Woohoo on your 8 lbs!!! Feel free to add me :)

My most happiest friend called me and while we needed to discuss something rather serious, talking to her made my day!

Hi! Add me, if you'd like.

Hi! It was like reading my own intro! I'm a 39 yo mom of 3 (18, 14, 15). My daughter just graduated high school and is in her first year of college. I'm a crafter too. I sit all day at work and then again when I craft so I am using my fitbit to help motivate me to move more. I'm low carbing it to try to lose 45-50…

Chicken! Cook enough to last a few days. You can change up the sides or the way you eat it.

I am ok staying in a general weight range but I went above and beyond that recently. When I started feeling physically uncomfortable....couldn't bend while seated, a general swollen feeling and having to barely squeeze into my pants...that is when I knew it was time to change.

Hi! Sending a request :)
-
Welcome!

Welcome back! I am back on the wagon also! Lost about 30 pounds a couples of years ago and just slid back into old habits. I'm on day 2 of trying again. My goal is to log daily, stay as low as I can with carbs and sugar and exercise 4-5 times a week. I'd love to have a feed full of positive people, add me if you'd like. 😊

Hi Ali! Add me if you'd like :)

Good for you for getting back to it! I'm a returning "newbie" as well. I've been yo-yoing for a few years and I'm ready to get the weight off once and for all.

I have found some great kettlebell workouts there. Also, bodyrocktv, I think it's called. They have some great at-home workouts.
-
I can't run on a treadmill. Literally. I can't seem to stay in a straight line, if I let go of the bar, I'll bust my butt :p

I am currently doing Insanity Max:30. But I have tried Insanity before as well. My one piece of advice is to modify if you are having trouble with something. Sometimes when I'm so tired and moves come up that I can't quite do, my first instinct is to just stop and catch my breath. But I feel so much better when I just move…

Hi! I did Day 2 today of PiYO. It is my first attempt at it and I am pretty excited to get started! Age: 35 CW: 201 GW: 180 (first goal) Biggest struggle: consistency, "all or nothing" attitude, and finding balance
-
I don't trail run as often as I'd like but love it when I do! It's exhilarating and being in the woods and in nature makes it such a great experience!
-
Ground flax seed. I add it to my peanut butter and oatmeal bars and also my shakes...works like a charm.
-
When I first quit...I would get home after work and realize I had cracked my window like I did when I smoked. I think that was one of my hardest things about quitting...if I'm not smoking, WHAT am I going to do!?! Now I don't know how I ever had time to smoke lol
-
I almost 5 years smoke-free. I do miss it...but I don't miss the coughing, sore lungs, stink and the hold it had on me. I was kind of underweight back then so I wasn't trying to kick the habit AND lose weight so physical activity was out of the question. But I don't think I could have done the things back then that I can…

I have great leg strength and little upper body strength. Used to, I couldn't do a single pushup and it was rough even on my knees. I can now do 2 good push ups and then I bring it down to my knees for the remainder. What about yoga? The different variations of planks seems like it would help build shoulder and arm…
-
I am very, very slow...like I could probably walk as fast as I run. But I am determined to get stronger and better at it.

F/34/5'5" 28 pounds in 5 months (was 30 but gained a few back). I am back on track and ready to lose another 30!
-
I usually have unsweetened tea with my lunch and then water the rest of the day.
-
I tired that program several times and it was a good workout, but I get bored easily. Fitnessblender.com has some great workouts and you can even find some on YouTube.
-
Anyone can add me as well.

I am trying to do this. I had a trainer a while back who told me to eat 6 times a day and have a carb and a protein at each meal. I didn't always nail it but I tried. Here's what a typical work day was for me: 7 am: atkins shake 10 am: oatfit oatmeal & boiled egg 1 pm: chicken salad 4 pm: banana & peanut butter 7 pm: meat…
-
I usually get a 6" turkey with 9 grain honey oat bread. I don't get any cheese and I get all of the veggies except tomatoes and jalapenos...add pepper and oil and vinegar. Yum!
-
Not me! My eggs come from my free range chickens and I savor every bite of it!

I am not new to c25k but I just started again. Yesterday I did Week 1 Day 1 and I had forgotten how much I enjoy running...and sweating. Since I am not new to running, I did not find it very challenging but it was a good ease back into running. I am looking forward to Day 2!
