  • I had the same thing happen to me! Isn't it awesome! I cannot believe I went from a size 12 myself to just around 0-4 depending on the brand and fit (as we are all shaped differently). I am very happy for you. It is a major accomplishment for all. I remember going for the size 6-8's and once I did come out to look in the…
  • Why do I get the feeling after reading all these great posts that this is like an Alcoholics Anonymous board? And that's not to say its a BAD thing at all. Some of us do have an addiction and/or unhealthy relationship or approaches to food. The only thing we really can do is simply stay consistent with what works. An…
  • In the past year of being on MFP, I have had great results. I finished up my Master's and passed two CPA exams on the first go, a 40lbs. weight loss, and didn't too badly neglect my children and fulltime job. It IS a hard thing. But one thing I have noted, both a good workout, nutrition and study habits need to form. You…
  • Okay! You totally said it better than I did :).
  • Okay understandably its not the drunk or buzzed feeling, but yes the constant increase in activity that one's liver and organs go through when drinking is something to consider. I understand that the CDC is not labeling me, but trying to (or I naively hope) that they are trying to control alcohol related diseases. Again, I…
  • I currently am training for a half marathon as well. I have finished Insanity over a year ago, but still do it about 1-2 times a week. It is a great way to change up the monotony of pounding pavement and get a great full body workout. The interval training helps keep up my endurance and be a faster runner. Especially with…
  • Marathoner my behind! You so are! You know I was "worn-down" by the YMCA to run for their camp program. Really it was the motivation to run for the cause and I found the money (yes I am pinching here and there and begging for funds like no other) but heck! The kids that benefit are worth it. Once you find the cause, your…
  • I agree early in the morning is best to just get it done. The problem is getting from the bed, past the fridge and to the TV at such an early hour. Granted I have to get up about 5am (or 4:30) depending on the dogs wanting out early just because they hear me up. I have noticed that I do burn more calories later in the day…
  • I would love to have more fitbit friends! I have had a fitbit for almost 4 months. It has been great! I would love more encouragement! ADD ME! www.fitbit.com/user/25X96Y I try to keep it open out there. I would love feedback on my stats. Let's do this!
  • I completely relate! I myself have a 3 year old and a step daughter (10) whom my husband and I just attained custody. I am finishing my masters and studying for my CPA. I MISS just not caring about me and having cuddle time with the infant. But lo, my babes are little ladies. I love the accountability here on mfp. This has…
  • I just started my second round today! I hated the fit tests every time I did them. But there is an upside. It is nice to see the changes. I lost a lot of what I had when I finished Insanity a month ago. I couldn't believe it. But you will be amazed at how much you will improve in two weeks. Even if you don't feel you don't…
  • Wow! I am on my 14th day (OFF!) of Insanity as well. I am on trying to find motivation for tomorrow's workout. I cannot even think of starting a second round! Aren't you feeling a little slumped? I am! The past few days have been a bit rough for me. I cannot tell if it is motivation or the will to go on has left me. But I…
