What time do you go to bed? I will have to switch to 5am workouts when I go back to work in two weeks and I'm afraid I'll be falling asleep at 9pm.

I'm far from an expert, but you probably shouldn't do the sculpt training every day. Muscles need a day of rest to repair. That's why bodybuilders alternate upper/lower body lifting days.

I don't have a heart rate monitor, but I log mine under circuit training.

135 is my goal. I am 145 now, but extremely out of shape, so I think I look bigger. I'm also apple shaped, so 145 on me gives me a 34 inch waist.

I just started today. About 10 years ago, I did it and stopped halfway through. I really want to make it all the way through this time and then move on to something harder I can do with my hubby like P90X or insanity. Good luck!

Thanks for all of the responses. I decided on Power 90 (not X, the old one) because I have an old VHS copy.

Second this.

I feel your pain. My stomach and hips are almost the same size. I'm not sure there is much you can do except reduce overall. Even when I was a kid (i.e. VERY thin), I still had the same shape and have been pulling my pants up my whole life.

We have a 4 year old puggle (pug, beagle). She has a great temperament and is fabulous with my kids; she isn't the best smelling dog though...

I just had the most juicy black plum. Sweet corn is my summer favorite.

feel free to add me. I'm an Ohio mom too :)

Cold salads.. tuna, chicken, etc. I love Greek salads when it's really hot. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/greek-salad-iii/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=greek%20salad&e8=Quick%20Search&event10=1&e7=Home%20Page

Just finished The Host by Stephenie Meyer. Wicked is worth it if you get to Elphaba's college years and beyond.

Thank you for the link, I will check it out. My goal is to improve my shape, not necessarily my weight. I don't really have much money to spend on equipment, but do have a treadmill and some dumbells (up to 12lbs).

bump. anyone?

That's an interesting topic and one that most of us struggle with. It's hard for me not to just say to myself... well I already blew this week and eat terrible all weekend, "starting over" on the next Monday. I have "started over" good habits, eating/exercising/cleaning my house /getting work stuff organized on MANY…

Is this from quick weight loss or pregnancy? My stomach looked exactly like yours for about 9 months after I had each of my kids. I am at my prepregnancy weight and my oldest is 7 now. It looks better, but will never be "normal" without surgery. I'm not brave enough to post a picture, but now, the "hang" is very slight and…

I don't do a whole day, but usually I put in my dinner early so that I can see what kind of calories I have left for the day. Occasionally I have to change the quantity, but I usually know within 100 cal. what I am eating for dinner. Now if I could just stop snacking at night..............

That's awesome kini324. How did you get the motivation to start? I'm not really a morning person and it is sooooooooooo hard to get up any earlier than I have to.

Another teacher here :) I feel terrible that I haven't found enough time to exercise this summer and am really trying to figure out how I'm going to work it in during the school year. My only options are early morning (as in 5:00 am) before everyone gets ready for school or at night after my 7& 9 y.o,'s go to bed. The…

I am down to 145 (-2). This was a good week :) Congrats amanda.

I had never heard of it until MFP. But the first time I ever looked at it was after reading your post. Thanks so much! The food looks great.:happy:
-
I'm only trying to lose about 10lbs too. Going from 147 to 135. I know this will probably take a while... but it would be great if I could get it done before school starts in September (I'm a teacher). I didn't work out at all last week, only tracked my food, but will start this week.
-
This is my first week on MFP and I have been eating (and drinking!) too much this summer with all of the time off work. I am currently about 147 and I would like to get to 135. Since I am close to goal (I'm 5'5), it might take me a while.
