Week 1, day 2 of Country Heat ✔
Even with as hilariously uncoordinated I am, I am picking up the moves and again was shocked at how sweaty I was! Its a little silly, but I'm really enjoying it, I just hope the results are just as exciting!!!
Hope everyone is hacing a motivated day!1 -
So far I'm still on track with my workouts and running plan. I'm on week 6 day 4 tomorrow morning. It will be my last time doing workout 5 & 6.
but the unknown is ahead... 
My food in take isn't perfect but my better than before...baby steps.

Been out of town or having the stomach bug, but I will get my workouts in for the week.
@marissaBelvins220 country heat looks fun and maybe could help my dance skills.1 -
Still getting my morning workouts done...today was my last time doing workout 5, tomorrow last of workout 6.....can't believe that I'm halfway through this program!

Great Job to you both @1TheQueenB and @trisbrudt you guys are doing awesome!!!! Super inspiring!!!
I'm on day 4 of Country Heat! I'm still uncoordinated and can't figure out a couple moves but I'm learning the routine and it's still really fun. I've still been running in the evening bUT skipped it tonight, I'm feeling unmotivated and had a really long day.... I'll get back at it tomorrow! 5k is next week!!!1 -

Hi! Can I join you guys? I just completed the week 1, day 2 workout.2
-
@jsmith0724 Please do join us! Sorry for taking so long to respond!
I'm at my halfway point and I'm thinking that I need to review and revamp my diet...I have the workouts down but the food is more important! I want to maximize my efforts! I keep considering counting points vs. Low carb eating vs. counting calories....probably have about 20 pounds to go. I'm afraid of low carb cause I've been running so much. ..almost 40 miles since the month began...1 -
Hey everyone! Today marks the end of my first week of Country Heat, it's been real sweaty, and I've lost a little over 2 lbs since starting which to be honest I'm a little surprised. I haven't been great on my diet but the workouts have been really fun, so it's getting easier to keep up.
Have a great weekend everyone!
BUT don't let it spoil all the hard work you've put in this past week!1 -
Hello! I missed yesterday's workout... I need to make sure I complete it first thing in the mornings, especially on the weekends. I did complete workout #3 today which was the cardio #1. Those running mans are the worst! I haven't been paying close attention to my eating this weekend but I am going to try my best to track everything starting tomorrow.2
-
Bahahaha! No joke!!!! those running mans KILLED me.... Every. Single. Time! @jsmith0724
Great job on staying committed, and picking back up where you left off!!! That's an accomplishment in itself!
I had to take yesterday as my Rest day due to my schedule this weekend, so I completed Week 1 of Country Heat today! Just when I *almost* get the routines down, I have all new ones next week! Figures! I know I made a lot of improvement on them this week but my husband was not impressed by my sweet dance moves today.....

Workout #4 completed! Circuit #1. I'm going to really focus on my eating this week.
Marissabelvins220- I've seen the infomercial for Country Heat...looks like fun! Hope your husband will be impressed by your moves next week! Lol
1thequeenb- Way to go with all the miles you ran this month!2 -
Today was the first day of Week 2, and I also took my weight and measurements. To be honest I really wasnt expecting much of a change if any, because I also didn't eat the greatest this week. Cookies, cookies and carbs everywhere! Lol
But to my surprise I'm down almost 3 lbs, a 1/2 inch off my waist, and 3/4 inch off my hips.... in ONE week... from dancing.... around my living room.... like a complete goofball.... for reals!?!
I'LL TAKE IT!1 -
Great job everyone! I'm still waking up early in the mornings....getting my workouts out of the way..so glad it's more of a habit now.
My biggest struggle is still my food selections and portion sizes. I've been staying away from carbs very well....craving sweets at times but able to say no. But I kinda don't want to have to say no to carbs...they're so good....portions portions portions...
I wasn't able to run Sunday morning because I had to go to work at 0630. I'm gonna try torun after work tomorrow but I was looking forward to a morning run in the crisp cooler air instead of a treadmill run again. I hate having a missed workout over my head....
Anyway, I didn't really like today's workout amd hope tomorrow is better. That's been the going pattern. But once I get used to them I'll be ok.
I wanted to be more focused on my food this second half of JMBR. I can't believe I'm on week 7 day 2 tomorrow! 6 weeks already behind me! I want to see significant results this second half but I need to get my eating under control too. I was thinking of counting points to keep track of my caloric intake better rather than just avoiding carbs and eating as much as I want...how does that saying go...you can't out work a diet? Or something like that...Abs are made in the kitchen!
Have a great week!

Lol I hated running man every time it came... But in body's heed it is part of EVERY single warm up... And I got around to liking getting it knocked out of the way and knowing it won't be there the rest of the program ...
Now that I have started NROL I have actually tossed in running man as part of my intervals, I apparently was missing them!
Keep it up girls. The hard ones are the ones that help the most !2 -
Marissa -> country heat sound awesome. Might have to get that going for my cardio days in between lifting !
Btw I totally suck at dancing but think my kids would love to join in on that and they won't critique me to shame2 -
Missed yesterday's workout... The baby had an allergic reaction and he was up sick for the first half of Monday night, I only slept 2 hours and just didn't have the energy. Last night was a much better night and today's workout is complete!
Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!1 -
Tomorrow is the last of week 7...can't believe that I'm still on track! Running and dvds!
Week 8 starts Monday... just have cardio and my morning runs in the morning this weekend.0 -
Hey ladies been super busy but haven't slacked on the workouts. On workouts ¾ for BR did a lot of roller skating this week. My running has taken a back seat to life and it need to be a priority with the glass slipper coming up. So tom I'm running and wo 4. I don't work Soo have no excuses. Every one keep up the great work.1 -
Workouts still going strong...I ran 5 miles today, Did cardo dvd with the kids...tomorrow might be a total OFF day since I can't run early. . (Husband is going to work way too early in the morning) I might try to run in the evening though, I keep you posted.1

Hey guys! Just wanted to check in!
I'm on week 3 of my program, and to be honest my nutrition has been awful.... I went on a Chinese, pizza, cookies and ice cream binge.... lol Back to reality!!
I found this before picture today and it really put into perspective how far I've come. Just want you all to know that I was nowhere near perfect a long the way. Obviously lol. You just gotta keep pushing, and all of your hard work will pay off. Every step in the right direction is a victory.

Marissa- awesome job!! You look fantastic. I was having a hard time getting the motivation to exercise today but I saw your post and you inspired me!
Hope everyone has a great week!2 -
I'm so glad to help!
MFP has really helped make my success possible. I love being able to feel accountable and motivated all in the same place. I haven't been logging as diligently but I can tell my eating habits have dramatically changed from my past. I also haven't been logging my daily exercises but just know I am still doing my workouts 6 days a week! Hope everyone is having a great week! Kick @ss and take names!!!1 -
Oh, I forgot to tell you guys that I ran in my 5k!!!!
And I did better than expected! It was great, I can't wait for the next one!!!
@1TheQueenB how's your running going?3 -
Hey everyone! @MarissaBlevins220 my Running is going great! I have ONE MORE DAY till I graduate from my 10k program..I can officially run an hour, which gets me to 5 miles. I'll need to work on my speed to get that extra mile in for it to actually be 10K but I'm excited and pleased with my progress. Next is half Marathon training starting soon. I just can't wait till the weather cools down! Even in the morning it's still so warm!
Congratulations on your 5K!!!!!! Whoo Hoo! It's such a great feeling of accomplishment isn't it??
And btw, I LOVE YOUR BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTO! So motivational! Baby steps do really add up, you've reminded me.
@jsmith0724 great job in continuing your progress and not waiting till Monday...bad habits set in so quickly and then they are hard to break again and again!
I'm still on track with JMBR, tomorrow is the last day for workout 8..then last cardio 2 on Saturday ...then on to phase 3!!!!!! Kinda nervous but I'll get through. I'll need to work on my eating but I think that's for the rest of my life...I try to follow the 80/20 rule. Can't expect perfection but I do put forth the effort most of the time.
Have a great Friday and Weekend girls!!!!
