  • I know a lot of women who have used it and it really helped them lose weight. My mom and her friends all do it. My mom has been drinking it for the past 3 or 4 months and she has definitely slimmed down. She fits in what were her "goal pants" now but I don't think she's lost a lot of pounds per say. One of her friends has…
  • I've been logging my food consistently for 2 months. I rarely log exercise, but I will say I'm on day 12 of Jillian Michaels's 30 Day Shred. Up until about 3 weeks ago, my calorie goal was 1200, but being a rule follower, I would steer to stay way under that. I've since bumped it up to 1300 but I still find that difficult…
  • Hi Kaizen! I would love to start Insanity on the 14th with you! I'm in the middle of doing the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and I can definitely feel my body getting stronger. I've heard great things about Insanity. A few summers ago I did p90x for about 2 months but my goal was to get leaner and lose some inches. With…
  • HI! I just turned 23 a few weeks ago. On top of that I started my first (real-life) desk job at the end of July. I gained about 20 pounds during my senior year of college so my first goal is to get rid of that. From there, I think another 10 pounds would put me in a happy, healthy place.
  • This is all very helpful. I'm not too terribly concerned with reaching a goal weight or a number on the scale. Ultimately it is about how I look, feel, and see myself. Ultimately, if I could lose 10%-15% of my body fat (yes, that's a significant range), that would be ideal. From what I'm gathering strength training seems…
  • Thanks for the tips. I have heard C25k is really good to get you going. I haven't heard of New Rules of Lifting for Women. I'll have to look into that.
  • Hi! I'm new to actively participating in the MFP community but I've been logging for a couple months now. Honestly, I don't see or feel any differently. I'm 23 and stand at an intimidating 5'2. SW/CW (and my highest weight ever): 165 GW: 130 I've always been on the heavier side. 3 years ago I weighed about 130 and that was…
  • I have a similar goal. I've been on MFP for about 2 months, have been logging pretty consistently. Since joining I've gone from eating everything and anything I wanted to noticing what I eat and realizing it might not be needed. I probably exercised 3 times in the past year, now I try to do it at least 4 times a week…
  • I'm new to posting on the forums but I would love to keep up with this! I've been logging on MFP for about 2 months but I honestly just started weighing myself last week (Originally, I had thought I would go by the "see how it makes me feel" motive, which was boring and uninspiring). Realizing I had gained 25 pounds my…
