I wish i could find her name but yesterday i saw this lady on instagram who was 46 and overweight turn herself into someone who does body building competitions at 50+ it can be done!!

I was about 220 and extremely out of shape when i started my weight loss journey and i did 30 day shred that was posted on youtube. I think its a great beginner workout but you obviously have to pace yourself and not try to catch up. You will see an improvement.

yes.

My nutritionist put me on a vegan diet although she didnt call it that for 2 weeks and i did feel great but it was hard to sustain. I really do try to limit my animal products.

Agreed. I think you are just going to confuse yourself. I for one do something similar to rawtill4 when i go over board on some days. It just helps get back on track.

I started at 5'5 215 lbs. I started with 30 day shred and then i moved on to popsugar fitness videos on youtube which has a great variety an it was free! When i felt a little better I started doing beach body workouts. Id definitely check youtube for work outs.

Ive been having a hard time sleeping the last few months and I noticed when I decided to eat fruits and veggies throughout the day and have like a carb/protein at night that my anxiety levels went down enough that I went to sleep normally. Idk if its true or not but Ill go with that.

I log my bad days too and ive had like 2 of them this week and Im on tdee but im still under for the week so im not too disappointed in myself.

Sometimes ill have two slices of ezekiel cinnamon bread with butter. Yes butter. I measure it all out and it fits my caloric intake for the day. Its like 280 calories. If bread is a trigger food than i guess it makes sense to worry about it. I have other foods I avoid but bread isnt one of them.

same. i never had that problem.

5'5 175 and wore my heart rate monitor and it said i burned 660 cals.

Yep its pretty accurate but you have to add like a food code to get the nutritional value from this guide it came with. I honestly dont even bother because im lazy and it seems like too much work. I measure my food and then log on here.

I use it every day like 4 or 5 times a day. I got mine for Christmas over a year ago and changed the battery once . I have this one: http://www.techfresh.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Perfect-Portions-Digital-Food-Scale.jpg

amazing!! <3

Im doing the free 30 day and so far I like it because I can do turbo fire and brazilian butt lift. Im having trouble using it on anything other than internet explorer. Id give it a try just for the free 30 days.

Im also using Jefit dumbbell home work out. I use my HRM and I log it sometimes.

Its definitely a mental thing. I have a hard time seeing that I have X amount of calories left in the day. I feel like i HAVE to eat them. Yesterday was one of those days and i basically just ignored my cravings and they actually went away. I normally look at my weekly intake and i normally am under so im not doing so bad.

If you are comfortable at that weight than why not? Im 5'5 and 175 ans my goal is 165. When i get to 165 i will see how i feel.

Anyone can add me as well. My friends list is dead!

Nay for me because it just doesnt sit well with my stomach. I normally go for mint tea.

Im getting back into exercise and ive been doing the 10 minute workouts from popsugar fitness on youtube. They have different types of workouts. With and without weights.

Some of these are interesting. I definitely relate to having people notice me more like i never even existed! My first "a-ha" moment was when i realized I could wrap a towel around my body! Its the little things. lol

You follow the meal plan and you exercise for 30 minutes a day. I bought it and I like the recipes but its basically just as simple as eating clean and working out for 30 minutes doing what you like.

Seriously just tired of struggling to get out of a car or tying my shoelaces!

Super interesting. My partner who has no weight issues basically does this naturally. He has a coffee or tea in the morning and doesnt eat until we have dinner at night. I might have to join him!

want more friends!

I weigh everything when im at home. When I eat out i try my best to eyeball it.

I was squeezing into 14s, i probably was a 16 and ive lost about 40lbs and im now a comfortable 12 so maybe you were wearing the wrong size.

I did because it really helped me see how many calories I burned during regular work day vs lounging around. I adjusted my calories accordingly.
