    5'1" (with shoes :laugh: ) and 150lbs

    I'm down 5lbs since December - that was also boosted by 2 rounds of the flu... so hopefully I can maintain that and keep losing!

    My husband leaves for Basic Training on Monday. It admit that it will be hard not to indulge this week and to make myself work out, but I hope to do better once his Swiss Rolls aren't around and he's not available to go out to eat with. Trying to look on the bright side as I face 16 weeks without my new husband :smile:

    jz - Thanks for starting the new thread.

    Welcome to all the newbies and I hope you stick around and post with us.

    Don't we all wish we were taller. Just think - no more hemming pants. Sadder still is the fact that as we get older, we get shorter. =(

    My March goals are the same as my February ones were and I met those. I think I did a much better job at living on my daily calories and I did OK with my exercise goal too. I lost 1 pound and 1 inch around my hips and my waist.

    Marilla- Sorry to hear your new hubby is gone already. I hope these weeks fly by for you and you are successful with staying on track without him around.

    Good morning all! Today is week 1 day 2 of the Insanity program and I completed the Plyometrics Cardio Circuit. This dvd totally kicked my butt. I started out pretty strong but by the time we were doing the suicide drill 2 (hop into plank position, complete 4 push ups, 8 mountain climbers, jump back up) I was about pooped. Then after the suicide drills to the ski abs and the in and out abs had my shoulders and abs burning. I can still feel the burn as I type this post but I'll be back at it tomorrow giving it my all.

    Hi to all the new members! Hope you all stick around and add to our group! :flowerforyou:
    So, I was getting ready to work out earlier & i looked down & guess what i saw...MY FEET!! :laugh: haha..Usually I can see my toes, but the rest of the feet are eclipsed by my round lil tummy. But NOT TODAY!! I could see my whole entire foot! :happy: I can defaintly see a difference in my stomach. I also notice I have more muscle/less fat in my back & my thighs are slimming down. I finally feel like I am making some progress! It feels great after months of hard work!! :bigsmile: 40 mins of Total Body Circuit Training is done for the day & now I am ready to eat. Have a good day everyone.

    Thanks guys! :wink: Laziness won today, no workout this morning. I just feel so sleepy! :yawn: :yawn: If i can work up some motivation I will exercise later. I'm going to keep a close eye on calories since I don't have extra today. Thats what I hate about when I don't workout. 1200 calories a day is like nothing! It was grapes & cottage cheese for breakfast today (not that thats a bad thing, its one of my favs). I'm so close to my 1st mini goal that I don't want to mess it up. And I DO NOT want to wait ANOTHER week to reach it! I'm 0.2 lbs away from 140...so close I can taste it lol. Then its on to the 130's!! I REALLY cant wait to see that! Ok enough babbeling...have a good day everyone!!

    Good morning all! Today is week 1 day 3 of the Insanity program for me and I completed Cardio Power & Resistance and I'm just about toast. I mean between completing the power jacks, log jumps, 1-2-3 jumps, high knees and vertical jumps during the warm up phase and the power jumps, belt kicks, hit the floor, hurdle jumps, globe jumps and 8 hop squats as part of the actual workout its a wonder I can even walk. I must admit, I'm cursing at Shaun T all through the workout but so happy that I continue to push through it (w/my own inserted breaks of course) that all is forgiven at the end of the 39 minutes.

    Jzbaby: Take a nap and then get that workout in this afternoon. Do all you can to meet your first mini goal.

    I did not buy, but I tried on and fit into size 12 jeans today. I didn't like them but just wanted to see if they'd fit and they do. It was so exciting. I am not going to buy any clothes until I am in the 140's (which is just a couple of pounds away).

    I bought a Walk at Home workout DVD to bring with my on my trip. It kicked my ___! I will try to do it 2x's a week until we go and then every day at the hotel.

    Both my daughter and I are bringing our laptops with us. I think we both better bring earphones too. lol

    Have a great hump day evening.
