I'm so excited to get mine now! Its in the mail!!!!

I get that alot :laugh:

Good luck New wardrobe .. always a good motivation

try best buy - my wonderful boyfriend got my version on ebay around 30 bucks

I found a website that list your local thrift stores. I'm a big thrift shopper and there were ones that I always go to but then there were ones that I've never heard of before. I can't wait to check them out. (xmas money shopping) http://www.thethriftshopper.com/ I hope this helps those people that keep losing weight and…

Thats like the contest I'm setting up. We're going to put in about 50 dollars. It will last 6 months (we're teachers. so good ending point is june) And whoever has the biggest percentage of loss wins the money. Its great motivation cause I love buying clothes. I'm actually cutoff right now until I go down a size. So if I…

Best solution - get a heart rate monitor. It is the best investment I have made towards my weight loss.

I'm a competitor so i'm starting a 'biggest loser' contest at work. We'll start in the new year. So far I have had many responses. Maybe you can set something like that up for motivation.

I can't wait to get to the 250s :tongue:

I asked for fitness coach 2 days ago. My bf said he got it for me. I'm so excited. It seems to be just like a workout video but it gives you different routines. I need change. I'm even debating getting the don king boxing when it comes out cause boxing really gets my heart racing. I've joined a gym 4 months ago and I'm…

Holy crap ... how do you not reach 1200 calories? I feel fat now :grumble: All I can say is that you should eat your calories because if you don't you will slow down your metabolism.

I haven't tried the Jillian game ... I've only heard horrible things about it though

Nice post - I must admit ... as a teacher myself. I'm enjoying my snow day as well :-) But yeah - difficult job but yet one of the best

Has anyone bought this game yet? Is it good?

Maintain over holidays - thats my goal too!

I walked out of salvation army once with 6 pairs of jeans and 3 shirts for $30. As I said I'm obsessed with jeans. Thank you everyone for revealing such personal info. From what I gather by the time I hit my goal weight I will be around a size 16 (I hope). Also I was at the doctors looking at the bmi chart and morbidly…

I love thrift shopping!

I have a goal weight but more importantly I have a goal jean size. I'm obsessed with jeans. Anyways, just for some added motivation to see where I have to go. What is your weight and jean size? It will help me get an idea. I know I know .. we are all different. I think I'm going to be brave and buy a couple sizes down in…

Thank you .. that helps!

my ipod doesn't hold a battery charge so its dead to me ... I want to downgrade and get a shuffle cause I really don't need much .. I just want music when I workout. Anyways, does anyone know if I can use the same itunes on my computer? Will those songs automatically go on the shuffle or do I get to choose what songs since…

Nice job buying a gym membership. As for money, I feel your pain. I gave up my digital cable and dvr. It saves me $40 bucks - which is the exact amount for my monthly gym membership. But it is worth it. Not only am I going to the gym and helping out my body. I'm not a couch potato anymore cause there is nothing on tv…

yeah .. the obese word kinda sucks. I'm morbidly obese ... my fat is haunting me which is quite morbid :laugh: It doesn't help that when I'm on my wii fit the bar that measures body type is trying to jump off the tv screen.

This post made me smile :happy: Nice to see you're a supportive man

I just looked at your profile and your xmas goal .. you hit it already! Congrats :bigsmile:

Thank you ... that was very helpful! :happy:

I've been around the sun 26 times. But my real age is 24. I'm extremely overweight but I think - not smoking and drinking helps take care of my body. Plus of course, what I'm doing for it now. I really do believe my body is a temple - its just those darn baked goods ...they get me everytime!:grumble:

Wow - I'm from the lehigh valley too. Techinically, I'm right in between the lehigh valley and poconos. I'm a rebel don't like to be boxed in to any one area :happy: Congrats on the 5k. I would have placed 1349th :tongue:

I finally got a heart rate monitor (polar f6). Anyways, after a workout being in my target range it says that 45% fat was burned (I assume fat calories) Yesterday, I did a maize maze for an hour (best time yet) and I couldn't push myself hard enough to get in the target range (bf was slowing me down) Anyways, I recorded…

I added to my personal exercising list. Personally what i usually do is 15 minutes of yoga, 5 minutes of strength training, and 10 minutes of areobic exercise. I made an estimated guess on how many calories were lost. (I said 200) Although, now i have a heart rate monitor and next time I'll be more accurate. But since my…

Congrats :happy:
