Ladies, I just picked up Oxygen Magazine for Feb. last night, and in it they have a great body transformation series. It's called "Build Your Best Body" and is a three month series of training and nutrition tips that change each month.
This 12 week program, and can be started any time and change every month. The moves in this month's portion are both gym and home gym friendly, and the nutrition tips are pretty doable, nothing outrageous. If you'd like to check it out, the name of the article is "Trim Inches All Over" from the February 2013 issue. Check it out at: oxygenmag.com
Hey, can you put up the link for us, I can't seem to find it when I google. Sounds interesting0 -
Just got my insanity workout in...it was hard and I am tired but for sure not regretting it!!0

Hey Nette. I don't know why I can't hpyerlink, but here's the URL to copy and paste: http://www.oxygenmag.com/preview/163/
That's just a preview of the magazine, I just tried to get a copy, but it looks like you have to buy the magazine (either electronic or print) for the workout and nutrition information. However, you can download the grocery list for the month on that site for free.

Just got workout 3 on insanity in. Almost didn't happen but luckily my mind took over my body! After laying in my workout clothes for a hour I decided I wasn't doing it. Grabbed my keys and jacket and was headed out the door to go get something to eat! I felt so cheated so I came back in popped in the DVD and went for it!0

I'm 5 pounds down so far! Yippeee! Passing up that cake, pie, ice cream and working out more really helped. I'm more motivated to move more now. I wonder what next week will bring.
Non-scale victory goals for this week:
1) work out five times this week
2) meditate everyday this week
3) do something not related to weight loss or working out that makes me happy at least twice this week0 -
Soosweet12, this trophy is for you!
Your willingness to go back inside and get that workout done shows great mental strength. Like you said, "Your mind took over your body". What an awesome NSV! Seriously, WTG! Yours is the kinds of NSV I want to experience everyday. You're definitely going to reach your goals with that attitude.
Bravo, Soosweet12!0 -

Congrats, Nette!!! I really like the idea of making weekly NSV goals. I think I'm going to copy off of you if you don't mind.
Ladies, I just found a blog that I am absolutely in love with, and I'm just on the third post. You can find it here:
http://motiveweight.blogspot.com/ The site is very motivational! I encourage you ladies to check it out. It's started by a woman named Linda James. In addition to blogging, it looks like she also creates inspirational weight loss pics. I always wondered who did those. She has other blogs listed on her page. Looks like a winner! I'm subbing.0 -

My NSV after each 10lb loss is going to be a full body massage. One more pound to go...which will be done this week. Lol
Congrats to everyone on this journey, let's do it together. .0 -
I had a great NSV today. I was cleaning out a closet and found a dress I bought last year that I loved but when I got it home I couldn't zip it up in the back. Loved the dress so decided to keep it anyway. Well I decided to try it on today. It zipped up with no problem. Still a little tight but it fit. What a nice surprise! Hopefully this will be reflected in Monday's weigh in!!!0
