  • To smoke everyone in the Garmin Weekly 70k Step Challenge (Yeah I know very petty). More like a mini mini mini goal. In conjunction with a calorie deficient, it has the wonderful side affect of weight loss (Main Goal).
  • Congrats! I love to eat too. With time, I have found that i am under calories more times than not. Good luck and keep up the great work!
  • Started over too in Mid March, after being slapped in the face with an A1C of 7.2 . Taking my time too. No more extremes for me. Just following a simple plan for now. * No added sugars * Limit Natural Sugars and simple carbs * Portion Control and staying under Calorie limits when possible * Staying as active as possible…

  • not really a runner but want to be , so I guess we on the same boat. what better time to start than today...
  • Just got it a few weeks ago to upgrade from the fenix 2. I use it for running, biking, walking and yard work HR monitoring. I got the sapphire mainly because of the looks, I use my fenix as my daily watch, and it's a looker. I love the damn thing. only draw back is the proximity needed to your phone to use the smart…
  • Using it for walking running, and ... Yard Work. Funny to see the GPS activity, looks like a toddler took to my property with a ball point pen.
  • Miami here. Feel free to add me.. Recently coming back from just over a year hiatus.
  • Awwhh Hell!... I have a cheat treat sometimes almost everyday, I just work it into my calorie goal. My favorite is a McDonalds or Burger King SoftServe cone... Only 170 cal. My modo is don't deprive yourself, just make sure you don't go over your calories. That way you don't need a cheat day, you eat what you want when you…

  • Feel free to add me Dave and Welcome to MFP!
  • Hello... Miami here... Nice sized group!
  • One of the side affects of Fibro is water retention. That could be part of it. Just stick to it and don't get discouraged. Like previously mentioned you have to be consistent and weigh everything. Start moving when you can cause it WILL get better. This should not be a deit that you do for just a little while till you…
  • Rule of thumb for me is that if I am sore, the scales are going to show more weight. This is because when you are sore your muscles retain a crap load of water for the repair process. It was frustrating for me when I introduced circuit training/cross fit to my cardio only routine. All of a sudden my steady weight loss went…
  • 36.55 That's late isn't it? Feel free to add me.

  • Wooo WHOOO!!! I just started Fit Star this morning!! IT ROCKS!! I felt so freaking energized after my 7 min fit test it was ridiculous!
  • That is an AWESOME start!! YOU GOT THIS!! I am a DietCoke-Aholic so I can relate to #3
  • Jonna.. I think you have already done one of the hardest parts, and that is to post it here. One of the most important things is to come to grips with the reality that you have tried, you have failed and damn it you are going to try again and work on not making the same mistakes. For that I applaud you! Your a woman... you…
  • Me Too! Accountability.. I know a lot of us need a bit more of this... Feel free to add me.
  • 36 year old dad and Husband. Currently 293 down from 320 when I started my 2014 new years resolution (I know YAWN). Setting small goals of 275 by April to start, but eventually want to get to 190 ~ 200. I workout 5 times a week with heavy yard work on Sat or Sun for additional exercise. I am a data collecting freak, so I…
  • Congrats on your engagement! I am in the same boat as you as far as weight to loose. Started a couple of weeks ago @320 and need to get to 200. I have set my small goals though 270, 250, 230 and so on. WE CAN DO THIS!! And when you're done You will look AWESOME on your Wedding day! Have faith believe in yourself and you'll…
  • I don't have the ft4, and recently traded my Fitbit one for a Withings pulse. I have to agree with Bok. The Fitbit is just a super-pedometer and sleep tracker as is my pulse. I use it in conjunction with a Garmin HRM & and foot pod combo. If I had to choose between one or the other for workout purposes, the HRM would be my…
