Also don't know how many of you saw this what I posted Saturday. If you are not doing measurments you really should. Here are my before and 8 week meanurments. OK so I started January 5th. Here were my starting Stats and the goal I had set for April 5th. Well needless to say I met my goals a whole month early. So I will be setting some new goals later today. Also I updated my pictures on my profile. You should look at the difference in just 8 weeks. I am amazed!
January 5, 2009 April 5, 2009 February 28, 2009
Weight Before 221 Desired 195 After 194
BMI Before35.7 Desired 31.5 After 31.3
Chest Before40.5 Desired 38 After 38.5
Waist(low) Before46 Desired 42 After 42.5
Waist(actual)Before 48 Desired 44 After 42.5
Hips Before 45 Desired 44 After 42.5
Thigh Before 26 Desired 25 After 23
Bicep Before 13.5 Desired 13 After 13
So the grand total weight loss is 27 lbs and the total inches lost is 17!
WOW!! You and me are sooo much alike! I thought I was reading my measurements! Seriously, they are almost identical. Excpet for losing 27lbs total. I'm not quite there.
But as you can see, I have lost a total of 10lbs! I'm so excited! I redid my goal for April 15 which was to be at my pre-preggors weight of 180. Don't think it's quite going to happen so I made it 190. Well, at this rate I think I might be able to be at 185. What do y'all think?? I'm still not exercising as my kiddos are still sick, hubby works nights and sleeps some of the day so it makes it hard. But I'm starting back soon, once I start maybe I'll lose faster.
Anwho, congrats to EVERYONE on their accomplishments!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
Hi everyone!
I know I'm late with checking in. Yesterday was a whirlwind trip to well-baby check-up (2 hours away), ran some errands got some groceries and came home to yes, check cows. The grand total is 8 now, at this rate it's gonna take forever. I have a feeling this weekend is going to baby popping central. The good news is I'm down 1 pound. AND today my hubby said, " you must be getting stronger and in shape because you're getting on your horse better". That was one of my mini goals. :bigsmile:
I'm so glad everyone is doing so well!!
PS Yesterday was Kristi's Birthday, I forgot to mention it in all the hurry scurry of the morning.

That is so funny! Sorry your lo's are still sick. How many lbs would that mean you had to lose? I think you can do it! You are doing great. Don't you love seeing measurments change. I think they change way faster than the scale sometimes. I had to change my goals a little and then I actually lowered my goal. I was 190 pre prego and I am only 2 lbs away. I am so happy. I first thought I would aim for 175. Since I have never been that low. Well I must have been at some point but I can't remember when. Well with the way I was losing I set my long term goal at 165.Also don't know how many of you saw this what I posted Saturday. If you are not doing measurments you really should.

Soooo, this morning I weighed myself on MY SCALE, and my numbers are 2 pounds down... Whooppeeeeeee!!! I made myself feel so much better, knowing that I didn't gain one pound... I have volleyball tonight, then chest, back, and biceps... Let everyone know whoat I burned later...0
-
Yay! I am glad you weighed on your scale. It is always best to weigh consistantly on the same one. I am in need of a new scale but scared it will tell me I weigh more than the one I have. I dont want that. Anyway congrats!Soooo, this morning I weighed myself on MY SCALE, and my numbers are 2 pounds down... Whooppeeeeeee!!!

Hey girl, it's good to see ya!!! You're doing awesome, and I have been following your other threads, too. I hope that you and your hubby can work something out with the whole prom situation... And best of luck with his new job, too!!! With the stress you're dealing with, maintaining is awesome!!!0 -
I did Plyo X last night, It was the first time I had ever done one of the cardio workouts on P90X with a heart rate monitor. I also got me a good pair of cross trainers, which makes a world of difference. The other shoes I had would hurt my feet for two days after I worked out in them. I was just too cheap to go buy a new pair. Anyways, I was really surprised. I checked the calories I burned after the workout....1078 Calories burned in one hour! I was pumped!0
-
I meant to mention this too....I had to go get a physical yesterday for some life insurance I'm getting. They weighed me in the middle of the day with all my clothes and shoes on and I was actually down about 2 lbs from where I digital scale says I am. I was glad to see it, but I'm still not going to count it because my scale here says about 2 lbs more! Oh well, I still know what that other one says!0

Morning all, im not doing so well this week with fitting in the workouts. With all the studying, working, and going to class, I am not getting much sleep and am exhausted by the time I get home. Saturday will be the end of my busy busy week, so I am just going to try and stay under my calories and hope for the best :grumble:
Then next week I will get right back on the horse (figuratively that is....I dont think Im as strong as Kacee to be getting up on horses :laugh: )0 -
I know it can be different for many reasons, scale, time of day, clothes ect. When I met with my trainer the other day I said oh I weighed less this morning but I was naked and had not eaten yet. She said well let me check and she just put a 5 lbs weight on the scale and I thought that was genius. I should do that on my own scale but I dont want it to change cause I have lost the same number of lbs either way but maybe it was off from the begining and I weight more, aahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!I meant to mention this too....I had to go get a physical yesterday for some life insurance I'm getting.

Hey everyone... I am sooooooo sore today-I had an upper-body workout with my P90X program, and I am feeling it today!!! I burned 418 calories with that, and then I also burned 847 calories with volleyball last night. I brought my girls with me to volleyball, and they got their exercise in playing with a little boy in one of the raquettball courts. Boy did they fall asleep quickly!!!
I have YogaX tonight, and am not really looking forward to it. I have a new Walk Away the Pounds video from Netflix, and am thinking about doing that, too, just to up my calorie burn. Has anyone else tried these? I don't know if I'm going to feel comfortable doing it in front of my husband. I might have to banish him to the garage until I'm finished...
Mister Sister-Do you have everything you need for the baby? I was thinking about you and your wife the other day as I was going through stuff at my house. I have a collapsable baby swing that is completely portable, has fishies and lights, plays music... And it was only used when my youngest was a baby. I even have a high chair, to. Also, if you have a girl(tee-hee) I have so many baby clothes and blankets, I have them coming out my ears... Just a thought, because I'd rather have someone get use out of them than have everything just siting in storage. They grow so fast, you never really get your money's worth out of them.:happy:0 -
Hi all!
Today was another busy busy day. Started at 3am with 4 new babies. One of which is a bum calf, her momma had twins and pushed her away. She's doing good though, like I need another baby around to bottle feed every few hours. :noway: Throughout the evening 3 more popped. All are good so far. I haven't had time to work-out, but I think I'm at least maintaining since I don't have time to eat anything bad or snack much at all. Plus sleep is in high demand right now.:laugh: Anyway, might not get to check in tomorrow, cuz I'll be sitting on a horse most of the day tagging calves (actually I'm the one in between hubby and momma cow so she doesn't run him over:laugh: I still can't move THAT fast:noway: ). So good night and glad everyone is still doing good.:bigsmile:0 -
It sounds like you HAVE BEEN exercising... I don't know how you have all the energy and time to do it... Kids and dealing with livestock?!! You make me feel like a weenie!!!0
-
I second that notion, you are a brave chickie to get in between a momma and her babies! Good job :laugh:0

I have like 7 of the Walk Away the Pounds and Walk Slim dvd's. I like them cause they are easier than some videos and fast so I can pop them in when ever I want a quick workout. Which one or how many miles did you get? I have two 1 mile, two 2 mile, a 3 mile, a 4 mile, a 5 mile and a 1 mile jog. Let me know how you like it. The lady is kinda cheesey. It reminds me of a aerobics class. You don't burn nearly as many calories as you are used to, or at least I didn't when I used my polar watch.0 -
I hate when we get to the second page! Where is everyone! TGIF!0

Im here! I still have one more test tomorrow morning (the first part of the bar). So I have been studying my little
out.
Christine and Resa awesome jobs with the workouts! You guys are so consistent
Me on the other hand :frown: Not a single workout in yet this wk...ahhhhhh! Today after work and before study time I am starting the couch to 5k, the first run is only 25 min and its 50 degrees outside so I have to take advantage :noway:
Hope everyone is having a good morning/friday!0 -

Weeeelllllll... I didn't get to do any workouts at home, because a friend of the family, who just found out they have cancer, asked me to help out at their restaurant yesterday evening while they are out of town to see their specialist. Last night was just crazy, and I didn't even get to eat dinner I was so busy. Kinda ironic when you're working at a restaurant. I didn't get done until after 8:30, and didn't get home until 9:45. I was so worn out I just hung out with my hubby and watched a movie.
I hope that everyone is having a great Friday, and I'll check in later...0 -
Hey I give you props for doing the couch to 5 k outside. I am not that motivated yet. I keep thinking I am going to try it outside and then always change my mind. Good luck!Im here! I still have one more test tomorrow morning (the first part of the bar). So I have been studying my little out.

I know how you feel, for some odd reason I get lazy when I run outside and dont run far enough, but with the couch to 5k intervals I have no choice :laugh:
Plus the weather is gorgeous! What week are you in? Do you use a HRM when you are doing the couch to 5k, if so how many calories do you burn?0 -
I was thinking about doing the couch to 5K, too, but I have NO IDEA when to work it into my schedule!!! I know it's only 3 days a week, but I'm already doubling up on some workouts. Maybe you can give me some suggestions? Here's my schedule...
Monday: Volleyball
Tuesday: P90X Plyometrics
Wednesday: Volleyball, P90X Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps, ARX
Thursday: Yoga X
Friday: Back & Biceps, ARX
Saturday: Kenpo X
Sunday: Rest or X Stretch
I usually do P90X in the evening after my kids go to bed. I don't want to add more cardio to my cardio days, but I don't know what else to do... Help!!!0 -
Hey Gals....I'm still here! Work has been insane this week that's why I'm not posting near as much as before. I had my weigh in today and I only lost about 1.5 lbs. Which is still good considering I still haven'''t gotten back on track with my workout. Between the house building and packing in the afternoon for moving and I ate like 3 bad fast food meals!0

Hi all!
Today was supposed to be a little more relaxed, guess not:noway: . 4 more babies this morning, one of which was half froze, so had to work on him for a while (yes he's ok now). Then tractor blew a tire while going to feed, so I had to make a flying trip to town to get it fixed. Then had to tag babies again.:happy: Maybe we'll get some sleep tonight!?! Well, need to round something up for dinner, then check cows:ohwell: . Just think, we still have over 200 still to pop! Oh and our other twin that was abandonded got a mommy today cuz a cow lost her calf last night at the other station of the ranch. So at least I don't have to bottle feed every couple of hours any more, for now at least.:bigsmile:0 -
It sounds like every one is busy busy busy! Well here comes the wkend
Hope it goes well :flowerforyou:0
