  • I love Pesto chicken!!! Just take chicken breast and coat it with pesto sauce and bake at 400 for about 25-30 minutes. Oh and make SURE you put foil covering the pan or it will never come off the pan :) And you can also put a little cheese on the chicken after about 25 min of cooking and place back in the oven until the…
  • Well first and foremost, I am praying for your daughter!!! Second, it may actually be beneficial really to be there, it isn't like you will be eating a lot. You will have set, scheduled meal times which can help! I agree with the other people who suggest to bring a laptop, portable DVD player, etc and do workouts in the…
  • Welcome to MFP :) I love it so far!!! It is wonderful reading about the awesome transformations that people have made in their lives!!!
  • I just buy the egg beaters...it is egg whites only. I don't have the patience to try and separate the eggs...haha
  • I have never personally been able to drink diet soda, it gives me the shakes which is really odd. But I gave up regular soda back in January and haven't gone back which is awesome :) I think the reason that diet soda is deemed "bad" for you is because it makes you crave sweets for some reason. Also there isn't really any…
  • I would recommend doing some additional cardio with Shred if you are looking to LOSE weight. I think if you were only looking to tone, you would be okay with just Shred. But when I do it, I average about 300 calories as well but my muscles feel like they had a workout. When I have just done Shred on its own, I do not see a…
  • My story is pretty much the same. I saw myself as overweight and according to the BMI that is what I was considered (barely but I was there). I am 5'4" and I was 160 at my heaviest. Now I know that is not "fat" but to me, and on me, it was. I just finally got tired of my clothes getting tight that I realized I needed to…
  • ok so that's a bad idea - good thing i never bought anything! i'm trying to find something to help me work out more efficiently - if that's possible without just building up endurance. i'm having trouble with the 'weight loss' workout method (low / high / cooldown / repeat). i know i'm out of shape but at the same time i…
  • Two things: 1. Regarding the pills you are taking from GNC...most diet pills don't even start working for about 4 - 6 weeks. So you may not have been taking them long enough to notice a difference. 2. There was just a story on like CNN or something about mixing pills to produce weight loss. I do not remember all the…
  • I started Zumba around the middle of January and that, combined with cutting out soda, helped me lose 12 pounds so far :)

  • Count me in the not every day crowd but there are times I do twice a day. Mondays I have Zumba around lunchtime and then there is another Zumba class at the Y the same day so I do it twice that day. I get up at 5am as it is and in order to get a morning workout in I would have to get up at 430 and I just honestly do not…
  • I am actually focusing first on my cardio...just to burn the weight and fat off...lol. Then I will add more strength. Right now I do Zumba and some Jillian DVDs so I guess Jillian counts as strength :)
  • Woohooo way to go!!!
  • The hardest for me was that damn chair pose with the ??lateral raise?? I don't know the names...lol. But I actually yelled at the TV that time was up already. LOL.
  • I was trying the Nike Musiques and they still hurt my feet so I finally got Asics Gel Fusion 5 and they are awesome!!! They are similar to the Nike Shox just not as expensive :) I got my regular shoe size in them as well and they are great for all the Zumba moves.
  • Mine shipped yesterday so I would love if it would get here tomorrow or Saturday :). I am excited to try it out!
  • If I just have a "cold", like runny nose, coughing, etc. I will still work out, it does not really bother me. If I have an upset stomach, like I got that stomach virus on Feb 16th and I took time off the gym until I felt 100%, which took quite a few days.
  • Hi ladies! I am a fellow military wife :) my husband is in the US Air Force. He is currently in Korea and we are going to Lakenheath in September (unless the AF changes our mind for us). I am looking to get healthy and lose about 15 pounds or so before he comes home on midtour in May. Please feel free to friend me as I…
  • I actually mainly do the live class but doing mainly just Zumba and giving up soda has caused me to lose 12 pounds since the middle of January :). I love it!
