  • I really dislike Vicky. She should really try to make up for what she lacks in looks in personality...you shouldn't be ugly inside and out.
  • I would love to see a twist in which there is a double eviction and both Vicky and Heba get the boot. They have really irritated me this season. I don't like hateful people!
  • My personal trainer also does not agree with the eat your exercise calories concept.
  • So I thought I was going to make it to the gym for a 2nd workout tonight, but that's not going to happen. I've cleaned my house from top to bottom and I am exhausted. However, while I am watching The Biggest Loser tonight, I'm going to do my workout routine during commercial breaks. I do things such as jumping jacks,…
  • I'm a spin-a-holic, too! I've been doing it for about a year now, and it has really helped to improve my cardiovascular fitness level. I still burn tons of calories in class, depending on how hard I push it. I usually average between 850 to 900 calories on a good day...slightly less if I have worked out with my trainer…
  • Come on...you can do it....I was out of it for 5 whole days but now I'm back and i feel better than ever. Only 6 days to go!
  • Good Morning Challengers...and Happy Veteran's Day!:flowerforyou: I just finished up a 60 minute workout with my trainer. I usually can't workout in the mornings because I have to be at work at 7:00 a.m., but since it's a holiday, I was able to go in early. I burned 953 calories this morning and I'm feeling great:bigsmile:…
  • Ok...I've been out of touch since Thursday. I had to go out of town for a wedding, and I was NOT prepared for that. Eating out for four days, not access for fitness equipment....AHHHHHHH...i feel like I've been totally set back:mad: BUT, I'm back and I'll be back in the gym first thing tomorrow morning....:bigsmile:
  • I chose mine because the Serenity Prayer sums up my weight loss journey. There will be good days and bad days...things that I can change and things that I can't. Heck, there are weeks that I am "perfect" and that scale doesn't change one bit, but I try not to let it discourage me. My job is to do all that I can to make a…
  • Welcome dbanks....The Stairmaster...my mortal enemy:devil: I have conquered every machine in the gym except that one. I'm working on it though...i've managed to increase the time that I can stay on it to 30 minutes, but I want to get up to 60 minutes like all of the other machines. Good luck to you!
  • Just got back from the gym and boy am I tired:yawn: I worked out with my trainer for 60 minutes (burned 658 calories) and then did a 60 minute spinning class (burned 1001 more calories). Now it's time for a protein shake, a shower, and bed!:bigsmile:
  • I've been seeing a chiropractor for a couple of weeks. It's definitely helping, but not relieveing them totally. Hopefully they'll go away soon! Well, here's to another good day everyone:drinker:
  • Bump for me to read when I'm awake:yawn:...It's been a long day and I don't want to miss what looks like good info:bigsmile:
  • Welcome Samantha. ..good advice to mel:tongue: GET RID OF THAT JUNK! Stop blaming the kids! ...and good luck to you:flowerforyou: Well, I just finished my workout for today. I did 20 minutes on the Arc Trainer (burned 343 calories) followed by a 60 minute spinning class (burned 945 calories). After leaving the gym, I was…
  • For me, it really just depends on what time I am shutting down for the day. I work full-time and go to school part-time, so I often have a 14-16 hour day. I usually try to eat my last "meal" no more than 2 hours before I go to bed. However, if I get hungry, I'll allow myself a small snack like a handfull of nuts, a small…
  • Here's the link to the instructions http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/15066-how-to-add-a-ticker-to-your-forum-signature good luck!
  • Ok..mellymlk...it's time for an intervention... THROW THE CANDY AWAY! NOW! IN THE TRASH IT GOES! And so that you will not be tempted to go in the trash to retrieve it (been there, done that:embarassed: ) unwrap it, toss it, and then squeeze some ketchup on it. That'll get it good and gross for you! NO MORE CANDY! WE CAN DO…
  • Good Morning Challengers! I successfully made it through my first temptation this morning! I stood in line in line in the cold rain waiting to vote this morning and here comes the PTSA with Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and Hot Chocolate...DAMN THEM:mad: I wanted one sooooooo bad! But (un)luckily I only had my ID, voter…
  • I wear Brooks running shoes. They are made especially for people with low arches and are super supportive and comfortable. I got mine from a local running store. This is probably the best method because they actually fit you for the shoe...and I was surprised to find that I wear a different running shoe size than regular…
  • I worked out with my trainer for 60 minutes...burned 1045 calories (it was a tough one tonight:grumble: ) Dinner is a broiled pork chop, collard greens, and wild rice...nice and simple:flowerforyou:
  • When it's late and I'm trying to avoid a heavy meal, I go for a bowl of cereal. It's not too heavy (or high in calories depending on what you choose) but I always fills me up.
  • Current weight = 203 (oh poo!...i've gained some weight:sad: )
  • Hi! I'm Alecia and this looks like the challenge for me. Prior to today, I was down 30 pounds, but I''ve been back-sliding over the past few months and 10 pounds have magically reappeared:angry: . I definitely need some motivation to get back on track. 11/03/2008 WEIGHT = 203lbs RIGHT BICEP = 14 inches CHEST = 41 inches…
  • Hello my fellow losers! Starting weight = 223.6 Current weight = ? (will find out this afternoon when I weigh in with my trainer, though I think around 200) Goal weight = 140
  • thank you! I was trying to get the photo to work...i'm tech dumb:bigsmile: how'd you do that?:huh: Nevermind...i figured it out:bigsmile:
  • He He...I thought I was the only person that did this to myself. I am also not engaged, but I have that "perfect" dress in mind for when the big day comes. This is mine... Now...how to get her waistline???:huh:
  • I'm a November baby too (27th-Turkey day this year)! Happy early birthday to you!
