I like 65%-80% dark chocolate and keep blocks of it in my freezer. for me, by the time I've finished the frozen piece, the craving is gone. if I still crave it and know I shouldn't continue, I have a really bitter (95%) bar that I nibble off of. since it is just a little TOO bitter for my tastes, it kills the chocolate…

this mind set is why I have yet to get the courage to go to the gym... there's only so much reading about it can help, it's much different to remember proper form when you've got the weight right there... maybe i'll try to hit the gym when i'm smaller and a trainer is less likely to over look me because of my flab.

amazing! you look stunning hun! the dress looks great on you

26 this august, no kids, single. too much time working and hating the place I live. I want to move back to my hometown before settling down but bills are a little too high for that right now lol.

I take a picture of myself in the mirror. sometimes just looking in the mirror doesn't work because I may see myself smaller or bigger then I am. (today was smaller day: I felt great and the mirror said ok... then I took a pic of myself and had to ask my friend if I had an odd angle... I was a crusher when they said no. I…

beef burgers. salt. most fast food (not taco bell!) I like more new foods then foods I don't like anymore

same here. I have noticed, while I work out, my belly will get even softer just before I lose inches. slowly my stomach is getting smaller but it's still very soft. I was told it would stay soft until I was around my last 15-20 pounds (or until my body fat % got to the teens)

this is the second time doing 30DS this is my day so far: 30DS L1D1 (270 cal) JM BFrontside C1-C3 (162 cal) Walking 2.5 MPH 5.25 Miles (547 cal) I have no idea how i'm even going to get out of bed tomorrow!

try this. do you know the info for your current recipe? find the info for the beef and the turkey and calculate the difference between them (ex: -20 cal, -4g fat) now add/subtract those totals into the original recipe. I had to do this with a few fast food items that I would buy.

you tried putting it into the recipes tab? i'm not sure how it would over estimate unless you logged something twice or wrong

how about you just ask him WHY he does it? he may not realize that he does. just be general about it and ask if it helps him or something because you had always thought it was bad. don't go all out and say it's horrible, simply ask.

my crush and my goal! my love my darling, my alan!

amazing job!

I have to be at work at 9am so I get up around 5:30 30 minutes to wake up and check my computer 1 hour to get set up and finish my work out 1 hour to cook and eat breakfast 45 minutes to get ready for work 15 minutes to drive I get home around 6:30-7pm and am in bed around 10:30pm at the end of the day I am too tired to…

when I can't double check, I pick the closest item on mfp, but I log the one with the most calories just to be safe.

who is this? she's so pretty!

eat right and work out. don't eat too little, know your personal goals. give yourself a little time to readjust. disclaimer- according to 1 video from JM im not a doc or anything so I only know what I have read/heard.

love Jillian Michaels- I find her to be more motivating because i'm 5'3" and she is 5'2" so as I work out I tell myself "that is the type of figure I CAN have" even if I don't get as fit as her, it gives me motivation to see someone around my stats looking so good.

"sumo squats"

I didn't like L2 at all. 30DS isn't my favorite of her workouts but I am enjoying L3.

OP that is great results! awesome job! but if you use the basics (arms, chest, waist, hips, legs) its not like you're adding tons of places that don't matter. why shouldn't a person say "I lost X" from belly, X" total"?

I saw more results in level 1 (I lost 14 inches total) then I saw in level 2 (only 5.75 inches total). i'm still super happy with my results and can't wait to finish up to see how level 3 worked. I think after I will take a break and try some of her other work outs and then try 30DS over. I would like to go 1 month on, 1…

I have a pair but I only use them while doing 30DS in my garage. I have a (fairly) old pair of adidas adiprene that I use for walking/jogging.

^THIS!!! level 1 I lost 1.9 pounds and 14 inches total (2 inches off muffin top) level 1 I lost 1.1 pounds and 5.75 inches total (1 inch off muffin top) I am LOVING level 3 so far. completed day 3 of level 3 today.

I start day 1 level 3 today. level 1 I lost 1.9 pounds and 14 inches (2 just from my muffin top) level 2 I lost 1.1 pound and 5.75 inches (1 from my muffin top)

straight leg or slim fit. nothing too baggy because I wanna see SOME shape to that bum but no mans pants should be tighter then mine!

tacos are my "gateway" food... and I work at taco bell :sad:

according to the dvd: 1) circuit training. 2) the work out itself is 20 minutes. 3) total work out including warm up/cool down is 25 minutes.

I think it's smart ones that have some small personal size pizzas. granted they aren't the healthiest you could get but I find having 2 or 3 in my freezer really helps when I get a craving. I've noticed that just by having them, and knowing I could fit them into my daily goals, I actually want them less and less. also, I…
