  • The place I work out at has different classes. On Tuesdays I do boot camps. My first boot camp I did, I was pumped. I felt so good, like woah - I did some pretty amazing stuff! The next week I was amped to go and do it again. And it SUCKED. I felt like every exercise we were doing I couldn't do it right. My form was off, I…

  • In the first 3/4 weeks of doing this (working out 4X a week, eating 1,300 cals) - I gained 1.5lbs! But after 6 weeks - even though I only lost 4lbs over all, I had lost 1.5 inches off my waist, and 1/2 an inch off my arms and hips. What I keep telling myself is this - weight is not the end all, be all, of progress. Take…

  • 35 Top Hits - Workout mixes. I like vol. 6 but others are okay. And then Five Decades of 80's (90's/70's/60's) Rock. Those are pretty awesome workout mixes.

  • When my boyfriend first lost all his weight (not 100% sure how much - i'd say roughly....80ish-100lbs) he would allow himself one cheat night a week. He'd go to a restaurant and get a cheeseburger and a bunch of fries and have a few beers. Slowly, after the first few months, he said he stopped wanting and/or needing that…

  • HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH? HW: (that i know of): 156 LW: 120ish (for a brief period after being sick with the flu for a month) CW: 153 GW: 130-135. I felt my best at this weight range! I'm big chested, so I'm not sure I could weigh less than this (but we'll see). Even at my lowest weight I was still a D cup! HOW TALL ARE YOU?…

  • I was having the same issue. Found this article online: "It's true that many people either gain a little weight or don't see any change on the scale for as long as 4-6 weeks after making a significant change in their level of exercise. This is often explained as "gaining muscle while losing fat" but that isn't quite…

  • I get Angie's Boom Chicka Pop popcorn. 4 cups is 140 calories! It's just enough to help me when I'm craving something to snack on!

  • I meant with exercise, sorry should have been more clear :) I still log on the weekends and try to not go over 1,300 cals since I'm not working out on those days!

  • Ideally, I would like to lose 25 pounds, but I would be okay with 20! I don't drink anything other than water - with the exception of one can of diet dr pepper with dinner. I haven't weighed my food - I should probably get a scale to make sure my guesstimates are more accurate! They took our measurements on the first…
