Bump. I'm interested in any replies as my doctor only quickly mentioned noticing it In my last visit. ::frown:

I have one and I LOVE it! It syncs with my phone, so I can see my numbers as I go. It's a great motivator. Sometimes I do have trouble with the bluetooth syncing (maybe once every couple of weeks), but that may be due to my cell phone service provider. They do have a wonderful tech. support team if you get stuck. I also…

You try to order a salad with no onions at your bank's drive-through window.

May be called spaghetti noodles?

My favorite is shoulder roast, carrots, onions, celery and red potatoes with skin (light on the potatoes) along with a roast seasoning pack and a couple of cups of water, depending on the size of the roast. Another is white chili. The seasoning packet has the recipe on the back... it contains chicken, northern beans, etc.…

Bump! :)

This is second hand advice because I'm having a similar problem. I have a friend that is nearing the end of her weightloss journey after losing 80 pounds. She told me to monitor my sodium intake and drink plenty of water. I checked out some of the sodium levels on those frozen low calorie/low fat lunches I've been eating…

bump. Anyone tried it?

I also have problems with my heart rate... even at rest. It gets much worse when I exercise or get nervous. I have a leaky heart valve and possibly pulminary hypertension. My cardiologist said it was fine for me to excercise, but to start out very slowly... and to try to relax. Ofcourse if I "knew how to relax" I wouldn't…

Just keep in mind it takes a 3,500 calorie deficit to lose a pound. So, while this slip up may delay that 1lb departure by a day or so, it will be forgotten as soon as the scale changes :happy: Just look at it this way: If you went 1,200 (or however many) calories over, just do a few extra minutes of cardio everyday for…

Wow! You're such an inspiration! We're similar sizes (my pic is an old one- to remind me of what I once was and can be again). I'm 5'5 and around 198 now... in that picture I was around 145 and I was afraid my tummy and arms would never be the same again. But after seeing your pics I know it's possible! If you don't mind…

Haha! Me too!

Thank-you!

SO HAPPY I found this! I did Day 1 just to see how I could handle it... I could really use some encouragement from somebody on my same level, so this is great :)

Yay! That's what I needed to hear, LOL! Congratulations :) Thanks for the encouragement.

Thanks! I'll try increasing the incline. I have great shoes. I had my arch measured at the shoe store and bought a pair of Brooks. I love them.

The woman who gets on the treadmill next to you and changes the television set from music videos to THE FOOD NETWORK!!! Seriously? Who does that?! Not to mention there are 5 other television sets not being watched.

I'm in the same situation, but I also have a 12 week old infant!!! I get up early on my days off while the baby is asleep and go to the gym. Otherwise, my weekends get filled with other social obligations- I get up early to make sure I have time for ME. During the week I pack a healthy lunch to work and close my door at…
