I think you look great. I also don't see fat, but regardless everyone should exercise to keep our hearts healthy and our bodies strong. If you don't do much now try starting with a goal of 3 times a week for one month. I started with Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred DVD because it is circuit training (a little bit of…

Thanks!

Thanks!! Inspiring and helpful!

Try reading South Beach Diet Supercharged.

Thanks for all the feedback. I run 2x a week, do some other form of cardio 1x a week (rollerblading, hiking, biking) and do circuit training 1-2x a week through Jillian Michael's dvd's which includes light weights (3lb). I think I will increase weights to 5lb and then more over time and increase weight traning days in…

Wow!

Great progress! Thanks for sharing!

Haven't tried both but might tomorrow as well, either that or NMTZ.

I've heard even sparkling water can lead to bloating and stomach issues. It took me a while but I really try to only drink water or unsweetened tea. Sometimes I drink milk but try to limit that as well. Everyone once in a while I have a few sips of a coke zero but it's much better if I stay away from all that stuff. Once…

No lemons?

I like low sodium v8 but if you look at what's in it's just not enough. As someone mentioned, you miss out on fiber, but more importantly you miss out on a lot of green veggies and other nutrients that are not in v8. Here is what I have been trying to get more veggies in my diet: 1. Try adding a scoop of Amazing Grass…

Running is fun to me, especially when you finish. Swimming is super fun. I like my circuit training dvd's and tae boe, but the only workout that doesn't even feel like a workout to me is rollerblading. So fun! If you go fast for an hour you will burn a lot of caloires. I also like biking but it tends to hurt my knees.

I'm not sure of your age or where you are running (hard surfaces, soft surfaces, or indoor/treadmill) but when I started doing what you are at 3 miles only by knee really started bothering me (age 30). When I was in highschool I used to run 6 miles 5 days a week on a soft path (woodchips) for Cross Country and didn't have…

They are haters. Well-meaning haters maybe, but I find that the same people who were quick to let me know that I looked like I had "gained a little weight" or needed to "lay of the carbs a little" are the same ones who have endless comments now that I am trying to eat in a healthy manner and work out regularly. And just…

Me too!

Agree! Halle Berry!

extreme shed and shred level 1 :)

Thanks! I love zucchini!

I just saw your settings and goal. The only other tip I can think of is look carefully at what you are eating. If you make sure you have 5 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein at every meal that can help. Veggies dipped in non-fat greek yogurt can be a good snack if you feel like you need something but don't want to go…

I did have this problem early on because I had it set to lose 1 pound a week and it gave me 1200 calories. I would earn about 200 back from working out, but would still be hungry. Try changing some settings.

Thanks for all the great ideas!

Great idea! Thanks!!!

It was but I only used a teaspoon, will look for your recipe, thanks!

Thanks!!!

Lol! Sounds great! I will have to try it! Especially intrigued by the yogurt BBQ sauce :)

Great idea, I know I need the veggies on the side! Thanks !

Sounds soooo good! thanks!

Welcome and happy birthday!

lost 2 pounds :)

Just do an hour walk today. That is what I do on my rest day, walking or light yoga. My routine is like yours, something different each day. I found in the past the 1 rest day would turn into 2, then 3...I love doing at least 30 minutes of exercise each day, this keeps my motivation up because I tell myself "hey, you've…
