Day 2 and I am already feeling it! I am not too good with push ups (aka can barely do 2) so today was a struggle, but my sister in law was the same way when she started and she can do them no problem now (she's into the second month) so I'm hoping for the same results! I had been working out on the treadmill (running,…

I just started Insanity on Monday and I am doing fine, just taking breaks when I need them. I'm not starting with a solid cardio ability right now, previously I have been doing treadmill workouts where I walk .25 miles, run .5 miles (do this for about 3 miles). I can't do everything, but I do what I can and if I need a…

I am in! I have 20lbs total to lose, so this would put my halfway to my goal! Currently 5'8" 170lbs Goal: 150lbs. The least I've ever weighed was 140 and the people around me we worried for my health, so I don't want to get back to that weight again. To reach this goal: Stay under my calorie goal most days (I know there…

Wanted to add, I know packaged foods aren't the healthiest, but sometimes you're just craving: Ellios is a low calorie pizza option (I usually have with a salad or steamed veggies) Easy Mac is good with steamed broccoli, and only 220 calories per pack! I live by myself, and sometimes it is hard to motivate myself to cook…

M&Ms, I have a really sick addiction to M&Ms, sorting them by color and then eating them based on their color. But really, with anything, it is portion control! I can't open a bag of anything and not finish it. So I now find myself buying all of my packaged snacks in the 100 calorie packs or for my M&M addiction, fun size.…

26 here! I had lost weight in undergrad, but gained a bit while in grad school. Now trying to lose 25-30 pounds, but taking it one day at a time. I feel like I have been off and on since I graduated in 2009, and working in the food industry (I run taste tests) and travelling a lot doesn't help! RIght now I am trying to…

Yes serious alarm bells.. he then went on to explain how his friend "blocked" him and it involved her grabbing parts of the anatomy that I would never touch in public!! I am suddenly very busy and going to have to work late tonight.. Oh well, he was fun to talk to at the wedding!

We should be friends, this list is awesome!

Going out to eat! But now that I am on MFP I will be cutting back on that for sure! :)

I am a professional taste tester. Really. I am a Sensory Manager and I also focus on consumer insights (online surveys, focus groups, customer interviews) Mostly I taste products and describe them. :)

LOVE this!

I'm 5'8, feel free to add me!

Happy Monday all! I just filled out my information into the spreadsheet. Can someone let me know if I did it correctly? Thanks! How was everyone's weekend?

I'm here :) Got home from the gym then dinner and now relaxing before bed.

I have given up on online dating. Too many horrible stories, and I always ask myself if I would be happier with the person, or alone, and I always end up saying alone. I also am giving up with online and just going to stick to activities that I like and hopefully will meet someone through that. I've tried paid sites (Match…

Thanks Suzie! I am signed up for the Philadelphia Rock N Roll 1/2 Marathon Septmeber 16th. I will start the challenges on Sunday (the plank challenge). What days do we weigh in/post our weights? My starting weight is 167. I actually have lost 1lb already so I am now at 166. That's 1lb closer to my goal! :) Do we post our…

Thanks for the welcome! I'm sure everyone has great dating stories!

Just saw this and have to join! To awesome not to! Going to start with Bag End to Rivendell!

Hi All, I would love to join, reading through the rules of the challenges now and I think this is awesome! So excited that I can work towards my weight loss goals with fellow Potter fans! A bit about me: 5'8" female, looking to lose around 20lbs and also training for a 1/2 marathon in September. Let me know the details of…

Feel free to add me :)

I'm doing the Color Run 5K in Philly on July 8th, and then the Rock N Roll Half Marathon in Philly on September 16th. I have done 5K and 10k races before and enjoy running, but have found that if I don't have another race coming up or a new goal, I make excuses to skuip a workout. I have started my official "training" this…

I'm also looking for friends and to lose around 20. Have you set any short term goals? I think I work better if I have minor goals that add up to big ones :)
