When I was working out, burpees were my favorite! For some reason that particular move pushed me to a better workout.

I may have to look closer at that video. I also have shoulder issues. but really don't want to add any more weight. I picked up close to 30 pounds while I was working (sitting at a desk ) :sick :sick:sick

That one might be a little rough on the shoulders, especially if doing a push-up when you're down. Good to start slow and see what your body thinks, though. Depending on what's wrong with your shoulders, it could help to strengthen them up!

I'm currently in the midst of a diet overhaul. Not for weight, but other malfunctions of my body. I'm a processed food junkie...out of sheer laziness.

Fitbit, My Fitness Pal. Link together, record your food. If there's a recipe they wouldn't have (mom's chicken soup, etc.) you can enter your recipe or just pick an entry that seems similar and log that. It will calculate your current weight, goal, calories eaten, calories burned (per fitbit--link to your fitbit account by following the prompts--easy even for me), and calories left to eat if you were to burn no more that day. This adjusts as you burn more calories/eat more food/sit on the couch... When the calories left get to zero, either stop eating or exercise more.

For most people, if you don't record your food, you will eat MUCH more than you realize. You will also eat foods that have way more calories than you thought. If you want to know about a food before eating it, just look it up but don't enter it unless you decide to eat it.

You will lose weight if you do this, no matter where the calories come from. If you'd rather get rid of fat and keep muscle, then exercise. Do a mix of aerobic (such as walking) + anaerobic (resistance such as weights or using your body as the weight). Also, keep the carbs focused on nutrient dense, low-glycemic-index whole foods and generally focus on protein above other nutrients--preferably meat, whole dairy & eggs. You can do this as a vegetarian/vegan, but you'll need to study how to do it properly or your health will suffer.
 
Congratulations on making it to day seventeen, Kiki!
You can get through this, ShannonR! Don't put a cigarette in your mouth -- put a baby carrot there instead. You can do this!
Good luck, Ursuline Chick!
