  1. Yay!! Hope you love it!!
  2. I'm proud of you! I'm starting w3d1 and nervous about jumping from 1.5 min max run to 2.5. Who came up with this program anyway? I keed, I keed.
  3. Lol true! May invest in a vest myself one of these days.
  4. Love that plate! Hope you didn't drink while you ate. Here's my lunch from a few days ago.
  5. I dont mind pushing myself. Makes me feel (and get) stronger and boosts my confidence. That said, if it ever gets to where my workouts get too long and I'm losing just fine, I'm not telling the thing that I've lost weight. I like that last part you added about less is more. Tell me more!!?
  6. So does this mean it doesn't need a new battery? Wink wink
  7. Lol I knew it was gonna happen and I'm actually glad I have the hrm so I know exactly how much harder I need to work. I think I just didn't expect it to jump so drastically and so quick!! It's taken my 45 minute workout to a 1 hr. one. Darn it. now I'm doing 3 miles with Leslie (walk at home dvd's) instead of only two. Booooo! It's no wonder those close to goal are working out two hours at a time.
  8. Lol I changed my heart rate monitor info to reflect the small amount of weight I've lost since initially setting it maybe three weeks ago. Now when I work out, I'm burning about 20 calories less/workout so I'm having to do about 25% more to burn what I was burning. Does this seem right? I suppose it could need a new battery. This makes me really wonder how people woh lower bmi's than myself are burning over 1,000 calories, several days a week. Mind= boggled. I really push myself last the point that I want to quit, so these people must be dragging ass. Right? Where are you guys!? How do you do it!?
  9. I read about this all the damned time and it kinda makes me wanna eat cake or something. Sigh
  10. I loved using that til I realized there was aspartame in it!! Sad panda.
  11. I think we do during the course of any normal day, don't we? I'm not sure how fitbit works. I don't count my total burner though, only actual exercise or physical labor. This weekend I want to clean out the van and I totally plan on slapping on my polar.
  12. Laura I'm loving the weight loss success you're having no wish I could give you a big hug though and I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
  13. Even though I typically get 1200 calories a day and have lost one pound in two weeks?
  14. I wanna get to goal! Is it too late to join in?
  15. I'm reading on this throughput the day today and very much considering it. I'm so tired of losing nothing or less than a lb a week. I didn't get surgery for that, so I don't have any problem with dieting on my diet. If something is broken I try to fix it. So. What foods do I need to go out and buy for super low cal days?
  16. Following along
  17. I just enter my info manually into mfp. It's quick and easy. I wasn't in a position to spend that much either, but it was well worth it and its one of my favorite thigs. It actually motivates me to go harder and push myself.
  18. Nevermind. Except for those that see it in their email.
  19. I don't know if you exercise much but that's my saint grace. I LOVE working out, the endorphins, the sweat, the confidence it gives me vs. putting thigs in my body just because I'm bored. If I eat something I shouldn't, I work it off or ill work it off twice. If I'm feeling bore and like eating for no reason, ill go for a walk, ride my bike, do some jumping jacks, etc. get AWAY from the food. Sometimes I'll Also go so a load of laundry or kind some housework that needs to be done. Or get a glass I tea sweetened with stevia. Works for me. Otherwise, I think of weight watchers. All FRESH fruit and vegetables are zero points. That's what I eat when I'm experiencing head hunger and feeling weak. If its crap that you're eating, can you get the crap out if your house? Are you tracking what you eat? That helps a ton for me too. All that said, I am NOT perfect. Ive screwed up. There was a Cadbury egg incident. And others.
  20. I love my polar ft60!!! Really though, any polar brand that tells calories burned would have pleased me.
  21. I use a fat seat that still has the part in the middle. This one looks comfier. "Biiiiiiiicycle, biiiiiiicycle"
