  • This has been a tough week for me. I have been very sick and my doctor advised that I hold off on any serious exercise. However, I still lost one pound! Also, the nurse at the doctor's office commented that although my blood pressure was not high (usually in the 115/74ish range) it was exceptional during this visit at…

  • Great job everyone! I'm down 4 pounds from my last weigh in (which was actually the Monday before the challenge started so technicially this is two weeks worth of loss). This loss puts me in Onederland. It's very exciting! I told the 200's we were breaking up and that they should grab tissues and pack their bags because…

  • I experienced the same thing! I modified the exercise for my own comfort and rather than balancing on the weights, I would stay on my hands and use the weight for a row, lean on it for the leg lift and then take my hand off. It slowed me down a little but definitely helped my sore hands.

  • Hi Everyone! I'm excited to be a part of this challenge! I'm looking to lose about 1lb per week but anything over that will be a nice bonus (slow and steady wins the race). Good luck to everyone!

  • Hi! Feel free to add me (and anyone else, feel free to add me as well). I have been on MFP for a little over a month and am already down 10lbs but am hoping to lose another 50-60 pounds to put me in a healthy weight for my height (5'5 1/2"). I'm feeling really excited and motivated so I'm happy to connect with you. Let's…

  • I have been roasting large pans of various veggies with just a bit of olive oil and seasonings and adding them to salad. It's a nice change from the typical salad inredients. Also to liven things up, I like to use a low sodium (or homemade) salsa in place of salad dressing. It makes me feel like I'm eating a taco salad…

  • I've been using organic salsa in place of salad dressing. It's pretty low cal and gives the taste of a taco salad. I spent a long time in the grocery store reading labels until I found one that wasn't too high in sodium but it was worth the extra time!

  • Hi! I'd love to be a buddy and offer encouragement and motivation! I too am hoping to start a C25K once the weather gets a bit warmer. I've even registered for my first 5K to help keep me motivated. Knowing someone else is doing a similar program would be really great. Feel free to add me!
