There is a free app for andriod phones called C25K Lite. If you use your phone to listen to music while you jog it will give you a buzzer noise to tell you when to switch from jogging to walking.

Here are some fitness apps that I haven't started using yet but will today!! They help you increase the amount of sit-ups, push-ups, squats, and pull-ups. They are all free and by Rittr Labs. It is similar to this website http://www.twohundredsitups.com/ but I think is made by someone different because this website has…

One of the most beneficial parts about this website is the community and support you get from others that are trying to achieve the same thing.... A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE CHANGE!!! Request as many friends as you can that you feel you could relate to and always remember this isn't a diet. Diets always seem to have a start and…

Definitely do something for your clothes. See how much it would cost for them to be tailored. I have never done this but could be a lot cheaper then buying new stuff. Buy some basics that fit great either on clearance, from a discount store, or just splurge on at least 1 great pair of jeans. Losing 25 pds is a great…

Check out your food diary. It will give you a good estimate. Then if you want you can shoot for staying under it.

Great Topic! I just started back this week and haven't written down specific goals for the month yet. So here we go.... -Stick to my calories each day. -Plan ahead for weekends and holidays... workout more for planned extra calories. -Give up soda completely (I am on day 5!) -Lose 10 pounds by my birthday (Dec. 5th) So far…

This site is amazing!! I have recommended it to so many people. The progress and life changes you'll make will beat out any of those crash diets, diet pills, or crazy trends. Just logging my food has been an eye-opener to how many calories are in everything. I am more aware of what I am eating and know how bad some foods…

Awesome job!

Awesome job!

Oatmeal has done amazing things for my weight loss goals. I microwave/eat it when I get to work and it keeps me full longer than anything else. When I do get up in time I will make a breakfast sandwich for myself: 2 slices of the 35 cal bread or the 100 calorie Bagel Thins All Whites - 100 % Liquid Egg Whites, 1/4 cup (56…

Wow! Way to go you look awesome!

If I don't plan ahead then I might go over. I fill it out for every meal and snack but don't click the complete button until the night of in case I need to adjust something if I grab something extra. I also plan the average amount of calories I'll burn so I eat those too.

I am 5'8 1/2 and weigh 188.5 (as of this morning :smile: ) I want to lose 20 pds by June 15 and then ideally get 155pds. I just got strict again with my diet so I am eating about 1200cal/day. My heaviest was 228pds about 1 1/2 yrs ago. Right now I go back and forth between a size 10 and a size 12 pants. I want to rock a…

I'll join ya!! I want to lose 20 pounds by June 15th. I'm going to Cancun, Mexico and want to where a swimsuit and feel cute in it. Losing 20 pds is an average of 2 pounds per week so it will be a challenge but I am ready for it!
-
Thanks for the reminder NeuroticVirgo!! I completely forgot about the Challenge. I did a small walk on Tuesday and have been going nonstop since working on finals for my masters. Hopefully I make it through the rest of day with enough energy to do at least a short walk tonight when I get home otherwise I might have to just…

Alright here I am! I'm going to try to stick with it this time!

Remember if you weigh in tomorrow that you might be holding water weight from all the sodium you had in the mexican food. It sometimes takes 2 days of me eating healthy and drinking lots of water to get back on track with my true weight.
-
I was recently in London. I ate what I wanted just made sure to not over-eat. I also drank quite a bit. I stuck with bacardi and diet cokes. I only gain 2-3 pounds in that week. (Most I think was water-weight because of the sodium intake) I lost it all plus more within a week of being back at home. Another key thing was I…

GO!! You will find new friends (fitness friends). And you'll love yourself for how you feel afterwards! I am the same way but sometimes we just have to step out on our own just once or twice and then we find things we never knew how much we loved!
-
I struggle with this too. But the key is to keep going even if you have to take breaks during it (I know she says you're not suppose to) but it is much better to get through it even if it takes twice as long. If you stick with it, it will get easier.
-
I completely agree. This is great for beginners! And it only cost $9 at Walmart.

I just found where they originally got this article from so I figured I better credit the source. Losing It With Jillian Michaels http://www.everydayhealth.com/break-the-cycle-of-emotional-eating.aspx?xid=nl_LosingItWithJillianMichaels_20110128

Someone mentioned that the option of "Are you bored?" should be added to the checklist.

Well basically I was working out with a trainer and I only lost about 5 pounds but my muscle increased and my fat decreased so I went down in pant size. My clothes were fitting so much better than if I had just lost the 5 pounds of fat without gaining at muscle. The muffin top almost disappeared completely!

I would like to see lists of peoples' workout playlist. A list of songs that last 30-60 mins would be great to see.
-
I did that for awhile. But I found that I was becoming unhappy because I didn't feel pretty or confident with how sloppy I was looking. I almost had more confidence when I was heavier because at least my clothes fit better. I finally said "Enough!" and went out and bought new clothes and threw out the old. It was so…

The morning after you use the bathroom is the most accurate. Your weight will change throughout the day due to what you eat and drink.

For breakfast I will have oatmeal (120 calories) or a breakfast sandwich. Breakfast sandwich: All Whites (like Egg beaters)- (microwave in a small saucer for about a minute) 2 slices 35 calorie Healthy life wheat bread (toasted) 1 slice American cheese Total: 170 Calories Drink hot tea (because it is winter:smile: ) or…
