You have great reasons to do this & the idea of mini-goals is a good one. Good luck & stick with it!

More veggies for better nutrition! I started the Xtrain Fit 12 week progam 2 weeks ago; I'll complete that first, and then make a new fitness goal.

Walking would be a great start; you need to burn calories to shrink your stomach. Squats will help with your butt.

There is definitely a difference, keep up the good work!

If you are going to binge, carrots are better than chips or cookies!

4/1 ran 2 10 minute miles 4/3 insanity fast & furious

I'd like to join as well. I ran yesterday & today is a rest day for me b/c I'll run tomorrow as well.

Increase your calories. I've been logging in to MFP for years & was following the recommended 1200. I lost initially & then plateaued for a YEAR. I increased my calories to a couple hundred extra a day & am happy to report I lost another 12 after that!

All the girl scouts I ran across offered the option of buying & donating to soldiers overseas. So far I've bought 6 boxes, none for me!

Walden Farms is zero calorie. I like the chipotle ranch!

If your insurance doesn't require a referral, go see a GI doctor.

Wow!

It's called thrive mexican crockpot chicken. I do crockpot on Sundays. And it's delicious!

Wow! Great job!

It sounds like you need a nutritionist. Your skin & energy levels will improve if you lose eating healthy foods - it sounds like you were going about it by not eating? Don't give up, just find a new route. Your body needs fuel!

I make "egg white muffins" & have them for about 3 days. Egg whites (equivalent of 8), veggies, 3 tbsp salsa - mix it all together & bake til they are finished. Make sure they are completely cooled off before you store them in the fridge to avoid sogginess. Easy for on-the-go.

If you give up, you'll have to start over from scratch when you decide to lose weight again. Make the commitment for the lifestyle change & keep going. You don't want to be at rock bottom again.

I'm working on my masters too & for example have spent over 9 hours studying in the last 2 days. So b/n that & work & my relationship & family, my workouts have gone from 7 days a week to 3 in a good week. You can only do the best you can do though & it isn't possible to do it all!

You look great & I'm sure you feel fantastic!

I ran 2 miles & then did level 2 of the shred. That's my 5th day of shred.

Just finished a 2 mile run & day 5 of the shred.

Great job!!!

I'd love to join & I actually started on Sunday. No shred today b/c I went to the chiropractor, but will start back tomorrow.

I am single & live alone so I can't afford to buy a huge variety of groceries.

You're doing this for you so just keep up your hard work. If she joins you, great. If not, you just get your workout in & keep going!

I love the steak & shrimp one.

I have this same problem as well - but I'm noticing if I eat really healthy all day (no processed food, etc), it's not as bad.

Cheers! Glass of red cause it has antioxidants. (or b/c I just wanted it)

You look great!

Very!
