  • Actually I was on the black team when it started the first of LAST year. The concept is the same as that of the Biggest Loser. You have to give your start weight to your captain of your team (pink, blue, black, white, orange....). That person keeps track of the names and weights of the people on their team. On a certain…
  • The easiest thing to do is go to reports, click progress, and click the measurement you want to see. You can even print them out so you can post them on the mirror or wherever to look at them often!!
  • I am sad to say that I have done this 3 times now :grumble: . For one reason or another I end up getting off track and quitting just when the getting is good. Every single time I start back I notice the same changes both in mood and bowel movements. I have pretty much become accustomed to the changes and have accepted them…
  • Ditto! The key thing to remember is that muscle is denser than fat, thus a small increase in muscle can cause a weight gain. Muscle also retains water when you first start using them, mainly because they have been dormant for so long, but this retention will go away over time. As hard as it is to do sometimes, try to pay…
  • Personally I never pay attention to it. It calculates results for weight loss based on your caloric intake. If you take into consideration that if you eat too few calories your body will actually stop losing weight and possibly retain more water, then the estimate isn't accurate at all! I attempted once to follow the…
  • You make me laugh! That is awesome! And to the poster....AWESOME!!!! Way to go! Keep it up and you will be where you want in no time flat! I am still working on my attitude to some extent. I am getting there. I think my hardest thing is forcing myself to get up and go workout....granted not sure why cause I feel super…
  • Typically I work out Monday through Saturday from about 4:30a-5:30a or 6a, and then on Tuesdays I do Zumba from 7p-8p with a 30 minute warm up/stretch walk before the class so I don't hurt from it later. I don't eat before for a couple of reasons, one being that if I eat before I workout it makes me super nauseated, and…
  • Keeping a journal with food helps A LOT!!!!!! However, keeping a food journal, exercise journal, AND being able to get encouragement from people with the same goals is AWESOME!!! Good Luck in your journey.
  • Live in Arlington and work in Fort Worth!
  • It use to be way simpler. When they redid that website they took out the weightloss imager, so now you have to do it the hard way!
  • Actually I know what you are talking about. The Image of you now versus what you will look like when you lose the what you need to. It's complicated yet simple to do: Go to www.mvm.com Create a model of you now Right click on the image and save image as Then change the weight of your model Right click on the image and save…
  • 4 lbs....not too shabby, but I know it won't be like that every time either.
  • Oh next question. I am not a part of the group, but I would like to be if that is okay? Just let me know the rules!
  • I think it might make you feel better to know that it would be more like 1.17%. Unless of course you weigh in the thousands of pounds :D
  • Hahaha! Yep, I was actually getting ready to post the answer. I found it just a few minutes ago. Thanks!!
  • I remember doing it about a year ago. There was a member that had a picture very similar and that is who I got the information from. Unfortunately emails get deleted after 30 days on here, otherwise I would still have the information. Its very frustrating trying to locate the program again. LOL. If I can find out, I will…
  • LOL! That's not what I was expecting. Thanks!
  • Okay so it's just another day. Another day to be depressed and stressed out. If it's not work, then it's home. Usually and more often than not, it's home. I have gotten back on the "see food and eat it" diet. NOT A GOOD THING!!! I can't even muster enough energy or motivation to think about exercising or eating remotely…
  • AGREED!!! This week seems to have been a long one, and yet we still have one more day to go.
  • Okay I was looking up intestingal gas because since I have changed my diet to incorporate more fruits and vegetables I have been experiencing ALOT more gas. According to this article, gas is a good thing: "Because the colonic gas is produced by the action of bacteria on undigested material in the colon, the nature and…
  • You have to look at the placement and proportions. In other words in the push up position all the weight is between your shoulders and easier to balance. The weight on a bar is set out on far ends past the width of your shoulders making it more difficult because you are attempting to balance and push it out. I hope that…
  • Try a good fish (ie: salmon, tilapia, or similar) or even lean pork. I use cubed ham in my salad and it is perfect!! As for the fish....a little salt, pepper, and lemon juice and you are good.
  • My sister-in-law went to weight watchers for a long time. They use to tell them that they could count 1/2 of their tea intake as water:happy: . Apparently the other half counts as flavoring and sweetener :laugh: . So that is what I do. I don't really like water at most restaurants when I go out to eat. I always get tea.…
  • I can totally simpathize with your. I have not truly been able to run since I started gaining weight a couple years ago. I use to be able to run forever, but now I am LUCKY if I can even do a couple minutes. YAY YOU!!!! Keep it up!
  • When I was in high school I was in Navy Junior ROTC and one of our instuctors was a Navy Chief. He always had a quote book at his desk, and whenever he thought someone needed that extra littlw motivation to run a little faster, push a little harder, or just be praised for what they do he would break it out. He gave me a…
  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Try to look at it this way....When you turned 30 you were 48lbs heavier than you are now that you turned 31 :happy:. That alone is something to celebrate...just don't over do it!!!
  • Okay for a lack of a better idea of where to post this, I have decided to mark this territory as it's starting ground. :laugh: Okay I have heard I don't know how many people talk about how great the k2o water and flavor packets are. So I gave in:ohwell: , I bought a SMALL box of them to try. Needless to say, drinking these…
  • I def do not make a habit of moving furniture. I work in a law office and spend 98% of my day infront of a computer. LOL. What is sad is that I have to do the samething tomorrow, because we are getting a new attorney in our office shortly and everything has to be PERFECT.
  • Does doing the Turbo Jam 20 minutes abs count as a cardio or strength? How do you log Turbo Jam:grumble: ? Another stupid question, please don't laugh:embarassed: , if I have have a desk job and I spent the whole day moving office furniture:noway: ...does that count as working out???
