Look at the positive you got in a walk. May I ask why you needed to stretch your legs. I ask because I was recently in a car accident and damaged my left hip, leg and sciatic nerve in my back. I am still on light duty at work and just met with the physical therapist today. I tried walking yesterday at a leisurely pace and…

good Morning. I didn't update yesterday but I will now. I was on the ball field most of the day yesterday but I was able to get in a 25 minute walk between games. I paid attention to my body and when my leg began to hurt I stopped. I felt it a little last night but glad for the workout. After all my leg won't get better if…

Welcome to the group. As was stated earlier it's nice to set a goal. Just having this exercise goal for me is helping. Can I ask what all you do to eat clean. I have got to get lower on my fat, carbs and sugars.

Awesome job.

Today I got in a quick 25 minute walk while at the baseball fields. Not alot but I burned about 200 calories and listened to my body. When my leg began to ache I stopped.

Welcome. I said a hunted day challenge but as I think I mentioned mine is 97 days because that is my birthday. The challenge is easy. 100 (or the amount you choose) of some sort of physical activity. Start small and increase. That is my plan.

Excellent job. Sometimes work and family get in the way tha ts when you just have to do what you can.

So I'm a little late posting for Saturday. My success yesterday was doing laps in the pool . It's been sooo long. I was slower than I remember but I did it.

Thanks for the info about me to. It is what I am concerned with but I would like to get there as well. May be I'll try low carbacarb for.now.

I burned 747 calories doing 45 minutes of water activities (laps and weights). This is day 96 I guess I am counting down or day 2 if u count up. How about you all

Okay so I had to start slow and it took a while due to my leg injury but I got in 10k steps, 10 flights of stairs 14 active hours and burned 3000 calories. Although I don't think the calories are as accurate.

Friday check in: I started off pretty good today. I decided last night my best bet is to make daily goals I can meet. Today its to get in 10k steps, drink at least 8 glasses of water and stay under my calories. I am not going to worry today about fat and carbs. I do have a question though. I am thinking of doing Keto or…

Nice job. My goal today is 10,000 steps. I may get to the gym but not sure so 10k steps it is. I will post with the results.

Would like to add I u as a friend since I have 100lbs to lose as well but not sure how.

SO I am new to this site but I think it may be very helpful. I see Thursdays are "fess up" days so I am going to say that I have fallen off the wagon. Well haven't really started. Just Struggling. My positive is that I know with some hard work I can do this and I know all of you can as well. There is always a way.

Id love to be friends as well. I am just starting out on this journey and have a lot to lose but I am looking for both new people to start with and people who have been successful. I am really struggling. I also have PCOS and as far as I know it is under control as well. Add me if you would like. I am not sure how to…

I think this is a great challenge. I just met with a nutritionist last week and am having a real hard time getting started but I think the idea of 1lb a week is doable. Do you mind if I join you in this challenge

I have the same issue. I have always been an emotional and bored water. However when I keep myself busy I don't plan meals. I feel like a lose lose situation.

I should give this up as this is a huge down fall for me, but lately I have been into Burger King and I don't know why cuz it is so unhealthy. I am giving up fast food, all of it, Wendy's, McD's, BK etc. I am also going to add something new to my eating each week. I will by trying salmon next week.

Ill do it. I need to try to lose it anyway so what do I have to loose besides weight.

This exactly. Find something that works for you. Start small maybe change one thing about your diet or exercise. Once you feel you have stuck to that add something else to change. Little changes can make big differences.

I agree with all of you. My downfall has always been food. As for the cardio and calories burned I wear a heart rate monitor so I know the calories burned are right. I typically count a little less on that as well. I am not offended and open to any suggestions for food. I can tell you that I drink plenty of water and…

I'm in. Right now I am 5' 10" and 269. By valentines day I want to be 259lbs. Roughly two pounds per week.

AS most people have said, there will be some days that you just make really bad choices. I did so today. All you can do is realized what happened, learn from it and move on. Tommorrow is another day and you can't give up.

HOw do I update my plan for two pounds per week. I want to make sure my calorie intake is accuarte.

Thank you all for the support. I do prefer to way myself everyday to see how my progress is or isn't going, I am back down again beyond the 2lb that I had se for myself last week so I am back on track and plan to stay that way.

Thanks for the support. I do drink my water that is one thing that has never been an issue for me. I know you can't gain 4lbs in a day and I am guessing my scale is also a little off it just frustrating because I don't know whether to go with the goal i actually hit yesterday and plan on two lbs from that for 1/15/12 or go…

Im in. I have been on my fitnesspal for awhile but only in the last few months have I really been logging in my food and exercise. I am 11 pounds down and I am looking to lose at least 59 to reach my starting goal. So count my in.

I think this is a great idea. I may have to try something to that effect next month. Heck I may even piggy back off yours and do the same thing. We'll see. As for my motivation right now, I have tried to make a new years resolution to compete in at least a 5k walk/run within my community.
