I had a pretty bad day, emotions wise. I wanted all the food and alcohol!!! I didn't buy any alcohol because I didn't have my ID on me, otherwise I probably would have gone for it. Foodwise I'm pretty proud of myself. Got home and ate a huge cucumber instead of buying cookies :P
OK, yesterday I tried a Jillian Michaels work out video for the first time, and today I have been struggling to walk. My thighs are absolutely killing me and I can't even imagine doing another video today like I wanted to. It's hard enough walking down stairs and trying to sit down. Hopefully this means it's working???0 -

Good for you for making the healthier food choice!
I know that leg pain you speak of. It sucks but it's awesome at the same time because it means you worked your butt off. Doing some activity will probably help the pain (if it's just sore muscles and not a pulled muscle).

I don't get the need to argue either. I've posted my opinion (on a FB group). The other person posted theirs and I just said we'd agree to disagree and it was done. Someone else came along looking for a fight and completely derailed the post.
What's the point in arguing with some complete stranger online? My opinion isn't going to change because of them and I doubt I'll change theirs so let's just be adults and move on.

I just spent 10 minutes looking up nearby bakeries. I want some kind of baked good, but not just from a grocery store. I know where I'm stopping on my way home!0

Thanks for your encouragement! I'll try to do some light exercise and see if that gets me anywhere.FluffySandwich wrote: »I had a pretty bad day, emotions wise. I wanted all the food and alcohol!!!

At least class is cancelled tomorrow so I don't have to walk up a billion flights of stairs.

I can't make myself work out in front of a video. I just feel so self-conscious and ridiculous. How can I get over that?FluffySandwich wrote: »OK, yesterday I tried a Jillian Michaels work out video for the first time, and today I have been struggling to walk.

Is this when you're on your own or when someone else is around you? Because I can only do it when I'm home alone.

There's a pile of weights in my son's room, including some 10lb kettle bells. They give me the side eye whenever I'm in there, and I know I should be doing something with them. Do you have a suggestion for a workout I could use them for?This happened to be the first time I did kettle bell swings.. used too much weight and did too many reps and could barely move the next day!

I know! I don't understand why people can't agree to disagree? You're right neither one is going to change their mind so they end up going in circles! That's when I give up on the thread because it comes down to a couple people's opinions and if you try to comment just get shut down. Oh well I must be doing something right as I'm feeling more fit and losing weight and feeling great! 0 -

I feel silly the first couple times I do a new dvd, especially if someone else is around. If it's just me, I don't care, because nobody's around to judge me.
I say try it at least 3 times. By then you'll have an idea of what's coming next and can focus on your form instead of how silly you think you look.
(But sometimes you might not get over it lol. I just can't get into home zumba workouts.)0 -

I swore I was the only one to do this, downside of losing weight is only a few of my clothes fit (ones with drawstrings) and really I don't have time or money to do laundry every two days smh

Google Kettle Bell Exercises, I usually just do the swings, they are good cardio and if done properly are almost a total body workout. 10 lb will probably be a good weight to start with, I started that day with 25lbs and did 30 reps and it was, shall we say, a big mistake.0 -

No, no, no.
I got MRSA from the gym when I was 19 (in college.) I was a healthy person, and I got it because someone didn't wipe off gym equipment.
I have to shower right after the gym and throw all my clothes in the wash.
But I do sweat buckets during each session. Lovely family trait.
This is why you always wipe down the machine before AND after use. Again thankfully my Y provides sanitizing wipes for just that reason. Regardless of whether this is my second day in these clothes at the gym I'm going to sweat again so there really isn't a difference.0 -
Here is my confession: 90% of the time I make my dinner different then what I make for my family, most of the time I eat the same thing day after day, BUT I like it, lol.
I do the same thing... and it's usually delicious and my husband won't eat it so yay! more leftovers for me tomorrow

My manager bought cookies and donuts for training sessions a few weeks ago. No one ate them and gave me 5 cookies to take home (I, at least, had the guts to say no to the donuts). 10 minutes into my drive home I ate 4 of the 200+ calorie cookies. I had to toss the last one out the window to prevent myself from eating it. For me, it was the only thing I could do to control myself.
I think the second one wasn't too bad... but whole batches of recipes! Yikes I would cry to throw away that much money, next time just donate the batch to a friend etc.

Questions (not judgement of course):funjen1972 wrote: »I wear the same stinky workout clothes for several days without washing. Ewww gross, I know. Always change my socks though lol
1) do you mean you don't change out of those workout clothes for days or are you "airing" things out like some of these other ladies?
2) For the ladies airing stuff out would it be just as easy to take those clothes in the bathroom+when you shower and leave them in a sink full of water and Woolite while you shower and the drain the sink while you dress and then hang them to dry for the same lenght of time they would have "aired out"?...without really costing you any more time if thats the issue?
3) Is it the scented trash bag, and what do you do with the yellow drawstring tie it at your waist like sweats?
4) What is the difference between, judgement, curiosity, "nosy" -ness, and concern?
I put my workout clothes on hooks in my bedroom to air them out. Hand washing & wringing seems like wayyyyy too much work lol
Exactly! I just busted my *kitten* at the gym, you think I want to hand wash these clothes I just tortured myself in? Nope, I'm good thanks

I've been fat my whole life, and have no idea what it's like to be thin. I know I shouldn't resent them, but damn, when I see a thin girl complaining about how those jeans make her *kitten* look big, I want to slap her in the face.Me too!!!!!! In fact it pisses me off. I think it is because I just WISH that the hunt fr the perfect jeans on a perfect body was my biggest issue. Maybe it is jealousy? But either way.... I feel the same!
This is just damn sad. SMH :noway:
I don't see it... It does annoy me when I see girls that look fantastic complain that their clothes make them look fat. Although I guess now I just feel sad for them because they don't realize how great they look, and they'll look back one day and realize that they were wasting too much energy on something that wasn't even true and wish they could look that way again lol.
I totally fail to see how that is body shaming, like some people mentioned above... Being jealous of someone's body is shaming them? How?
For not washing clothes after working out, some people just don't sweat much. I'm always sweating like crazy at the gym but I see people running in SWEATERS next to me and they seem just fine. So *shrug*.
Of course you don't. *nod* *shrug*
You know, the thread title asked for no judgement, and that's pretty much all you've contributed.
Confession: I judge people for not washing their clothes... that ish is nasty as hell. Better?
Reality check: All of us wash them. Just not every day. You made assumptions. You also made a leap and assumed that we didn't wipe down gym equipment. What exactly did you plan to do when you came into a thread sharing confessions?
Question: Do you wash your judgey pants every time you put them on?

That's nothing. I lip synch and quasi dance while on the eliptical. Anything to keep my mind off the fact that I still have x minutes to go. I'm sure my 6'4" 280 lb self looks quite manly singing Aung dancing to such classics as lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, etc.
(btw I actually have decent musical taste outside the gym. I just find my usual indie fare lacks some motivational punch on the cardio equipment.)
I lip sync too. People at the gym must think I am nuts.
I lip sync three. To what's playing on my play list. Over my ear phones. I might even wiggle my hips a bit.
I lip sync four. Have to check myself every now and then to make sure I'm not singing out loud to a gym full of people.0 -

Biological imperative. Men go to sleep, women get the munchies.
I just pulled that out of either my musty memory tome from something I read ages ago or I pulled it out of a less polite location.
Confession, I have ordered my husband to make me a sandwich after sex. I think you're point is valid.

Yes and he talks to me about it constantly. Sometimes I wish I could just tell him to shut up.
I play it with him sometimes and it is fine but I kind of don't get the obsession. He likes to play on the creative mode where nothing even happens.
He also is obsessed with Legos. I love the comment that Minecraft is Legos for the mind. So true.
Kid's not even 6, I hope he grows up to be a nerd like his parents
