Thank you cnbethea! I love when the "... in 5 weeks..." thing says a nice low number. Sometimes mine shows I'll be in the 170s if I kept it up. Even though it's unlikely in 5 weeks, it's still nice to see! lol Nice job porterbaby! Sounds like you've found something that's working for you - keep it up! Trace - I'm sure the…

I've exercised on and off my whole life (played sports when I was young and through high school) but I would only do it for a few weeks and stop UNTIL I got a HRM. It made all the difference in the world for me wanting to work out. It's really encouraging to see how many calories you're burning! I would HIGHLY recommend…

Hey and welcome! I'm from Georgia too.

I got in my 2 workouts - ChaLean Extreme Burn circuit 2 and Jari Love's extreme cardio. I burned over 600 calories! Not as good as last wednesday (over 1000 calories burned!) but I'll take it. I had to go to a funeral today, so I wasn't really in the work out spirit.. but I still got 2 in. I've got most of my water in…

I love all of Jillian's DVDs. Banish Fat Boost Metablosim is my fave, but I really like the 30 Day Shred too. Jackie Warner's dvds are great - Power Circuit Training is really good. TaeBo is really a good work out and it's fun. I like the Firm's workouts.. but sometimes I don't feel like I'm coordinated enough to do all…

You look great! Keep it up!

Forget what you did or didn't do. Focus on each day in itself and try to make daily successes. It can become overwhelming to look at the big picture sometimes. But you can't fail if you do your best daily. I do all my workouts with DVDs, so I have quite a collection. They come in handy! They're always here ready for me…

I'm in. :smile:

What the clock says doesn't matter here, it's just not eating before bed. It's a good idea to go to bed a little hungry (of course not hungry enough that you can't sleep, but definately not a full stomach either). This is why the rule of thumb is usually don't eat 2-3 hours before bed. You should be fine if you finish…

Awesome job!

I love almost every AC/DC song, they always get me ready to work out!

Nice job Porterbaby! It feels like forever since I've lost anything! But Tom came to visit. Regardless of how I do this week I'm not putting off weighing in next week. It's been at least 2 weeks since I've weighed in on here. But, even though my CW on here is 195.4, I saw 194.8 on the scale last week when I took a peek at…

I bought the program on Amazon.. since it was much cheaper on there than the beachbody site. It's a great program.. this is my second time through it. It's great you got your cast off and got to celebrate! My boyfriend and I went to Red Lobster last weekend. We don't have many good restaurants around where we live. We have…

LOL I would have loved to been there and saw that!

Nice job!

You look absolutely amazing! Your story is very inspirational and like others said.. it just goes to show that this can be done. You did it with many obsticles in your way. Thanks so much for sharing - your story is probably more inspirational than you even realize.:flowerforyou: Congrats on a job well done - you deserve…

I've had a pretty healthy eating plan so far today, and I've got one workout in, ChaLean Extreme Burn circuit... now it's time to walk the dog and get my second workout in. I've been feeling lazy today. I gotta shake that feeling! Good luck everyone!

That's awesome! I know you must be ecstatic - good job and good luck in maintenance. You can do it!

I don't really know what the workout consists of, but you can put aerobics (high or low intensity, but I'm assuming that would be a high intensity workout) or if it involves weights you can put strength training or circuit training in the cardio section of the exercise log and it should give you a pretty good rough…

You look great! Congrats on the 60 lost and good luck on the rest. You're doing awesome!

It varies from person to person.. but for me it's been about every 15-20 pounds. I'm 5'6.

I'm in! :happy:

I'm in college (my last year :bigsmile:), and I don't have any kids. Just my puppy who is my child for now. lol

My weight is still the same.. but I am going to post my goals for August: - Make dinner at home through the week! I eat out so much.. I know it's what's slowing my progress. - Work out 5-6 days a week.. I'm doing ChaLean Extreme for the second time. So I get 3 strength days in + cardio on most days after my strength…

My rewards are: 190: manicure 180: 2 new outfits 170: pedicure 160: massage 154: (or whatever final goal may be) shopping spree! My goal for losing 50 pounds/getting under 200 was laser hair removal on my legs. :)

This is what I'm doing too. My ending goal as of now (154) is actually the highest of what the BMI chart says I can weigh to be considered "healthy" for my height. But if I'm happy before I get there or if I get there and feel I need to lose a few more I will. It's best to just stop when you feel you're at a weight that…

I went to Vegas last October to celebrate my 21st birthday! It was a lot of fun :happy: - hope yall have a great time when you go, and good luck reaching your goals!

It has gotten quiet around here.. I've been busy painting and cleaning up a house.. it's SO hot. I know I've burned some serious calories doing that! But I don't wear my HRM because I don't want to get it messed up or anything - guess that's bonus calories. :wink: Yesterday I decided to take a run on the treadmill. I…

This is true for men... I'm doing ChaLean Extreme and I lift pretty heavy with that program. All I noticed is that I'm toning and my strength has improved a lot. Oh and I've noticed I can see a lot more definition in my muscles when I flex! But it's definately not bulk.. The reason is women just don't have enough…

I cna really see a difference - you look great! Keep it up :)
