Frozen, apparently.

I used to eat Chobani greek yogurt, until I tried Yoplait greek yogurt. Yoplait greek taste waaaaayyy better. They even have Yoplait Greek 100, meaning only 100 calories. You can use the vanilla blended flavor for parfaits.Taste is extremely importantly to me and Yoplait reigns supreme. Chobani does have a slightly higher…

Turning the resistance all the way up and going all out sounds intense. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! That's what I was talking about. I thought I was doing HIIT but no, not really! Some of my intervals were way too long, and I most likely reduced the intensity during the interval well below 90%. And on top of that, I didn't rest long enough afterwards. Thank you for sharing your workout!

Thank you! That sounds like a good workout!

High Intensity Interval Training For example, you run as fast as you can for 20 seconds, and then do an active rest of walking for 10 seconds. Then you repeat. Some HIIT workouts range from 4 minutes to 30 minutes of intervals it just depends on what you're doing and what your goals are.

That makes sense. I never thought about that before. Thanks!

Thanks!

Thank you! I tried Tabata once and was thinking of incorporating it into my workouts.

That is the best comeback ever! I can't wait to use it. Some people do comment because they are truly concerned, but from my experience, most are jealous and want you to be unhealthy just like them. After all, misery loves company.

I know i am super late in seeing this but your progress is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. The journey is hard, but people like you inspire me to keep going!

Wow!!! Such a huge difference in a short amount of time! You are such an inspiration :)

These comparisons always seem to forget about the dollar menu. And $.50 hamburger day.

As a zumba/group X instructor, that disgusts me. They should've been reported and fired immediately. I do agree that there will be instructors that are not going to be as energetic or as friendly as others, but that type of behavior derails the whole purpose of group exercise, and therefore, should not be tolerated.…

Thanks for your input! Lack of access and education are two prominent barriers to health according to research.

Hi! Feel free to add me :-) Height: 5'7 SW: 249 CW: 228.4 GW 1: 199 UGW: 165-170 I love kickboxing/TurboFire, HIIT, strength training and planning to get back to running. I like anything that is high in intensity because I need to burn as many calories in a short amount of time. I don't have the time or the patience to do…

You should definitely look into booty bass/miami bass music of the 90s and DJ Uncle Al. That is the best workout music hands down!

I love that about Simmons too. I don't think I've ever seen other videos with people from all sizes besides his. It definitely is motivating when you see someone who looks like you putting in the work because if they can do it, so can you! Congratulations Op on your weight loss :)

Have sex and do a hand-stand. Or have sex while doing a hand-stand. I can't remember which one but at least the last one sounds like fun!

Unless you're auditioning for a group exercise instructor position, I don't see any possible reason why someone would think that would fly.

You can go to glassdoor.com to get reviews on interviews, salaries, and how it's like working at 24 hour fitness or any company/organizations. It has been very helpful to me so that I can be prepared on what to expect.

Too skinny would be under 150lbs. For my built, going under that would be too much. I liked it when I weighed in the 165-170lbs range. I prefer a higher body fat percentage than the average person, and do not like too much muscular definition. There will always be people that are negative no matter if you're "too skinny"…

The big cookie from papa john's..amazing! I didn't eat it in an entire sitting but it was gone within a couple of hours. I love a good chocolate chip cookie!

Ha! Yeah pretty much. There's no way that was a serious statement.

":-)" equals sarcasm for me.

How can you (not op but in general) not know that you are getting bigger?? There are mirrors and scales and even the fit of your clothes will let you know that you are getting bigger. Friends don't have to tell friends if they are big or getting big. They either know or are in denial.

If 25 minutes is all you have then go for T25. Month 1 workouts are about 40 min. and month 2 are about an hour long. It was hard for me to complete month 2 due to the longer workouts, but it can be done, and they are really good workouts. I was pleased by the results I had after month 2. You should check out YouTube to…

I love max interval plyo and pure cardio and I absolutely HATE max interval circuit!! I completed round 1 last summer and it was so hard. I remember on day 1 of month 2 me popping the dvd, seeing 59 minutes in the corner, and saying to myself, "oh *kitten*, how I am I gonna get through 59 minutes of doing this??!!" I…

Good for her! A lot of times people focus on changing the exterior without working on the interior. If she is happier at a heavier size, then that's her choice. Health is holistic, and it doesn't matter if someone is an ideal weight if they do not have their mental health in order.

Yup.
