my co-workers talking about food.

I was wondering about a walking video. It is walking in place but adds some zumba and cardio kickboxing. It says that it is the equivalent of walking 4 miles. Does this count as walking??

My legs have some muscle and are getting a good shape!!

I have some and it's great. Just be sure to keep it oiled, it can get squeeky and that will bother your co-workers. The problem I had was I had headphones in and didn't realize it was squeeking until I was informed by my neighbor. lol

I'm from Austin, Texas!!

Hello everyone, My name is Christine from Austin Texas. I have been walking lately at home with a workout video. I am up to 4 miles so I will do my best to meet our goal. I am very excited to continue my weight loss journey with this new group. I am hoping to lose an additional 40-50 pounds by next March, planning a trip…

Hello everyone, My name is Christine. I am 44 years young!! I started using MFP early this year (January or February) but really "started" using MFP in March. I was amazed to see just how many calories I was acutally taking in at first. I had no idea! I have since lost around 30 pounds and I have hit a plateau. My goal is…

Fitness test done mile walk. 14 minutes crunches 40 pushups 22 plank 40 seconds I have not done my usual workouts the last couple of weeks. I was disappointed with my plank time. I had been up to over a minute! But I'm getting back on track now that's the important part.

I did not complete any of last week challenges due to a couple of family emergencies. I will complete the fit test tonight. I'm curious to see how much I've improved. new weight 196.0

lol I had the same thoughts. I am gonna start a new thread. let's see if anyone bites.

I'm in. Although I hate burpees I have to do something to kick start my plateau.

I am ready. I do need the challenges and to be held accountable to be motiviated. I want to lose all this weight!! Let's do this!!

I have zumba for the xbox and I love it. I haven't gotten the courage to go to an actual class yet but I will soon.

I have always been a smart ash with a big ash.

I am no expert but I don't think you have been eating enough. If you are not eating back some of the calories that you work off exercising your body stores the calories you do eat because it thinks you are starving. Increasing your calorie intake should help. But don't give up!! Keep trying!! I know I am currenly in a…

I would not comment on soemone elses food diary. The days that I eat bad, I already know I eat bad. I just pick myself up and move on to the next day and try to do better. We all have our bad days.
