  • You have some great losses in your waist and hips! Keep it up. The measurement of success doesn't end at the scale!

  • I know you're anxious to run, but what if you make it worse? then you are set back again. I say take it waaaaaaaaaaaay easy on the running. Maybe do intervals of light jogging with walking in between. Always stay safe! :flowerforyou:
    in Bad Idea? Comment by tameekag May 2013
  • Thank you for sharing. So often people get discouraged because they don't think the weight is coming off fast enough. Often times people base their expectations off the results of others (unrealistic). You have shown us that as long as we stay focused and never give up, the results will be there. Congratulations!
  • All of my workouts are at the gym - either bootcamp classes or personal training (1x a week). I workout 6 days a week and do a variety of exercises. Each workout includes lots of body weight movements like squats and pushups, TRX, exercise bands, stability ball, bosu ball, kettlebells and heavy weights. The bootcamps are…

  • Weight is up 1lb since last week. I will weigh again tomorrow at the gym to check body composition. Was it fat, water, muscle???? Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion. Either way, I'm stronger, my clothiers are looser and still I'm an overall fox! :blushing: Gonna be foxier soon! :laugh: The moral of this post is: don't…
  • I did all of my exercise but I didn't get all my water in and my food diary isn't quite up to date.
  • Hello and happy Saturday! I have 2hrs in the gym scheduled today, starting at 9am. After that its time for a manicure and pedicure. I hope everyone has a great day. Do something great for yourself!
  • I love 70's disco and classic rock. I also love "ghetto" rap music with a lot of beats (older stuff though...I'm not too fond of new rap). My gym does a class on Friday morning called "Bootylicious Fridays" and every song on the playlist is booty-related. It's fun!

  • sorry you're having a rough start. Take care of yourself and don't be discouraged. I saw some "how to cure shin splint" videos on youtube...you might find some good exercises or stretches to do that will help you recover faster.
  • Sure! Count me in if the plan is to support and motivate each other. If the plan is to complain about aging, I'm not interested. I'm 44
  • Yup - same here. My issue is pre-workout fuel. I have no appetite early in the morning. Do you eat anything before you workout?

  • I agree. I remember when you could just eat food and not worry about chemicals and cancer. Food is supposed to nourish us, not make us sick.
  • You look wonderful! Congratulations! I hope you feel proud! Keep up the hard work and commitment. Thank you for being courageous and generous enough to share your story!

  • I used to get bored at the gym because I did the SAME thing every day....walk over to an elliptical or treadmill and walk/run. Can you say SNORE? I was not motivated to do that. I would always have to force myself and I hated every single second of it. So, I joined a different gym and I now do bootcamp classes and zumba. I…
