    HI Beauties,

    Great job everyone. I was horrible this past weekend, but hoping I can step it up. I went for a run this morning and although it hurt and sucked, it felt good to do it. So, I am gonna go to a bbq tonight and going to have to be real disciplined.

    Goals:
    1. Stay under calories
    2. Drink 10 cups of water
    3. Do abs/stretch
    4. Workout

    Good Morning Beauties,

    Well completed day 50 of Power 90( Sweat 3/4) this morning!!!! Yeah!! I was able to get a 35 min walk in last night and hopefully make it to spin/ab class tonight!!!

    Got all my water in too.

    My goals for today:

    1.) Water water water - back to plain water (no cysta light)
    2.) No added salt
    3.) Portion control.....
    4.) No snacking after 8:30 - it's usually 9:00 !!

    I really need to stay focus on my goals. I want to be fit and healthy...I am getting stronger (go Power 90) but I still need to take off these last few pounds!! i know that it will take work - then work to maintain it. I can do this - I just need to push through another plateau. I see results ... so I just need to focus and not be satified where I am right now. I know I can do this and get in the best shape for me.

    Hope everyone has a happy healthy day!!!!

    Hey,

    Congrats Lobster on completing your day 50 of Power 90. You will shed those pounds in no time. Just keep up your hard work, and in due time they will come off. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water. You probably are gaining lots of muscle so your weight may not change. How do you look and feel? Sassy, the couple pounds are fine. They will probably be gone next week when you weigh-in. Just keep up the good work and you will be fine. I met all my goals yesterday. It was the first time that happened in a long long time. I am going to Jamaica in 2 weeks. I am hoping to get down 5 pounds in 2 weeks. I had previously lost this weight and then gained it all back, so I want to really get on the grind and tighten up before I fly to Jamaica and in a bathing suit all day.

    Goals for the day:
    1. Drink 12 cups of water
    2. One mini dessert
    3. Run (check)
    4. Abs/stretch
    5. Basketball if game rained out then I have to go to the gym still and do a lift

    Good luck everyone and have a great day.

    Hey Beauties,

    Well I completed day 51 Power Sculpt 3/4 , this morning and did a power walk for 30 mins this evening. My eating was in check and I drank almost 98ounces of water - if you count 16 oz of home brewed green tea!!!! That's a lot of water !! I received the Power 90 master series today. Very excited about started to work level 5/6 in with 3/4!!!

    Thank for the encouragement bballgrrl. I feel stonger and my jeans are fitting better - but that one pair - you know the one - that when it fits right - you'r there!!!! The one thing that has changed the most so far,is in my shoulders and arms. I can were tanks and halter tops and it looks nice!!! ( my wedding dress is a halter.) I am getting a few compliments too, so I know that I am getting there. Just not quite where I want to be yet. It will come, the wedding is still about 2 1/2 months away so I have a little time.
    Hope you meet your goal for Jamaica... you will have so much fun.!!!!

    Hope everyone is having a great week!!!

    Good morning Beauties....

    I'm checking in for the weigh in and am pleased to report a loss...I'm down to 123.2...With Beach Beauties 1 I was really just checking what I was eating (calorie counting ect) and managed to loose some weight but this time around I've combined staying within my calorie goals and exercising daily and I feel great ...not to mention I'm still not smoking! which i never thought i would quit!...

    so goals for this week are...

    1) drink a lot more water daily
    2) include a run to the mountain near by atleast twice this week
    3) minimum 30 minutes of exercise a day

    Good Morning Beauties,

    Well, not much but my weigh-in is 128.8. It's actually the third time this past week it weighed in at that. So, hopefully that will stick and keep going down. I know that I am gaining muscle with the Power 90. My body fat % has been going down too, It is in between the acceptable and the fitness level. So, all in all I am happy - I just really want to see the 125 on the scale. I am mentally stuck on that number but I know that it is achievable!!!

    So, what are our goals for the week? How about trying a new exercise? Something we haven't done before or at least haven't in awhile. I was thinking one of my old tae bo tapes??? I really wish I could swim, but I don't have access to a pool. My kiddie pool won't do...LOL

    1.) We need to keep our water up at 64onces of water - I am trying for 80oz.
    2.) New exercise and continue with daily exercise. Let's up that to 45mins. a day (one day off)
    3.) Replace a carb with a better one. (Sweet potatoe for white, whole wheat pasta for white, etc. or just cut the carb out and eat a veg. ) For at least one meal every day!!!

    Hope that's not too much in one week. If anyone has any suggestions - please post.

    I will try to do a weigh-in report at the end of the day.

    Hope everyone has a Happy Healthy Weigh-in!!!!!

    Hi Beauties,

    Sorry I have been MIA. My cousin passed away last friday and I had to go home for the funeral. I did not do well this weekend. We had a mini family reunion, after the wake we ate, and after the funeral we ate. The food was very unhealthy. I am not pleased with myself, but it is what my family does when we get together. I will get over it. Hope everyone is doing well.

    Hello Beauties,

    Hope everyone is having a great week. I have met my goals and feel pretty good . I did my power 90 this morning (day 58) but didn't get in walk tonight. I had an appointment with the florist after work for my wedding flowers. That's was fun... but it made me run behind with everything else. But, it was worth it.

    I miss my beauties.... I hope that everyone is doing good and meeting their goals. If anyone needs help, support or motivation please check-in - that's why we are here!!! I was getting a little disappointed myself but I know that I jsut have to keep at it - it will come. I know that I am healthier and stronger than June 1st and I know that by Sept 1st I will be even stronger and healthier so i keep going. ... Tony Horton promises me results - he won't lie would he????

    Good Night everyone!!

    Hi everyone I'm home from vacation. I ate pretty horribly on vacation but I did swim run and walk every day :) I was going to weigh in this morning but I decided to give myself a recovery day 6 hrs. on a plane never does anyone any good plus I only got a few hours of sleep last night (like 3) which was bad. So today is a rest day, and I'll be back at it tomorrow! I'll post my weight tomorrow also since I missed last Monday's weigh in, but I'll weigh in officially on Monday with everyone else.

    Also good news, the boyfriend decided he needed to loose weight so he's "competing with me" lol I think he cheats but its still extra motivation and it helps when hes not eating a hamburger every time I get to his house.

    Hi everyone,

    I started the Master Cleanse the other day. I am hoping this will make it easy for me to eat healthily when I am finished. I am doing alright. Not as hungry as I thought I would be, but def could do with some delicious food. I leave for Jamaica in less than a week and I know I am not going to eat well, but hopefully I can be somewhat decent when it comes to the amount of food I consume. I am happy that I am back on track with working out. I go for a run pretty much everyday. I also tried out a boxing class. It was intense, but awesome. I plan to continue going. I will go tomorrow and then pick it back up after my two weeks of vacation.

    I only have one goal today. I already did my workout and drinking plenty of water.

    1. Make it through the master cleanse!

    Good luck everyone and have a lovely day.

    Welcome back Megooo and Bballgrrl, life happens and we can't always stay on track ...but it's important to keep trying. Everyday is a new day.. I sound a little corney huh.... but you know what I mean.

    Way to go Gigi - plyo is hard!!!!

    Keep up the good work Beauties, this is not an easy journey - healthy living is hard sometimes with the temptations and challenges of life. But, it we keep trying... we will reach our goals!!!

    Have a happy healthy day!!!!

    Hi Beauties,

    I weighed in this morning and I was at 148.6 which means I gained 1.6 lbs which honestly is better than I thought it was going to be. So if I can shed that then I'll be at 147 for the third week in a row. :ohwell: I guess that's better than gaining. Good luck over the weekend everyone!

    I was wondering where my Sassy beauty was. Great for checking in - that's the first step to getting back on track.... Remember weigh-in is Monday - so we all have to be accountable over the weekend. I know...tough ... but we will all be in it together!!!

    Setting goals for the weekends works for me. I make sure I exercise so I can have my treat on Sunday evenings. Lately my treat is has been frozen yogurt with mini dark chocolate chips. It's a place called Cherry Berry and it's self serve yougurt and toppings. (you pay by the ounce - so it help keep you in check) I allow myself one treat a week - what ever I want. But, I find I am still keeping it pretty healthy - which is my over all goal anyway.

    So here is to a healthy weekend. Does any one want to set their goals for the weekends and then report on Monday how we did?
    Just because weekends are usually the harder time to eat healthy and exercise.

    My goals are

    1.) Power 90 sweat Sat - walking on Sunday 30min.
    2.) Make sure I drink in all my water 80 ounces both days.
    3.) Make sure I eat a healthy breakfast both days. (this really helps)

    Here's to a happy healthy weekend!!!

    Hi ladies!

    So its Monday. This weekend I felt like I did pretty good. My eating wasn't wonderful but I was conscious of my decisions and I went dancing and went hiking, both were fun. I weighed 148.4 this morning...meaning I lost 0.2 lol. I dont think I should even count that. Well better luck this week, I really would like to get out of these high 140's. My goal for next Monday is 146. How's everyone else doing?
