It all depends on how much you put into and what path you take. I've been doing the Lean 90X program and I've lost around 15 lbs with it, but I've been building muscle at the same time. A big key is to follow the nutrition guide.

Welcome and feel free to add me if you would like some encouragement. I take one day off per week and it's usually Sunday. Though I've been trying to do something active everyday.

Welcome! Good to have you here! :smile:

I have a Timex one which I like with the chest strap. A lot of people here recommend the Polar products which my treadmill has built in. The chest strap is a little uncomfortable at first but you get used to it and you can always loosen or tighten it as necessary. The chest strap is waterproof so you can rinse it off,…

I notice when my wife loses weight, and I compliment her all the time. I guess it all depends the man and how often they see you. If it's gradual, it might not be as noticeable as someone who hasn't seen you in a while.

I'll have to agree P90X is the best one I've used so far. You might be able to get a used copy from ebay for fairly cheaply.

Good job! You're very inspirational. Keep up the great work!

You look great! Keep up the great work!

Happy birthday!

Welcome and best wishes on your journey! I offer lots of encouragement to all my friends, so send me a friend request if you're interested. :smile:

My suggestion is to try them all, and stick with the ones you love. Mix it up every now and again. That way you don't get bored.

Looking good Kim! :smile:

It varies from person to person and also how fast you lose weight and if you lose 100 pounds or more. My sister-in-law who had the lap band surgery and lost around 200 lbs was told by her doctor that her loose skin will eventually tighten back up but it might take around 2 years since she lost so much weight.

Hello and welcome. It's a great site for helping you meet your goals. Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like some support. :smile:

That's awesome! Such a big difference in only 14lbs. Great job, you're looking good.

Yes P90X works. If you do an hour or more a day of intense exercise for 6 days a week of anything, you'll burn a lot of calories.

Good job!

I use this site to see what my best options are at restaurants. It's meant for weight watchers, but it also lists the calories, fat, etc. I hope it helps: http://www.exercise4weightloss.com/weight-watchers-points.html

Great job! I can't wait to get there myself. :smile:

Welcome Luisa! Good to have you here. I'm not quite your body type (male, 6', 230+ lbs) but I'll send you a friend request anyway if you'd like some support. Have a great day! :smile:

Welcome Kelly! I'm a fellow P90Xer myself. Week 8 (recovery week) of the P90X Lean Workout. I've found it to work wonders for my strength and stamina. I'll send you a friend request, if you'd like to add me. :smile:

I've read up on this because of my own issues. What works for me is lotioning my feet. I like to use an aloe vera lotion. I usually wear two pair of running socks also when running. I like to make sure there are no weak spots in the socks which tend to cause my blisters. I've heard you can buy lubricants at running stores…

Congrats! It's a great feeling. I just caught the bug myself. Now I'm running sub 30 minute times. Keep at it, you'll keep improving.

Thanks!

Runners World has a running shoe finder on the front page. http://www.runnersworld.com/

Good job! You look wonderful!

If your machine has a HRM then it might be about as accurate, but otherwise I would trust the stand alone HRM.

That's excellent! Good job! :smile:

I use my forerunner 305 all the time. It's great. I'm running a 5K tonight and will be using it then.
