The way I am currently feeling, the increase in energy, and I am not going to lie I like the fact that I have to pull my pants up regularly 8-)

we have used cans milk jugs with water for weights

congratulations, don't worry about gaining take care of your self and the baby.

I eat before every work out and then protein (drink or snack) after. I eat at least 30 min prior to my work out less can make me a bit ill.

Sounds good I can post my weight and measurements on Tuesdays

Your not alone, I am up and off to the gym by 430am, its tough but if i don't go in the morning I won't go after work. Its better now that I have made some morning friends, if I miss a day they call me on it. Keep up the good work, morning workouts are the best way for me to start my day I have so much energy throughout…

stay out of the gym, take it easy, you will recover much quicker and won't pass the illness to others, who will later reinfect you.

I also am a comfort eater. I have found that going to the gym first thing in the morning 4am for me, and working out hard, sticks with me and I hate getting up earlier and don't care for a hour of cardio even more, so I just remember how it felt and that I will eventually not have to do this if I don't comfort eat. Its…

Well after getting off track, then planing on getting back on, I have finally refocused. Happy to say I am watching what I eat again and hitting the gym as much as possible with work. Hows every one else doing? I can say that I am excited to weigh in on Tuesday (we like to weigh in with the biggest loser show) Hoping for a…

How is every one else doing? I haven't made the gym but got the diet back on track and have gotten more mobile (less couch time). Hoping to see the 200's tomorrow when I check in.

check your activity level, are you more active now? You could up your "job or activity" level. If your still losing weight and eating more calories, you fine your just doing more now that summer came. I also find Apples a great snack, good for engery with the natrural suger and fiber. Carrots or apples are my mid morning…

Look for deals, its summer the gyms drop their prices, wave registraton fees... I just saw a groupon (internet coupoun) for Snap fitness in my area $30.oo for three months, 10 bucks is verry cheep. I also ask my gym for a break in price at summer as I use it less, they don't want to see you leave for the summer as many do

1 stop planing to fail 2 just do it and you will see the results 3 one day of "cheating" will erase a weeks worth the work "Do or do not their is no try" ~Yoda

Its tough, eat what you know you should, BE the example. They will all join in and I am sure they want you to live a long healthy life. I have the same isues but I useualy fold because my wife is such an awsome cook, so I have to go to the gym 2x a day just to stay under my calorie count for the day.

go up and down the stairs

Its shap, its in my knees. I would call it debilitating all I want to do is sit with my feet up, and they still hurt. I may need to wait till I lose some more weight before I do all the jumping around. I don't know I just know I miss the gym when I don't go and I also eat wrose when I am in pain as I am a comfort eater...…

I use the protein shakes, as well as I have to still take 2 iron pills which I take in the morning. Most womans vitiams include Iron also.

I have a similar situation, as I am a carpenter, and some days I run from morning to night, then others I am staining, doing paper work ext… I just trust my body and if I am having a busier then average day I have a little extra food, a piece of lunch meat, or a small amount of nuts. I watch my calories more on my sanitary…

Merilax, every night, will keep you moving. Popcorn :-)

I have bad knee's and shin splints, I don't get pain with the eliptical's, try those or stay on level ground may help you it works for me good luck and keep going :- 0

Welcome, I think you will love this site, I do.

Just make the choice drink the water, if you need a little flavor toss a lemon wedge in it.

I use whey protein after a workout, if I drink it prior it makes me ill. Maybe give that a try. Good luck :-)
