Awesome job!!! I know all about the getting into the tube struggle--what a great feeling! Keep up the good work!

Anyone who is wanting motivation to lose 50 lbs by Christmas add me!! I am all about setting goals and keeping others motivated too!! Maybe we should start a little groupie group for all those wanting 50lbs down for our Christmas gift!! Friend me and let's keep each other going!

my husband is the first one I tell as soon as I weigh myself... shoot he is the only one I tell! we are both trying to lose weight so I know his weight and he knows mine... in fact tomorrow is when I weigh in and he has already told me I hope it goes down so you will be in a good mood :)

I understand I am posting this on a non-medical board and that people here are not my doctor, but I just wanted to hear from others who might have similar experiences and what their experience was with the medication.

I thought I couldn't go to the gym alone either...but I love it! I do like going with my husband, but we never do the same thing--- I just like looking across the gym and catching his glance and it motivates me. We tried doing the whole strength training/cardio together...but I like the elepitical for my ankle and he likes…

Awesome Work!! How long did it take you?? You can really tell a difference which gives me hope--as I am just starting and have 17lbs to lose to get my first 20!

Thank you for the support!!!!!! I am not giving up or throwing in the towel-- just going to try harder!

I understand fruit isn't enough for breakfast...but I am not much of a breakfast eater so some mornings I'm not hungry or really want anything--so that is why I just had fruit that one morning. I agree the pie wasn't the best decision...but I did make sure to cut back and not have bread on my burger and just ate the patty…

Awesome job!!! Can't wait to see more progress pics--- keep it up!

I am trying to eat them back, but man it's hard. I am not starving myself by no means. I have just been eating when I am hungry, but sometimes after working out in the morning I am not hungry so I have been making myself have breakfast....if not I would be even lower on the calories. I also have been drinking a lot of…

I know that... but I was hoping to see like at least an once or something less-- I have been working out more than I have ever doing some days 2 hours at the gym. I wasn't going to weigh myself until this coming Monday, but I am going out of town for the weekend and just wanted to see. I am not throwing in the tall just…

I made my diary public. I am planning on only weighing myself once a week...but since we are going out of town this weekend I just wanted to have a sneak peek before I weigh in next Monday. I weigh in first thing in the morning too...but I just wanted to see if there would be a difference after going to the gym for 65…

Lose fat obviously... I am only working out twice a day because my schedule allows it-- I am a teacher and I am on summer break, so I have a lot of free time. When school starts I will only probably be able to get 1 workout in a day if that. So, I am just taking advantage of my time. I hear you about eating more when I…

I'm glad i asked I would never have figure that out!

What is a NSV?? I have seen several people say that and I have been trying to figure it out....

I have been drinking 9 plus cups of water since starting...oh you know Monday. I have like one crystal light packet (I don't count that in my water intake) and I am working on having less diet coke. Other than that I don't drink anything else-- no alcohol or any sugary drinks here. I have also been going to the gym for up…

Check out my profile picture--- that saying is so key in the the weight loss journey...just think your ticker could be like mine still on 0 :) I just started Monday...so keep your head up high!

Well I got my net to 600.... I will try to have healthy snacks more throughout the day when I work out twice in one day...it's just so odd to me. I didn't feel like I was missing out or starving myself today... I just ate when I was hungry.

about 120lbs...I have a long journey a head of me!

I hear what ya'll are all saying.... I don't want ya'll to think I am starving myself--- I had breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I wasn't hungry between so I didn't have any snacks. I am a teacher so I am taking advantage of summer break and getting an extra workout in.... I'm not sure what I should do?

Here are my stats for today: 1283---Calories Remaining Goal Food Exercise = Net 1770 1548 - 1061 487

Thanks everyone for the help!! I have been to body pump before, but I am new to MFP and I want to enter it to as close as possible. Being that I am heavier (282-- blah I hate having to type that in!) I feel that I will burn more than 400, but I will put 500ish into my MFP. I don't have a heart rate monitor or body…

Anyone else take body pump--- I could use advice on how you enter the workout!!

Do you have to purchase The Shred? Is it a DVD?
