My overall goal is to lose weight and build more muscle. I have heard that you can lift weights and then after a month incorporate cardio. The cardiograph I would do would be hiit. Or would it be better to do both but obviously lifting first.

Hello everyone. My name is Amanda and I am from New York. I am married and have three children (7, 5, 1). I have been struggling with weight for the majority of my life. After my second child was born I was really close, like 15 pounds close to my goal weight. I was so happy with myself. However, I graduated college and…

Absolutely amazing! I applaud you for being able to face the issues at hand and fighting back. You look awesome. Congratulations!

You sound just like me. I work full time and I also have four children ages 12, 6, 4, and 9 months. Life is great but NUTS! I sometimes struggle with maintaining my workouts, I even have a schedule and I have been sticking with it for the past two weeks and this week I have started to struggle this week.

There was a lot to juggle for everyone I am sure, however, with the 551 reported weight loss there is now less that jiggles!! WOOHOO!!

Done! Team Paulie Walnuts!

Just so happened that when this challenge was posted someone made a comment on Facebook about how they feel so down about not being able to get to the gym and that she gained 5 lbs. I told her not to look at yesterday and look forward to tomorrow. 5 lbs is better than 25 lbs and to just start fresh tomorrow and do the best…

*Paulie Walnuts** Challenge Done!!! Bonus Done!!!

Hi Everyone!!! My name is Amanda and my life is never a dull moment. I am a wife, mother of four children, full time grad student and a prospective AIT (Administrator in Training) intern at a local nursing home. I have always been overweight for as long as I can remember. The lowest I remember my weight going down was 212…

Yes, I have stepped down as captain and will fight along side of all the soldiers this time. I was glad to be your captain, yet with my schedule I have decided out of fairness for everyone that I should pass the torch to someone else. Andersonjo0306 is fully capable and will lead this crew to victory! I will still be here…

"Exercise to be fit, not skinny. Eat to nourish your body...and always ignore the haters, doubters and unhealthy examples that were once feeding you. You are worth more than you realize." -- author unknown I have walked for a mile as well :) Go Paulie Walnuts!!! I will add later if I stayed under calorie goal

I would love to continue to be apart of this group, however, I cannot stay a captain as my obligations have taken over my life....so count me in as a soldier.

You mean the weight loss post? That would probably be my fault. I have been MIA because of minor surgery that I had and then an infection developed all on top of the stress of family and school. I am trying my hardest to fight my way back to my team and I feel bad that I have let everyone down :frown: I will try to update…

No weight lost....happy with that with the amount of stress from school that I am under right now

walked 5 miles :smile:

Hello crew, sorry I have been MIA for a bit. I was not feeling well and I have been working on my final project for grad school (I finish in 7 weeks!!), but I will let you know that I have busted my you know what this week and I will be here the best I can for you guys. I am on every day, just have not completed all of the…

Made my kids and I oatmeal. The oatmeal had old fashion oats cooked with water and I had 1 tsp. of light brown sugar and half a cup of blackberries. It was delicious!

I was not able to complete this challenge I was down for the count yesterday because of a dental procedure done. They said no exercising and eat soft foods. My husband was so kind to go grocery shopping and make dinner. What a doll right? Yea, except he got pizza, which is not exactly "soft" foods. So nonetheless, I was…

Stepped on the scale this morning at it said 250. That is a 4 pound loss :D

I recently posted this one a friends wall, "I hope all is well with you. Remember to keep going strong. You can do it. Here is one of my favorite quotes, "Exercise to be fit, not skinny. Eat to nourish your body...and always ignore the haters, doubters and unhealthy examples that were once feeding you. You are worth more…

mcdjmom you are amazing at what you do every day. I am glad you shared your story because you never know how it could help and inspire people right within this group who are not on your team. I know you have inspired me as a fellow Capo. People go through life thinking they cannot work out or eat right because they are…

Important information came down the pipe from the Don. Another crew member (ruth4111gut) has been put into witness protection and trh160 has replaced her. Please friend her if she has not done so already and welcome her to our crew.

There is a group. Search for NROLW and they have posts to explain it all.

I was able to complete the 5 miles on the elliptical, yet no bonus here tonight.
