You can tell which of you skim and which actually read the post. OP Didn't LOG (food or exercise) for the 4 days, "I did log in...for the 4 days" This has happened to me too. I log in from my phone, but I don't log anything, streak ruined.

I use Zombies, Run! with a playlist OR just listen to music. Using earbuds I can hear more than I would be able to in the car for example. I'm in a cover band so I'm able to pick apart what each instrument is doing and that keeps me preoccupied so that sometimes I forget that I'm running.

I walk on my rest day:wink:

I have it. It's pretty cool, like a live action video game if you really get into it. I set it up with WinAmp so I can listen to music in between the dialog.

When you're sore the next day, DO NOT QUIT! Keep those muscles working!

I was getting the shot for almost 3 years and gain 50 lbs. I also stopped working out and ate everything. I'm working on getting it back off now. When I do get my period, it's really heavy and painful so I was considering going back on the shot because it stopped my period completely. I talked to the OBGYN about this and…

Agreed! Even though it took me what seemed like forever to get the scale to move, my body isn't so soft anymore. I wish I would have measured things before I started but I can tell my arm fat is decreasing, my legs and butt don't have so much cellulite and my stomach is getting flatter. Woo!!! :happy:

I just got a Fitbit Flex last weekend and I love it! It's really shown me how little I do while I'm at work so I try to make an effort to move around more, park further away at the store, take the long way around etc. so I can meet my daily step goal!

I'm neither engaged, nor am I in a relationship, but I may one day be a bride-to-be so I'm hoping I'm already in the shape I want to be in by then :laugh:

Laugh off her stupid comments and focus on your goals. What she says should be taken with a grain of salt anyway. When you're ready to get serious about losing weight let her know as she shoves a cupcake in her mouth? Pffffft!! Do your thing, girl. :flowerforyou:

bumping for future reference!

You could cut water weight I guess. You'll gain it back right after the weigh in though. Just be safe about it:smile:

With so little weight to lose it might take a bit for the scale to move. Be proud of your NSV's. You'll probably start seeing a change in your physical appearance if you haven't already. If that's the case you may be replacing fat with muscle which would probably prevent the scale from moving. I've learned not to worry so…

I have a fitbit flex!

I LOVE to eat:drinker:

When I lost 80lbs I went from a size 8 to a size 6.5! I thought it was odd but I guess not:tongue:

bumping for more insight Also I think I'm developing plantar fasciitis in the same foot. Are these related?

This is what I don't like. I used to go religiously for a year but I didn't feel like I was burning enough calories and I didn't have an extra hour to go do another workout. You work fast and hard for a good 10-15 minutes maybe and you'll sweat a bunch, but the rest of the time you're working on technique and not really…

Fun fact: Doctors in the 1800s used to perscribe chocolate as a cure for a broken heart. Have your chocolate indulgence for just a day. Then you better work that *kitten* off!!! Turn that sadness into anger and punch the hell out of a bag you pretend is his stupid head. Haha

I don't take pre-workouts all the time, but when I do need an extra kick in the pants when I'm really feeling like skipping my workout, I've taken N.O. Xplode, Jack3d, and C4 which all work great for me (though the old Jack3d formula made me jittery if I had some on an empty stomach). I'd probably have to drink 2 pots of…

It's very much worth it if you get the chance to read it. Amazing transformation in your outlook on life and of course, your appearance!

adding! anyone else feel free to add as well :)

I just ordered some Altra running shoes but I wear them to kettlebell and circuit as well. I love them because they have a wide toe box and I have wide feet. You can tell it has a more natural shape than your typical workout shoes.

I laughed out loud at this!

Focusing on fitness doesn't mean pushing aside everything else. I did that for awhile, what a horrible decision. I didn't even want to go out to dinner with my family and friends for my own birthday cause I just wanted to go to the gym. Never again. Try to balance Faith, Family, Friends, Finance and Fitness :)

I think both are guesses really. The app can't tell for sure the amount of calories burned unless it has all your stats too. The best way to know the exact calories burned is to get a heart rate monitor.

I'll usually wear higher waisted yoga pants and a cut up baggy tshirt that falls off the shoulders. My shoulders and traps are pretty toned but my arms and stomach, not so much yet. Accentuating what you like while covering what you don't gives you the confidence to do real work at the gym and not focus on hiding your…
