YAY! Woke up this morning with barely ANY soreness!! I'm actually looking forward to my shred today :)

@starrlight23 - I just saw your post from yesterday about starting a walking routine. My trainer in the past has told me to do your strength session first, then cardio because by the time you get to your cardio your body will be burning mostly fat, so it speeds fat loss. She gave me the scientific reason, but I dont…

Not at all! Thats better than skipping a day :) This way you stay on track! Way to go!!

Found the remote and did L1D1. wasnt as hard as it has been in the past but boy did it feel good! I feel like going for a jog and raking the rest of my yard! For everyone that is on day 2, which is proble everyone but me LOL, tomoro will proble be the worst day with regards to soreness, due to delayed onset in your…

I was sooo determined to do day 1 yesterday, but then I got super nauseous from some meds I'm taking this week... so I couldnt :sad: BUT I got up early this morning to do it so the meds cant get in the way. Now I cant find my stupid remote and my dvd player wont let me do it manually :noway: I mean can you say sabotage! So…

way to go!! thats a huge NSV to not even want the candy!! Great inspiration :)

Ok so here's my stats before I start the 30ds DVD: 10/31/11 Bust – 36 in Waist (narrowest) – 30 in Navel – 33.5 in Hips – 35.5 in Upper thigh – 22 in Lower thigh – 16 in Arms – 11.75 in Weight – 138.4 lbs BF% - 27.7% (estimated) I used the same scientificpsychic.com website to get the body fat %.

Just a quick update... I went to the doctor today and got cleared for exercise :) So I'll be starting my running routine this week. I'm very happy!:happy:

I went to the doctor today and I'm cleared for exercise as long as I feel up to it!!! YAY! So excited!! I can start tomorrow with everyone!

I agree with everyone that you need exercise to have a well rounded routine. With that said however, I lost my first 20+ lbs without it because I just hate to exercise to be completely honest. And I am flabbier than I want to be but I'm working on that now that I have the motivation from losing the weight. While I didn't…

I would love to do this with y'all this month! I have never made it all the way thru the DVD in fact I don't know that I've ever gotten to level 2. I got sick this weekend so I hope to be good to start on the 1st but we'll see. I'll start as soon as I can I guess. I am in a wedding on Dec 3rd so this would be the perfect…

I am so bummed! I had gotten all these great tips for starting a running routine and was all motivated to go out for a walk/jog and start on my running journey, when all the sudden I got these horrible chest pains. Turns out I have a lung infection that I have to go in for this next week and get antibiotics :( Can't do…

HAHA you're fine... it's a valid question. My thought is that throughout the entire weight loss process you have plateaus for various reasons. I did a little bit in and I knew that it was not just my body saying that was enough because I still felt like crap. So it just depends on the person, which is why weight loss is so…

Read above... everyone has awesome suggestions! But I've concluded NOT to run thru them. AZTrailrunner has great posts to read for you. So glad I posted this... now I feel like I can start again :)

I agree with Shannon_2003. It's about how you feel. Each person knows at what weight they feel the best. And sometimes you have to go below your best weight to know where you feel the best. It's not about taking the easy way out.... That's how most of us gained our weight to being with.

Haven't tried them, I might give them a shot. Thanks!

Amazing suggestions! Thanks so much! I'm concerned about stress fractures, thus the reason for my post. Your posts are incredibly enlightening thanks!!

Awesome! Thanks for all the advice!! I'll have to try the stretches and the foam roller, I haven't tried those yet. :flowerforyou:

Just saw this weeks challenges as I was scrolling thru past posts.... 1. I am going to focus on doing squats and lunges. Definitely hate working lower body! 2. I am going to work on cutting down my refined sugar... I have a BAD sweet tooth. 3. I don't really have any clothes to try to fit into... I'm at my smallest adult…

@olivia3263 - awesome analogy! That was really motivating! Thats a big part of how I lost most of my weight to this point was being active for the fun of it and it does make a difference! Quick question: I'm really wanting to get into running but the shin splints I get almost instantly have stopped me every time. It's not…

Hey everyone! So I'm super late showing up to the group but I would love it if I could join in! I had lost over 20 lbs since May on MFP and was down to 135... my initial goal. Then things got hectic and I slipped up, plus TOM kicked in and I spiked to 140 lbs! It's coming off rather quickly now that I'm watching what I eat…

I feel the same way!! been a very rough month in the way of exercise and eating for me. But with winter fast approaching, I HAVE to get into some kind of exercise groove so I don't gain everything back that I lost this summer! I wanna be on next month too!!

Hey guys sorry I've been totally MIA these past two weeks.... Been very hectic around here, sounds like everyone is having difficulty! Hang in there guys and thanks for the motivation! I can honestly say that the only reason I got back on here to log is because of you guys, besides the fact that I've been feeling like crap…

i havent even had a chance to do any workouts this week yet! VERY busy!! Hope to catch up tomorrow!!

@daddyzgrrl28 - I would wait to weigh in until tomorrow first thing in the morning. If you do it tonight it won't be accurate and you'll probably show more weight than you are because you've eaten and exercised and all that fun stuff!!

Wow just saw that we had a new forum. LOL I love the idea of the Google docs because EVERYONE can see what you do and don't do! Love the accountability!! My name is Clarissa and I am currently in Rugby, ND. I'm married to a wonderful husband of 3 years who is my absolute best friend and is the greatest support system (most…

yay!
