1) Fitting in single digit pants (almost, I'm down from a 15/16 to an 11jrs) 2) Looking good in my bikini I got from Victoria's Secret that I've been saving for months for Las Vegas next week! 3) Going out with friends and not being the fat chick. 4) Keeping up with my son 5) Being years away from now and looking back…

I was gonna post but my damn pics are always too big and I'm tired of playing with it. But I am down from 189 to 162 and it's great.

Everybody looks great!

OH and I did Jillian Michaels 30day shred (for 28 days) lol. I got done about 3 weeks ago. And lots of water. I didn't starve myself or anything.

Thank you! I run or do the elliptical at LEAST 30 mins a day (except sundays I take that day off), sometimes more if I'm feeling up to it. I just log everything into MFP. I sometimes go over, but eh. I'm set at 1300 cals right now, but I always get more because of exercise calories. So usually I eat around 1500-1800 cals a…

OKAY I FIXED IT!!! So yeah, that's like 6 months of working out.

UGH Why aren't they posting.....they are public on photobucket! I WILL post them lol

You look fantastic!!!

I haven't been checking in, but tomorrow will be Day 4 of Level 3 for me and there's definitely a difference between now and when I started! I'm excited to be done soon. I've been pushing through every day, despite the fact that I caught a small cold last week and now have a teensy residual cough.

I used this to calculate my BMR and then on the next page it tells you how much you should multiply that by, based on your activity level. Then if you decrease that by 500-1000 calories as a deficit, that's how much you should be eating. So plugged that number into MFP and when I work out I DO eat my calories back, because…

Yeah! i just started day 1 this morning!

I'm looking at the Polar FT4 now still. Thinking about getting it. Is there something that can track your calories burned all day long, and not just during workouts?

I just imagine it would have to be tight to not slide down, I guess. Bras have straps so it keeps it up by your shoulders, kwim? But, then again I've never tried it, so if they stay on without having to be tied super tight, then it would be fine. Thanks for the recommendation, too! I'm going to go check it out now.

Yep! I recently posted pics in a fb group I'm in with my 18lbs ive lost. I'm 5'7" and just got to 170lbs from. Someone asked what my goal was and I said Ill see what happens at 150 and a couple people said things like "omg you'll be too skinny!" I don't think so. I'm not even in a healthy BMI range yet...silly people. Keep…

Me too! My son just turned 3 a couple weeks ago. I don't feed him junky food and he loves salad too. Hes always grabbing at my food.. Maybe if you had a goal in mind, you could tell yourself no. Do you have an event coming up this summer, like a wedding, reunion, vacation? Something you want to look good for? Every time I…

I have the same question!

So are you guys who are a good way through seeing results? I want to get it but don't know if I should. Right now I do cardio 6 days a week and lift 3x a week. Should I add 30DS in?

Wow! Awesome job!

This thread is full of misinformation...but the above quote is by far the most accurate. Also...cardiovascular exercise is not only unnecessary for healthy fat loss...but has been proven to be detrimental to it. Can you do cardio and still lose fat? Yes...but its a vicious cycle...as you're also losing lean muscle with it.…

It definitely depends on context if it is offensive or not.

If you're fat, you're fat. What else do you say? Big? Obese?

My boyfriend and I are thinking about doing Warrior Dash too!!! I am going to do Run for Your Lives though! The 5k zombie run. I think when I reach my goal, I will celebrate by buying myself a bunch of new clothes.

I just started lifting at the beginning of last week. I love how it feels. I'm scared to let go of some cardio too! For the same reason, cause I feel like I wouldn't be burning calories to lose weight. I just make a circuit with all the equipment at the gym and lift heavy.

hml86- 8, you're a real pretty gal.

That's last week and this week. Yes, I've basically stayed on the elliptical. I know people say to switch up cardios but I switch up the resistance interval times.

No, I also run outside, and on the treadmill, just depends on if I can get to the gym. I LIKE to do the intervals on the eliptical though, so I try to do that more. On weekends I run outside, and I probably am on the treadmill 2 times a week, and 3 times a week elliptical. But I've been on spring break this week, so I have…

Such a great inspiration! Way to go!

I'm in!!! That was my goal anyway!
