Hi Miss_Kris_, It has been a year since I've posted this. A year makes a lot of difference. I'm now post concussion 25/26 months now (over 2 years since my accident). Since posting, I took advice and started on calorie deficit. I cut the carbs and processed food. I lost about 15-20lbs. I focused on more of a diet where I…

When you started running and lifting again, did you still have symptoms? My vision is still funny and not quite back to its normal state. Anyways thanks for the suggestions so far. I'll focus on my intake and log my food as the first step to make sure I don't overeat and continue with a few walks a week or whatever I can…

I should have posted this in the Weight Loss Help section. Womp womp. Can I delete and re-post?

So this is what happens to me. I PMS like crazy and want to eat all the bad foods (greasy, sugary, everything in sight!). And then I'm not motivated to work out. Then I get extra crampy and it sucks!! However, when I force myself to exercise and say NO to my cravings.. and take midol, my cramps are hardly there (still a…

I don't know why i'm worrying - I guess I'm so used to trying to lose weight and have been working so hard that when I come back, I'll just be back at square one and hate myself. =X But I think I'll enjoy myself. And it is true, I forgot that European portions are smaller.

Hm ok, yeah, I just want my feet to be happy! Esp. if i'm there for 5 weeks! Any more suggestions will be nice!

my face, but now my arms. i already know my hips/muffin top/butt/thighs will be the last.. so i'm just focusing on my arm! i know if that goes first, i can worry about the others later! (but im just hoping that i lose some inches in my trouble areas)

i went with my brother and tried to do heavy lifting... sooooo hard for me. i could hardly do 10lbs dumbbells w/8 reps! sheesh. guess i'll have to suck it up and hopefully become stronger!

i'm 5'2" and 120lbs. I dont care for the number. I'm def skinny fat.. have somewhere between 25%-29% bf (based on photos) and trying to get to at least 22-23%. im trying to tone and lose the fat on my hips mostly!

age: 23 height: 5'2 cw: 120 gw: ehh.. dont really care, maybe 115? goal: shed the fat/inches. don't care about number to be honest not sure about bf: probably somewhere between 26-30%? here are my measurements: waist: 28inches hips: 36inches arms: 12inches thighs: 22inches calves: 14inches i'm that pear shape and trying to…

yes i have a gym membership. do you recommend certain machines or free weights routine w/heavier weights? i'm not a very strong person & i actually struggle with 30DS w/3lbs weights (i have to do the modified versions) and i can't do a pull up or even a push up =\ so i kinda started w/30DS to help with that since i hear…

We def. have similar body shape/type! Hope my 30DS turns out like yours! Great job!

Hm okay, I'll look into those!

day 2, level 1 (starting again) - woo.. jillian is tough! wishing it were day 30 lol

holy cow. started level 2 today.. it was INTENSE! the third circut really got me. does this get any easier??

yeah, my last 10 is hard. the body fat thing is also hard too cause i still have a long ways to go. i'm hoping by end of feb that i'm down by 5.

finished day 7. i took a 2 day break last week.. will be out of town tomorrow thru monday.. although im trying to bring my weights with me to do lol. i have a really weak upper body and still can't do the push up (and do the assisted ones) - can anyone help or will it get better??

i'm 5'2 - started at 127 this summer and down to 119. goal weight is set for 110-115 but i'm more focused on losing body fat and toning up!

I'm from San Diego too! Awesome job on your loss. You look great!!

Start weight: 121lbs 12/11 - 119.5 19/11 - not sure.. forgot to record this week. 26/11 - 119lbs 03/12 - 119-119.5 .. no loss this week :( 10/12 - 17/12 - 24/12 -

Woops a bit behind. Goal of 5lbs maybe reachable but I don't have much to lose. Another 9lbs left to lose total and doing strength and weight training. So we'll see! Start weight: 121lbs 12/11 - 119.5 19/11 - not sure.. forgot to record this week. 26/11 - 119lbs 03/12 - 10/12 - 17/12 - 24/12 -

I did my first day and these were the hardest! It wasnt even the lunge part (I have pretty strong legs) but the arm raise with the lunges. My arms are about to fall off!

starting it sometime this week! probably wednesday. how many lb weights are we supposed to use? 3lbs? 5lbs?

this is almost me! size 2-5 depending on brand. wanna lose a bit of fat in my hips but dont wanna lose the butt or the boobs!

bump.. reading later

i'm 5'2 and have 14.5 inch calves.. i really want to lose my body fat weight and hope even losing 1 inch will help me find boots that fit!

ive been doing the calorie deficit thing. i'm trying to do more weight/strength training.. do you have any suggestions for beginners?? maybe i'm not doing enough. and i really do need protein but i'm not much of a meat eater. my brother did suggest some whey protein that he's using to bulk up but not sure if that will help…

mine are major between the hips and thighs. thanks for the tips. i'm hoping i lose fat in my toughest spot (hips)

i have these too.. i dont know how to get rid of them. i'm hoping diet and exercise will help if i lose the fat? but i'm already tiny as it is..
