Yoga Addict
So, I started doing yoga about two weeks ago and I'm totally addicted! It's the best workout I've ever had and I feel so great! I've already started to notice results in my body. Can't wait to go to class today!! I strongly recommend it to anyone. Even if you aren't flexible or anything like that, the instructors are…

Just Starting Training for a Half-Marathon
I decided to start training for the Detroit Half-Marathon in October! I have always enjoyed running and one of my good friends was visiting this weekend and she was talking about doing a half-marathon, so I looked up when a local one would be, and it is October. Plus, this gives me plenty of time to build up endurance..I…

Shamrock Shakes
Uh oh..it's that time of year again! I absolutely LOVE Shamrock Shakes from McDonalds, and they only sell them around this time of year for St. Patrick's Day. I have decided that I will not give them up completely, but to only get a small and not as often as I usually would!!

Wii Fit says "I'm Normal!!"
So, I've been doing the Wii Fit everyday for a month now and watching my food portions. Every time I went to weigh in on the Wii Fit, I was always on the border of "Overweight" and "Normal" and I FINALLY stepped on today and it said I was "Normal" weight! YAY!! It was such a good feeling!

It's been a while..
Hey everyone, I'm not new to the site, but it's been a while since I've been on. I've had a crazy life since school started in September, but I've decided to take on 2009 with a vengence!! I got the Wii Fit for Christmas and have been playing it every day for a week, I'm hoping that it will be a good jump start on getting…

P90x?
Okay, so I've seen people post about this on here before but I never knew what it was until I saw the info-mercial on TV today. It looks like an interesting program, but I don't want to invest over 100 dollars into something that doesn't really work well. I have been doing the Biggest Loser DVD's for a while and found that…

Garlic Pesto Tuna Salad Sandwiches
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and REALLY liked it. It was something different to do with tuna. And it only took me about 10 minutes to make, so it's great for those evenings you don't have a lot of time to put something huge together. INGREDIENTS 2 (6 ounce) cans tuna in water, drained 2 tablespoons mayonnaise 1…

HORRIBLE week/weigh-in and a vacation!!
Hey everyone, Well, let's just say it's been a bad week for eating/working out. After my ordeal last weekend (my house got broken into and my partner's laptop was stolen) I have been eating horribly and not working out at all. I got on the scale this morning and gained 4.2 lbs!!!!!!! I knew it was going to be bad, but…

OT: An eye-opener
I know that I don't post on here a whole lot, but I do read the messages and follow the stories on here, but I do consider you guys like a family to me so I wanted to let you know what happened last night. My house was broken into during the middle of the night. In all of the places I've ever lived in, I've never had this…

I won't give up...
So, after 5 weeks of consistently loosing, I gained this week. I know it's because I went over my calories a couple of days and I wasn't exercising as much as I have been, on top of that I've been under a bit of stress the last couple of weeks. BUT, regardless of all of this, I refuse to give up!! I'm getting close to my…

I'm glad THAT'S over...
Wow, this weekend was quite the calorie fest!!! I ate out Friday night and for both lunch and dinner on Saturday..so I went over about 1000 calories both of those days. Then, I went to my parents' house today and got fed a wonderful homecooked meal and since I hadn't been home in a long time, I got the Easter candy they…

I'm a loser..FINALLY!
Well, after 3 weeks of gaining weight by "trying it my own way" I decided to get back to counting calories (I've stuck with the exercise throughout) and I lost a pound this week! I even convinced my partner to get on board and count his calories too, and he lost 6 pounds this week! It was great motivation for both of us to…

I hate my scale!
So, I had my second weigh-in this morning and I gained 1/2 a lb! Now, I know this isn't a huge deal or anything, but it pushed me back over 180lbs, and I was SOOO happy to be out of there! I excersized every single day this week and I ate decently too! I'm not going to let it hold me down or anything, but my ego is bruised…

I'm new to the site!
Hey everyone, I found this site yesterday. I have been having problems getting motivated to exercise. I'm a teacher and it is so hard for me to get up early and exercise before school and by the time I get home after being with the kids all day, I'm exhausted and the last thing I want to do is work out. Does anyone have…
