Joined Snap Fitness..How was your first gym experience?
When you first started going were you uncomfortable? Did it take awhile to adjust or did it not bother you? I'm really nervous about working out in front of other people. I have been walking/jogging(recently a little) since April. Along with my diet I have lost almost 30lbs with A LOT MORE to go still. I have never been a…

I drag three almost 7yr olds to the grocery store, bank, paying bills, school shopping, post office and where ever else I have to go and it takes so long we are eating out for lunch and dinner because it takes so long I am not…

So what should sodium,sugar, carb and protein levels be?
I just pulled the report looking at the sodium and sugar levels because I have hit a lot of plateaus and I see that my sodium level and sugar levels are all over the place. On day they are 844 and most days between 2,000 and 4,000. I am trying to clean this up some so I just want to know what I SHOULD be shooting for when…

Today I have a NSV to share...
We went walking on the walking trail today. I always have to stop at the benches because my back hurts so bad usually we stop 2x's before we're even halfway(at the halfway there is a bench beside the creek the kids like to play and get in the water). Today I stopped at the halfway bench and the end of the trail! I made it…

OMG..I completely BLEW IT today..I made HORRIBLE
choices at lunch and dinner. We have family in from out of town and we were out doing stuff all day which means we ate out both lunch and dinner. Not even good places cheap places (Taco Bell and Sonic) I didn't go over on calories(still have 115 left with zero exercise calories) BUT I am feeling like crap. I feel so guilty…

Exercise endurance question
I have been walking between 3-5x a week since April. When I first started I couldn't walk for 5mins without having to stop because my back was killing me and my legs would be almost numb(I was 304lbs at 5'2" when I started) now I am done 24lbs and been at this a little bit and I have been able to walk about 10-15mins at a…

Lean Ground Turkey "hamburger steak" calories ???
OK..I made "hamburger steak" tonight with gravy and onion. I used lean ground turkey instead of hamburger and but I can't find a calorie count for it. The original recipe shows it being 319 calories for 1 patty but I am wondering if this would be a big difference in the ground turkey calories that I used. Any ideas...I…

The corn was scraped from the cob so it was grilled corn and chicken and steamed broccoli....and it was DELISH! My boys ate it up...(they ate more broccoli than they did…

Ok to go over on protein or/and fats?
Some days when I look back at the day I see that I will have -1 or -25 on my protein for the day and I'm wondering if this is ok? I have had a couple days(where I ate like crap) and went over on carbs or fat counts for the day and I know it's not good to go over on those but is it just as bad to go over on my protein? How…

I JUST HAVE TO TELL SOMEONE...I AM DOING IT
In April when I started my change I started walking to my mailbox and back. Now let me tell you my mailbox is about MAYBE 100ft from my porch steps. I would walk out there and back about 10x's a day because it EXHAUSTED ME. I am telling you just doing that I almost needed to use my inhaler but it wasn't an asthema attack…

A little sad that I can't see any difference w/20lb loss
Twenty pounds down and I can't see ANY difference. I'm a little sad..maybe it's because I am "bigger" than most so it will take more of a loss to "see" a difference. The first is before and the second is after losing 20lbs. How much do you have to lose to really start to see a difference?? Angel Before:…
