You really need to count them. One beer can cost you 150 calories. So having just a few drinks can really be the difference in staying on track or blowing your entire day. so be careful and log everything. I log pieces of candy I eat because I wasn't logging them at first, and after having five small pieces of candy,…

Yes, I would have had to send the kids somewhere and put him in his place. I think he may be attracted to you and picking on you is his sick way of expressing it. I would talk to mom about her man and let her know that it would be appreciated if she would let him know to steer clear of me. Hopefully she takes your side and…

How horrible. I have heard of this before and actually heard of a woman that passed away from it. So very glad you got medical attention when you did.

I had gastric bypass in march 2011 and lost 107lbs. It's not easy and you still have to be very disciplined. I work out alot to try to keep the loose skin as much in control as I can. But I don't regret any of it. I am off the blood pressure meds, off the asthma inhalers (notice inhalers is in plural form), the arithis is…

Lol...I gotcha! Thanks.

it's ok to like whomever you like. u can't help who u are attracted to, no matter what they look like.

looks awesome. I've already wanted to try this.

I think what you are eating is awesome. You could cut one of the pieces of bread with the lentils. Switch to light bread and maybe go to skim milk. But if you are eating that way and exercising, your metabolism should burn with no problem. Watch the salad dressing with that salad and make sure it's low fat and eat the…

thanks for sharing. i'm waiting on my Insanity as we speak, hopefully in the next week, nice to see someone get those kinds of results.

definitely gonna check it out. thnx

make sure you add veggies and some kind of protein powder to the mix. i wouldn't do it for a full month though. good luck!

your body needs to recouperate..get some rest and plenty plenty of fluids. the exercises will still be there when you feel better because your body does not have the energy to burn right now.

i think people know what they mean personally when they say the want to tone up..whether it's losing fat or making you muscles stronger, the overall look you end up with is a leaner, toner body..so if they choose to say toned, i don't see what the big deal is. but to each his own..

frozen yogurt is good, but ff ice cream, no way!

I was about to post this on my status that i was drunk, then i saw your post..how ya doing my friend. and yes, i am pretty wasted right about now. last day of the weekend. WOOO HOOO!!

i am addicted to those bars..i always eat one in the mornings on the way to the gym. the chocolate peanut butter is awesome and the double chocolate (i think that is the name). my friend loves the strawberry ones but i'm not a fan of strawberry so i've never tried them. i buy them by the dozen to last me and my son about a…

I just started HIIT training with Tabata..I love it..I can get it done in about 16 minutes and I'm drenched afterwards.

if you are near a quick trip, their turkey sandwiches are like 290 calories. get a fruit cup to go with it.

I can't wait to start. I want my T-shirt!

I would love to hear more opinion myself. Both are excellent programs and I believe that if you stick to your routine for the 30 days that you would get great result with either one of them. Good luck to you.

I don't think that this post was saying "do this exercise and nothing else". If you do these excercise along with others, along with your cardio, you will firm up those areas. That's why there are leg lifts and sqauts, arm curls, etc, because they work that specific area, but you do them in a routine to burn the total body.

Increase the protein, whole grains, nuts, beans, legumes, etc. That is very important because if you are still taking in sugar, starches and bad carbs, it won't go anywhere. Add resistance training to your workout, and planks are awesome for your core.

Most definitely. A drink can be 200 calories, and that can be the thing that takes you over your daily calorie limit and derail your efforts. Be careful with them because a lot of drinks are empty calories and pretty much a big jug of sugar. So go for the zero calorie drinks as much as possible.

I have the memory card for Jillian Michaels that goes into my treadmill and she then controls the treadmill speed, incline, everything, and she talks to you. Did it one time one the beginning level, that was it, couldn't handle it.

1 lbs of muscle weighs the same as 1 lbs of fat. But the way your body carries it is different. The first thing a person says when you put on a couple of pounds is "I must be gaining muscle". Not true, because with you building muscle, you burn more calories and you become trimmer, whereas fat takes up more space on your…

those mini reeses peanut butter cups. if i eat one, IT'S OVER! I'm eating the entire bag.

i'm sorry you went through that. i'm glad you are seeing yourself for the real you. my grandmother called me fat my entire childhood. so i know how hurtful it can be. a relationship is unhealthy and needs to be steered clear of no matter who it is, so good luck on your journey.

misery loves company. when you don't feed off of it, he'll see he can't get to you and probably try to find another victim. just pityful.

thanks a lot for this info!!
