losingjusme

i truly do not believe i would be where i am now if i didnt get off my behind and exercise almost daily. i follow the bandster eating rules about 90% of the time so the working out helps a bunch.

i am currently low - carbing it. i post my food every day on my blog. losingjusme.blogspot.com

i have donated everything except 1 pair of pants and 1 dress. those are going in my 'comparison' pics when i hit goal. i do have all my old t-shirts though, they are great to work out in. i still have tummy issues (visual) and cant stand work out tops that "fit".

this is a great thread! this just happened. a person i worked with earlier this year asked me how much i had lost, i told her 122 lbs and i have quite a bit to go still. "no, you couldnt be THAT fat" ... nice. fq very much.

i'd love to see that thread but i dunno how some of the non-exercisers would take it. they may see it as an attack of sorts ... "stop picking on me b/c i dont work out" ... etc...

i use both at my gym and am starting to really enjoy the bike as well. i tend to stay on longer when i am on the bike, but work harder when i am on the elliptical. i am looking at ellipticals for my house though. i need a really good one.

Julie & Betty, how are you doing on your goals? i have logged my food every day and it seems to be working. it really motivates me to push just a bit more than i normally would when i am working out. keep up the great work!

7.75 miles on bike - 5 to 7 resistance 1/2 hour with trainer. great workout!

faith, i couldnt agree with you more! when i was about 370ish, i couldnt even fit in 30/32 pants (much less jeans) and my top was probably about 30/32 if not higher right now (i am 5'9") i seem to be stuck at my size 20 or 22 pants (20 if stretchy denim) and 18/20 22/24 top depending on the cut. i cannot wait to shop in non-plus sized stores!!!

Thanks!! it's funny, now when i go somewhere for answers, it's here ... lol ... google? they aren't nearly as friendly ... :heh:

jadrad, i feel your pain! just stick to your plan and break thru it. you can do it!!!

i've been back on track for a couple of weeks now, just forget to post ... thanks!!

i use myfooddiary.com and love it. there is a monthly fee for it though. i didnt care for fitday... not sure why not

today was only 7 minutes on the bike and 55 mins with my trainer. it was great! she makes me sweat so much more than my old trainer. the good thing is, is that we do different things each time. i really like the variety. :biggrin1:

twy_marie, looks like the original poster hasnt been here since 10/17/06...

Welcome Wendy!

vex, i really dont think you'll regret it... i LOVE it!! i have to be honest and mention that i've slacked off a bit lately, but i've just been soooo tired from work (i know, excuses, excuses..) i am committing to wiiiiii at least 3 times a week.

Molly, Try a google search or go to bodybugg.com. that will give you alllll the info you need. i also think there is more about it earlier in this thread.
