Me please!

I do a fitness class every Tuesday/Thursday evening. On Wed and Saturdays my kids have sports at the YMCA...so I do cardio/weights those days while they are in their classes. Monday's I do aquafit. I take Friday and Sunday off each week...but if it's not raining, I'm usually going for a nice long walk most days as well.

Any chance you can talk your boss into buying (or letting you bring in) a stationary bike or elliptical to toss in an empty room/corner? It could be viewed as staff wellness. I know my employee bought a couple 'stationary bike' desks...that hold your laptop etc. to try to give folks a chance to be active. They put them in…

Passion and Purpose. Not Perfection. (this is my mantra)

Hey Sarah! I know that loss was frustrating for you...but sometimes the body just likes to make you wait to see your results! My husband was like that last week. He had ZERO loss and was so bummed that he went off plan for a couple days. Fast forward to today and he had a HUGE 3lb loss (His total loss goal is 20lbs). So it…

Hi all! Just to let you know it looks like the thread was moved to 'Challenges' instead of General. In case you have troubles finding it....

I can start it then! I don't think one has already been started...I'll use the same thread title but with February. Look for it in about 2 minutes :D

Has a Feb thread been started? I can start it (or someone else can?) I did find this very helpful!

You are all welcome to add me too! I have a personal 100lb loss goal...and I just started so I'm only a few lbs into it. This WILL be my year <3

Thanks everyone! Big relief hearing that Florida rides are spacious. I do have lofty and amazing goals for myself this year though to make sure I can make the most out of this special family trip. It's funny...when I was younger I wanted to lose weight to look a certain way. Now that I'm older...I just want to participate…

If you are working out 3-4 hours every day, you probably need to eat closer to 2000 calories. I don't think working out that much and aiming for 1200 calories is sustainable. You are going to just be exhausted. You have done amazing...be proud of that and try not to rush your last 50 lbs. Just keep on being persistent and…

I just got back from doing a 30 minutes walk around a few parking lots. LOL. Not exciting...but at least I got something in. I lapped and zigzagged between three buildings...

I do weight training 3 times a week. It works up a huge sweat. Just eating better and weight training has had me losing about 3lbs per week. Don't underestimate yourself...I do TurboJam videos (and do them well) and can do cardio machines no problem...even though I'm over 300lbs.

I'm down 47 lbs and still have 100+ to go! We can do this!!! Anyone can add me if they like :)

I'm starting Monday as well! Nervous but excited :). Good luck!!!

I'm just fearful that I won't be around for my kids as long as I dream of. The years go by fast and I just need to stop stalling before it's too late...

Love this!

I have a 2 and 4 year old. I got to the gym in the evening. After dinner, the hubby is home...and I leave for a couple hours. I do this about 3 times a week and it works out well (gives me a break as well). The other days I just go for walks with them or play with them as exercise. You just got to make it a priority! Good…

This broke my heart.... I'm doing it for my kids too. I want to be here for them for as long as humanly possible.

My trainer has talked to me a lot about this. Basically, in her opinion...you try to eat enough calories most days. You want to have energy! But if once or twice a week you are under...but you are still feeling satisfied, not to worry about it. Shoving food into your mouth to hit a number isn't necessary. You won't go into…

Thanks for your response! I don't mind hard work at all...and am doing the hard setting. I just move pretty slow on it and wanted to make sure my slow speed wasn't hindering me! lol

Bump!
