June Starters (2009)
Well I took the liberty of starting a new thread. I was worried perhaps the reason we have been so quiet is that the July date on the old one was throwing people off that haven't been around in a while. I have been thinking, what about a challenge? We have not done one in months and it may help those of us that have been…

What is your split
I found in the past higher protein combined with working out helped me lose weight and have energy. I am changing my split to 40% fat, 40% carbs and 20% fat. Anyone had success with this split? Or would you recommend another split? All I know is higher protein and healthy carbs are all that work for me. It is my intention…

Still in the game-June Starters (2009)
So I thought I would move us down to motivation and support but I have no objection if anyone wants it moved back up. I thought since we have so many of our missed members returning this year we might want to change things up a bit. Hope to see lots of updates from my fellow JS. I need a little hand holding. :wink:

Vegan Cleanse
I am thinking about doing a vegan cleanse and was wondering if anyone can offer any input and or what reading materials I should look to for help and suggestions. I am not sure I have an interest in becoming vegan entirely however I have entertained the idea so I would love a great cookbook resource because if my food…

Well happy last Monday in June. I can't believe it. So if I had of had the start last June I had this June I would still be 40 pounds heavier and a whole lot more miserable. I had a horrible weekend. I did not get a workout in and I ate very poorly. So I am up a little( I think 0.8- but I am not 100% sure of my last weigh…

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend. Well I am holding at my gain from last week, so I am going to change my ticker... LW 146 CW 146 I have got to stop snacking in the evenings. I hadn't snacked for the most part in almost a year and now it seems every night I snack. I know better, but even though I am telling…

Well I didn't see it started so I thought I would get it going.... I know it is a holiday weekend for most of us, so most of use probably went overboard. Lord knows I did and the weekend isn't even over yet, although I have good intentions for today. I don't think I am going to weigh in this week because the number would…

Green Lentils
I just bought my first bag. Anyone have any kick butt recipes they can share?? I will try anything, but the spicier and flavorful the better. Thanks in advance...

Almond Milk
So this may be a silly question but I enjoy quick hassle free trips to the grocery store... Where do I find almond milk. I don't think I have ever seen it, but then again I wasn't looking. Also if you have tried almond milk... What do you think? I hate soy drink (although to be fair I have only tried it twice) Right now I…

Morning June Starters. Hope everyone had a great weekend and all the moms a wonderful Mother's day. I weighed in this morning the exact same as last week (148.2) it was disappointing because I was down to 146.8 Saturday morning. It was not unexpected though. I took a weekend off. I did not eat well. I did not exercise. So…

What?? Well no Wonder!
So I have a Nordic Track Elliptical. I love it. I have used it to take off my initial weight. I have been stuck though for about 3 months now. I see people put in their calories on an elliptical that are much lower than mine all the time. I knew mine probably overestimated my burn but since I managed to lose 40 pounds and…

Well this is how tired I am I just went and copied the link from the old board to post here. Wow. My weight is the same this week. I am really proud of my exercise though I met and passed my goal and I had a crazy busy week. My goal was 2.5 hours and I did 3 hours 40 minutes. I am going to bump my exercise goal this week…

HRM Recommendations
I think I am going to ask my husband for a HRM for Mother's Day. I think I will most likely end up with the Polar F6 because I like the fact that it is watch like and not an arm band, but I don't want to get one that is not as good just because I don't want everyone to know I am wearing one. So give me your opinions. Which…

Blueberry Yogurt??
Anyone have an idea of what I should do with all the blueberry yogurt I have in my fridge? Everyone hates it in my house but I think if I can disguise it as something else I could get it eaten up. (It is the left over from the 3- 24 assorted packs I purchased last week , so I think I have 18 individual containers in all)…

Happy Monday Everyone! I have a bad week last week, I am not sure what will get me over this hump I am in. I am going to try this week to get back to logging. Got in all my workouts in and an extra and again ate well up to the weekend ( but the weekend was horrible). Exercise goal 2.5 hours. Achieved 3 hours. LW 148.4 TW…

Muscle Conditioning and Toning
I am about 12 pounds from my initial weight loss goal, I am planning on adding in some muscle condition soon. I lost all this weight by sticking to the elliptical mostly. I do 30 minutes of cardio 5 days a week. I am looking for 2 things... 1) Is it okay to replace 2 days a week of cardio with conditioning ( I would most…

Hey June Starters! Hope everyone had a great week/weekend. I am not expecting much from my Wednesday weigh in since my effort was minimal this past week. I am starting to feel like a broken record. This is a new week and I plan to conquer whatever it is that has me stuck. I think perhaps I am suffering from SAD, I have…
