It has taken me 4 months to lose 24 lbs, so not as fast as I would like, but I do not feel deprived either. I have also been working out and have added weight training...hoping I'm turning some of the fat into muscle.

I will admit, I'm no expert at this. I have been up and down on the scale more times than I can count...this time I was up to 188lbs and am 5'2". But now I am 56 and have developed high blood pressure. Due to life stress, I took solice in eating and not paying attention. I stopped exercising and had a daily routine of…

I do not have DOMS but I am in my fifties and getting back to exercising. I have had alot of success with swimming and water aerobics....great workouts if you get creative and easy on muscle soreness.

I work out 5 mornings a week at 5am and get sick if I eat that early but have to have my coffee to get me going. I then try to eat some protein right when I get home and will then eat something like a banana mid morning if work allows.

I was born and raised in Wisconsin and although most of my family still lives there, my husband and I have not lived there for 25 years. We are huge Packer fans and our dog is even named Brett. Live in Colorado near Golden.

We went to this place once and really enjoyed it. Did you have good experience?

Don't get this often but today heard from one of my clients, "are you losing weight because you're looking good". Now maybe I should be concerned because he is newly divorced!!!!????

Live in Arvada for the past 6 years.

I have been trying to figure out why she has not been voted off? She is toxic to her team. Who would want to be around her?

my workout instructor told me today based on my excercize (5 days a week) I should be eating about 110 grams of protein for my weight (159). that seems like alot and mostly never could get there but I also am always over the MFP amount. 1000 calories is very low and you can put yourself in starvation mode where your body…

1. It was a beautiful, sunny Colorado day today. 2. Got to go skiing for the first time this year and thanks to all of those squats at the gym, my quads didn't start burning until about 5 hours into skiing. 3. I spent the day with my fun and lovely 16 year old daughter.

that is too funny!!

Growing up in Wisconsin, I have eaten lots of cheese, but there are plenty of other things that are worse for you and do not have the protein and calcium that cheese offers. I would think the American Dairy Council would have a problem with this one!

I am no expert on this as I am having a binge day myself today, but I got on here and wrote on my blog. I am keeping it like a diary to record my feelings and to help me learn to manage those feelings before I let food and drink manage them. I had bad day at work today and am currently not totally happy with some of my…

You look amazing! You should be so proud of the accomplishments you have achieved!!!

I would love this challenge. Please keep me posted.

I work at a bank and a customer today wanted me to "fix" his credit for him.

try extended flys with weights and another good one that I learned from my fitness intructor is to use a bousu ball and holding a weight in hands sit on bousu towards edge and go backwards extending arms up over head. Slowly bring arms up forward over head towards front of body and stand up and extend arms over head.…

I am so happy to hear that you are succesful on your own and tried this way before gastric bypass surgery. My husband and I have a friend who died of complications from gastric bypass surgery that he never should have had. I also have a friend whose mother had gatric bypass surgery and had extreme complications afterwords.…

You do not mention if you are getting help with this disease? Speaking with both a psychologist and nutritionist would be the most important steps you could take to learn how to manage this. You are taking an important step here, too, by reaching out for support.

for me excercizing first thing in the morning gets my day (and attitude) off to a great start. I have a family so I have learned that if I do not give myself the firt part of the day, I give myself no part of the day. You have to find the time for yourself that is best and make it a regular part of your schedule. You…

Do something you like. You already said that swimming is fun foryou so find an indoor pool and join. Or change it up and find a class that you like to do. Try a few and dont give up!!! I found a class that mixes strength training with cardio. The instructor mixes it up so you never know what to expect and it is great!
