Hi Jessica. I am also Jessica. I am 5'6. I started at 196. I am currently at 172. I want to get to 130. I am going to see you a request. I haven't been super active on MFP but I'm remotivayed and I want great people along side of me. Once they added the like button it kinda lost that personal touch and motivation so you…

Thank you. I'm not lifting very heavy yet. Actually, I'm still trying to determine what weight to use for most. So, I think I'll be safe with short rest periods.

Thank you. Usually the kayaking is planned. Last week, I went to the gym, got home and my husband wanted to go explore in the kayak, it was over three hours of rigorous kayaking. Thus is helping. I appreciate the advice.

Sorry, i haven't tried to quote someone. I agree physical therapy is a must. I have degenerative disc disease, 3 herniated discs, and a permanent fracture of the L5 vertebrae. I had a series of epidurals. They really helped by not for good. A year later I did therapy. It hurt so bad at first, but as muscles got stronger…

I've only recently joined a gym. I am working with a trainer. He wants me to do strength training 3 days a week with a day of rest in between to allow muscles to recoup. He encourages cardio as often as I want. But he says it is important to rest muscles for 36-48 hours before working them out again (with weight). Right…

I have found a couple of Self workouts on Netflix. There are squats, but I have found the way they do them to not be as bad. I usually do something else during the lunges. Self: Slim and Sleek, Fast Self: Bikini Ready, Fast (more strength and toning than cardio) 10 minute solution: Kickbox Bootcamp- I have fun with this…

I really like Cracker Barrel 2% Sharp Cheddar Cheese sticks. You can find them with the string cheeses. They are in indiviidual packaged in a pack of 8 or so. They are 90 for one stick and they are pretty good size. They taste great. I have one every day to work in some of my cheese addicition. I am with you, I wish there…

I got the phone call for a job interview last Wednesday and the interview was yesterday. It is a job I have been trying to get for over 2 years. I gave into stress eating and stressed a…

That is funny and awesome!

I will take a half pound loss. I actually had hoped I would gain half a pound because I did not do well Wednesday through Sunday. I made a lot of unhealthy choice and went over several times. I had to exercise extra to make it work. I'll remind myself I could have lost at least a full pound. I am looking forward to this…

My name is Jessica. I am 35 yrs old and my current weight is 179 (as of 6/29). I have lost 7 pounds so far on MFP after losing 15 on weight watchers and gaining 7 back. I haven't ever participated in any of these challenges and I am not sure how it all works, but I will figure it out. I don't really have any hobbies. I…
