    I saw the results for Midriff May and I'm so happy you guys are doing this again. It's just the motivation I need. I am so in. :)

    So what's everyone doing to trim their torsos this week? I'm damaged my toe - either broken or inflamed joint - so have to keep it low-impact for a bit. I feel some Body Pump coming on tonight!

    To be honest, very little bar some very long walks. Next week I'm hitting it seriously.

    I'm done w/ Day 10 of 30DS level 2.
    Then I have Pilates class later.

    I can't tell if I'm toning up, because I started upping my calories to 1700 (from 1400), so I feel like a bloated tick right now.

    You can do seated punches, while tightening your core.

    Rugby, HIIT training and strength training this week, with some extra ab work thrown in. I'm doing side and front planks with hip raises and mountain climbers, and the JM "plank jacks".

    It's all gone quiet over there. What's everyone up to? I've had a welcome "mystery loss" from a week of laziness (broken toe) and massive overeating but I'm feeling flabby. Body Pump today should help get me back on the case!

    Hiding my midriff shyly at home it is -- the boys in my martial arts class are already weirded out enough by having to fight with a girl as it is. Good thing I am starting an at-home program to get in a little exercise every day. :)

    I have been using an Ab wheel. It gives a good burn. I do this along with sit ups and crunches.

    Did a steady-state indoor bike ride last night, with my cheapo HRM for the first time. It takes longer to get into my target zone than with weight-bearing exercise, but is easy to keep there. Disappointing calorie burn compared to the bike or MFP reading I'd been using, though, despite dripping with sweat!

    I was thinking of making July's bare belly challenge the outdoor edition, but it's currently 2 degrees C here and it's been raining non-stop for a month, it seems!

    It's over half-way through the month already! I've been taking it easy for a couple of days as I have a night-hike tomorrow (I burned 1600 calories doing it last year!), but I may hit the weights tonight.

    I have been good this month with using the Ab wheel every day. I even told it on a camping vacation. Let's see how it looks when I post a pic in June.

    I took some updated pictures this morning, and while I notice a small difference, I think I need to kick it up a notch.

    The muscles are under there; come out come out!

    Wish I had a before pic of my tummy! I'm noticing big differences with my personal training (I know, groan away, but its a group thing and way cheap at my office!) and boot camp! Anyone else doing a total body workout?

    I love that I signed up for this challenge - my bf is trying to convince me to buy a 2 piece this weekend for our vacation next week, and it reminded me that this is still on my to-do list!

    Not sure how I feel about the 2 piece... but at least I will get into the idea when I post for this!

    Yay! Let's see those tummies!!!
