I prefer going for a long mountain bike or road ride. then it is outdoor jogging and then anything cardio in the gym. and yes intensity varies depending on activity and duration of said activity.. if it is only a 30 minute mtb ride then i go all out all thirty vs if it is a 3 hour ride then i got to pick and choose my…

hiking got my thighs to get smaller. they used to rub when i walked and now they dont...it did take about 200 or more miles of hiking but well worth it.

is "hey there sexy lady" one of those comments?

one thing i found is getting out of your exercise routine for a day or two almost feels like a day off. i workout at the gym 5 days a week and on weekends i go for a long hike or a very long bike ride and sometimes i do both. due to it not being in the gym it almost does not feel like exercise or working out even though i…

this happened to me a while back also... it turns out-after having a friend observe my exercise routine--that i was holding my breath a lot, especially during lifting weights. observe yourself or have someone watch you to see if this is happening to you... or like the other folks said, drink loads of water. and many of us…

it is always fun to dig out old clothes we hang on to .... i did that and found that i was even smaller than the stuff i had stored for the "in case i lose weight" occasion. good going!

sounds like my weight loss goals from when i started. I wanted to go from 295 to 199 from april to april. so far i am 57 lbs down and i have a 4 months to lose 38 more lbs. looks like i am on a 7 lb per month loss. so long as you stay consistent with your MFP and do your best in exercising on a regular basis you should be…

Good times!

sorry to hear about your persistent pain and suffering. the only thing i can think of is focus more on your MFP and food consumption and not worry about exercise other than your PT. I had to do this when i hurt my knee for a year and a half.. i never went to the doctor so i dont knwo what was wrong with it. but it healed…

getting started is always the hardest part. once you get going you will get those feel good endorphins going and it will motivate you to keep going. one suggestion is that you find a local workout partner. i used to have the same issue with losing steam but now that i have a workout partner we hold each other accountable…

count me in! i've needed a goal to set lately. lets do it!

not trying to make excuses for the mom, but speaking from my own experience of gaining major weight during my childhood, sometimes socio-economic status makes it very easy for anyone to gain weight. my parents were hardworking but worked minimum wage labor type jobs. money was scarce after rent and bills so we shopped at…

i agree with everyone's comments here. A workout buddy is always good, you keep eachother accountable. drink loads of water. one thing i tell myself when i find i am losing motivation (as i recently did due to not working out for a month because i was sick with pneumonia) is that within two weeks i am in the swing of…

not the place for comments like yours willie. keep it cool man.

i agree with the person who said to listen to your body... i started at 295 a few years back and was going great with the exercise routines but i was not listening to the soreness and pain in my knees and one blew out and gave out on me... it took me almost two years to recover from it. i started up again using mfp and a…

old metallica is good for a rocking hard workout or run. otherwise try slacker radio online.

and sometimes your body has to have time to adjust to the new changes before it starts doing what you want it to do. keep it up and you'll see.

your friend is a good friend. good luck and remember to do your best until you get the hang of all of this. you are going to have your bad days--dont beat yourself over these days--the good days and the very good days.. take them all in stride and you will succeed. good luck.

sometimes people say or make comments like those because they are uncomfortable with the fact that they are wanting to make those choices you made for your life, but for whatever reason they cannot bring themselves to diet correctly or workout. it feels like they want to keep you down because they cannot work themselves to…

i too am way bad at eating breakfast, but i at least put a bagel in my belly with some coffee to get going. your body is going to store all the fats and calories from your one meal to cover the rest of the meals you are not eating therefore it may be that you will not see any weight loss when you exercise. i could be wrong…

My main goal was to lose 99 pounds in 1 year. at first i set five pound goals but because i was at 299 i was losing the weight rapidly so i adjusted my goal to 20 pounds per reward so i wouldnt go broke rewarding myself every two weeks. so at 20 pounds lost i bought myself an xbox 360 with kinect sensor so i could do the…

I use runkeeper for hikes and mountain bike rides. i figured out that the free version is set to about a 150 lbs. person. so adjust calories accordingly.
