Chili :D I mean....totally something not high in sodium / calories / won't make you fart ........>_>

I had a sausage, egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel from dunkin donuts this morning...talk about TERRIBLE! Lol but it took me entering it into my food plan to see really how bad it was. I don't regret eating it - but now I'm armed with the knowledge of what I am doing and I can make an informed decision if I…

I love the direction this thread has taken XD I think cardio is a little too intense for me, atleast for right now because I am not used to an exercise routine. I will do yoga, stretches and do weights..As for the eating, I've found a few different snacks that take my pain (hunger) away....pickles are my salty crunchy go…

My favorite are pickles...very few calories (like 5 a piece I think?) and they are salty and have a crunch...it is my alternative to pretzels / chips :)

Hi Michelle! It sounds like you live a busy life style! If you don't mind me asking, what kind of work do you do? Some tips that help squeeze in a little more exercise each day that I've found....park far away from the door (if you drive). Making yourself walk a little further to and from your car counts! Take the stairs…

Ok so I kind of skimped...but it was my first workout in over 3 weeks!!!! I worked my butt off though and I'm covered in sweat. I got really into the music and got up to 5 mph for a minute whoooo!! I am going to try interval speeds because I've read that helps boost metabolism? Also I get really bored if I stay at the same…

Thank you everyone for all the support and information! My attitude has changed quite a bit in the past few hours. I am just about to hop on my treadmill and do my first official workout. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. I'll be back in 20+ minutes to let you know how it goes!

Thunder thighs! I was so hurt at first, but my mom taught me to keep composed. I ended up just smiling and saying "Hey Kyle!" every time he called me by that. Eventually he stopped and we even became semi-friends.

This may or may not be related but I watched it today and it was a great inspiration to me. I hope others find it motivating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXw3taqguiM

I have a family friend who is also not eating carbs past 2 pm. He said that was the only change he made and he has lost 45 lbs total. I will add this to one of my list of changes to make (Not all at once, but good to refer back to)

I have my treadmill in my room facing out my window. We have a nice backyard facing into a forest, so I very much enjoy the view. It is also within viewing distance of my computer, so sometimes I like to turn on television shows and watch them while I work out. Watching tv shows takes my mind off of working out and usually…

Runners are indeed a special kind of people...I have so much respect for it. I one time for fun tried running on the treadmill (Well, I put it to 6 mph) and lasted all about 2 minutes...still proud of myself for that but I do get winded / out of breath very quickly. I LOVE swimming but I do not have easy access to a…

I recently read a book for a marketing class and it taught me the law of 1%....even though it was about customer service..I think it can apply to anything. The law states that if you can improve every day, even if it's just by 1%....you are improving. Like everyone said, if every day I can change 1 thing to make myself…

I am so afraid of Jillian Michael it is not funny..I do not do well under pressure or getting yelled at / pushed...I am one of those "I need to go at my own pace and I will push myself" people. My boyfriend and I are both trying to lose weight together (He has way less than I do) but he is very supportive. At first he was…

With every post my smile gets bigger and I feel more confident. I feel like other than getting myself actually on the treadmill, it will be my eating that is the biggest challenge. Once I get motivated to put on my running shoes and get on the treadmill I am able to complete a workout..but it is the mindless binging that…

Thanks Lacey, I will check those out! How do you guys get the tickers on your posts? i would like to get a tracker for myself...100 lbs exactly to lose

Everyone seems very friendly here. The good news is that a few months ago I bought myself a treadmill (I don't like working out outside or in a gym) so I do have the tools...I don't know how to cook at all so I usually just rely on microwavable processed foods...I know that so many health problems that I have (Constant…
