I agree with Heather!! You should enjoy your vacation. Be sensible and don't eat everything in sight, but have some drinks, stay active, and enjoy yourself!! My husband and I are going to NYC in a few weeks and I intend to exercise lots, walk lots, but enjoy myself and have great food and drinks!! Have a wonderful…

I second the osteopath suggestion!! I have been seeing one for my back/hip/legs and he is my hero. He aligns me and centers me and keeps me feeling good!! My joint between my left leg and hip has been bothering me so I am going to mine tomorrow. I highly recommend them. They are like a step up from a chiropractor.

Good for you, that must be such an amazing feeling!! I can't wait to be int he same boat!! Congratulations!! :D

Annnnnnd this is why we are friends.

OMG. I have been caught by a MFP friend of mine...I do this!!

I totally disagree!! I have myself set to sedentary since I work a desk job, so I feel that if I spend four hours cleaning my entire house on a Saturday OR if I just vacuum and tidy up generally for a half hour on a weekday that I can certainly count it. It's not my only exercise by ANY means, and I don't necessarily eat…

All of the above please!! Eric is my ultimate fave, but I have love for Alcide too!! I never thought of him as a butterface!! I think he is foxy. Bill doesn't do it for me!!

You look stunning!! You should be so proud of yourself!! Congratulations on such an incredible weight loss.

You look incredible...and incredibly happy!! Look at the way you have completely changed and made over your body!! You should be SO proud of your accomplishments. Congratulations on your weight loss!! You look so happy!!

We have a Schwinn (not sure of the number off the top of my head) and it was about $800. It is sooooo great!! Great programs, lots of resistance levels, really smooth stride. You definitely need to go check them all out. You need to find one you are comfortable on so that you use it!! :D

This sounds like the beginning of a Law and Order episode. I would be so creeped out!! I would seriously confront him with a big-man-friend in tow and call the cops if he doesn't leave you alone!!

Anyone?? Hahaha!! Now I am not necessarily looking for recommendations because I have Barre3 and The Bar Method DVDs and LOVE them!! Does anyone else do these workouts?? I'd love to have a friend on my list to chat with about them and motivate each other!!

My husband and I are "not NOT trying" to conceive while I lose weight. We'll be happy whenever we get pregnant, but I would like to lose some more weight first ideally. I am going to friend you!!

I do Bar Method and Barre3!! I always do about 15 min on the elliptical before the workout to get my heart rate up and burn some extra calories. I LOVE the workouts!!

You look seriously awesome!! Fit, healthy, toned, skinny but not too skinny...you look hot!! Amazing job!!

You look AWESOME!!!! You're my height and you are at my goal weight right now and you look sooooooo great!! I wonder where you are going to find those other 30 lbs to lose because you look like your after to me already!! Congrats on the amazing loss and I am so happy you have a loving supportive husband!! Mine is amazing…

Update...I did Jillian's Ripped in 30 on Saturday along with 15 min on the elliptical and then my normal 45 min on the elliptical yesterday...I am SORE!! I'm really glad I started to mix it up because I can tell this is going to work!! I'm going to do 15 min on elliptical + Jillian on Saturdays, Mondays, and Wednesdays, 45…

Thanks everyone :). I knew that to be true, but I think I needed some other people telling me so as well... I think I am going to add in the Ripped in 30. Maybe 3x a week on the elliptical, 3x a week Ripped in 30 (maybe + another 15 on the elliptical)?? I feel like I'm in an exercise rut. The elliptical is working well for…

I have this DVD and haven't tried it yet!! I did the 30 day shred for 66 days (I will never forget that number ;D) leading up to our wedding and had really fabulous results with it. I started using MFP and doing the elliptical 4--45 min 5-6x a week about 5 weeks ago. I am definitely losing weight, but I want to kick it up…

I never post on the message boards, but I love to read them ;D. This made me come out of lurkdom. I totally agree with you!! The MFP database normally says I should burn almost 800 calories for my 45 minute elliptical workouts. The machine says I burn about 700, but I estimate it is a bit less than that. I only eat all of…
