I'm in for 2-3 weeks... let's see what I can handle

my nutrition teacher said that most pregnant women have the misconception that they're really eating for two when really you're eating for a tiny growing baby. You are really supposed to only increase your caloric intake about 250 calories per trimester as your should only gain about 30-40 pounds from the pregnancy.. Just…

My weigh in was 129 today!! I also posted my most recent bathing suit pic which has been my inspiaration for my trip to Mexico this summer!

131.2!!!!! Only 6 lbs left!!

I'm Monday Weigh-ins. But it's a very slow weight loss. I'm toning quite a bit so my body is just changing shape more than anything. My Last weigh-in was 133.6, today I weighed in at 132.4

I only have 8 more to go!! Yea!

Don't give up! If your measurements are still changing it means that all of your hard work is not going to waste. Perhaps for you a diet change up would be good.

A great way to get over a plateau is to change up not only the type of calories you are consuming but also your exercise regime. You are off to a great start and are really getting some great exercise. Because you are doing the same types of routines frequently, trick your body into thinking that it needs to work hard…

That's a great step to getting back on track to losing that last 10 lbs! AWESOME!

Thanks for all of your suggestions! I tried the plank workout and love it! You all rock!

:glasses: :glasses: :glasses: :glasses: :glasses: Allright! It's time for our first CHALLENGE! Take a look at your calorie intake for the last week. What are you eating a lot of. From that, I challenge you to go in a different direction for the next week ending Sunday, March 23. EX: I am taking in plenty of fruit which…

YUP! You can do it. I tend to give up when I hit plateaus so that's what we're here for... SUPPORT. 10 left! Way to go. That's exactly what I have left and the scale wont budge... twinsies! :tongue:

Well, we all know what this is! Unfortunately, sometimes you can do everything right, lose a few pounds and your body will adjust to the work you are putting it through; thus, the plateau.... I have hit a plateau with my weight loss and figured there should be some things posted about this brick wall we all tend to hit. If…

Just remember that the Wedding isn't only about the day. It's about the marriage that you and your future husband will share and build together. It's about the celebration of beginning a new road and a brand new life! Sure everybody wants to get into shape for their wedding day, but you should be losing weight for…

So today I hit the 135 mark (down 10 lbs) YAY!! And I put on a pair of size 7 jeans that haven't fit me in a long time and they LOOKED GREAT! SO cute.... I didn't go to the gym today, I was swamped with meetings at school. I was due for a day of recovery considering I went to the gym 6 days last week. Sometimes I have to…

I didn't see the challenge but it just so happens that I did 200 crunches yesterday! Woohoo!!

I was just curious to find out how far you live from the school where you teach at. I work part-time along with going to school part-time and it does get difficult at times to get up and exercise when all you want to do is relax from a long strenuous day. I started riding my bike to work and school. I do only live 1 mile…

Hi there! I'm 22 years old and I want to lose a few pounds but really I do just want to be healthy. I'm more focusing on toning my body and don't so much care about the number. I'm very muscular as it is so it is very unrealistic for me to want to be one of those girls who are striving to be 105 lbs. It's not my body type…

I hear ya.. I've also lost 9 lbs since we ordered my dress and it def. needs to be taken in. HOPEFULLY A LOT MORE!!!:tongue: Great job so far. It'l look great!! Keep up the good work

Hey ya'll! I put up the stick figure bridesmaid dress that I'm supposed to wear!

I'm a bridesmaid for a wedding on June 22. I have plenty of time and I have been doing a great job! I've lost 9 lbs so far and I have another 5-11 lbs to go. I would like to ultimately achieve 125lbs but will be content at 130 lbs. This is the first time I've ever been a bride's made so I'm way excited but all of the other…

The amount of calories the website says for you to consume if you would like to lose weight are based on normal activities not including any extra exercise. Are you getting additional exercise?

Does anyone have any tips on some good ab exercises? I have been doing 200 crunches a day along with scizzor kicks and I'm looking for something new to mix it up and get those super flat abs..:drinker:

My name is Brittany and I'm 5'4 136 lbs. My first goal weight is 130 lbs but I would eventually like to get 125 lbs. I have a wedding coming up that I will be participating in and I want to look fab! I also am going on vacation to mexico this summer and am hoping to look great in a swimsuit. My body's weight was at a stand…
