I also was wondering, since I cant spend exactly 30-60 minutes at one time working out. would it work to work out for 15 minutes three times a day? My daughter gets bored easily and when shes done the next thing you know shes hanging all over me and it throws me off.

Thanks for all the advice. Im going to dance a bit today to warm up. Then probably do jumping jacks and use my 3 lb weights for arm strengthening. Then do leg lifts. If i dont feel like ive worked out enough then I might look up a zumba video and try getting in some zumba! ( I used to go to zumba twice a week and loved…

I just havent made it out to buy any and im trying really hard to lose 10 lbs in the next 4 weeks or so since im going on vacation. What is the best way to shed weight? Walking the park is 1/2 mile around so two times around is a mile, at a moderate pace does anyone know how many calories i could burn?

no we just currently moved and havent gotten our cable set up yet. Our dvd collection consists of war movies (for the hubby) and spongebob dvds lol. The closest park to me is a good 30 minute drive so thats somethign i will have to do maybe a couple times a week. Very good idea though, I hadnt thought about taking her to…

Im in! I need this! I need support and friends on here! Feel free to add me anyone!

Ok! Im always so scared of having a heart attack! LOL. Im afraid where im so big ill break the machine too! Its stupid i know!

thanks! I am a member of the local YMCA and they have a gym. What are my best cardio workouts? Currently ive been doing 30 minutes on the treadmill at 3.0. Then 30 minutes on the stationary bike on the weight loss setting. Then usually 20 reps of weights for arms and 20 crunches. Is this a decent workout?

i too had a bad today, wound up eating a whole 8 inch ham,onion and cheese pizza and then a donut! Ugh! I felt so stuffed afterwards and dissapointed! Then I thought to myself "why beat yourself up? You know you can do this, youve done it well so far!" Thats when I sat down and wrote out my meal plan for the next three…

I appreciate the advice I really do. As for peanut butter, i dont like peanut butter. The nuts are something I eat as a snack, healthy trail mix and other nuts. I think everyone is different and what works for one may not work for another. Im working hard to figure out what foods are going to help me reach my calorie goal…

well to be honest with you, i strive to reach my 1500 calorie goal every once in awhile. But the foods im eating, its really hard to reach tthat goal, theyre very filling foods and when im not hungry i cant eat. Im having a hard time finding that balance between too little and too much!

well i say congrats to that! Wether it be water weight or poundage there is nothing mroe exciting than getting on the scales and seeing the numbers go DOWN instead of UP right? Keep up the great work! Feel free to add me if your looking for supportive people!

well i try to at least eat 1000 calories a day. I find it hard though considering i try to schedule my meals out each mornign for the day. Then I always come up shorthanded and have to add in a snack or so to make up the rest. Sometimes i just feel full though! I really am happy with the weight ive lost, although it doesnt…

so is what im eating okay? I usually have lowfat cottage cheese and some kind of fruit for breakfast a weight loss shake for lunch lean cuisine or cooked chicken and veggies for dinner my snacks include all natural simply salted popcorn,cottage cheese and fruit,Chobani Greek nonfat yogurt is there something im missing? Or…

Hey Ricardo! I know what you mean about going back to your old ways. I have a struggle every single day to make sure I eat healthy. Especially since my husband doesnt eat very healthy. I have a hard time balancing his meals with mine. Its hard cooking to seperate meals! Ive found that reminding myself how tired I am of…

thanks guys I appreciate all the feedback. Im wanting to do this right but seeing as how this is my first time its good to have input on how to do this without hurting my body or causing more problems.

I try to. But being big all my life, im so scared to overdo it. I had some crazy theory that the less I ate the more id lose. I by no means starved myself but I was eating small portions and eating really low calorie stuff. Not allowing myself anything that would be bad for me. Ive loosened up a bit now. I think maybe i…

thanks. Well i was really under my calorie goal for awhile. Maxing out at 650 calories a day until i realized I was starting to stay sleepy and groggy. Ive upped to the 1200 range. Hopefully I will see a result in a week or two.

Im in Northeastern,Ky as well!
