Leslie Sansone's 5 Mega Mile Walk DVD is a good one to start with. It's basically marching in place with some other stuff added in to make it a bit more of a workout, and also incorporates light resistance training with a band while you're marching/walking, so that could get you started on your way to getting stronger…

I second this! Loooove Skinnytaste.com!

Hey there! That's awesome that you and your daughter are doing this together. It always helps to have a buddy. This is a great read for getting started: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1 Good luck to both of you!

Tried it years ago. The food is disgusting and doesn't accomplish anything more than MFP will, as others have said. Also WAAAY more expensive than just going grocery shopping!

Good job on your weight loss, OP.

Also, congrats on losing 70lbs, that's awesome!

If you've already done what the above poster suggested (with your settings), you could try adding 100 cals to your goal each week until you find a happy medium. It'll kind of be a guessing game to find your exact maintenance level, so you'll just have to play around with your calorie goal until you find that your weight…

Definitely painful! With DDD's even just working out in a sports bra that isn't supportive enough can be painful, or annoying in the very least. But jumping around with NO bra? Ouch ouch ouch. I have done yoga without a bra before, though. That didn't bother me too much, except when I was having to do downward dog & stuff…

Because of the boobies. Naked cardio = black eyes.

I was raised like this, too. My dad had me on the Atkins Diet in 7th grade. Definitely did not result in a healthy relationship with food, but I'm working on that.

You sure are spending a lot of time talking about a show you don't watch.

This is true. The 2 tablespoons I just ate of Jif Whipped Peanut Butter & Chocolate had more calories than the serving of ice cream I will eat later.

On the weekends, the only reason I work out is so I can drink wine. lol

Agreed. Give me the dang ice cream any day. Although I do actually like eating my bananas with peanut butter, but I don't do it as a substitute for ice cream lol.

I like the Edy's slow-churned 1/3 less fat ice cream. I eat it most nights as my dessert.

:\ Grotesque, though? Wow.

I LOVE Ashley Graham. And being a size 14 at a height of 5'9" or 5'10" is not the same as being size 14 at a height of 5'5" or something. I'm 5'11" and was a size 14 when I was younger, and my weight was just slightly above the high end of healthy BMI range. I played basketball and softball and was active every day, and…

Sounds like you've got the exercise part down, but might just need to tighten up your eating. Have you tried just straight-up calorie counting? I know you listed WW, hCG, etc, but if you haven't, try taking a shot at what MFP is designed for. If you like to snack at night, you can work that in to your daily calorie…

Interesting. And yep, gotta love capitalism.

The brand I buy from Walmart is 120 calories for 4oz.

I felt like that at first, also, especially being embarrassed about what I ate, but as long as you keep your diary private, no one will see that but you, so you have no reason to be embarrassed. You don't have to let anyone else see it, just like a private diary (Dear Diary style..). If you get comfortable sharing it with…

Welcome! There are some great, supportive people on here, and I'm sure you will find some like-minded people to interact with. For me, that has been one of the biggest factors - surrounding myself with people (even if it's just with "online" people) who have a similar goal - it helps so much to know that you're not alone…

I did Phentermine and absolutely do not recommend it. I don't know why your doctor would recommend Phentermine specifically for helping your PCOS symptoms - I've never heard of this - unless he just meant that by losing the weight, your symptoms will improve. But you can lose weight without the pill and without the…

Oh please. VLCD promotion running rampant and this is what you'd like to point out as being against the rules?

Why let misinformation (and bad grammar) run rampant when I have an opportunity to contribute to stopping it and allowing the other person an opportunity to LEARN? Kind of along the lines of "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" - although this isn't "evil" we're battling here,…

I'll believe you when you learn to use the proper form of the plural for "body." ETA* No.. actually even then, I still would not believe your or take you seriously.

I drink Diet Coke every day and have lost nearly 20lbs so far. Don't vilify my favorite drink ;)

I buy myself an awesome present every year, regardless of if I'm with someone or not, so for me it's not depressing at all :p

I'm not supportful, but have been know to be supportive on occasion...

Feel free to add me! I log daily, track EVERYTHING, my diary is open to my friends. I'm 5'11", have lost almost 20lbs so far, and looking to lose another 60.
