Try different things until you find something you like that you can stick with. I like my elliptical so I use it. I've tried different core training videos on Netflix and Hulu and found one I like. Today I started Bob Harper Kettlebell body shred and I liked it so I'll stick with that too. I also have Zumba, which while…

Santee (San Diego)

I bought it last week. I expect it in my mail tomorrow....

I have a Nook, but in any case, go to Amazon.com and use the search engine. Look for the freebies first!

I tried the kettlebell body shred today for the first time. I don't know how to log it but I liked it.

Like my brother's cats: Fergal, Llewelyn and Chester.....

I did the 30 minute Bob Harper kettlebell body shred. I'm still catching my breathe and I can feel my muscles shaking. Really good workout, hard, but doable. I really liked it!

How would you log this in?

Snack pack low calorie pudding. I love the caramel (80 calories) and the tapioca (100 calories). I also love the Quaker creme brule rice cakes. Too me they just taste decadent.

I started by logging every single thing I ate or drank. Big eye-opener for me. I starting really watching my portion size and I bought an elliptical. I've only lost 5 pounds so far but I've lost inches and I feel better.

You've made the first step by logging on to MFP! You can totally do this. First of all, be sure to log in everything you eat or drink - seeing the food diary will help you make better food choices. Consider getting one of those little elliptical machines that you can do seated. Its low impact and will help you start…

Log everything you eat or drink. That's the best way to see what's really going on with your food intake.

This! Four kids (the last at age 42). The belly needs to go and the bat wing thing. Blah!

I'd be hourglass if it wasn't for the apple shape.... :cry:

What would be your average calorie burn?

On baked potatoes, with berries, mixed with drained tuna and topped with lemon pepper, layed in lasagna, on cantaloupe, on crackers, use your imagination - the list is endles.

Gets rid of excess skin! Sounds great to me!

That's me too. I'm adjusting my whole exercise regime to see if that helps.

I will! I've been trying to find workouts (other than just the elliptical) that I can do that don't involve a bunch of jumping around. (Old gal, bad knee!)

Sounds like a good idea. I'm older, and really need to work on the arms - some days my shoulder joints feel like they're turning to stone! I thought this might help. I'm open to any advice!

I've kept my Facebook although I spend MUCH more time on here. Facebook helps keep my extensive family connected.

I track everyday. Even on a "cheat" day. It keeps me honest.

You can order one online fairly cheaply. But measure, measure, measure! Even if the scale doesn't show anything, the tape will.

Alone and loving it! :laugh:

I'm Jeanine and on here multiple times a day, everyday. Feel free to add me.

Happy Sunday to all! I weighed in this morning and nothing! I've lost the same five pounds twice in the past 45 days. Last week I changed up my calories and this week I'm starting the 30 day shred and Bob Harper kettlebell workout. Maybe changing up the exercise will help. Its frustrating but I'm keeping at it!.

Hulu has a bunch under Get Fit Stay Fit. I've done several and really liked them. There are a bunch on Netflix instant as well.

Oh my gosh can you write! I pictured every suit you described - I'm sure I've tried them all on. I finally went with a tankini; boy leg shorts, cups for the girls and covers the belly.

1. Elliptical 2. Scale 3. Zumba 4. 30 Day Shred I see a trend developing.:tongue:

Maybe this is a weird one, but I'm 56 years old. I've had the wrinkly, crepey looking, tortoise looking throat. I just notiiced this afternoon that its completely gone! Just smooth and no wrinkles! It apparently went with the fat! Now that makes me happy!!
