Rep Power: 79 | | | I reckon anyone whos lost more than 30lb clearly has the stickability to go the whole hog way and needs a pat on the back.
10-20lb is okay, but 30lb+ is most definatly somebody whos put the effort in and picked up the boxing gloves ready to fight. |

Rep Power: 8 | | | Lost 20 pounds the first 30 days I am so happy that I have lost 20 pounds in 30 days. I have not been starving myself or been very hungry. My low carb diet with lots of vegetables and fruit is certainly working. I am also beginning to feel more motivated to begin exercising again. Reading how well all of you are doing here certainly helps me keep focusing on my goals and hang on tight to my hope of being able to run again. 
I still have a long journey ahead of me. |

Rep Power: 0 | | I just have to brag on myself because i'm kinda new at this whole working out thing. But I joined a gym about 2 weeks ago cuz working out on my own was really not working for me. Anyway in the first 2 weeks I was there I'd get on the eliptical machine and run on there for about 25 minutes and i'd barely complete 2 miles, well today, after taking the weekend off cuz I wasn't feeling well I forced myself to get off my butt and go work out, and when I got on the eliptical machine to do my 25 minutes of cardio on there I didn't have a specific goal or anything, and I didn't even pay close attention to how far I was going or how many calories I burned like I normally do, but I did push myself to work a little harder cuz I hadn't worked out all weekend, well heres the part of the long winded bragging, I looked at the screen 2 times before the end of my workout once at 9minutes, and then at 20 minutes cuz it changed me to a cool down and it flashed on the screen, well when I looked at it at 9 minutes I had completed 1.65 miles    where it normally takes me 12-14 minutes to get 1 mile, and when I looked at it at the 20 minute mark I was at 3.10 miles, in 20 whole minutes...so i'm really excited for myself!! and I had to share with someone!! |

Great job for #1 making yourself go back to the gym even though you didn't feel like it -that's so key in making this work! - and #2 for building up your strength & endurance without even realizing it!! Great job!! |

Rep Power: 9 | | I'm going to brag a bit about myself.
Well, tomorrow marks the one month since I decided to get serious and start working my butt off. And since i started recording everything i've been doing.
I have been losing 1-4 pounds every week, and i'm really proud of that. I haven't given up yet, although, as expected, i've had a few slips!
18 pounds later, i've never felt better about myself for what i've done. I'm ready to make it to 30 pounds, and i'm ready to meet the goals i've made.
I'm only a few pounds away from breaking the 200s, and i'm pretty excited as silly as that sounds.
I'm joining dance again, i'm going to start going to the gym and taking yoga, and i'm looking forward to the future for the first time.
I feel like i'm the strong person I always wanted to be. |  | | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
