My hips are still a bit sore so today is just eat under my calorie goal. Tomorrow I'll start back with a little light recumbant bike at the gym. Cardio without having to put all my weight on my angry legs.

Weight: 205 Height 5'7.5" Measurements: Neck-15.5" waist -43" (fattest part of my tummy-45.25" ) hips-44.75" r thigh- 25" l arm-15" bust-46" Meh, down one pound. I'll take it. I'm having huge issues with my hips right now, I can barely walk :( I guess I overdid it or was not as ready as I thought I was to run. I hope it…

Today's a quick meal day, it's gonna be chicken with lemon squeezed on it, raw broccoli, and anything else I can dig up in the vegetable crisper drawer. I love shrimp, it's one of my favorite foods. Just remember it doesn't take long at all to cook, and it gets rubbery if overcooked. Can't help with the low fat recipes,…

Today is gym day! I've been reading up on HIIT and am going to incorporate something into my routine today. I like the idea of the flat out running for 30 seconds then resting for 2 mins for a repetition of 5. Then I'll move over to weights. Today is arms, I might throw a little core work in depending on how exhausted I am…

Week one wasn't the greatest food-wise. It's tough to make the right food choices at restaurants and if clients want to take you to dinner it's bad form to say no. Even the salads are out to get you at some of these places. Exercise wise it was OK. Managed to get some decent cardio in and made it to the gym for weights a…

Week 2! Weight: 206 (no change) Height 5'7.5" Measurements: Neck-15.5" (down 1/2") waist -43"{down 1"] (fattest part of my tummy-45.25" [down .75"]) hips-44.75" (down .25") r thigh- 25" (down .75") l arm-15" (down .5") bust-46" (same) I'm loving the fact that I can see the weight loss in my face! Just a little change but…

Today is cloudy and cool so it was a great day to do my 3 mile walk! I was able to run for about 1/4 mile total before my knees and ankles started calling me nasty names. Little by little I WILL be able to run again.

It depends. This week has been the cheesy pop week so it's been James-Greatest Hits and Deee-Lite-World Clique. As I work my way up to a faster pace I am going to need to find faster music.

My weigh in days are Sunday mornings after waking up. Butt nekkid, bebeh.

Today is light cardio, probably 30 mins on the recumbent bike, followed by my arm routine. I hope I can get that gardening in today that I missed yesterday. My yard is a mess!

I got most of my commitment done. The 4 mile walk happened, the yardwork didn't. That's the joy of working from home I guess. People assume that you're always AT work because you're always home. It's not unusual for a client to say "Sorry I forgot to tell you last week but I need this by Monday..." on a Sunday afternoon.…

Can I be both? I love going to the gym and working out, I also love eating!

Today is absolutely lovely, gonna go for a 4 mile walk and get some gardening in.

Heeeeere we go! I think I must have lost a lot of water weight before this started. I was at 217 last week and my scale has not budged an inch on the floor. I will measure first thing in the morning after waking up. Weight: 206 Height 5'7.5" (that'd be awesome if that changed, lol.) Measurements: Neck-16" waist -44"…

So excited! Does anyone use Wii Fit here? I was just wondering how accurate the scale is.

Mid 30s checking in, sent you a request!

Go see a doctor! It could be anything from diet to high blood pressure to something else entirely. This isn't a diagnosis, just something to ask about. I have TMJ and I tend to clench my jaw as I run/work out and it can give me nasty headaches if I'm not mindful.

I love this thread so much. Here are my three, separate photos because trying to get them all in the same room at the same time is like herding cats....literally. This is Priscilla, commonly referred to as Pissy due to an unfortunate realization that I have trouble with the combination of the letters "pr". She's 15 this…

I love the Little Willie one! jlapey, how many times do your guests jump out of their skins? The giraffe is adorable!

Good stuff in this article! Someone told me the best way to start is to ignore the center of the supermarket. Makes sense, the produce, dairy, and meat are all along the outside of the store and it helps to avoid the prepackaged foods. It's an easy way to remember and keep it in check.

Georgia here, too! North metro ATL for me.

Hypothetical questions are so hard to answer truthfully, we tend to lie to ourselves because we think we'd always do what's right. I'd say that sure I'd turn in a family member/friend because that's what I would consider to be the right course of action. Without the stress and pressure of the situation actually weighing…

MINION! That's a cool mug.

That's a work of art, that is. <3

Suburbs of Atlanta, GA. I see other ATL people on here, wonder if they check the forums. It'd be awesome to find a workout buddy!

I'm eating pretty well today, the sugar's a bit high because I drink tea with sugar. Mood's pretty good, I work at home and hit a creative roadblock so went to the gym to work it out. Felt better after that. Today's exercise plan was to hit the gym and give my legs a light workout and focus on my upper body.

Great idea! Pics are sent.

Aww I wish I'd seen this before I went to the gym! I did accomplish my daily goal. Today was active recovery so 30 mins cardio at a light pace and 5 sets of 5 reps on the machines focusing on upper body. I used whatever weight was most comfortable.

I like this game, so many cool mugs! This one's mine.

I'm in! Friend request sent.
