I go to NYC every summer and I do not restrict myself on food at all ( I mean seriously they have some of the most amazing food in the country how can you?) Anywho, lucky for you NYC is hot and HUMID as all hell which means sweat sweat sweat!! I tend to walk EVERYWHERE while I'm there and drink tons of water and even with…

ahahaha I've been wondering the same thing. There are only so many times I can sing "boom I got your boyfriend" lol

One of the best purchases I have made particularly since we are tracking calories because eye balling can be VERY innacurate especially if your're accustom to seeing resturaunt and fast food portions. I bought one from target for 5 buck and it has served me well. I always make great use of my measuring cups :)

This looks soooo good!

So amazingly hot!!! Kepp up the great work :)

Try sleeping in your gym clothes and having your shoes,towel, and water by the door. Then set the alarm on your phone and put it next to the door also. That way you're already by the door may as well walk out of it to the gym :). it also helps if you're going to a group class like spinning or kickboxing so you have…

25 with 40 lbs to to lose. So glad you started this thread I've been looking for others in the same category so if anyone wants to friend request me please do! We can all use all the help we can get :D

Im with the above I think it's to hard for MFP to calculate especially since alot of calories burned from strentgh trainingcome from the "after burn", and even when you log it under the cardio strentgh training option it really doesn't give you that many calories :/

I would definitely recommend getting one I bought mine at Target after shorting out my ipod with sweat :/ it was less then 20 bucks and allows me to be more active during workouts without having to worry about it falling out....or shorting it out with sweat again >_<

definitely! even no fat milk has calories.

Work on the small goals (5,10,15 lbs) they'll add up to the big ones before you know it :). Also remember it's no just the number of calories you eat but what makes up those calories that will help you lose the lbs :)

definitely any yoga/pilates work out...maybe Zumba? I dont believe that involves any jumping

Ugh yes I also experienced headaches and moodines (geez youd think we were quitting drugs lol) So be prepared for these things it's a battle but you'll win! :)

I know you said no diet soda but maybe try replacing it with sobe life water 0 or diet snapple? There's also vitamin water 0 but to me its not as tasty as the other two. I recently gave up my one a day diet dr.pepper habit and for lent just to see if i could and it was hell the 1st week and a half but after that I forgot I…

Best of luck to you in your new journey!!

I've definitely had this happen also though switching socks helped me out. I never stay longer then 30 mins on a cardio machine though so by the time they want to start burning I'm switching to a different machine lol.

Welcome back! I'm also rededicating myself to the site as of today I'll send you a friend request :)

definitely the wheat but I agree with the above there's tons of sodium in the healthy option sandwiches. Getting a salad with spinach instead of the iceberg lettuce and putting your meat and veggies on that helps some.

I agree with the above it takes ALOT to get the 6-pack abs so if you don't want it you won't get it.

shots are the way to go. only 70 calories per shot of tequila :)

Maybe making gym an activity you and your hubby do together? I'm not sure about your gym but mine also has a daycare center you can drop your kids off at if they are not old enough to stay home alone. Also maybe even family outings to the park or kicking around a ball in the yard together could be a why for you to get in…

wow you look like a whole new person!!!

Great job!!! I see you're getting that vertical ab definition!!

this is saying soooooooo much!!! LOL

welcome!!! this is an awesome community that will definitely help if you let it :) feel free to add me if you'd like some buddies to keep you motivated

I totally agree. And they really aren't worth the ridiculous sodium intake. some sort of turkey sandwich with veggies or fresh fruit is always a nice meal and you can usually come in around 300 cal for that depending on what bread you use.

I set 4 different alarms to get me out of bed and get a morning workout before work because I'm to mentally/physically drained to go when I get off work. It will be hell at first but once you get that morning adrenaline rush and realize you've gotten you're owrkout out of the way before you day has even begin i swear…

This is definitely no small feat!!! congrats!

WOW you can totally see the difference!!! Awesome job and I love the new hair cut :)

If you're usuing a public gym make sure you're wiping down the quipment with cleanser before you use it. It could be that you're picking up germs others have left behind on the machines.
