  • Are those as simple as they sound? Line yourself up against a wall and push against it instead of the floor? Do you get the same benefits?
  • Wow.... I am a bridesmaid in an upcoming wedding but thats not why I'm losing weight... my friend is so incredibly sweet that even though I am by far the largest of the party, she says we all have different body types any way and is having us all wear different dresses to suit our body types... she picked the color and the…
  • I cant see the picture but its funny because my husband and I had the same conversation last night. I havent lost nearly that much (congrats!) but he was saying how great I was already looking and I just dont see where he can tell. But others have said it to me too so I dont know? Maybe we are just harder on ourselves so…
  • I involve my son a good bit and I do think he is learning a lot. He has a very good metabolism luckily (runs in his dad's side) but really he is VERY active and has wanted me to be active with him and so we are using my weight loss to his advantage. He knows that while I'm counting calories, he needs calories to grow and…
  • YAY! Congrats!
  • So I ordered 30 day shred on Amazon and was so excited that I decided to youtube it while I wait... Holy Cow. Not 10 minutes in my 8 year old son walks in and says "Mommy its ok you can stop if you want and take a break. You dont have to listen to that lady your face is all red" I almost stopped just from laughing but I…
  • I did want to ask as well, do these videos need extras? Like weights or something? I've never worked out to a DVD but Ive seen a friend do P90x and he has all sorts of stuff he uses with the dvd. What do I need to get?
  • All you ladies should get paid for advertising. Heading straight to Amazon :) I am a bridesmaid in a wedding at the end of September and I would love to see some serious results by then. I'm already starting to get compliments and people noticing so I'm totally motivated to pump up the effort. Great job all you who showed…
  • Rum and coke zero make an excellent splurge :-) but mostly I stick to water cause I doubt anything chemically created is good for you. I also do unsweetened tea with splenda every once in a while. I know splenda is being investigated lately though too. Another thing that's too good to be true.
    in Diet Coke? Comment by rshcraig June 2013
  • Awesome, thanks! Patience is still the hardest for me lol.
  • I just got home from a week at the beach and I had a lot of the same fears. I think you will be just fine. Just try to make the healthiest choices you can. I work at Mcdonalds and the food isnt that terrible if you order right... grilled chicken anything and apples or a side salad or yogurt. You sound like you are prepared…
  • I've been trying Zumba at home on youtube :) I love it but I KNOW I look like that ridiculous picture lol. But its fun and I found some youtube videos of bigger girls so I feel more confident. I usually burn about 350-400 calories doing 20 minutes (using my heart rate monitor to tell me). Its fun but I'm still too out of…
  • So, I've quietly watched several "I hate McDonalds" post and wondered if I should say anything but I think now is the time. Wait for it... drum rolls.... I work at McDonald's. 4 1/2 years there, I'm a manager and I think I've seen a good bit. In 4 1/2 years, I've seen McDonald's try desperately to conform to the standards…
  • I think its sad how many people are responding just to knock the User and the treadmill. Just because YOU can overcome your self consciousness or whatever it is you need to get past to run or walk outside doesn't mean everyone can. Any movement is better than no movement right? Stop being so judgemental people. If you…
  • I sent you a friend request. I am definitely in that boat, but I know we are at the right starting point.
  • Thanks for the warm welcome! Tiff, I was very excited to get my treadmill, as I have always WANTED to walk everyday, but I have a long history of self consciousness and I love being able to walk so much without worrying about an audience. Being able to exercise in private is amazing :) I'll add you
