You do look fabulous! and Congrats on reaching your goal! Well deserved!

Music has been getting me through EVERYTHING. I just bought a new album from a local artist thats gone national so thats what I have been jammin to lately Here's a few songs! The artists are Macklmore and Ryan Lewis http://youtu.be/QK8mJJJvaes http://youtu.be/xHRkHFxD-xY

I'm still trying to manage my time so my challenge to myself is to keep my workouts consistent. I've been waking up at 5 am to go workout and it has not been easy but it's the only time I can get it in and it's what I need, I also need to work on my will power and ability to say no to sweets and things that I know I don't…

Oh my those sounds absolutely delicious! I'm gonna share what I have been having for breakfast the past week and a half. Easy, simple, not even a recipe lol I need caffeine in the morning but I also need protein and I just don't have the taste buds for black coffee, so to limit the fat I make myself a protein mocha! 1…

LOVE all of these quotes, they were just what I needed!

I have been wanting to start the 30day shred but am nervous and have just not gotten around to it, maybe I will start with you! My week was terrible to be completely honest. I didn't log well. Either I didn't eat enough or I was eating terrible things when I did eat. Other than moving and walking around campus I have had…

Spokane here!

Super late post for me! Such a busy day! Hope everyone's day was good! Take over control- Afrojack ft. Eva Simons One more time- Daft punk Runaway baby- Bruno Mars

Thanks for the tip but I'll stick to what I'm doing, because it is working for me. I do believe everyone's bodies are different and I have had my thyroid checked, it's all good, My calories burned don't matter because I don't eat them back, I log them solely for the purpose of my knowledge.

I also agree with you, it just depends on each individual person though. Not eating back my exercise cals works for me, but I also have quite a large amount of weight to lose so my body has plenty of storage to live off of. Many people eat back their exercise calories because they believe they need to net over 1200 but…

And just to clarify, I work pretty damn hard when strength training. I also make sure to always stay in motion so if I'm taking a rest from lifting, I'm jogging in place. My heart rate stays elevated (I can tell this physically not just by my HRM) I sweat and work much harder than I do when just doing cardio, so I believe…

I saw your post, wasn't ignoring it, just stating that I don't agree. My trainer would beg to differ as well.

ABSOLUTELY! That is awesome! I love it. Very Halloween! I like the idea of black jeans and a top hat.

I count my calories from strength training. I wear a HRM and my heart rate does increase just as much with strength training as it does cardio, maybe not as continuously but definitely enough to count. I enter it manually created my own exercise titled "Strength training HRM"

:bigsmile: Happy camper over hurrrr! lol I am down 5.6 lbs. I am 22lbs away from my goal for halloween. Still 6 weeks to go and I believe I can still do it! BTW you are all doing fantastic!:flowerforyou:

You are on a roll girl! Keep it up!

I love that I can make the best out of the worst situations!

Lol! Love your jokes! And so glad you posted! I was hoping someone would! Q: What did the digital clock say to his mother? A: Look ma no hands!

*waves* heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! :bigsmile: :laugh:

I love that I can be so passionate about anything.

I love that I LOVE to LOVE haha:love:

Hey there! I think 8lbs is a very achievable goal! I have also heard that the last few pounds is the hardest to lose but my trainer who is the same height and around the same weight as you is still losing weight, and she currently lost 4lbs in the last 3 weeks so you could definitely do it. It will count on your diligence…

I love that I have such a great sense of humor

I would just like to say that your perseverance in doing this is fantastic, I have been wanting to do a juice fast, not quite 30 days because I would never have the will power but 5-10 days at most. My step mom and dad completed a 15 day fast under a nutritionist as well as a physician's watch and came out at the end…

I am excited to report my weigh in from 250 to 248, granted it was the 2 lbs I had gained in the first week that I lost but I am not going to let that stop me. I know now that I need to kick it up about 10 notches to get to where I want to be for Halloween :wink:

Great Idea! My weigh in is tomorrow so I will post then!

This thread has literally brought tears to my eyes and hope to my heart that this is possible for me too. You all look amazing and are so inspirational and motivating for me. Thank you and Congratulations!:heart:

Also sent you a request!

These all sound fantastic! I have been wanting to try the pizza burgers as well, I'm not huge on red meat so I'm thinking I would give it a try with ground turkey? Great job girl!

followed you! :)
