It is very interesting how much hateful messaging and responses I got on this thread. I have been a member of MFP since 2008 and I have never experienced that before, because we are all here for the same reason: which is to be healthy, lose/maintain weight and find others out there who can help motivate you. At least that…

The cleanse is not for a specific body part... just giving the digestive system a rest and drinking freshly extracted fruits and vegetables!

Hey! I am actually in the same boat and right now I am on Day 3 of a 3 day- modified juice cleanse. I got the idea from a fitness blogger I read "The Skinny Confidential".... basically its 3 days of juicing all day (totaling 64 oz.) and then at night you can have 6 oz. of protein + a bunch of veges (i.e. salad, steamed…

Hey! I don't know if you guys would want to help each other by checking in right here on this post everyday to stay accountable! Maybe list out each others goals and then check in on how we did each day? I'll start... My goals for this month are: 1) Cardio 5 days a week 2) Complete Week 1 of "beginners yoga challenge"…

Hey Girl! I am in the same boat! I have fallen off the past few weeks and I am scared of the scale but I'd love to help motivate each other! I wanna kick start my diet (maybe with a juice cleanse) and get into a 5 workout a week routine + healthy eating! Lets get it!

I was dealing with something similar a few months back. And starting in like June I started doing a few of these little things, and Now its November and I am still at it and being consistent! They may sounds kinda silly or random but they help me stay motivated and help me stay on track. 1), I have been reading fun…

Hey! I am sure you already saw this but it sounds like your at the "maybe mudder" stage in the training and I downloaded this training schedule right off the website http://toughmudder.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/maybe-mudder-boot-camp.pdf I've never done it but I am thinking about signing up for it too! Good luck! This…

Me too! I am in the same boat. My boyfriend is really good about the gym but eats WHATEVER he wants! Its really hard for me because I (and i think a lot of women) need to incorporate healthy eating in order to lose weight. Id be happy to talk diets and healthy meal ideas and calories with anyone that wants to add me. I…

I posted up earlier and I am relieved to see how many people can really relate to this problem. Thank you for all the small tips and pieces of the advice. Anyone else looking for support feel free to add me too! Yesterday I did not binge. Gotta start somewhere, trying to get a few days under my belt!

I definitely can relate. I do literally feel like its an addiction like an alcoholic or drug addict would have. I can go a few days and do really well, eat within my calories and workout. Then (mostly on the weekends, but even random weekdays) I will literally just go off the cliff and eat thousands of calories in 1…

Great job!! Keep on trucking! you got this!

Got a workout in right away! Im hittin my goal this month!

Yeyy I am back for a second month! I didn't reach my goal last month, but I am going to try again for 50 miles!

Hey all! I am no where near my goal. I am going to see how close I can get, but I want in for December!!

Its not looking to good for my goal! Oh boy, I may have overestimated my first month! But, this challenge got me movin again!

Awesome job! I better get movinnn

Congrats!!! Goal completed a month early!!

I have been struggling too, but I am really trying to just take it one day at a time. I am nervous about thanksgiving weekend because I will be seeing all my family. I am going to just try and be perfect until next thursday, and then just do my best while Im home. Everyone still hang in there! Its a struggle but I know it…

Im still here!!

Another 2 miles for me :) Its beautiful out here in Miami!

Hey everyone!! I hope we didn't lose each other or people haven't given up! I know I had a rough month or so in there and I gained about 5-7 lbs :embarassed: BUT.... as they say Back on the wagon!! I still struggle the most with my binge eating, but At least I got my butt back to moving last week! I worked out 3 days and…

Updating! I'm doing only 2-3 miles at a time, but I'm loving the motivation I get from you all! Keep it up *kitten* movers :smokin:

.5 miles on the elliptical and 2.5 on the treadmill! I love this challenge. I've got my workout mojo back

Update for anyone interested in juicing! I was not able to do the Juice only, but I have religiously added juicing to my diet daily. I havent been drinking coffee and I've been drinking about 3-4 juices a day and nuts daily. Then I'll usually eat a regular dinner. While I have only seen a loss when I actually added some…

This challenge has gotten me out of my NON WORKOUT funk! Ive done 2 miles the past 3 days in a row! Slow and steady

I have been struggling a lot over the past month or two. The stress and tiredness of work and school is overwhelming sometimes. I Have definitely gained and have definitely been slacking in the work-out department. I am committed to getting moving again with running and walking after I get home. I know I am not alone! Lets…

This challenge has gotten me back into my working out this week (after a long month of doing NO WORKING OUT!) Slow and steady :) Thanks for the inspiration all!
