Hey if you're still around add me. I live in the springs outside gait 3 of Carson. Would love a workout pal.

All please feel free to add me. I need more supportive and motivating friends. I feel like if I ate nothing but cupcakes none of my friends would notice via they never check on me.

Add me if you need support I do too. I fell off the wagon and gained 10 lbs back when I was only 10 away from goal. Now I have 20 to go again. :(

I also do strong lifts or the 5x5 app. I love it because it tracks your rest times, weights, and sets. You don't have to plan anything it's all done for you even tells you what to increase for next workout. I know quite a few people who have done it and made great progress. It's great for starting out. Lots of combo…

Yurbuds work great. They will send you custom ear pieces that fit your ear if you send them a pic. Super easy. And they are not horribly expensive.

I added a couple of you but anyone else feel free to add me as well. I am a very busy mom with a one year old 29 years old. Hubby is in the army and is deployed often so I need motivating friends to keep me on track and consistant. I did insanity a while back and did great. Still not where I want to be long term so lots of…

Add me! New mom of 1 boy 12 weeks post partum.

I did my first round of Insanity almost a year ago and lost about 15lbs. Ive just started my second round this monday so im looking for motivated friens if anyone is interested add me!

Its worth it if you stick with it!!! Its hard some days because you are so sore but dont quit. Just work through as you are able to. Dont forget to take your before and after pics.

Feel free to add me as a friend if you are motivated i need more people who are active and have similar goals/similar motivation. my stats: SW 160 CW 148 STG: 125 LTG: 115 Right now im doing Insanity (for the second time). And when I finish I will go back to lifting and some cardio.

My short term is 125. Ultimately i think i could get down to 115 but im not sure yet.

I wish you great luck on your journey! With that attitude you will have a much better road to travel. Try to keep this exact post in your thoughts when you start to struggle (because you will...we all do at some point). I cant wait to see your progress!

You had me at the Orange Headband your sporting in your pic. :D

Im 4'11" started at 160lbs at 138lbs now and goal is 125lbs. Good luck everyone we cant do it!

BTW the calories burned it will tell you is WAAAAAY to high for what you actually burn. if you want to know your calories keep track of your heart rate and calcualte it. even that is an estimate just go off of your exhertion level.

I have Zumba Rush for Kinect and love it. I dont use it for my regular workout just once and a while when i need to get something in but cant make it to the gym or dont want to run. But it makes me sweat! lots of programs so there are different fitness levels.

inspiring! you are just 2 inches taller than me and your start weight and goal are the same as mine! I started at 161 and goal is 125. Im at 138 right now. Great job girl!

AWESOME REWARD! myself. I am going for a sexy photoshoot for my husband

by the way a question is easily spotted by the "?" at the end of the sentence. if there isn't one there...there is no question.

Thank you ^^^^ abbabtlm. There was no question here about if cardio AND lifting was a good choice. SHE ALREADY KNOWS THAT!!! SHES DOING IT ALREADY!!! My point again...she asked about counting calories while lifting. She simply continued and explained what she is doing. You answered a non existent question playing it off as…

You said ORIGINAL question...Original meaning belonging or pertaining to the origin or beginning of something. so the original post was "Is there any surefire way to count the calories that you burn while lifting?"

Um....actually that was not the original question either....so way to lose topic yourself. the original question was how to calculate calories WHILE lifting. not what burns more lifting or cardio. Being an "Army Medic" hasnt helped with attention to detail i see.

Bahahahahahaha! Amazing! You can increase your heart rate simply by breathing faster sitting at a desk too... what drmerc is saying is that HR ALONE is not enough to indicate how many calories you are burning. *not trying to put words in your mouth. Even with a HR monitor you are still estimating how many calories you are…

IM IN!

agreed new rules of lifting is great. Thats how i got started and im addicted to lifting. BodyBuilding.com is also great. I loved having the website to look at at home and the book to have with me at the gym my first few times.

I'm in!!!! SW: 160 CW: 142 GW: 125 Whoop whoop!

my office is getting a card and a bottle of Kettle One Vodka lol. Our office is awesome. And so is our boss.:drinker:

I LOVE megans bay...you have to visit it. Best beach in the VI.

Yes! I also have this issue. And you know what i do? i let them go. I am trying to change my body and my life and i am not going to sit here and listen to people complain about everything they do but not be willing to change it. I used to be one of those people i will be the first to admit it. But i am trying now and doing…

i wouldnt say im excited...or that im dreading it. LOL im actually really nervous for the holidays. I do look at this as a lifestyle change and I am going to try my hardest to stick to my calorie goals and not go overboard. HOWEVER...i know that is going to be extreemly difficult for me to achieve. I LOVE food. I will be…
