A co-worker and I have traded in our office chair for an excercise ball. I find that I move around a lot more (admit it excercise balls are fun!), focus more on my posture, and it's easy to get in a few exercises during the day.

I go through short periods where I lose 1-1.5 lbs a day. For me, it usually evens out before too long. I don't think I'd choose to eat more if I was feeling full on the number of cals I was eating. It may be as simple as the changes you've made in your life. You might want to consider checking with your doctor if you're…

Hi Lynz! There are those who swear by eating back your excercise cals. However, I am like you and I take those as a bonus. It's something I've discussed with my personal trainer and he wants me to eat 1200-1400 cals per day and not eat back my excercise cals. Those cals I work so hard burning....well, it doesn't make sense…

HI millesun! My story is similar although without the injury. I lost 86 pounds, was doing great, thought I had changed my life. And then it just all stopped working for me. Out of nowhere my "healthy switch" flipped to off and it didn't matter what I did to try to get "back in the game." I started over a few weeks ago and…

I've only recently started....cause I've also been the cardio queen. But like you, I knew I was missing that resistance traning. I've enlisted in the help of a trainor when my gym was running a special. I'm only doing twice a month with the trainer and each time I meet with him he gives me 2 sets which include a total of 6…

Ouch......done!

My bodybugg regularly comes in at about 150 less than what the treadmill says on my "800 calorie" workout. I take the 650 that my bodybugg gives me but use the 800 on the treadmill for a mental "way to go."

I've heard that drinking enough water can lessen this. Won't help you for tonight, but maybe in the future. I like the tights idea!

You're right of course! I was needing that reminder. :) I'm so tired after work that other than my gym days it's hard to get myself to workout in the evening. Ok, starting on Monday 30 mins on my treadmill M-F + my three gym days I already have in my schedule.

My office is across from the kitchen....argh I feel your pain! My door has been closed this week to keep the food out! Now I must admit though that overall this is a pretty health conscious office and our potlucks do usually result in a ton of healthy options.......but seriously, who brought the brownies?

I told everyone I was close to about my weightloss journey and asked that if they had any clothes they were getting rid of to please pass them on to me. Very soon I had a whole new wardrobe of clothes I love in a range of styles and sizes. My rule is when it's too big get rid of it because you never want to wear it again.

I'm in! <Closing the door to my office>

1) Continue to login and track every day to stay focused 2) Quit smoking on 9/10 3) Move my treadmill out of the garage and into my bedroom so I can still get a good cardio on my non-gym days 4) Be very close to fitting back in my navy dress pants by the end of the month!

Hi bbarton12! I'd love to be on your support team so feel free to friend me if you like! I always think this weightloss journey is more successful when you have people there to cheer you on! Where I am in my journey.....just over a year a go I had lost 86 pounds and was only pounds away from hitting goal. Then I totally…
