It doesn't appear that you have a lot to drop, so it will take time...The smaller you are the harder it is. Make sure you change up your routine or you body will get used to it and wont change anything. You have to change things up for muscle/body confusion. It will keep your body guessing. Also, don't W.O. on no energy.…

The last time I actually pulled out the Wii Fit.. I had weighed myself on my scale naked, then went into living room with workout clothes on and it was pretty close. If I remember correctly like within 1-2 lbs...which would make sense due to wearing clothes at that point.

Same here... I have 20% Body fat on me, and yeah, I look like a Shar Pei in my stomach & around my knees. It's not going to go away...it's not even really getting any better... I am 42yrs old, a fitness instructor and am in the best physical condition of my life. My upper body (arms, shoulders, chest) are firm and…

Still logging...People should...It hold us accountable to what we do. Gotta own the bad and the good!! Have a great holiday!!!

LOVE listening to her advice and suggestions.. I have incorporated a LOT of what she has said into my own life and my own weight loss and my own teaching to my students. Also one I like, FAT2FIT RADIO...They have a PodCast out too that goes back for YEARS!!! VERY interesting stuff and THEY are what got me off Weight…

Was going to say the same thing....And my thought is from training and personal experience... Plus, keep in mind, you have to change up your workout routine every so often because our bodies remember repetition. Also if you added swimming recently, you are using your muscles differently and they will need rest time too as…

Good luck on your 5K..Been thinking about doing a Turkey Trot around here too, but its going to be SOOOOOOOOOOO cold!! LOL (mind you I have the Under Armor for it but still!! LOL) You NEED to give your body a rest day here and there...Sure, you can run but your body is now probably prepped for it and knows it coming so its…

I personally dont use regular sugar at all in anything...Dont even have any in my house. Currently have Splenda in the house, but will be changing over to Truvia with a couple weeks. I never notice any difference in anything I bake or cook where it calls for sugar..Again, I dont use regular sugar and havent in a couple…

It's a workout routine that, unfortunately, only instructors can get. You have to be certified in Body Pump to get it. I teach a version of it and Body Solid.. The difference for me is, I can use parts of it WITHOUT being certified in either of them. Are you wanting to know something specific?

Dont panic...Keep in mind, you are also building muscle in your legs which weighs more than fat. You will gain - lose-gain-lose...thats how this game works. Running is cardio, cardio helps burn fat as muscles help you burn all day. You are doing fine. As for the C25K program...AWESOME way to learn...Thats what I did this…

*I feel bloated and there's an acute pain just below my belly button* That alone tells me you need to see a doctor...The "I gotta go" feeling is okay if you have changed something pretty major in your diet, more fiber or something really greasy that you havent had in a long time..As for the Ramens, I get it, you were broke…

OMG, I would be ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL over that!!!! LOL

When you build your muscles, water tends to go to those spots affected.. If you are just starting out with cardio or strength workouts, you need to start slow...workout one day, take a day off, workout the 3rd day, take 4th off and so on...Give that a week or 2, then you can workout 2 days, take a day off and so on. Also,…

Be VERY proud of yourself!!!:drinker: I did my first 5k on Labor Day and did it in just over 33 min...granted there was one road we had to walk on because i was starting to lose my footing on the crappy road we were on, but I did it!!! It was SOOOOOOOOOOOO emotional!! to go from 300lbs to a 5k was HUGE for me!!! It isn't…

My simple answer is, we to a gastrointestinal dr about the same issue...started dropping the weight, but couldnt *go*. He told me to take Miralax.... He also told me I could take it daily if needed. Well, that was almost 2yrs ago. I use the WalMart version of it, but I take a cap full every morning and every night. On a…

Very good reading... Thanks for sharing...Have issues with some of the calculations but it was very good reading..

Personally, I think 1lb a day is a little much. Your body will fluctuate on a daily basis. From the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, you will gain upwards of 2lbs alone...dropping weight fast isnt always a good thing..

I LOVE Fat2Fit...I will be watching to see how this works for you. I came to this site because of them...I have several issues trying to figure out what I really should be eating as I have dropped 130+ lbs so the measurements they ask for arent exactly accurate because of the excess skin..I also have a LOT of muscle on me…

Syntha 6 is NUMMY but it is 200 cals for 1 scoop!! Thats the only thing I dont like about it...On the other end tho, gives you everything your body needs after a good hard workout!!

Ya know what...That makes everything you have done in your life to date, TOTALLY WORTH IT!!! I love her!! You are very lucky!!! :heart:

The motivation comes from within...Believe me, it takes a lot of motivation....You have to have the mindset to do this.... You have the desire to do this...But it sounds like you dont have the motivation or discipline yet. Its all within you... You have to want this for you...Not for someone else, you! I will quote you…

On the old points system, you counted calories..Now you dont. EVERYTHING you eat has calories...and I mean EVERYTHING!!! Watermelon for heavens sakes, 1C is 45 cals...BUT on the PP, you can eat ALL THE FRUIT AND VEGGIES YOU WANT (corn is an exception because of the fat in the milk). SO, people use fruit and veggies to…

The PB2 is AWESOME!! I love peanut butter but not willing to take in the calories or fat from regular Skippy or Jiff (OH NUM). However, the fat & oils from real peanut butter are good for you, but really, I only want the taste. When you mix up the PB2 it gives you a lot...for me, its 2 sandwiches worth... As for the tofu…
