I want to be at my goal weight! Then the sky is the limit for gifts!

I can run with a pretty high resistance on the eliptical for over 45 minutes, but I can only run up a short hill outside before panting and slowing down. I can do a 5K in 35 minutes and I think I would need to run about 3 times as long on the eliptical to get the same physical results. I am no expert I am just giving you…

Being able to breath and work harder kept the additional weight loss away. You will find out quickly how much extra time not smoking gives you and new fun things to do with that time! If you smoke at work, make sure that you still take your breaks and sneak an extra 120 calorie burning walk in instead!

Well not all sunshine and rainbows in my house! My husband at 70+ pounds overweight and the heaviest he has ever been, is not supportive in the least. He tried to be when I stood up and spoke out months ago. Now he guilts me when I don't eat what he's eating, when I buy healthier versions of foods he whines and complains.…

Not sure if I can get through the 30ds right now but I need to try something so I am in! I have made it through all 30 days in the past and loved the results. I injured my knee a month ago and it just won't seem to get better! I will take pictures tonight and start with day one in the morning. I never did more than 5 days…

I am trying to find a copy of the videos, if I find one I plan to start on Monday. I am not positive on the program, but I plan on incorporating it with my running regime.

bump to review later, sounds like a similar problem to mine!

230lbs 210lbs 195lbs I can not get that middle one to resize.... sorry!!

Nice work! I will share if I have a chance to take some photos tonight! I haven't taken any since I was around 210 and I am around 195 now! I am 5'11" and started at 236. Send me a request if your looking for friends!

Amazing a complete transformation and proof that it can be done! I will be sharing this story with all my boy pals!

I have a Schnauzer Poodle who is crazy smart, too smart most of the time for his own good. He just started doing this a few months ago. When anyone sits on the couch and crosses their leg over or has the foot rest up and if you move your foot, he comes from anywhere in the house and sits under your foot so you are…

I did kickboxing 30ds and ripped 30 and I do get board easily so I switch up often. You will definitely get results, push yourself!

Regardless of what scale just stick to one! The scale at the gym and doctor are different than mine, I just always use mine to justify the real weigh in. I started at 236 and got great results from the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. It is hard but you can do it and you will feel so much better once you have done it! I did…

I like mine with a little sea salt and garlic. I tried brown sugar once and it was ok, but I don't like the sweetness. I also tried a parm cheese and egg, it was a strange coating.... Tons of recipes online though, if you google it you are bound to see an easy fixer upper recipe!

Wow my goal is around 175 and I'm 5'11" my smallest size was 170 and size 10.

1200 isn't too low if you have a LOT to lose, eat your exercise calories back and see how it goes. I lost 38 of my 65 goal and now am increasing since I don't have a LOT to lose anymore.

Wow! Amazing ! Way to go!

They have their time and place, and those who find the time and place will reap the rewards!

At 240lbs I was a full D at 199 I am a full C I think they were saggy before but really nice and perky now. They kinda look bigger because my stomach doesn't hang out further then them anymore! When you loose weight you are left with the breasts you are supposed to have, your mammary glands stay the size their supposed to…

Wow! Great information thank you for your input! Everyone does it a little different but I think I get the short story. I will give it 4-6 weeks and see where I am. I am a lot happier with my overall health now so losing isn't the primary goal, but I definately want the scale to start moving again!

Anyone have a say??? I thought pro's and con's would be flying!

You can always donate them, there is a donate column instead of a cookie selection. I am a leader and have 2 girl scouts so I appreciate what cookie sales do for the girls. Everything in moderation right? I plan on enjoying my girl scout cookies just not an entire box at a time like I have done every other year!

<<<ex smoker 13 months strong!!! Mom and overweight! The best part of logging is really seeing what food is 'made' of. I have eaten things my entire life and never looked at what it did or didnt do for my body. I see food different now....it's been solid logging since September! I did get a scale to help me with ounces of…

Nothing but love for this post! Good luck to you, keep your humor and chin up! I did level 1 for 13 days my first time. I didn't think I was 'ready' to move on. Then I did level 2 and I found out nothing I did or could have done would have got me 'ready'. But I fought through it and you will too! It's a real biotch but if…

You can eat anything and be under 700 calories, just don't eat as much of the bad stuff and load up on the good! Skip the butter, white bread, add the protein and veggies!

There are atleast 20 other threads with success photos on it, you should do a search, they are worth looking at! And definately take your own pictures, I didn't last time but did this time and it helps to push really hard knowing that I will "see" better results at the end.

Wait to see how you feel tomorrow....I didn't feel to bad initially but the next day was rough, I pushed through that and did day 2 the very next day and then just got stronger each time, was able to go deaper in the movements, and increase my weights too.

Someday.....

Great job and thank you for sharing, it really is the success stories that keep so many of us going!

I am 5'11" and started 236 down to 196 I have progress pics on my profile pic, kinda hard to see but you can see the general loss I was a size 18. I started 9/6 and lost 10 pounds a month for the first 3 months, now slowed a little as I am really toning up. My original goal was 175 but I will re-evaluate at 185, I want to…
