Hey, I'll add you.

I know I'm late, but if you're still looking at these I really want to join. I have 70# I'd like to loose and I'm actually getting into heavy lifting and eating much more clean. Been I lifting for 5 months already. I really need the support!

I have a strong like for lifting weights. STRONG. We are stronger than we think and when I lift heavy like that opposed of doing 100 reps of 10 lbs pushes me harder to just try and lift heavier and to learn all I can as a beginner. It's a feeling of accomplishment. It's a different type of exhaustion. I've noticed the…

No way. I could not imagine charging my care once upon a time care takers who let me stay rent free for 18 years +. Yes, they were obligated and likewise you owe them the same obligation in return. If they really need a place to stay, in my opinion, making sure your parents are well taken care of, takes priority over you…

Aww. I think that's rather sad more than strange. I wonder what are you saying and thinking to yourself while you are eating in the mirror? Eat healthy most of the time and enjoy the time when you aren't. 1 large slice...even 2 will not make you fat. A life style of eating junk everyday will no? I've never heard someone…

I think discovering an activity that brings you a psychological high does the trick. Running/cycling/zumba never quite did that for me. Just the thought of that one thing should start bringing out the endorphins that, in turn, get you going even more. Getting out of bed, getting dressed, the drive over to the gym or…

I just started NRWL4W yesterday morning and so far it's ok. I think it will get better the more I start to feel comfortable. I would like to keep up with someone but the group made up for this is dead! It's encouraging to hear all the different results. Would be even better to have pictures. I took pictures for day 1 and…

Do it! I've been a vegetarian all 26 years of my life but that doesn't mean I eat healthy. Now I'm starting to turn things around and seeing all the nutrients I've been missing out on that I should have gotten as a vegetarian who eat healthfully. Do your research and don't get tripped up on bias "research" and "statistics"…

Yes! I'm so glad that I found the group. I'm Trina and I'm a nightshirt worker and I also happen to be a vegetarian. I attend body pump often, multiple times a week and that class has pushed me to go further with scratching that itch to lift weights that body pump just could not satisfy. I want to use NRWL4W as a starting…

I'm in. My goal is to loose 8 lbs. I have fat that will. not. budge. So basically, I'm going to keep up with my workout schedule but add a little more cardio. S-Body pump and then fitting in a one mile run before work. M-repeat Sunday T-Body combat and cycling W-Body pump + Body combat TH-Body Attack + Cycling F-Body pump…

I saw your pictures and you were just melting away. It's nice to hear feedback about these class for people like me who like weights but haven't progressed into weights on the weight floor or are only interested in group settings when it comes to weights. That's cool of you to share.

How long have you been at it? I say give it more time. Hang in there!

You look awesome. I ought to break down my weeks and do what you did.

I think body pump is awesome for getting started with using weights, but only if you CHALLENGE yourself. Personally I think BP fails to do any good for resistance training if you stay comfortable. The magic happens when you up your weight and make sure you give your muscles a chance to heal. I feel stronger and I can tell…

I'm not of the older generation but I'd like to know why as well. I met a White guy in college who was from Zambia and had lived there pretty much his entire life. I dont know of anyone who would refer to him as...."African American". I honestly dispise the term "Atfrican American" when it's used to discribe Americans who…

It's nice to see a beautiful, shapely woman realize that she is exactly that and not shooting for a number just b//c. You really should be a model, you're a knock out....no seriously.

Smoking :love:

!! Woot woot. You look like a shapely doll. I'm about at your starting weight.

Wow! That's amazing...wow is about nearly all I can say.

Honey, you look great!

I'm glad to see posted pictures. I love looking at before and afters.

I've gone 3-4 times a week for 3 months. When I first started I was going 5X a week,I liked it so much, but then I learned how that was a no no. What keeps me motivated is not staying stuck in at the same weight. Body pump would get awfully ba ba boring if I did. I see these ladies lifting their 2 donuts every class and I…

The scale is such a little liar. It doesn't say...oh hey Amy, you been awesome getting low in body pump and increasing your weights to get your heart pumping...yep you lost fat but you gain muscle! Congrats! You said something to me that confused me. I by no means am a weight loss expert, and forgive me if I'm wrong, but I…

I'm also new to MFP, but I've been doing body pump since May..3 months already. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that class. I feel stronger every week and I've upped my weight. I went from using a medium plate (5kg), with or without 2 small donuts on either side. But now, on each side Squats: two (10 kg) Chest: one (kg) and 2.5 donut…

I would be doing well to loose about that much. I've at least...60 lbs (yikes) to loose but, I'll get there.

Looks like you've been doing great so far. You go honey! I'm hoping that I an find MFP on here too, particularly night shift workers. I would like to friend you.

I understand what you mean! I work 7p-7a at a hospital. It's frustrating to watch what I eat. It's like my days run into each other.
