  • fantastic!! congrats on the huge loss, such a big difference in your before/after!
  • nice!! i'm actually experiencing something a little different at the moment. *luckily* i kept all my clothes over the past few years, even though most were way to tight. now, as i'm easing into my smaller figure, i'm able to pick out things i haven't worn in years and throw them on. it's like christmas! once i get to my…

  • I'll back that up. I've heard that spikes in calories/carbs/fats/etc... can actually help to kick start a stalled metabolism. Twice so far in my weight loss, I have hit a wall for about a week, had a day of "screw it, I'll eat that bowl of pasta" and suddenly the weight starts dropping off again. I think the key is to not…
  • stunning! way to go!
  • props dude! and i couldn't agree more. i've failed in the past because i was too willing to give up when something broke my routine. now, a break in the routine (a day without exercise) doesn't make me wanna quit, it pisses me off to the point where i want to workout until i can't walk the next day. even on my "rest" day…
  • these are "processed" foods and therefore deemed evil by all the purists, however, i enjoy the following: -Special K sour cream and onion cracker chips. 27 chips are only 110 calories, and that one serving is more than enough. -Honeywheat braided pretzels. 8 rods = 110 cals. i like to dip them in mustard or a wedge of…

  • sorry to hear the news about your grandmother. hospice is an incredible organization. i hope it makes you rest a little easier knowing that she will be in great hands! as for the running and being motivated by emotion, this is completely true for me. when i've had a rough day, or a setback with my diet, the old me would…

  • keep it up, you look great!!
  • Back in the 90's Apple did an ad campaign called "Think Different". This is a quote often used with that campaign and it has always been one of my favorites: "Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of…
  • amazing! awesome transformation!
  • welcome lisa!
  • a quick go-to for me: whole wheat penne pasta (about 200 cals per 3/4 cup) 1-2 boneless/skinless chicken breast - (approx. 120 cals per piece) 1 or 2 servings (1/4 cup) of Bertoli 4 cheese Rosa sauce (depends on the amt of pasta i cook) - about 120 cals per 1/4 cup I suggest measuring the pasta and sauce per serving size…
  • congrats! you look great!
  • props man! you look like your on track to look like the ripped up folks in the commercials. once i hit my first goal weight, i am definitely gonna have a go at p90x.
  • wow, just looked up a ton of information on HIIT. the calorie burn with HIIT vs regular cardio seems to be much greater. i definitely wanna give this a try. quick question, if i'm doing any exercise, i have my ear buds in. does anyone know of any downloadable HIIT workouts? like one's where the change in music would be the…
