Add me! I have 100 pounds to lose. I need friends, lol.

My reasons: 1) I'm tired of shopping for clothes in the "women's" or "plus-size" section. It's a new (and annoying) experience for me and I want out. 2) I'd like to maybe enjoy the beach again. 3) And finally I want to stop hiding behind people in photos.

Count me in!

I'm 2 days late, but I'm in too!!

I've tried every low carb diet there is. Now I just count calories and do to the gym 4 days a week and I've lost 13 pounds (in 3 weeks). I think for many people the HFLC way of eating works, but so do diets like Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig that don't restrict carbs so much. I'm going to continue eating what I want as…

I'm bringing back this thread, lol. On October 1st it will be 9 months ago that I quit smoking. My last cig was on Dec 31, 2012. I just woke up on New Year's Day and figured it was as good a time as any to quit. 100% cold turkey and I've never looked back. The first 2-3 months was hard. The social aspect most of all. But I…

Hi, I'm back too. After months of neglect, I'm back at the gym and counting calories (which I find fun). My start date was 3 weeks ago (Sep 12) and I've lost 13 pounds so far. Just to re-introduce - I'm Angela and I'm 44 years old. I live in NYC with dh and 3 kids.

I'm in! I started going to the gym (again) on the 12th of September. I do 40 minutes of cardio and 1 hour of strength training 4-5x a week (alternating upper and lower body). I also changed my hflc way of eating to just counting calories (but eating healthy, whole foods while still somewhat watching carbs). I'm trying to…

Monday: (Workout "A") 30 minutes of cardio (elliptical & treadmill), then machines for back, biceps, hamstrings, & abs Wednesday: (Workout "B") 30 minutes of cardio (elliptical & treadmill), then machines for chest, triceps, quads, & abs Friday: (Workout "A") Same as Monday Then the following week I do BAB I'm still new at…

My son also will be 12 in March. He goes to the gym with me already - 3x a week. My 19 y/o dd had a membership with me but our schedules hardly ever allowed us to go together. I went to cancel altogether when I was told I could change the other person I come with (I get a corporate membership discount for 2). Since i…

Oooh, can I play too? SW: 221 CW: 217.6 GW: 216 Weigh in Dates: 1/1 221 1/8 217.6 1/15 1/22 1/31 Total weight lost:

Today is 7 days completely smoke-free for me. I ca't believe it. I smoked 10 cigs a day for 29 years and never wanted to even try quitting. I didn't even plan to quit for New Years - I just woke up and figured I'd give it a shot (and because my son really wanted me to quit). I don't feel like a "non-smoker" yet. I'm so…

I made it to day 4. It's been 96 hours since my last cig. omg.

I had my last cig on New Year's Eve. This is day 3 and so far, so good. Cold turkey was the only way to do it for me. I have been smoking a half a pack a day for 29 years. Good luck to all of us!

The main one is that I quit smoking (3 days now) I signed my 11 y/o son up for the gym and now we go together I started tracking my food (which is really eye-opening. I should be eating half of what's usually on my plate, lol)

Ok. Starting weight as of 1/1/13 is 221. I'm trying a high protein/low carb Mediterranean diet along with at least 3x/week at the gym. I'm excited to get started.

I plan on going at around 10am.
