Absolutely amazing...good job you two. I wish my husband would get on board with me.

I believe cutting out my sugars and complex carbs has helped me the most. Not only does it help me loose weight, i feel less bloated and full after meals and i don't get the sugar cravings. I think that it up to each individual to find what works best for them. I personally am sticking to watching my carb and sugar intake.

You know i sooo feel the same as you. I myself am stuck in a rut. I eat roughly 2000 calories a day but i workout all day long 5-6 days a week. I lost 14 lbs this last summer only to find myself put it back on and im completely stuck. But im not giving up.....i know that by doing so i will gain alot of weight really quick.…

I am seeing my body change....i threw out my scale because i was getting so frustrated with it and it was a downer. But my last round i did the…

You will love it here.....if i didn't have this in my life the past 6 months, there is no doubt in my mind that i would be 30 lbs heavier than i am now. It keeps you on track and if you slip it ends up being so much easier to get back on track with motivation from MFP friends. Because everyone has a bad day or…

Stay Positive.....i have been doing double time by doing insanity in the morning and then snowboarding atleast an hour to 3 hours a day and my scale hasn't budged. But i know that my last round i didn't start seeing my weight drop until month 2. I can tell i am firming and tightning up. I know that if i push through till…

The cardio abs was definately hard....i think its more uncomfortable because we just did pure cardio and then start another workout on top of it. I think that next time i will do my cardio in the morning and my abs at night and see if that helps my attitude toward it.

Do you have a phone that allows you to download MFP app? I just got it and now i can log anytime and anywhere so that i don't have to try and remember everything i ate when i get home from work. Its a great tool and makes logging so much easier.

We can all…

I think we should all be happy with the decision someone has made that works for them. I am a firm believer that knocking someone down when they are happy with themselves takes them to a questioning world in thier mind which sabatoges any success they have made for themselves. Dun....your doing fabulous. Keep up the good…

I notice that i sometimes aquire blisters when i am running either up or down hill....the friction is what causes it. You could also be using your right foot a little differently than your left or your toe being longer than your big toe could be taking the brunt of the impact causing the blister....

Yes he is very attached to his foods.....he works hard and wants a good hearty meal when he gets home. I understand this and i do realize that there has to be give and take on both sides when it comes to marriage. I would never forbid him from anything, all i want is to introduce more healthy choices into our lives. I just…
