I find that people will not make a change until they are ready or something happens to make them change as sickness, self esteem hits bottom, aches and pains to limit mobility. However you have to do it for yourself and others may get jealous but that jealousy says your doing a great job. No matter what all of us here are…

I have given up soda's, beer, rum and cokes and coffee. I have promised to do this for seven weeks. I want to see how if effects me in my weight loss before I go to Las Vegas. I am entering week five. I am nine pounds down. However that was the first week. Not much has changed since then.

I have to say that I do not have people in my life that are like that. It is sad that so many of you do. All I have to say is that life is to short and you shouldn't have to have negative people in your life. Just remember it is their insecurities and they have to power to change their lives if they really wanted too.…

I know how you feel. Last week wasn't my best either. Last Friday thru Sunday I ate whatever I wanted and I didn't exercise at all. Yesterday after work I just slept. But today I made the choice and effort to get back on track. If anything just think of how you feel after you workout or eat right. I really haven't lost any…

Okay doing much better today. I have done my morning workout and have been eating healthier. I am getting my house cleaned and getting the shopping done. It is such a better day. Its just after one in the afternoon and I already have over 10k in steps. :tongue:

Another crappy day. :0( My patients at work were in bad moods, it was hectic beyond belief. I come home and everyone here is in a bad mood except my son but he does his own thing. Im exhausted. So so far no workout. However tomorrow is my day off and I can focus on me and get back on track. Maybe I can jump start my weight…

I like what I am doing now but weight loss is slow. When I did TaeBo I lost 30# in three months. Not to mention I am 47 and most activities gets my heart beating. However mentally I am staying at 30. I like working out in the mornings. It starts my day off right however I work mornings and start at 7 a.m.. Afternoon…

My first week I lost ten pounds and have been battling the last three weeks. First week its all water weight.

I would say that it depends on where you get your tattoo. However on the chest I think I would wait and let that be your reward for your goal weight loss. I am going to get a tattoo on my forearm once my weight is between 180-190. It will be the number 220 with two lines through it to remind me to never get to that weight…

I am not in nursing school but I have been a CNA for the past 10 years. I know stress. I get 36-40 patients a day. Ya lucky me I know.

If you like that gym there is no reason for you too leave, however I would get a new trainer. He has no right to do that to you.

I didn't see this post in the beginning of the month however I workout Monday thru Friday with weekends as my rest days. That is how it has been for me for the last two weeks.

CONGRADULATIONS!!!!!! 160 lost your kickin A--. Great job. You must have been doing something right. It will all work its self out and you will be losing again. Just make time for yourself. Make others wait. 30-60 min. will not hurt anyone in your family if they have to wait for you. This is for a healthier you. Today I…

To get rid of my sleep apnea so my husband doesnt wake up to a corps one day. And I don't want to be in the 200 range any more.

Yes that seems low. I am 5'8" and when I was in school I was 145 I look at those pics now and I was way too thin, I would think 170 would be best for my but would be happy at 180 and that might be the weight that would be good for you since your taller. I think 155 would make you look sickly for your heighth. But what…

Funny I was doing the same thing last night minus the crying. Last week I worked hard and lost 9 pounds. Yea for me more than I had expected. This week I am working even harder getting more steps in more miles in than last week and I have gained two pounds. I don't get it. Its VERY FRUSTRATING!!!!! I was thinking then why…

I just joined here this past week. I decided to finally make the change. I am 47 and I have lost ten pounds in eight days. I am making the commitment to healthier life style. I would love to have all of you as my friends. Feel free to add me. We can reach our goals together.

I bought the body bugg and used it for several months. However I found the Fitbit and love that way more. It is a lot cheaper you don't have to pay yearly for it because Fitbit is like this forum free for the memebers. Fitbit is addictive too and small. Check it out. If you still want the Body Bugg I would sell you mine. I…

I'm new to this board too but I am really happy how things work here. I was away from exercise and good food decisions. I decided last Monday to change my life and get serious about ME. I made the choice and this morning when I got up I weighed myself and I had lost 7 pounds. Way more than I was expecting. I can't wait to…

Well I am 5'8" as of last Monday I was at 219 I lost 6 pounds this week which brings me to 213 but my goal is 180. Depending on how I do I might bring it to 170. I also find now that I have been married 26 years and I have raised three kids myself that it is time for me to start taking care of me. I have Sleep Apnea due to…

Im really looking forward to logging on this site. I really like message board and reading about everyones stories. So just a couple of questions that I have. How do you log your picture on to this site for profile and are any of you fitbit users as well? I would also love adding all of you as my friends as well. I feel…
