Busy day Brenda! Great job … and yes I love having to report in :smile: How long have you been doing JMBR? I have it (been keeping my kettle bell company in the basement). I was able to do weeks 1 and 2, but sets 3 and 4 seemed impossible. I suppose I could have done them even if I only got 1 or 2 of the exercises in,…

I just ordered Isopure Zero Carb protein shake. 2 scoops is 210 calories, 1 fat, 50 protein. I'm thinking I may do 1 scoop and still get plenty protein w/less calories. I won't receiving it until late this week, but I will definitely let you know how it is. I found it at GNC.

Holy Moly - now I know why they say the kettle bell is a good workout. Wow! I ended going to 3 lb weight as there was no way my kettle bell and I would have made it. But …. I did the whole workout so that makes me happy. Again … thank you all as this accountability is keeping me going. Yes, StephneR we'd love C25K tips!…

Hi Hope, definitely had loss of energy my first 3-5 days; not the upset stomach though. What is your protein/carb/fat ratio? How much water are you taking? If you are hungry, eat carrots - even if it puts you over the calories for day. Seriously, did anyone get overweight eating carrots? :) If you share want to share your…

Add your "long walk" to the topic "Today I Will______" to keep your daily goals in check with us all. Today's the first day to start and glad you are doing it with us!

Please post Jo would love to read

Morning friends! Great job yesterday and good goals today! I love the ideas of cooking and preparing food for week makes temptations less hard!! Jetta's 2 hr walk is awesome! I have a huge hill near me and never once in 4 yrs of living here went that route so I'm ding that for a goal this week! Today is for us (during me a…

Great idea! I like doing Friday - if all agree. Here is my theory. M-T we are good while at work. Friday we weigh in and feel good about ourselves --- helps motivate to do good over the weekend and keep the movement going. If you don't want to put your weight down, just put -1, 0 or +1. If you want to put beginning,…

Congrarts to all of us who did our goal for today. And seriously….THANK YOU! I know I would have not started the C25K if I hadn't had to report back to you all. Every excuse possible would have popped in my head: oh it's going to rain. i'll go after dinner. it's too dark. i'll do it tomorrow ….and many more! So Thank You!…

Welcome to all the new lady friends - glad you joined us!

Thanks Emy and lpeltenburg - the extra boost to get there is great! Good luck to both of you in your challenge for the day! Can't wait to hear tonight how it worked. Emy, do 1 or 2 push ups. A bit back I couldn't do more than 2 - I did Jillian Michaels Shred and I am now up to 18 straight and on a good day can fit more in.…

Congrats on the clothes lpeltenburg! You are almost there! Can't wait til June comes and you can tell us you did it!!!!

We got busy today - that is great!!! Welcome everyone. Nice to find active friends our age and experiencing the same struggles with weight after 40. Not that I'm saying it's nice that we have THAT in common :) Keep checking in … posting …. and motivating us all! I will be doing the same. Nite … see you tomorrow!

Welcome new lady friends! Looking forward to catching up on everyone tonight - doing yard work and ran in for a drink (and some posts!). Back I go...

Great motivation with the jeans! It's a reward worth trying for.

Cyndi - there is Splenda sucralose in it. Their website is moninstore (com) -- abbreviating so post doesn't go to spam.

HI Beth, Emy, Jo & Jetta! Nice to meet you :smile: Just peeking in to see our new friends … so excited we are able to group and share. Beth, I agree our winter has been horrific and is so nice to be able to start getting outside!! Emy, would love to hear more about the Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle Book and the workouts -…

It definitely works. Just made my son and his friends french toast, eggs, bacon and sausage - breakfast of temptation! I had egg white and turkey sausage. 1 piece of french toast left offer and my son offered it to me. I looked at the picture and the french toast and said "I can't." Then I changed it to "I chose not to." I…

Welcome Arya67! Love your image - I always feel that way when I'm jogging (or pretending to jog!). Looking forward to getting to know you and others soon!

I weigh in the same way (after peeing/before shower). However, this past week I've weighed before and after shower, and each time AFTER the shower I was .5 lbs with wet hair and all!

Does this group do challenges or weekly checks? Would be great to stay on track!

Have been a MFP viewer for months now, but have decided to join to give and get support! I'm 44 and looking to lose 40 lbs by the holidays.

It happens. Just catch yourself before you completely fall. Water, apple, veggies/hummus, popcorn are filling options. Day is more than 1/2 way over - you will make it!!!
