I think I wore the chest strap a little too tight last night, but didn't even realize it was on

I just bought mine off of Amazon, it was $41 I think, it is called a timez personal tainer. I used it for the furst time this am working out and love it. I burned more calores than I thought I had in a 30 min work out. 22 of that was Jillian Michaels. It tells you how to set your lowest and highest heart rate, and you…

Congratulations!!!! If you would like to add me feel free. I lve this site and all my friends I have gained on here

Me too! I love this site, and actually am excted to get on and see what everyone is up to!!!! While I won't delete my facebook, it has its advantages. But I spend more time here than anywhere online

I saw that on the news the other day, and honestly it is on rare occasions that I can even finish a grande, even more rare to finish my venti. Who in their right mind could drink 4 cups of coffee?!?!?!?!?

Kan and Claire having friends on here is the best way to be motivated. I am a 911 dispatcher in a small county, its generally pretty quiet, however someone still has to be here all the time, I found myself being bored all the time.. So one i started bringing homework to work to do it, and two started working out. Not only…

Eric, thank you for posting this, I have told myself these things many of times, and must say with the dog living in an apartment I am forced to walk him no matter the weather. I actually plan on printing this out and putting it up on my mirror to read evreryday to remind myself the importance and how easy it is to stay…

Hi Mandy nice to meet you. I find the support here beyond great. I joined in early December and couldn't stick with it, and then afte the holidays I realized I must do something, so I sat down set up my profile and began. I wanted to change, make a better me and feel better about myself. I have found everyone of my friends…

I would love to add you as a friend!

Hi Randi, Nice to meet you. I am always looking to add more friends. I am currently struggling with my calorie intake as well and while I enjoy working out I find that I have to raelly push myself to do it. Once I'm over half way through I am glad I did it, and do do it every day, I find it hard to get there. I love the…

Yes I count my walking as exercise, not so much walking arund the office, but I walk the dog for at least 30 minutes.

This site is great! good luck and feel free to add me if you'd like

Fae, First I want to tell you keep at it. I found my self unexpectantly single 7 months ago, and haivng to start over, I never cooked for myself and was always hitting taco bell on the way home. I unfortunately saw the pounds add up fast. I began cooking on my days off and freezing the extras, and then I have a wide…

That is the way I am understanding it, you have to eat back what you burn off. So if you burn 600 calories, like I did today, you have to eat 600 calories too. And honestly that leaves me sitting here going...um **** what do i eat? I'm not hungry and don't want to eat junk to get my calories back....If i am wrong please…

I am in! I'd love to try.

I am in! I'd love to try.

Great attitude. I have made the same decsion its time for a change. I am with you

Have you tried Jillian Michaels at all? Other than my knee hurting (and that is because it is weak) It is great. I do her 30 day shred and there is a ton of cardio in there.

Congrats!!!!! keep it up

Are you drinking enough water? And are you eating at least the 1200 calories a day?

This very much does sound like what's going on. I will try this, I don't want to mess it up further, but don't want to stop working out either. Thank you.

I do journal, I find it very helpful to me, I do it on the blog through here on my page, and personally i don't care if anyone reads them or not. I find it relaxing and sometimes it is nice to get some feedback on my feelings. I would do it, if you think it will help. I use writing a lot to get me through rough patches. I…

I'm happy to say I am glad i am not the only one who feels this way! It feels so great being on here because I feel like so many people care about what i am doing and they are there behind me cheering me on or telling me to stay strong.

Hi, keep going strong, you are doing great. If you'd like to add me for motivation I am glad to motivate.

Hello to both of you! I have been doing this for almost 2 weeks and have lost 5 pounds I love this site. If you'd like feel free to add me

I understand that weightloss alone is difficult. My best friend talked me into joining here, because for me newly living single made it very difficult to care or do anything about my weight. I love it on here, and feel so excited to be on here everyday! I like it better than my facebook... Good Luck on your weight loss and…

I work an odd schedule as a 911 dispatcher, I rotate schedules every three months, and on my days off I go back to a normal sleeping schedule on my days off. Because things are so hectic for me I figure the best way to stay consistent with my calories is to start at midnight, and end at midnight. I find this is the best…

I think there is. I actually have purchased a heart rate monitor (HRM) with a calorie counter on it. I thought that I would try it out with one of the work out machines I use to see how accurate it is, I read many reviews saying it was. I know that I did the eliptical the other day for 30 minutes, it was a low impact, and…

Hello, and welcome to the site. I have to say I have gained a lot of support from my friends on here and am so glad I joined. I can certainly empathize with you on the full time student and full time job, I did that for years! good luck and feel free to add me as a friend if you would like
