Hey Amy! Add me! :flowerforyou: Open invite for others to add me too.

OMG! I do this at home "5" days a week come hell or high water!! . I live in the middle of nowhere and created a way for myself to do this with videos. 95-100 degrees and I love 60% humidity.. is my Hot Yoga room. I do Hot Vinyasa Yoga when my body is healthy..........I had to give up the treadmill last fall and find a…

Welcome! This place is very addicting! :)

Sorry I do not have any information for you. However, I HAD to Congratulate you! :drinker: You are such an inspiration to us all. Sooo happy for you. Enjoy that new Bod! :flowerforyou:

You two are NOT alone here! This is only my second week of this website and I LOVE it (add me if you wish) This is one of the most common questions most people ask. After combing and consuming the message boards to understand it too, I found this thread. I have always exercised, but never 'ate' back my exercise calories or…

Welcome girl! I love, love, love it here too. :) Good luck and grab that goal!

Welcome! You will Looove it here as we all do! I will add you as a friend and hopefully you accept so we can support each other. (Anyone reading this - open invite to friend me! )

Welcome! This is my second week and really LOVE it too!

With physical health issues I had to give up the treadmill last fall and LOVE a hard sweaty workout, so I was devastated. I started to explore and research Hot Yoga, which is Bikram yoga and it burns almost 1000 in 90 minutes. Sooo, you have to choose the right Yoga to gain strength benefits. Hatha Flow is simply…

I will add all of you or add me if you are reading this. The more support the better! :flowerforyou:

Its my thing and has been for decades. I work in the personal growth industry. There isn't any spamming here, otherwise I would give you my work/website...... "Your inner voice is the "Voice" of your self esteem".....~ Merna Throne :flowerforyou:

I am with you girl! That is my goal too and this is my first week here. Add me as a friend everyone and we will support each other. My goal is by June 30! :flowerforyou:

Thanks all! I lost 1/2 pound this past week and then found this site. I had a few smoothies this past week and not sure how it affected my loss or if I should just be happy with 1/2 pound. (at least I am going in the right direction) My goal for the upcoming week is to eat most of my exercise calories (EEeekk! Not use to…

Welcome - my first day too! :drinker:

{{{Standing and Cheering for you}}}} Congrats! Just think of the changes you made from the inside out here... You are truly an inspiration to many. Wow, just wow!

Right, that is why she said they are OK...

Jillian counts calories too, but I do think it has to do with the amount of fiber, no breads, starches, etc in the program too. Just curious is anyone knew more info on this. I am definitely logging the calories and I am making the commitment to eat my exercise calories, which I have never done before. I can still have…

Thanks, I clicked on that link and found exactly what I am looking for! I am going to do it and follow eating my exercise calories this week and take one week at a time. Its hard and never really did it. This could be what Jillian and Bob always talk about with contestants eating too little and scared to eat all these…

Ditto Stacy! Let's do this together~

Logically this makes sense too! I am curious how this works when they are recommending this. They must have a special diet on the items you do count.. Not sure.

Hello Joy! Its my first day here too. Awesome site with the tools and people too. I usually do all this math on my own, but have learned more since I signed up. GREAT site! Love all the warm welcomes too!

Ok, this is the thread I was looking for. I just found this site today and was a little surprised as how many calories my daily intake was raised on the days I exercise. That FREAKED me out, but doing it my way with an average of 1350 a day, I lost only 1/2 pound, WHICH led me to find this site from my frustration. I…

I found another thread to repost this question too. :flowerforyou:

Thanks Katy! I have a question for anyone here. I am reading through the free software to track everything! (I usually do all the math on my own etc.) Incredible tools! The calculator is actually giving me more calories than my norm of 1350 a day (I alternate 1200 & 1500 - avg 1350 per day) Should I eat more than with the…

I have had periodic binges, so I can relate on that level. It does sound like your body is simply adjusting so just keep going! That would make so much sense to sort of 'reset' your metabolism from your habits prior. It didn't happen over night, so give it some time to 'reset'... Good for you in taking back your control!…

Wooow Ladies! Thanks soo much~ I weighed in this morning and only lost half a pound and it freeeaked me out. I set a search on site and found these forums....lead me to y'all! Look forward to taking this journey together! Merna
