Podcasts in the gym FTW. And I love them when I'm commuting!

SAVED. mines in the mail!

I bought a CD for going a week being really strict on my diet....needed to break the psychological craves. Sticking with the gym habit 5/7 days a week for a month = a Striiv Getting to 125 and maintaining for two months is $500 at JCrew (gift card) and spa day. NOT DOING THIS AGAIN NEXT YEAR = $1500 for my birthday in Las…

My office has a vending machine. My guys have all gotten used to me walking up to the vending machine, leaning against it, then grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge and walking away. Today, one of the new guys offered me a dollar, and someone else explained, no, "she doesn't need a snack, she just wants one" before I…

I'd add the 4 miles while delivering papers, and the 20 minute walk at a very slow pace. Mine's set to sedentary, but I don't log stuff like walking five minutes to another building for a meeting...but I would log walking to lunch. Make sense?

Current Army.... I make height and weight, but my CSM is doing this 15/15/5 challenge. 15 points on the APFT, 15 pounds lost, or 5% body fat, and I'mma kick everyone's tail at this. I have till 31 March. So more effort at PT, more individual PT, and putting. The Fork. DOWN.

After 10 min on the treadmill I want to scream I'm so bored. And if I don't have a distraction, game over, I'm off and I'll find something else to do. I also zone when I'm running outside, scenery, other runners, etc. I find it meditative. So yes, I check out, but sometimes that's what I need. Time to think, problem solve,…

Veggies for fiber, water to flush the sodium...and concentrate on how down you feel on yourself. Use it as motivation in the gym this week!

I treat my size tags like I treat my scale...it's just a number. Shop for fit... Then cut the tags out :-p

Half and half and ugar in the raw in my morning coffee. 2% and sweet thoughts for me!

Pasta and McDonald's. had mashed cauliflower for dinner and roasted kale instead.... Uuuugh... Want!

I've been doing 30 DS in between other stuff (cardio, pushups, etc.) It's been 15 days, and I've lost 5 pounds. I can see the change in the mirror, especially my face, but won't redo my measurements until 1 FEB. Keep it up!

You lick the wrapper your granola bar came in. You logged the 90 calories, you're eating them! I don't relate to the measuring spoon ones. I have a food scale. But I do have a spare set of batteries in the junk drawer, waiting for the current ones to die!

I'm in. And down 4.6 lbs!! Kmacavery- I'm sure it's your muscles retaining water and nutrients repairing themselves. Keep it up! SW: 143.4 CW: 143.4 GW: 125 Weigh in Dates: 1/1 143.3 1/8 141.8 1/15 138.8 1/22 1/31 GOALS: My work is doing a 15/15/5, increase PT by 15 PTs, lose 15 lbs, or 5% body fat. I want to win that in…

Om nom. Trying this.

Eh...I slipped yesterday. Started my workout DVD and wasn't feeling it. S I turned on Downton Abbey and marched in place, did push-ups, squats, plank, flutter kicks, while watching tv. Probably not he same burn, but only logged 10 minutes of it. Today is a new day. Kickboxing tonight, and ill be there!

This is me. Also, the person that said 8 fl oz of water isn't 8 oz, weight and volume are two different things. I love my scale because its teaching me portions and portion control. Eventually, I'll be able to do it on the fly, but right now I'm weighing everything, including apples and bananas.

That looks terrible. You're doing it right with the slow but sure method that's gotten you down 39 pounds. Just stick with it.

where might one get her own cutting board with printed conversion charts, becuase this seems like a thing I need to own...? Thanks!

Why are you against leftovers? Especially if you do frozen meals, it's the same concept. I do a lot of leftovers, from dinner, or weekend cooking. I don't mind eating the same thing twice, but like to mix it up for the third day. Plenty of left over pasta with veggies, PB&J, cut vegetables/fruit, string cheese... I make my…

Sell your car, get a bike, and start biking or walking everywhere. Seriously, though, massive amounts of low impact cardio and reasonable food choices, and stay at your tdee, and it will come off.

Thanks for the "tips". Shaving my legs and holding my boobs up on Saturday. But I'll shave the night before so I'm completely dry. And maybe do an extra long workout....

LOVES: Philosophy The Present. It's sold as a primer, but I generally wear as moisturizer. No color, but still evens out my face. Will not fight. Per-fekt mascara. OPI Nail Polish, in the classic, I'm Not Really a Waitress, Chocolate Shake-speare, and A Ruble for your Thoughts ADORES: Birchbox. A monthly box full of…

You've answered this one. RUN LIKE THE WIND. I've dated this guys twin, and it wasn't serious, and I was willing to pay both his and my share, because he was a nice guy...but you don't want that. Thus....time to move on. You can't fix them.

Seconded! One for my moto wall

You keep eating junk because it's there. As painfully expensive as it is...grab a trash bag. Everything that's not reasonably healthy goes in the bag. Anything that you're keeping for a treat gets divided up into snack sized portions. Look up what you're keeping, write the calories on the bag. Ask yourself, when you pick…

You all just made my day. Someone drank the last bottle of cold water in the fridge. I had to load another case, so they'd be cold. The case was two feet from the fridge. And I had to drink room temperature water. The agony.

Under My Home, go to Goals, and look at your nutrition goals. You can set them manually. See if that works!

ZOMG, my people! I am trying to lose 15-20 lbs. Weighed in on 1 JAN at 144, on 3 JAN at 146 (water, I swear), and this past weekend, 141. Trying to get to 125. I'm 5'3", so that's reasonable. Add me! I don't even have a baby to show for mine! But we're thinking about it in about a year. I'd like to START from 125, not from…
