How many calories are you consuming a day? If your consuming 1200 calories and then burning 300 calories working out i would eat those back. Now if you consuming 1800 calories and burning 300 exercising than I wouldnt worry about it as much. If your hungry eat some or all of them back, if your not no worries.

I'm in on this one. 10 lbs to go and starting t25 monday so it's perfect timing.

Did the day 1 of cardio tonight to have a little headstart when i start it for real Monday. Holy cow, I spent more time trying to figure out how they are doing those moves that doing them, and I was still beat at the end. Hopefully it'll go a little better monday. Is doing it barefoot a bad idea? Between my shoes and the…

part of the reason for losing the weight slowly is its generally easier to keep it off than if your losing 2+ pounds a week. Not saying it can't be done, just that its easier. Once you've hit your goal weight you could just gradually increase your calories by 200 or so until you get to where its says your maintaining, then…

Mine should be arriving in the mail today, and was planning on starting Monday, but this seems like sounds advice, I may try to get a workout or two in this week yet to lessen the pain of next week. Thanks for the tip.

I'd ditch the frozen tv dinners. Probably a lot of sodium that could cause you to retain water and they're generally just not as healthy as advertised.

Drugs.... Mine sucked, had all four out at once and they were all in sideways... Food was the last thing on my mind for the first few days after.

I'm in the same boat. Thinking of getting it and doing in the mornings. My dogs need an hour long walk at least a day, so i'm hoping to do this in the morning to give me a boost of energy during the day, and keep the walk as a stress reducer after work. Couple questions i will add: Are crosstrainers the shoes to wear for…

Check out nerdfitness.com for other ideas. I don't have access to a gym and am running out of space in my home gym, so i do a lot of bodyweight exercises from that site.

Haven't found much to entertain me these days... I've backed Star Citizen, Dark Age of Camelot, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but they won't be out for a couple years. Played the Elder Scrolls Online demo a couple different weekends, just not sure I'd be able to play it enough every month to justify the $15 a month cost.…

typical day of work around 5k, and then another 10k when the weather is cooperating and i can walk my dogs. I wish my job wasn't so sedentary.

9 lbs is all i've lost since the 1st as well... Hoping the nicer weather will speed it up the next couple months....

now i really want a steak.

Have you had blood work done recently to see what your cholesterol actually is? I wouldnt worry too much about it. I eat probably a dozen eggs a week cuz im a creature of habit.

I aggrevated mine back in december, couldnt even hardly flex my heel to walk. Stopped working out a week and thought it was better but reaggrevated it. Had to rest it over a month before it healed. So have a lot of patience, and once your all healed make it a point to stretch that area more.

From what i can see, i think the Think Thin are a little higher calorie, lower fiber vs the quest. I think around 230 calories, and i can't find the fiber amount.

The girl scouts need to sponsor a nation-wide 10k to being the recovery process for everyone.

I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I've used the site below a few times for a guesstimate. It doesn't list how much a serving of each item consists of though. http://nutrition.saladworks.com/nutrition/CYO

if your eating around 1200 and then working out, your in starvation mode. Say your burning 200 calories working out, your netting 1000 calories, and you need to net 1200 at a minimum.

And that is why i don't eat salad, haha... So much work.

I'm gonna give this a try: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009NNFB0O/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=X3OL1ZMUNXH8&coliid=I1X2XSXEBBG6NK

i used to mix it with 5-alive juice, or any other citrus juice and called it Vitamin C. :)

What are you doing for workouts now? Are you bored with them, and maybe worth looking at switchin it up? I've actually put my Netflix addiction to good use, and use it to distract me while i'm on the indoor bike since i can't get outside as much as i'd like in winter.

what were you before and what are you now if you don't mind me asking? Great work btw.

One of my dogs licks floors, a lot... Vet never has found any issues with her health wise, but she has no teeth, so maybe that plays into it. Drives me crazy though.

Seems like a pretty damn good story so far.

<--- Eyes are up here ladies. ;)

I bought a cheap recumbant bike from walmart to start and have had decent success with it so far. It doesnt track my pulse but i got a HRM. It does track speed, miles, time, and its own calorie counter which is actually usually close to my HRM. It doesnt fold but has rollers to move it around. Has 8 levels of resistance.…

I love trying different craft beers, but diet root beer and whiskey is my go to these days.

Don't play as much as I used to, since playing video games probably helped me put on the weight to begin with, but I am playin Assassins Creed 4, Rome II: Total War, State of Decay, and played Defiance earlier in the year, but haven't gotten back into it.
