That's awesome! You should be soooo proud of yourself!!

Mine are the same way! The kids cant wait for me to be able to start walking again, they too miss the long walks with mom. I have to say I never thought I would hear my 9 year old son say "Hey this is fun enough I would quit playing video games to take a walk with you mom!" lol

I did my first workout with EA in two weeks because of this whole "stay off the foot" thing. lol. I made a custom work out with most of the sports and a few arm workouts. I did this sitting in a chair, and did pretty well. I actually got a workout, I was suprised but it was nice to get a little work out in. :)

I personally can't stand the chocolate cupcake ones. They have a weird texture to them, but that's just me. I would rather eat a real one and exercize it off after trying them.

You did great. Personally, once I would have gotten my car running I would have headed for McDonalds. Thank's for not letting it get you to down and following through. Pat yourself on the back.:smile:

I haven't wii'd since wednesday. My foot just keeps hurting worse and worse, so i'm sticking to my 1200 calories. I'm hoping the wii fit plus will show up in the mail by wednesday as my hubby mailed it from over seas last tuesday. I can't wait. Great job everyone and keep up the good work!!

Congratulations! That is a big feat, you should definately be proud of youself. Keep up the good work.

There is a recipe similar to this in the biggest looser food swaps. What I do is take 2 yellow corn tortillas (80 calories), spray them with olive oil spray, and sprinkle with salt. Bake on 350 for 30 minutes or till you are happy. Super easy chips, yummy and you know exactly how many calories you are taking. The actual…

I have experienced the same thing. In almost five week's I've lost 7 pounds and three inches. The thing is, I lost inches faster than pounds. So keep up the good work, one day you'll wake up and be a few pounds lighter by suprise. :)

I remember that feeling, its wonderful!! Gratz!

I just finished my first 30 day challenge. As you all know, it was an accomplishment with the hurt foot. I just didn't do all of the exercizes so i didn't over do the foot. It's almost like cheating, but I don't care. lol. I lost 5 pounds and 2.5 inches off my waist and am pretty happy with that. I haven't decided if I'm…

I looked this up last night. Here are a few things I found: Stationary biking 20-30 minutes Walking Lung and squat exercizes, but be careful not to do them to frequently or too long or you wil end up making them thicker. I am sure there are more but those are the ones that stuck out to me, I just googled it. :)

I just had to write and tell you all that last night I was complaining to my hubby overseas that I can't find the Wii Fit Plus with the balance board anywhere around as well as online. I told him he should go check out the PX on his base. Anyway, I just woke up to an email saying that he found one and mailed it to me. What…

Thanks for the encouragement, I appriciate it. I just had wanted to loose about 25 pounds before my hubby gets home from deployment in 11 weeks. We'll see. :) I am sitting here in bed now with a bag of corn on my foot. :laugh:

Sad news! I'm two days from finishing my 30 day challenge with active and I have been told by the that I am not to do any weight bearing exercize on my left foot to include no running or walking. /tear. This is supposed to only last a few weeks, but still it sucks. :( I might have stress fractured it, but we have to wait…

You need to see your doc and probably get orthodics, and if that doesn't fix it you need to see a pediatrist (sp?). I have the same problem, I actually ended up hurting myself and then finding out I had flat feet. If the orthodics don't fix it you might have more trouble than you think, it could be a nerve thing. It's so…

Gratz! I just finished my one month today too. I've only lost five pounds with 25 more to go. I have however lost 2 inches off my waist and can fasten my bra as tight as it goes, when i could barely fasten it a month ago! It's exciting to see those changes. Let's keep up the good work!

I'm sorry but I had to say thanks for the laugh. I needed it. I just walked two miles trying un pissmyelf off at someone. My ipod played all the songs (on shuffle) I needed to hear to get back to being the happy positive person I need to be.

I'm in the last week of finishing my first thirty day challenge (I've always gotten sick and never been able to complete one since last July). My orange band has started ripping at the base of the handle, which kinda ticked me off. So when I was at target I found the offbrand one that is five dollars cheeper and looks like…

oops it posted it twice... grr

Thanks for your input. I have been having problems with my left leg due to flat feet and I think some nerve stuff. Anyway, not ten minutes into doing the workout I tweeked my leg and am limping again. So my decision is, I am going to find a gamestop with wii fit plus instock and trade this game in for credit. LOL. Oh well.…

Lovin this post. I totally know how you feel. Except I did this to my daughter yesterday. I asked her to bring me a soda and she brought me a regular pepsi instead of a diet. I sooo wanted the sweet goodness, but was like no get mommy one out of the box. She looked at me like I was crazy. lol

One of my favorite foods is Reese's Peanutbutter Cups (notice I said food not candy lol). Anyway, I was looking at this amazing reese's sunday at basket robins that I really want. It has 1200 calories!!!! OMG really? That's an entire day's worth of calories. I don't think I could ever even enjoy it now that I know how many…

I have that problem sometimes with the controllers, nothing like being told you're not squatting when you are or that you are walking and you aren't. LOL. Usually if I change the batteries it helps. The soreness kind of sucks, but I love it because it means it is more than a game and we are getting a real work out. I was…

I've never been a runner because I have bad asthma. I am finally well enough to be able to "walk briskly" and hope to be able to start running this month. I'm very crafty so as I listen to my playlist of faster music and I think about the next project I am going to work on. (Easter dresses and then princess dresses for…

That's nice to hear, I bought them a week ago. BUT I keep forgetting I bought them. lol They are still in the box on my sewing table, I guess I'll get them out and start tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.

I'll join too. I'm only seven work outs away from finishing my first 30 day challenge with Wii Active. I wanna do it at least one more time before I get the upgrade. Like I said in the other post its great all except for those Kick Backs (or ups, whatever it is). I've owned it six months and am just now finishing my first…

The Active is awesome. I can't believe that six months ago I could barely make it through the 15 minute easy workout. Now I do pretty good on the hardest intesity, except I hurt myself doing the kick ups. (My doc actually said its a bad exercize and I'm not alowed to do it anymore. lol) Otherwise I really work up a sweat…

Anger actually makes me hungry, lol. When I get irritated all I want are some carbs. Candy bars, cookies, something thick like pastries from starbucks. So I guess good job on going opposite of me. However, I have been married 11 years and my mil is bipolar and can drive anyone crazy. You need to ignore them, and go spend…

I just bought a wheat pizza crust and put sauce and cheese on it. My daughter had a blast making it and it tasted great. It takes less than ten minutes to cook. The brand was beritoli or soemthing like that. BTW the crust was already cooked.
