    QOTD - Wednesday June 8: Which one part of your body do you like the most... and which one part do you wish you could change the most?

    This is a hard one for me to answer, because there isn't much in the first category, but a LOT in the second! Anyway, I would have to say I somewhat like my calves - they are getting more toned for sure. The one part I really can't stand about my body is my poochy tummy - and of course it's always the last place i see results!

    QUESTION OF THE DAY FOR MONDAY, MAY JUNE 6th

    If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would splurge on?

    Definatley plastic surgery. I know that probalby sounds bad on a weight loss place. I would get a nose job (I hate my nose), Then I would get my breast augmented (I have none), then I would have all this excess skin on my belly cut off (I've had 4 children by C-section). I'm getting a six pack and would love for it to show!

    Happy Tuesday Diamonds!

    QUESTION OF THE DAY FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 7TH

    How have you noticed your weightloss/fitness plan affecting your overall health?

    I've noticed that when I do my exercise, then I'm not dying for a treat. Exercise seems to help me eat better.

    QOTD - Wednesday June 8: Which one part of your body do you like the most... and which one part do you wish you could change the most?

    I like my eyes. They are kind of a greenish blue with golden flecks in the middle. Hard to describe, but I really like them.

    As far as what I wish I could change, where do i start? I really hate my nose. Big noses run in my family on both sides, so it was inevitable that I would get one. Unfortunately, I can workout on the rest of my body and watch it S...l...o...w...l...y change, but there is no hope for my nose.

    QOTD response for Wed.... I think I love my arms the most. I starting lifting weights about 2 months ago. I was afraid at first. My trainer had me use low weights. So I am not getting bulky, but rather getting nice cuts. The part I hate the most is my tummy. 4 kids. ugh! I am certainly getting a tummy tuck.

    QOTD - Wednesday June 8: Which one part of your body do you like the most... and which one part do you wish you could change the most?

    I would say I like my arms. That's part of why I was so sad when I gained weight and started to realize that my arms had lost their shapeliness. Genetics gave me hourglass arms, but fried chicken turned them into jumbo sausages!

    What would I change? What would EVERYONE change... this darn stomach! I have a particular brood with my love handles.

    I like my overall shape. I'm tall and curvy and I like that. The one part I have to change are my arms. My goodness they are a cruel joke. As I've gotten older, I swear I can spread my fatty arms and fly away. Yuck:(

    Tough one...I think I like my wrists the most. They are slender and can look elegant. Also I use to love my neck and am beginning to again now that is not hiding behind two chins. It is a toss-up between my thighs and stomach for the latter.

    QUESTION OF THE DAY FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 7TH
    How have you noticed your weightloss/fitness plan affecting your overall health?

    YES! My knees don't hurt anymore which alarmed me because my mothe had the same problem and I watched her suffer. Secondly, I don't wake up with numb fingers/hands all the way to my elbows anymore which was the scariest. It feels like my heart isn't working as hard anymore when I am walking.

    THURSDAY JUNE 9th QUESTION OF THE DAY. What music is on your playlist for your work outs?

    My Pandora playlist has a lot of Missy Elliott (she is always talking about getting hot, or working it out... which I love), Lady Gaga, and Lil Wayne. The funny thing is, that is not the music I would choose to listen to ordinarily, but when I'm sweating my butt off I want to hear music that sounds like they could be sweating theirs off too!

    When I'm not working out I'm much more soul, jazz, funk, r&b ish. Erykah Badu is my fav.

    QOTD - Wednesday June 8: Which one part of your body do you like the most... and which one part do you wish you could change the most?

    Hmm...I would have to say I like my mouth or my lips the best - I always had very chapped lips and cold sores - even when I was really young, and in the last couple years they have gone away! My lips are not too thin nor too plump....which part do I wish to I could change, honestly, almost everything else! But if I had to choose one part, I would say my breasts. I am small chested, but have a huge ribcage....so I have a really hard time finding bras big enough to go around, but small enough cup size. No matter how much weight I have gained, I never gain in the boobs....but I don't lose there either, so I guess I can't complain too much
    THURSDAY JUNE 9th QUESTION OF THE DAY. What music is on your playlist for your work outs?

    I don't have a playlist....I work out to whatever is the on the DVD, or go outdoors walking with my family. I actually don't even own an Ipod or anything like that.....

    THURSDAY JUNE 9th QUESTION OF THE DAY. What music is on your playlist for your work outs?

    If I'm walking, I usually put my ipod Top 25 which includes songs from Wicked, and Evita as well as Straight No Chaser and some country. When I'm running, I usually either listen to Billy Idol, or my running playlist that has everything from Beatles to Van Halen to Avril Lavign.

    QOTD Tue 6/7
    How have you noticed your weightloss/fitness plan affecting your overall health?

    Back in the day, I would be pooped when I got out of work, and need to take a nap. This still happens every once in a blue moon (like yesterday because I didn't sleep well the night before), but it happens a LOT less than it used to.

    Another thing is that I don't get as winded when I exercise (walking, arc trainer, etc.). I used to breathe heavier when I would take walks with my co-workers during lunch, but that doesn't happen anymore. When I used to go biking with my fiance, I used to get winded (pretty flat trail), but now that doesn't happen, and I can go a lot farther than I used to.

    I don't know if this would really count, but I love my eyes the most, because they are multi-colored.

    What to change? I am torn between my mid-section and my thunder thighs lol

    THURSDAY JUNE 9th QUESTION OF THE DAY. What music is on your playlist for your work outs?

    Well, I have a limited playlist, as I downloaded all this music on my uncle's computer (I don't have my own) and then his computer died before I could get it all on my ipod. Thankfully, Apple is going to let me re-download my purchase history

    Anyways, as of now I have a little of everything (I think I have MAYBE 20 songs on there): Rihanna, Brittney Spears, J Lo, Black Eyed Peas, among a few others

    That's mine too, plus some gospel to get me through the really hard workouts, and Beyonce, cause I love her.

    Hi everyone,

    Hope people are having a great week. It has been tough, but i am trying to stay focused before my cruise.

    QOTD Tuesday: I don't know how it has effected my overall health. I need to go to the doctor and have things checked out. I am less tired I guess.

    QOTD Wednesday: I would say my favorite part of my body are my legs. They are thick, but defined and muscular. The ONE part I would change would be my stomach. I just can't seem to get rid of my gut, and I know it is because of what I eat and not the exercise. I have other parts, but that is the main one.

    QOTD Thursday: Lil' wayne, Trey Songz, Drake, Ludacris, Rihanna, Kanye, Jay-Z, Adele, and it a pretty wide array.

    Sorry been rubbish this week on answering questions, our PC has been out of action so I have been concentrating on logging calories.

    QUESTION OF THE DAY FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 7TH

    How have you noticed your weightloss/fitness plan affecting your overall health?
    I think I definately have loads more energy and strength. I had pelvic instability during pregnancy and it left me very weak and unable to stand on one leg to put clothes on and unable to walk very far. Since loosing weight and working on my core muscles, I am almost back to normal.

    QOTD - Wednesday June 8: Which one part of your body do you like the most... and which one part do you wish you could change the most?

    It has to be eyes for me, I get lots of compliments about them as they are three different colours and a little like David Bowie's.
    At the moment I completely hate my stomach. It has become much more toned since doing the 30 day shred, but I have a disgusting mummy tummy covered in stretch marks which I would be happy to say goodbye to!

    THURSDAY JUNE 9th QUESTION OF THE DAY. What music is on your playlist for your work outs?
    Currently I listen to the radio at the gym as I haven't updated my ipod for ages. However I think it would have to be upbeat dance tracks from groups like The Prodigy, Underworld, Pendulum etc, any sort of drum and bass.... anything high energy. I used to listen to a CD called 'Too many DJs' which was little samples of tracks mixed together, each workout I would try to get a little bit further through the mix.... great motivator.
