I still have a working VCR and tons of tape too :)

Yes, Marla I love the dress and how it hugs the curves. I use Leslie Samsone, Denise Austin (I love all of her workout videos), and Giamam walking Walk away the pounds videos. I didn't know The Biggest Loser had Walk away the pounds videos. I found a couple of The Biggest Loser DVDs on Amazon, thinking of ordering a few.…

[/quote] Actually, I'm not encouraging anyone to do nothing. What I am encouraging: Be aware of what you need to do to achieve your goals. To me, a good question is not "Can formerly obese people get, etc." it would be: How does a formerly obese person get fit/abs? [/quote] I totally agree! I know that in order for me to…

[/quote] That's what the Body for Life cardio session is. Intervals increasing in intensity for 20 minutes. [/quote] Thank You for sharing the Body for Life info. I would like to have abs once I reach my goal weight and I too have over 100 lbs to lose. I do cardio and strength training when I workout. Previously, I was…

I'm still here :) I created a new set of goals for June and all. Guess, I was just waiting for someone else to post.... June Goals: 1) Drink more water. 2) Do challenge exercises on scheduled days. (I'm working out 5 days a week resting two) 3) Walk at least 3 days each week. (Walk away the pounds counts) 4) Practice jump…

I so agree!! Although, Coca-Cola hasn't rotted my teeth it has played a part in my insomnia. I know you want to say DUHHHHH, but I'm the type of person that can drink coffee and it makes me sleepy. I have to drink really strong coffee for it to wake me up. As I began to do research on different factors that play a part in…

Well, I don't do the diet but I drink regular Coca-Cola on a daily basis!! I'm down to one or two a day whereas a few years ago I was consuming 5 to 6 per day. Did I mention that was EVERYDAY?? Well, last Thursday was the first time I went to the dentist since 1995. The reasons are really irrelevant my point is that I was…

I'm not sure what is going on!! I've been under my calories and exercised 3 days last week. I'm upping my cardio to see if this helps. I know I'm the type that has to exercise to get results. Maybe 3 days is not enough for me. I'm going back to & sticking with working out 5 days a week. I saw a constant loss when I…

Hello Everyone! I'm another who wants to and has quit many times when I didn't see the results fast enough. This time I am pushing myself to make it to my goal of 140-145. I'm mainly doing it for health reasons as well as regaining my life and energy back. The last time I was 145 I was a senior in high school 13 years…

I joined MFP and Weight Watchers the same week. I found that they work better if I used them together. I slacked off MFP for a while and it showed at my meeting. The motivation and support you get from both places helps, specially if you have a minimum amount from friends and family. Good Luck and Much Success :happy:

My favorite workout is the Elliptical Trainer. I have my good and bad days on it because I have a bad knee, but when my knee allows I get a great workout in on light resistance though. Today, I tried Daily Burn 15 Let's Move based on First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move Act. It was great and easier for me to do than…

Same here, feel free to add me :) I have 140 lbs to loose and would love to have some friends to encourage and help keep me motivated!
