My diary is still open, not sure why you were unable to see it gapwedge. Harris, Mifflin, Katch? I have no clue as to what those are or where to get stats from them. Before joining MFP I was going to the gym daily for at least an hr, usually more. I would do the classes (kickboxing, yoga, strength, etc) and two days a week…

I'm a day behind, on day 5. My video thought I needed to be on week 2 today. I almost didn't catch it. If there's a ton of pushups then I'm not looking forward to it. Pushups always hurt my wrists due to carpal tunnel. They are modified right?

Start weight: 161 Goal: 155 Measurements: Neck 14"; Bust 39 1/2"; Upper arm: 13"; Waist: 39 1/2"; Hip/butt: 43 1/2"; Thigh: 25"; Calf 16 1/2" (I'm hoping this doesn't go up like it usually does) ETA: I put the weight when I started the program. I have unfortanetly gained. :(

Steam fresh and puree/chop and add to spaghetti sauce. Use spaghetti squash for noodles and add broccoli, onions, etc. Use rutabaga or cauliflower instead of potatoes for mashed. Black bean cakes takes place of meat plus tastes great with just about any veggie. Mix up salads, add cabbage, cauliflower, etc.

I'm new to all of her videos. I did buy the 30ds though. Was waiting until Nov to start it. Any are fine with me as long as they can be viewed on youtube or are less than $15.

When 15 minutes into playing with my kids I had to stop because I was tired and out of breath.

Thanks for the tips. It's hard to unlearn what we've been taught. Particularly about fats and such. My husband will be thrilled when he finds out the low-fat is gone from our house. I drink protein shakes but usually make with water instead of milk and I add as much frozen (fresh that I've frozen) fruit as I can to avoid…

Since it's my first time doing this challenge, I'll set my goal for 50 miles. I know we can ALL meet our goals, as long as we try.

70 squats done

Alright. And squats are done.

40 squats done.

All meals are the same for myself and my family. My kiddos are 4, 8 and 10. If it's salad then we all eat salad. Kids need to eat just as healthy as adults do. So the same thing only a smaller portion for the kiddos. We all eat together and stay until everyone is done.

40 Squats done.

Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one! I've always had muscular calves. I don't think they will get leaner though. If you find a way please share with me.

Where's your blog? Mine is http://yupjustanotherblog.wordpress.com/ Just started it so it's pretty blank. Suggestions are always taken.

Day 2 - 30 squats.

If it doesn't have a chest band then that is probably the problem. I was considering getting one that was just a watch and asked on here for opinions about HRM's. After reading the responses I decided to get a Polar FT7, comes with a chest band and watch. I'm glad I did because now I know exactly how many calories I burn…

You could have pulled or torn a ligament in your foot. I'd see a Dr. to be sure.

Day 2 - done. 30 squats.

I live in a small town just south of SA, in Pleasanton. Add me if you wish. I'd like to start a group for us that live around SA for extra challenges, support and meetups.

Lesasass you are right. Those that are ready for a change try, those that aren't don't. I for one am ready for a change.

I agree completely. I write to them (haven't been using MFP long) to see why they haven't or to remind them to log on. I log daily, doesn't take long. Sometimes I log in the morning everything I plan to eat and do, which helps to stick to healthy stuff. Everyone is busy in one way or another, so some have to be reminded to…

I'm in. Squats are done. Feel free to add me.

Sorry you are feeling alone, you aren't. I've been struggling with my health and weight too. I trained for 6 months with a trainer two days a week but spent five days (1 hr ea day) in the gym and didn't lose anything. You have to find what works for you. It'll take some time to start losing weight because our bodies want…

I have tattoos. To me they should mean something to you. As an example my next tattoos will be 1 to represent my mom and her fight with cancer and 1 for my children.

Done and on the swiss ball!

Done! Big and small, front and side.

Challenge accepted

You need to eat the minimum calories a day for your body, otherwise you risk damage. You are hungry because you aren't getting enough nutrients. Only 2 fruits a day really isn't enough. Natural sugar isn't bad like processed is. Your body has to have sugar as that is what gives you energy and your body will find a way to…

Here's how it works in my house. What I cook for dinner is what you eat. If you don't like it you don't eat. But I do require that you eat at least one bite of everything on your plate. That goes for every kid and every adult, guests included. I have a picky eater so I know how that works. If it's just the taste/texture…
