it's so hard! i log it as circuit training OR wear a heart rate monitor watch and use that.

Thanks so much! I can't wait to try it, but was hesitant on spending the money to get hte Wii Fit too!

How is everyone doing on the Thanksgiving day challenge? We're halfway to Thanksgiving already! I haven't really lost any weight but I have been going to the gym a lot more and I feel better. I hope everyone is doing okay! :-) XxOo Week 1, 9/29: 204.6 Week 2, 10/6: 205.6 Week 3 10/13: 203 Week 4, 10/20: 203.8 Week 5,…

Hey everyone! I didn't lose any weight this week but am feeling great and am more motivated than ever. Yesterday was my birthday and I am glad it's over - no more cake, etc. I am motivated now and I believe I can do this!

Morning everyone! I weighed in today and FINALLY, I lost instead of gained! I have some hurdles ahead of me though: tomorrow is my last day of work, I am going away this weekend, and next week is my birthday though so I am a little worried about how I will stay on this. Hope everyone is doing alright! Week 1, 9/29: 204.6…

Thanks everyone! Glad you like it :-)

Thanks everyone! Btw, I am serious about losing weight! I NEVER fry stuff in oil, thats why I don't know how to measure it! I was experimenting with a holiday recipe for my food blog.

Morning! Welcome to WEEK 2 WEIGH IN! How did everyone do today? I did NOT do well. I have had a lot going on in my life and have been majorly stressed out, so I gained a pound. But on the upside, I have a job interview today and I went back to the gym for the first time in 6 months and am going to try to get back on track…

hey girl, don't give up! eating healthy is a lifestyle change, and losing weight doesn't happen over night. i am always up and down on the scale, but the only time we REALLY fail is when we don't try. i have also been going through a lot lately and it is really making it difficult for me to stay strict and on track. (I…

Okay, I will post in the other thread! I don' tknow how this works ... SORRY! I am new to this!

Wow great way to turn it around! Good for you! thanks for the motivation! :-)

I'd totally be up for doing a challenge. Any ideas for today? I have never been in a group either! Btw you look great! :-) But i totally understand wanting to be healthy and do it even better!

Yes, you can figure out the items manually by inputting them into the recipe section. Have you done this yet? Also, using a food scale helps me! If you are looking for some healthy recipes, i love myrecipes.com - it is the data base for Cooking Light magazine. I also LOVE Rocco Dispirito's books!

Erin, my birthday is in 3 weeks also! October 19th! I really want to weigh under 200 by then! GOOD LUCK! :-)

I would not recommend this. Cleanses aren't really healthy! In 2007, I did the master cleanse/lemonade diet or whatever it was called. I just got back from vacation and wanted to lose the weight I gained. So, I drank the lemon water with cayenne pepper and drank the Smooth Moves tea. Within two days, I was in the emergency…

Thanks for the help and advice everyone ! Okay, here are the 20LBS by Thanksgiving Rules that I have decided upon: The goal of this group is to lose weight and get healthy by Thanksgiving. I am calling it 20LBS by Thanksgiving, which is my ultimate goal, but if you can't lose this or want to set your own goal, that is okay…

Okay great, I am so happy everyone is so enthusiastic! Now - how do I have a group? LOL How do I start? What do I need to do? Diana

Hey everyone - I guess keep track of my posts and I will put up messages from time to time to check in on our progress? Or we can all introduce ourselves to each other? How does it work? LOL

that wasn't right for her to say. you don't have to be a vegan to enjoy vegan pizza or food, so what is she talking about? just let it roll right off your back! the thai chili honey sounds amazing!

Hello, I also work in an office and I don't care for lunchmeat. I usually bring salads. My favorite salad is mixed greens with white albacore tuna (from a single serving can or pouch), crumbled feta cheese, white beans or chickpeas, tomatoes, red peppers, and olives. For my dressing, I have olive oil and vinegar OR ken's…

Thanks SOOOOO much everyone! I feel alot better after reading all of these comments and listening to everyone's advice. This is a learning process for me and this REALLY helps!!! Thanks!!!! XXOO

wow, thanks for the outpour of support!!! It's so nice to know that other people go through this too. I am frustrated because i really did make an effort this week and i don't want to gain! but to answer some questions, my TOM is not coming - in fact, i just got over it. and i am NOT eating under 1200 calories, i set my…

I will!

don't worry, we've all been there. i used to eat there all the time and i just loved it. i thought the food was of a high quality and so delicious. i used to get the chicken salad sandwich with a side salad for lunch, or the skirt steak with mashed potatoes for dinner. both of these things are well over 2000 calories and…

I am very interested in hearing what other people have to say about this, because I have the same problem! Good luck to you! :-)

I just googled it too, thank you! :-)

wow that sounds absolutely amazing! what is a CSA farm? this def sounds like something i would be interested in. i am from PA and we usually go to farmer's markets when we can in the summer. but i am all about the farm to table movement and think it's great. there are SO many things you can do with swiss chard. my family…

hello, I can be your buddy! :-) I am 28 years old, from PA and i have about 60 lbs to lose. i've been on this site on since last fall but i haven't really lost any weight because i constantly overeat. (i LOVE food!) i have been making a concerted effort to get back on track though. i want to be healthy again and feel…
