Obvious troll is obvious.

My EXACT thoughts. YOU MUST BE PSYCHIC

Hi Danielle, you have made a great first step. I also have a significant amount to lose. I try to hold my active friends accountable, so feel free to add me if you like. I'm in this for the long haul (slowly and steady wins the race), and I hope you are too. :flowerforyou:

Girl Gamers Unite! World of Warcraft (just hit my fifth 90) Star Wars the Old Republic (not playing currently) Any of the Lego games on PS3 Baldurs Gate (1 and 2) Diablo 2 and 3 ETA games I forgot about :D

Step ups, bent over row, squat, deadlift, lunge. Rinse and repeat. I then work on my smaller movements, so leg lifts (15 each leg), hip raises, planks and such then 5-10 mins cardio.

You're probably doing everything right, other than calling it a "health kick". It should be a way of life, embrace it! Keep up the good work!

In with popcorn.

I LOVE your profile pic :D Let me know if I can help with anything.

In for the lulz

Could also be your body preparing for the possibility of feeding new life. Storing up those fats and such. Once your body figures out that you aren't, the cravings should stop.

I think it depends on your personal symptoms. I have endometriosis as well as multiple cysts, so TOM can be excruciating. I have found, however, that a lot of times working out really helps. It increases circulation, releases endorphins, and now that I am really into lifting, it mentally helps me as well. I have never…

What kind of fitness activities did you do during this dvd? See if you can search by type (pilates, yoga, cardio etc).

50 seconds up from 30 seconds a month or so ago. Forearms/toes.

Calgary, AB!

Try swimming/aqua size. It will put next to no strain on your joints.

High sugar is going to happen, especially when you are still learning your insulin routine. My fiancée is a type 1 as well, and I can tell you from experience, LOW sugar is way worse. Blurry vision, inability to speak, spasms, seizures and possibly a coma. You've only been on insulin for 2 months, you'll get this! You said…

I'm in the same boat, feel free to add me!

If you are feeling frustrated and confused, I would recommend a personal trainer, at least for a short time (if it's in your budget). I did 14 sessions with a trainer, and now that I'm done with her, I am continuing on with my strength training (weight lifting and the like) as well as mixing in cardio and yoga. It can be…

Something about this whole thread strikes me as "troll" just to see what kind of reactions he can get. Dude's name even includes the word "Scumbag".

Feel free to add me as well. I have an open food diary, so feel free to poke around if you like. I'm usually on here a few times a day, so if you ever have a question, feel free to shoot me a note :happy:

Vanilla Hazelnut coffee with a bit of half and half and 1 Splenda :) Does the trick.

Late to the party, but I'm in. In reading some of your stories, one really piqued me. You mention below that you are currently at 22-25% BF and want to get it much lower. As a woman (I assume you are a woman based on your photo) you actually need to have body fat or you risk stopping your period (and possibly other health…

Hi there! The only advice/suggestion I can provide is just keep tracking everything you do. Food and exercise are your two best friends right now. Just have to make sure it's the right foods and in the right portions :) Feel free to add me as a friend. Now that the holidays are over I'm back into full fledged logging mode.…

From my experience (and I had buggered up my knees) try doing squats with a rubber ball between your legs, roughly the size of a soccer ball (or a tad smaller if you are short of stature).

Welcome! 1 lb a week is a totally reasonable goal. All the best!

What is your lower back problem? I have 2 fused vertebrae, so I'm no stranger to lower back problems!

Hi Ashley! I'm 240 lbs (10 lbs down!) and I'm aiming for 170. Feel free to add me if you would like :) Welcome to the club!

I'm in the same boat. Goal is 170, currently at 243. Feel free to add me :smile:
