago (since then I've sadly put it back on which is why I'm here) but people at my college were askign me that as well. Wtih being in school and you're always so busy, people don't understand how I did it. Alot became concerned that I was harming myself to lose…

How about this...I challenge you all to stop eating at 7pm (if you're not already) Hope you don't mind me joining, I love challenges and this one has always seemed to work for me in the past. I find that it helps me sleep better because my system has calmed down from digesting food by the time I want to go to bed and since…

Just posting to get the newest thread. Hello MFP Runners! It's raininghere and I'll be out in it all evening so hopefully it calms down. Running tomorrow!! I hope :wink:

Pasta, Cheese, and any kind of mexican food. MAN I love mexican food.!!! :laugh:

Wow thanks Russia! I've alwayshad trouble grooming my dogs, I never knew that about egg yolks!! I'll have to try that because I run into the same problem with just the yolks left after using the whites. Thanks!

So I'm sort of late in posting something but I did start in June, even if it was at the end of June. I'm not doing to well but I think it is because I just started on some new medication and the doctor did say my weight would be all out of wack until my system got used to the stuff, I think I'm almos there because I'm…

Well last night was not a good night for running apparently. I got on the tredmill, since it was really nasty humid out, and started some interval training. Haven't done it in some time so I took it a little easier than I normally do but ten minutes in my right knee started pounding :cry: So I went on this new machine I…

Someone mentioned something about when you get older, after years of tanning, your skin looks like leather..I've seen people like that and let me tell you. It's alot like getting the benefit now and seeing the cost later. Who wants to look like a dark leather hand bag when they get old because they wanted to look gorgeous…

Wow all that food you make sounds amazing. I wish I had the time and/or money to do all that. Sadly I'm still in school and go to work as well so I never seem to have time to cook like that. I normally do quick and easy stuff like those all natural banquet complete family meals (you know the ones that come in a box and…

Ok so since I'm just getting back to running it seems I have alot to learn still. I've never heard of VO2 or whatever it is and how do I figure out what mine is. Itried to look at runnersworld but it didn't do a good job explaining it to me. Can someone help me? Thanks:flowerforyou:

I've had problems back and forth with "tummy issues" I have mild IBS and I feel bad for whoever has full blown IBS. Things change month to month it seems. The one thing I found to really help is oatmeal as someone already stated and I drink warm tea in the evening. I know it sounds weird but it kinda jsut helps things…

I love stuffed pork chops. But to make it a lil healthier instead of just getting stove to por something I use stuff I already have in the fridge/freezer. Butterfly the chops. Mince up some celery, onion, peppers, and if you're feeling a lil sweet and savory, apples! Mix with some bread crumbs (I usually take wheat bread…

I can relate to the broad shoulders. I am also 5'4 and have a very curvy body. Even with wide hips my shoulders are still wider. I know that it's tough to find shirts that fit just right and I can get down as well, especially when shopping. What I normally do in those situations and think about the part sof my body that I…
