There are some fantastic videos out there but honestly having been where you are, the best way to begin with yoga is to find a local studio/class and try out a beginner's or yoga flow class. (a lot of places even give you one free class to try it out) Being around all the people and having an instructor is great because if…

Oasis - Champagne Supernova :tongue:

Saturdays - Holly Brook

Thanks for sharing! reminds me why I force feed myself a glass of water at every turn :p

You look fantastic! I'm so happy for you! All that hard work has surely paid off!

1. boiled eggs - they're low calorie and the protein helps satisfy your hunger 2. smoothies - what a fun way to get some extra nutrients! Our local smoothie shop can also mix in extra things like caffeine or vitamins (even an appetite suppressant) to help out 3. oatmeal - delicious and nutritious! 4. rice cakes - not the…

I think for me that's why my ultimate goal is not to lose weight but to live a healthier lifestyle for the rest of my life. Although weight loss would be a fantastic perk, it's not my only reason for doing all of this. If I can make a permanent change then hopefully I can break the cycle. :)

Wow! What an adventure! Lol Sounds like it was fun despite the trouble though. :P

Bagels with cream cheese..... or just cream cheese in general. I had a bagel w/ cc yesterday. It was so good that I've promised not to have it again until goal weight is reached. It's just too good. I always want a second one and then I want to put on extra cream cheese or double it with cream cheese AND jam.... It's…

I usually log Zumba as Aerobic Dance

If I break a sweat, I log it. If not then I don't bother. :P

If I break a sweat, I log it. If not then I don't bother. :P

Hmmm I get headaches if I don't drink enough water.

I would like to see these answers also... As far as I understand it there are two kinds of sugar in the world: good sugar and bad sugar. Good sugar, like the sugar in fruit, is supposedly easier to burn off again than bad sugar (donuts, etc.). That's all I know so far though.

Welcome! I hope you like it here!

No no noooo!!!!! You're doing so well!!!! If you get a sweet tooth try some Skinny Cow chocolates or ice cream! They're delicious :) Also if you want pizza try a pepperoni pizza Lean Pocket. Not the best thing for you but nowhere near as bad as most pizzas would be. Just try to find lower calorie substitutes. :) As for the…

Hmmm some breezy summer dresses or if its winter a nice form fitting sweater :P

I've never tried the Jillian Michaels videos but I definitely see a difference when I use workout DVD's regularly.

I've read several places that breakfast should be the biggest meal of the day consisting of something like 40% of your daily caloric intake. I don't know about anyone else but I simply cannot eat that much in the morning. :P I do try to have a big breakfast though.

Agreed

I have some problems with a past injury in my left foot as well as high arches (makes me very clumsy). I got Nike's Free XT Quick Fit+ Women's Training Shoe. The soles are partitioned into triangles for maximum flexibility at all angles and easier movement. They also have this bit of stretchy fabric inside the shoe that…

I like the brushing teeth idea. I always try to drink a full glass of water and then wait ten minutes before I snack on anything after 8pm. The water makes you feel full and helps the food craving subside while at the same time being very good for you and your weight loss. Also I always keep a good supply of fresh…

Hey welcome! From what I've gathered so far, you should eat at least 75% of the calories you burn. I'm in the same boat though, I have to find ways of eating more sometimes. Apparently if you don't eat those calories back your body can go into starvation mode and try to protect the fat instead of burning it. At least…

WOW. Just wow. I can't even say how angry that made me to read what he said. I had an ex along those lines. Putting him behind you and moving on to become better for yourself will be the best feeling ever! I know we can all do this!!!

I usually try to order something baked, usually fish (not tilapia or catfish but I loooove salmon). I also substitute vegetabls for any fried foods or super starches (baked potatoe). Then when the food comes I make sure to only eat half -NO MATTER HOW GOOD IT IS- and get a box for the rest. I skip appetizers completely. If…

My sugary flavored coffee creamers. :( The english toffee flavor is too delicious to give up!!

Had the same question. Thanks for the info everyone. :)

Who are you to judge? Not everyone has a computer, can afford a computer, etc. For whatever reason everyone's situation is different and you have no way of knowing what their reasons are for using a phone. And even if they just choose to, so what? It's not some horrible crime. This is supposed to be a place of positivity…

I'm not sure I'm with you on this one. I understand what you mean but when I say the sentences to myself like : I haven't dropped a dress size yet... It seems to me as though it's discouraging. I understand the intent implied... but also the affirmation that I haven't reached my goal. Perhaps, for me, adding the phrase…
