What a wonderful decision! You are wise to start now to get in shape-you do not want to do much of that in basic training! Keep working and logging in to MFP-it will really help.

Jewel has better produce but I try to only buy what is on sale because it can be pricey. I have also had good luck with the produce at Meijer. This time of year I try to get locally grown things at the farmer's market.

A great idea!

Hello everyone! My name is Julie. I am a preschool teacher and mom of 5-ages 21, 19, 17, 15, and 12. My starting weight was 240 lbs. and I am now at 144.2 (as of this morning). I hope to get to at least 125, perhaps 120. I do an at-home workout every morning 9currently Bob Harper's Pure Cardio Strength) and I ride my bike…

Glad to be a panther!

I'd love to join. I need some extra motivation.

I love all of her dvds. 30 Day Shred, Ripped in 30, No More Trouble Zones, Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism, 6 Week 6 Pack are all great.

I just got back into biking and I love it! I bike to work (14 miles round trip) and try to stay out of my car all weekend. I take my bike to run errands. I love the exercise and the peaceful feeling I get.

Shred-it with weights uses a kettlebell weight (preferred) or a hand weight. The weight is utilized in all of the moves. I have done both dvds all the way through and felt shred it with weights did not contain as much cardio. Both are good!
