That is great that you are determine and want to make exercise a part of it. I work from home some days and was like you, wake up, shower, and put on some clean pjs :) What I suggest is wake up, eat breakfast, do an hour of work, put in an exercise dvd (I highly suggest Jillian Michael's, her 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30…

I used to do this sometimes, because like you said, I felt it would MAKE me do it. However, now I use the app runtastic on my iphone to help count calories a bit more precisely so I wait till after. My next step is the Heart Rate Monitor watch. Once I get that I will never log before I do because I want accurate numbers.

Would it be 550 extra, so 1950? Thanks!

This sounds really interesting, useful, and confusing. Please let me know if I understand correctly. I am set for .5 pounds a week = 1400 calories. If it was set at 1lb it would be 1200. So I should eat 1200 calories of food each day Mon-Sat plus an extra 200-300 depending on what I earn from exercise? Then on Sunday eat…

If you can run outdoors that helps, if you have an iphone you can listen to Pandora or audibooks. I like pandora, I agree with whoever said they imagine themsleves being awesome in different ways :) Sometimes I run with friends so we chat about movies. If I am at home on the elliptical I load netflix on the ipad and watch…

Super Yummy and Super Nutritious: 1. 1/2 cup frozen berry blend (they have these at Target, Trader Joes, Whole Foods) includes blueberries, rasberries, and blackberries, some also have strawberries. Gives me antioxidants 2. 1 cup water 3. 1 scoop Amazing Grass Green Superfood Chocolate Powder (full of great stuff and I…

All 3 dvd's in one day? Are you using a heart rate monitor to determine the calories? Instead of Jillian Michaels 6 week 6 pack and Killer Buns and Thighs try some of her other dvds (I have them all) that are more varied-No More Trouble Zones is great, Extreme Shed and Shred, 30 Day Shred, and Ripped in 30 are all…

5'2 and a half :) target 115. Not too focused on the number,more on being toned and hopefully having a hopefully flat tummy. Hopefully everyone's goal is within guidelines for a healthy weight for their height and gender. I see a few on here that look a bit low. Height (ft/inches) Ideal Weight females (Pounds) 5' 0" 97-127…

Great tips! I also love SBD

Do you feel the Jorge Cruise flat belly diet did help you lose belly fat? That is my onyl area of concern (I am otherwise thin) and I have been curious about his diet.
-
My tips: 1. ditch the creamer. I loved it too but it is unhealthy for many other reasons (fat, cholesterol, the fact that is so processed). I switched to 2% milk in my coffee or tea with stevia. 2. As someone else said, choose plain greek yogurt. You can add stevia to it if the flavor is hard for you to get used to, I…

I also go over most days due to fruit and yogurt. I only buy the low-fat PLAIN greek yogurt but it can have s up to 9grams of sugar per serving, add a small apple and a few berries in my home-made smoothie and I'm over for the day. I do agree that bananas and other super sugary fruits should be limited but not cut out…

Feel free to add me, I'm on here daily and motivation has been high lately :)

Feel free to add me as well :) I'm also a teacher and log in daily :)

I had a very similar starting weight, height, and goal. I also started at the 1200 because I marked lose a pound a week, I changed to .5 and was given 1400. Much happier, I can stay 100 calories under this most days but could not stick to the 1200. Also I know you might not want to hear it but exercise really is the cure…

I think a taco would work perfectly. You can also break up the taco into pieces and kind of make tortilla chips out of it that way :) Hope that helps.
-
Thank you!!! These sound so tasty! Can't wait to try them!
-
They are tortilla chips from Costco. Are you in England? I'm in the U.S. so I don't mean french fry style. Cactus chips if you can find those are also great and healthier :)

The same, flounder sole from the farmer's market. I usually eat mild white fish or salmon any time I have fish, but not a fan of salmon in fish tacos. :)
-
I use stevia in my tea instead.

I just bought the Yonanas device (I think they have it at Target) and I love it! It is just frozen bananas and other frozen fruit you like but tastes just like ice cream! You can also make a desert with dark chocolate and strawberries.

So easy and so yummy! I buy the Target Market Pantry Frozen Triple Berry Blend and whole wheat waffles (Kashi has good ones and there is brand at Target as well that I cannot remember. Put the waffles in the toaster, I toast twice on a low setting. Put the berries in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes (1/2 cup berries). Pour…

Squeeze 1/2 lemon juice, add 4 table spoon Pace Mild Salsa. Eat with Kirkland Organic Chips (14 chips=1 serving). 275 calories. 1/2 of the filet goes to me, 1/2 for my…

Graduated '99 at 100lbs (I'm 5'3"). Went up to 126 after college (not in college). 118 now, 115 is goal. Would never want to be below 110 again.
-
I really like Extreme Shed and Shred, Ripped in 30, and 30 day Shred (if I had to pick 3). However No More Trouble Zones is really good for strength, very tough though-I have a very hard time finishing this one. I have Bansih Fat and Boost Metabolism which is pure cardio, and I don't really do it because if I am just…

I was also shocke to see so many on Amazon calling it fun, but it helped me try to look at it as fun when I tried it, and I guess it was fun! I did level 1 only and liked it.

Can't wait!
