I just started and I am eating about 2300 cals a day. I lift heavy 2 days a week and lighter 3 days. I do 30 minutes of cardio 4 days a week and usually not on my heavy days. I have a long way to go, but I am 2 weeks in and though the scale only shows a loss of 4 lb loss, most of it was pure fat and I have lost crazy…

mm, nurse!

gorgeous smile!

You can't leave the chest strap and the transmitter connected! It drains the battery! And just make sure you wet the strap thoroughly each time. I always left mine connected and killed the battery, but Polar sent me a new one! And you can always reset the transmitter by taking the battery out & letting it sit for at least…

Two of my favorites: Under and Over it by Five Finger Death Punch OR Brickhouse by Rob Zombie & Lil' Kim

I was watching the news as a kid with my parents and heard a story about a serial killer in our area. So I heard CEREAL, like my favorite breakfast item, and thought that someone was killing people who ate cereal. I was terrified and devastated :embarassed:

Congratulations! It is a great feeling! But yeah, it is crazy. I previously lost 45 pounds and only dropped one, maybe two, jean sizes and only one shirt size.

Oh something I have learned that made a world of difference to me … If I don't use the whole avocado I keep the seed and nestle it back in place & put the avocado in a ziplock bag & refrigerate it. Gives me like 36 hours to use it.

Avocado is good with practically everything. I will cut in half & put an egg in where the seed was & bake it. I spread it on toast and eat it with an egg. I dice it & eat it with cottage cheese. I eat it alone w/ a little pepper. I put slices on my burgers, chicken, etc. One of my favorites though is to make chicken salad…

I am not saying it isn't worth the calories, but I just found out that one of my favorite beers, Golden Monkey by Victory Brewing Co., is 270 calories per 12 oz. :sad: :brokenheart: :cry:

I am so glad you posted this! I am curious as well! I've always wanted to get it done.

I am doing this as well. I don't think it is too much. My only suggestion is to not limit your rest day to Sunday. Listen to your body. But you will most likely be really sore from JM for a few days! It really gets better, stick with it!

Ugh, me too girl.

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing!

I stopped eating meat around the same time too. Thankfully I had a mother much like you who supported me every way she could. I remember her buying a book entitled "Being Vegetarian for Dummies". Silly as it sounds, it helped A LOT. My family is not very … cultured, I guess is the word. They eat meat, bland veggie &…

Exactly! Something about seeing it all written out & that big red number at the bottom makes me realize it isn't worth it. It really isn't making me feel better!

They all sound delicious, but I think I would go with number 4!

Feel free to add me! I am doing the 30 Day Shred now. As for logging it, until you can get a HRM, it was recommended to me to log it as Circuit Training for 20 minutes! Just remember MyFitnessPal tends to overestimate calories burned.

Try Lane Bryant or Torrid. They offer different style jeans in different fits. They go from size 12 to idk what & offer them in short to extra tall. You have to go and try on all the different fits. Don't just pick the one you think sounds most like you & when it doesn't work give up. You'll probably be surprised at which…

Does your distributor offer packages? When I first started my distributor had packages available. The beginner, kick start package had a Formula One (whatever flavor you want), Protein Daily Meal (vanilla or chocolate), Herbal Tea Concentrate, Multivitamin, Total Control Vitamin & Celluloss. I was also given a packet of…

How is everyone doing?!

What's the worst part for every one? I personally hate the push ups and bicycle crunches! On level one that is :)

I did Day 2 today! Feel free to add me. I am doing it along with running though & have a schedule so I am including rest days, FYI!

I am sensing a theme here and that is no cotton! And I am pretty sure they fit properly. I am comfortable in them. The blister is below my toes on the inside of my foot. I think it is a combination of bad socks & running on my toes or I guess you'd call it the ball of my foot?

First off, congratulations on your success so far! Emotional eating is a big problem for me. What I try to do is stay out of the kitchen! Then I will go for a walk or clean something until it passes. This works if I am at home. If I am stuck at work I luckily don't have much access to anything working nights at a hospital…

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? By Mindy Kaling … I laughed out loud practically the entire time I was reading it!

I am actually not sure … I never asked! I am going next week so I will have to ask him. I am also going to ask him about Armour & eliminating Gluten & Dairy. I have a lot of digestive problems and I wonder if that will help.

Herbalife has had the opposite effect on me. Are you eating enough in between shakes and for dinner to sustain your workouts?

Wow, awesome job ladies! I am about 24 years young &5'9" & currently 212 pounds, looking to be about 150-5 pounds (based on my athletic high school self).
