It is 38.5 inches and by looking at the rest of my body, it seems completely out of portion and it is totally not healhty. I am losing 1 to 2 pounds per week consistently so counting calories and exercising are…

Craving water?
It seems the more water I drink the more water I want. I drink about 120 oz a day and am floating in water and still want more. I am not sure if this is related to sodium or what. Does anybody else seem like they can't get enough water to drink?

No More Excuses - Week 3
Congratulations to JustJack with biggest percentage lost so far. I am still waiting on lots of weights, will update the chart this evening. Thanks to Yvonneh :smile: the challenge is to move an additional 10 minutes a day. This means if you plan to exercise 30 minutes then you need to 10 more minutes sometime during the…

What is TRX?
Signed up for a gym today and in the membership fee is free classes. One of them on the sheet is TRX. I could call the gym but thought I would just ask here.
-
Trying to decide if I should join the gym?
The gym membership here is $30 per month. I used to pay that amount for water aerobic and that was a set schedule, not at the gym, the gym doesn' t have a pool. The gym has great exercise and weight traing equipment . There is also free classes that are offered at set times. I could walk / run here now like I am doing and…

My 5k results
:smile: I ran / walk the 5K today and my time was 35 minutes 29 seconds. I came in 6th in my division. My legs were killing me and I just kept pushing, I knew it was a mental block and my body could take it. I was so proud when I finished and they told me my time. I was shooting for 45 minutes and my really hopeful goal…

Is this the start of HIIT?
Am I off on the right track? What am I suppose to be doing? I just rode my exercise bike, also works my arms, for 5 minute warm-up, then did 1 minute intervals as fast as I could go bringing my heart rate on my HRM to 100% or higher, then did two minutes of slower but still good pace heart rate in 80%, then 1 minute of…

Sleep, sleep, sleep!
I have gotten back on the fitness bandwagon after being off since April. I gained all weight I had lost except 11 pounds back. I had quit exercising and my diet was horrid again. I have since started eating breakfast again, which I had stopped doing, eat lunch and dinner and small snacks. My calories are set at 1410 before…

Back again!
HI, I started on here in January and lost 24 pounds and was so proud of myself. Went through a rough time mentally with the whole weight loss thing and quit the board in May. Decided I really do want to do this and am going to start back up today. My faith in myself is low but with my mom's and my best friend's support and…

My pic from two months ago!
I posted a new AV today and was looking at the pics in my profile. I can't believe the difference in my face since January 1st. If you go to my profile the pic of me in front of the red door is my January pic and the pic with my dogs is today! When I get discouraged (which seems like alot) I think of small accomplishments…

I have came a long ways.....
On January 1st, I rode my dual exercise bike for 7 minutes. Today, 10 weeks later, I rode for an hour and burnt 633 calories on my HRM!!!! My goal was to burn 500 caloires, but I just keep going! :smile:
-
I hate this!
I am not sure how to even explain what I am complaining about. It is my stomach, it is the weirdest thing, I will notice that it is looking so much smaller and then the next thing I know I have two stomaches or it looks that way, one up top and one below and I actually have a waist. Then is one big stomach in a week or so…

Mini Trampoline
Is jumping on the trampoline good for you? Does it count as exercise? Thanks!!

I am now in the overweight catergory!!
The scale was 163.5 this morning which officially moved me from "obese" to overweight"!!! :smile: I have lost 16.5 pounds since the beginning of January and I know that MFP was made it so much easier. It is wonderful to know that any time of day or night somebody is going through exactly what I am going through and is on…

I am sitting here crying and it is for a stupid reason
We were going to go to our church's Valentine's dinner tonight, invited family and friends to go with us and I even bought a new shirt. I asked politely what the menu was so I could plan according. Well, our little girl got sick and now we can't go and to make matters worse because I was upset I ate 7 pieces of chocolate.…

Do you ever not exercise so you don't have to eat the calori
I ate good today and did a walk / run for 300 calories today and I had only 100 calories left on my caloreis for the day including my exercise calories. I wanted to go ride my exercise bike this evening and burn some energy but then I would have had to eat and I am full. Do you ever not do a second exercise so you don't…

January was a great start!
January was when I decide to make this commitment to lose weight, it has now been a month and I am down 11.5 pounds and am so much more active and stronger. It is great. I am so glad I found this site and all the support on it. Thanks! :flowerforyou:

I kept up with them and won!
I know this sound ridicilous, but I am so very happy. I went with my daughter to her church group tonight because it was parent's night and they have game time. Her game time was with the 3rd through 6th graders. I kept up with them through all the games, we ran lots of laps, we did relays, we played a football throwing…

Same thing every day?
I am sure this has been asked a million times before but I am having trouble finding it. Every morning for the last two weeks I have rode my exercise bike and then for the last 10 days or so, I have been walking. My question is, do I do this every day all week long and that is okay. Or do I rest a day or what? I enjoy both…

A small victory!
I started with MFP two weeks ago and also started exercising. The first day I rode my exercise bike for 8 minutes. Today I rode for 25 minutes and have slowly gotten faster and faster. I rode just over 6 miles today. I feel so good, the feeling is motivating itself. :smile:
