we are with you deb!! you can do it!!! "_" try walking around the house it helps a lot!! dont sit down.. think of sitting down as a hot potato no good and will burn! just keep on walking:):flowerforyou:

doesnt seem like a very motivating friend there @ bethany!!! just tell urself ur doing great !! u feel better and keep going we r here to encourage u!!!

I'm Vanessa 23 yrs old university student work full time no kids.. getting married next may

everyone is welcome :) just here to keep up the motivation and support!!!:D

i did loose 4 lbs but due to bloating gained it back this morning:s arg i hate TOM

interesting!! so i dont feel bad about drinking tap anymore (sounds strange but i always heard bad things about tap) that it has lots of chlorine and its not good!! but hey im drinking more tap then bottled and when i go home i drink filtered water

i dont know exactly how its gonna work even though i started the forum but it will !! we seem to have a lot of motivational people on here and it seems to be working already!!! just write your diet and excercise tips and plans your success stories, thoughts, even your bad days!! we are all here to help one another!!!!

Great!! :):) im drinking a nice bottle of water right now... gonna have chicken breast with a bit of pasta for lunch mixed in with veggies

hahaha just askinggg well i drink tap all the time i do live in montreal canada we have good tap as i am aware of:D but just wondering if there is any major difference! guess not!

i will def try that today !!! green tea is good naturally too:) hehe gotta love tea

ya the 1-2 lbs a week i have heard of that as well ... but im sure the more u weigh in the beginning its easier to loose more!!! i wish i was on the biggest loser with Jillian! hahaha

i guess my work out for almost 2 weeks has been good:) cant wait to start seeing the results tho:o

thanks guys!!! ur all amazinggg~

is 30 mins 6 days a week on the eliptical enough excercise?? or should i do more.... reminder: i am doing this at home

how much should you on average loose per week??? if doing cardio and eating well?

well on MFP for 35 mins it says i burn 544 cals on the eliptical.. but i put what i c on the machine to not get TOO TOO HAPPY and slack off!! but ill be sure to buy a HRM soon to see the difference!! as i exhaust myself in 35 mins and see not too good of results!

WELL... i dont hvae the option of weight and age on my machine unfortunetly ... soo maybe investing in a HRM is good.. hwoever the machine has handles that say what my heart rate is at?

i will def try the zigzag calories.. SOUNDS TRICKY THOUGH.. ihave a hard time with this counting cals i try to just minimize everything and eat more greens less cals ahaha

1st goal: loosing my first 10 pounds... My fiance told he for every pound i loose i will get 10$ to buy a new wardrobe.. talk about a good motivation hahah (lmaoo: however we have a joint account!!! ) hahahah still a motivator:)

zigzaggine?? explain ?

haha toronto is great as well .. going there for a week in june

haha same as i .. im at mcgill right now :)

:) i feel as bloated as an air baloon right now

well my first goal is to get down to 220 . so thats 8 lbs!!! due to my bloating might be less (i hope) haha... and im sooo excited to fit into my old clothes when i was 17!!! will take some time but im gonna get there as we all will!! any tipsss guys?? i try to drink water whenever i can !!! just to up my water intake!!…

ya.. i shouldn't take it tooooo crazy! as i know it will come off soon enough !!! i feel better in my clothes and breathing wise since ive been doing my cardio!!! however i feel like im always retaining water... as i dont sweat as much as im supposed to .. any tips on reducing water retention as a whole!?

well i gained a woopinnnn 4 lbs!! my TOM is coming tomorrow or so .. and im hoping not to gain no more:(

i have a desk job sooo i can only excercise once i finish work and when im at home.. which is after 5pm ... !! i try going up and down the stairs here atleast 2 x a day .. :)

its soo motivating and inspiring to hear from all of you .. it feels like we are all in this together!!!!
