I hope on my elliptical and earn some calories to cover me for dinner - If you don't have elliptical walk around the block - Look up youtube videos of zumba or 30 day shred and do a session - Anything to get yourself moving to earn enough calories for dinner.

That is awesome sounds like me right now

I started off having cheat days Then I switched to cheat meals And now if I want to have a cheat meal or day I earn the calories by working out for them I feel better knowing that I have earned my fave foods

I was wondering the same thing about that area and I am assuming your referring to the pooch under your belly button

TO be honest I don't even know what size pants i am because after i grew out of 24 i stopped buying pants unless they had elastic waist lol So I have no clue what size I am - I bought a size 24 at walmart a few years ago and they been sitting in my closet since then because they dont fit so that is my first yay goal

Thanks

To be honest I have known for several years now that the only way I was going to lose weight is to make eating healthy and working out an obsession as that is what I did when I quit smoking and quit drinking soda I had to become obsessed with not wanting to do it - I need the addiction of losing weight to make this work…

I really don't know anything about a HRM would love to get one so I count enter truly accurate counts

I woulda rather done like hour in morning hour in evening but was not sure what i was going to eat and my day was longer then planned so all at the end of the day it was LOL

GREAT JOB! Let me tell you my feet are sore LOL

I burned 2198 calories in 2 hours - Keep in mind everyones body is different depending on height weight and age What I burn in a hour on the elliptical or a hour of zumba is twice that of what my friend burns but she is also half my size I plugged in my calories based on what Myfitnesspal estimates for me - I also realize…

I do it for 1 hour a day and I am also about to kick it up a notch I make sure that I eat all my calories alloted to me from MFP which is 1370 then I make sure to eat back at least 1/2 of my workout calories

I got one for free and did not care for it at all

I have always been told if its part of something you do every day don't count it as you already figure that in when you say ok well my lifestyle is sedentary or what ever .... If your body is used to you walking around a store stocking shelves then that really does not count as exercise however if your job is generally a…

I can understand why you guys think 5-6 days is not stuck and i dont mean it as stuck as in i been doing it for months and months and not lost a pound And yes I know 5-6 days is not very long HOWEVER - 5-6 days for me I expect to be able to drop from 0 to 9 - I have ALOT of weight to lose so right now in this phase 5-6…

If you need help filling your calories at the end of the day consider adding a glass or two of full fat milk to make up for the extra calories

You know you can still eat your mac and enjoy it just the way you like to prepare it just eat it in moderation Assuming you make it fresh and bake it so instead of making a big ol pan of it make a smaller pan of it and enjoy it over a few days and heck if its because you like to eat more of it just add some good cardio…

The diabetic dinner plate my friend has shows half the plate with veggies quarter plate protein and quarter plate carb

Try an Aldi's Also for fresh fruit and veggies check your local farmer markets or I know if you have flea market they have veggie people there and they generally offer way cheaper prices and if your buying a bunch you can probally talk them into a discount.

Would love to take the hubby on a honeymoon as we never did have one

Everyone person's body is different My husband does eat breakfast and its a must have for him Me on the other hand if I do not exercise for the day I do not eat breakfast because it makes my day worse and i find myself extremely hungry - Now if I exercise I have to breakfast because I have to eat extra calories so i stick…

What you should do is buy a kitchen scale and weigh everything out You can get them for around $10 at walmart Because honestly you can pack in a cup a flour by smashing it down or you can loosely scoop the flour in and even though they are in the same cup the flour packed tightly in is more flour then the flour loosely…

I have to say I used to call them cheat days and i generally would go over about 2k in calories Now more recently what I have found to be even better is rather then having cheat days as others call them cheat meals -- So for example ok so tonight i know i am gonna have tacos so since i know my taco meal runs me about 1445…

I have 3 lb weights since I normally don't use free weights I decided to start small and figured its better then having weights that are to big

That is a wonderful idea I think I will try the 30ds and use that as an alternate to jumping jacks

I would like to do it I started it but I cant do jumping jacks because of the ladies being to big and it hurts

bump

I know what you mean about the bug I have it

I am 44DDD and was just coming to research this problem because I was going to do the 30 day shred and hurt like crazy after trying to do the first set of jumping jacks and as you said holding them with one arm does not work so i ended up quitting it because it seriously made my boobs hurt

I say empty your bladder as much as you can and just wear a pad this way it soaks up anything that my spill out and if your bladder is empty to begin with it wont be very much enough that a pad will cover it
