Dukan Newbie - Attack phase day 1
Hi there - I am a Dukan newbie - and today is my attack phase day 1. I've been a member of MFP for a long time, but got away from it because of all the bashing I had seen on many threads of anyone who is doing anything other than mainstream to lose weight. So I went searching for some Dukan support groups, and didn't…

Hello there!
I am so glad to have found this group! I am technically doing Transformation, not BFL, but the concept is the same, just a longer challenge. I started my 18 weeks yesterday. I did BFL a bunch of years ago with great results, and in looking to get started again, I found Bill's new book and the Transformation website. Today…

So what is YOUR activity plan for the weekend?
Ok, so as y'all get to know me, you'll notice that I have a touch of OCD, and do occasionally obsessively plan out my weeks - otherwise I get complacent and will just sit on the couch and watch TV during my "downtime" (non-work and non-school time.) My activity plan is just for Sunday, because that is my only day off of…

Accountability thread...
So, is anyone interested in having some kind of accountability thread - a place where we can check in with our stats, celebrate our successes, bemoan our lousy days, and encourage one another through this journey to a healthier body?

Hi there! Here is the new thread for September - I'll make sure to put a link at the end of our old August Thread. Savery - if you're willing to do the challenge tracking, that'd be WONDERFUL!

Anyone doing Atkins?
At the risk of getting totally flamed, I thought I'd start a thread to see if there is anyone else out there following the Atkins WOE, and would like to join a group of like-minded individuals. I'm on day 2 of induction, and excited to be approaching ketosis. I'm already seeing th benefits of doing low-carb, i.e. less…

Pedometer Challenge - 10,000 Steps a day March 2010
Is anyone interested in doing a pedometer challenge? My personal goal is to get in at least 10,000 steps a day. According to many websites, this is equal to 5 miles. I'm kind of anal, so I checked it. Most sites say an average person walks 2000 steps per mile. I actually measured my stride, and my personal mile = 1980…

Resalyn's C25K Journal
July 27, 2009. Day #1. Abysmal failure. :mad: Okay, not abysmal. I tried to run when the podcast said to - and I ran....for about 20-30 seconds instead of the 60 seconds I was supposed to. Then I was too tired to run each time after that. So, here's what I did - I did a walk/powerwalk combination. I figure when I get more…
