I'm in! I love walking and need accountability ...I mean even if you step out side and walk around the block.. Oh something I recently did was download a MP3 album that is for walking. It is 60 minutes of walking briskly. So if you want you can download enough songs on your phone or whatever and walk till they are…

Wow, it's like with those 40 lbs you also took away 10 yrs. You look like a teenager in the goal pic LOL ..please take that as a compliment. I'm 6 lbs from goal and I can't wait to post goal pics. Great job! P.S. Zig Zagging has really helped me in so many ways. Nichole

Well since I'm losing at about a pound a week and I need 6 more lbs I might actually hit goal and the challenge! that would be a great Christmas present to myself! Have a great Sunday. God Bless

Whew, been busy for the last week or so. Did not eat one piece of candy for halloween and well that's not a really big deal since sweets were never my evil carb of choice. Now if they had been giving out little cups of mac n cheese or mashed potatos and gravy I'd have been in trouble LOL no j/k. Well, my son's wedding day…

HI all, Yesterday was my 38th birthday also. I had a good day with family and my friends at work made me a low cal desert instead of buying a heavy bday cake. They got the little sponge cake shells and some fresh strawberries and lite cool whip. They put splenda in the strawberries and I had a little strawberry shortcake.…

Glad you asked this because I thought there was something really wrong with me. I was like..food..food..I need food LOL. The days I don't exercise i have to force myself to eat. It's insane!

Just wanted to say I bought the game...I have done the three songs..very very badly and I found the sweat option (XboxKinect) and there is no 7 day challenge anywhere to be found, I am enjoying doing this with my kids so that is what counts. I just wanted to make sure you know I did try to do it. I do have scores ..have no…

HI, all. Crazy weekend and chinese food has me all bloated. Very light day yesterday because we were out late with the trick or treating. Got a lot of walking in that is for sure. Another light eating day for me today. Hoping for losses for us all! Have a great evening. Nichole

HI everyone. Glad I found the thread. I'm Nichole, (SouLThinking) is my poetry pen name. I just use it for all online accounts. I'll be 38 next week yikes! I'm probably the oldest 38 yr old you know though because I have 3 boys., The oldest is get this about to be 22 yrs old! Yes I was 16. But the best thing is I raised…

Week 1, 9/29: 147.2 Week 2, 10/6: 146.2 Week 3 10/13: 145 Week 4, 10/20: 143.8 Week 5, 10/27: 143.0 Week 6, 11/3: Week 7, 11/10: Week 8, 11/17: Week 9, 11/24 Have a blessed day all! I need 8 more lbs for my goal...

I just discovered mine a few weeks ago. I was like wow! I had bones under there! It's an awesome feeling isn't it?

I'm 5' 4" ..and 142-144...I am now needing to net about 1450 per day to lose steadily. I'm currently calorie cycling or zig zagging so some days are lower some days are higher but my weekly average is the 1450. When I was heavier ..95 lbs ago ..I could eat 1800 and lose weight. So it really depends on your current size and…

Today felt very strange..it was my highest cal day of the week. almost 1700. I got pretty close but am so full. I am not used to eating that much food anymore. I"m almost relieved tomorrow is back down to 1457. But, it's also TOM time so I'm already feeling crabby. I'll post again come Sunday's weigh in. Have a blessed…

Maybe a dumb question but are the options the same for the XBox Kinect? I have the Kinect and wanted this game as soon as I saw it advertised. My kids do it with me. So if I have this version can I join??

thank you! I keep trying to tell myself not to hang up on the number. It's getting better. :)

I am 8 lbs to goal of 135. But my ultimate goal would be 130 so Yes count me in. even if I lose 10 lbs then it would be 133 yay! So we weigh in the 28th? which is Friday? Then come back and post every Friday? Hope I got that right! Good luck everyone!

Great job. Keep up the great work! You are so worth it! God Bless

Eat more protein, less processed carbs (sugar, boxed carbs..you know) Protein helps with the muscle your building and also burns fat. So, try that and remember measure! get a piece of rope if you don't have a measuring tape (flexible kind--I know you have the regular cuz of your job LOL) but get the rope and mark with a…

Began at 20 net carbs 7 yrs ago. Worked my way up the carb ladder (meaning whole grains and good carbs) and I'm now at 130 to 150 grms a day and I am still happily losing. 8 lbs to goal. So if you do it right....which means you never ever ever go back to eating tons of white processed carbs you will not gain it back. Only…

I started entering the weight it gave me in my notes at the bottom and yes mine is pretty accurate. I only care if it's less than what I weigh now LOL so as long as it says I am eating to where I will lose that's good enough for me. It was just a nice bonus to go back 5 weeks and see it was pretty accurate. Now that I"m…

day 1 of week 2 and I'm telling you I feel better ..it's like my body isn't bored LOL I won't log it but I was down even a few more ounces this morning. It may be ounces but they add up to lbs..so if I lose ounces daily I'm gonna lose a pound before I know it LOL. my mini goal is 5 lbs by 11/3 my 38th birthday I'd be 138…

Anyone else at the pre-maintenance level? I am still learning so much about my body and it's needs and abilities. Just wondering who all is close to goal after losing a lot? Hope your all having an awesome evening. Rode bikes with my kids tonight. Very big NSV for me. I have had the lowest self esteem for so many years and…

it does seem confusing but basically your fat loss calorie's average at the end of the week as the same as if you eat the same amount everyday. I know that you can do the extreme fat loss if you have more than about 50 lbs to lose. I am trying for the regular fat loss and hoping I can trick these last 8 lbs off of me. LOL.…

berries have to be my favorite fruit! I love strawberries just sliced up in a cup ..sometimes plain sometimes with some splenda sprinkled on top. Talk about yummy and so low cal and good carbs. I need to go to the store LOL

http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm# This is the site that gave me my zig zag calories. I'm upping my exercise too which I've never been one for that ...it's time after 95 lbs lost..better late than never!

Week one zig zag done and I'm going for another week. I lost 1.5 lbs ..I usually lose about 1 lb every 10 days. So it's definitely doing something. Post again in 7 days. Have a blessed week. Nichole

You have to find the right level for you. If you have no issues eating carbs (crashes, blood sugar problems, food cravings) then your probably not insulin resistant. I worked my way from 20 net carbs to now ranging 100-150 a day. I am still losing but I do have to keep my calories in check. Each person should find what…

Don't worry about it. Just do what's right for you. Having said that make sure your not constantly talking about how many calories your eating or comparing other peoples foods. I think I encountered this for a while only because it pointed out how many calories others were eating and it made them feel bad. I just eat what…
