    Happy Birthday Lyn! Hope you had a great day :heart:

    Janet, I love getting new furniture and rearranging everything or just rearranging the old stuff, I drive DH nuts with that, he's never sure what he's gonna come home to...and yeah, with all these kids it can get pretty scary looking under the couch, I'd be thrilled if I just found dust! :laugh: The mustard and vinegar sound great...I'll try that on my sammiches at home too.

    Christy...so glad you're excited and hooked on TJ!! :drinker: It's definitely addictive...I didn't get a workout in today, we were running around too much, and I feel really restless. I might go do something, but just had a late dinner and I don't want to be jumping around alot. :sick:

    Hope everyone's having a great weekend!
    :heart:

    Hello everyone!
    I'm new to this thread but not new to Turbo Jam. We did it twice a week as a group in my small town. I found it to be a great workout, but the time changed with the group workouts, and now I have TJ at home.
    THAT being said, I took a break. Now I'm getting back to TJ Abs only, along with my Wii 'My Fitness Coach'. I really enjoy doing both. I can time it exactly how I want it.
    BOY The abs alone feel fantastic! I am excited to do them both again tomorrow!

    OH I forgot to ask...how do you calculate this on the exercise portion of your daily journal?
    I have no idea how to figure how many calories I've burned or the amount of reps etc we do on the part of the workout I do.
    Any help is appreciated!

    If you're not using a HRM, kick boxing or high intensity aerobics are pretty close on this site for the Turbo Jams. I don't usually do Ab Jam alone, I tack it on to the end of a TJ and record my total calories so I don't know how many calories it would burn by itself. Maybe someone else here has some info on that.

    Hello Ladies
    I feel like I haven't been on here in days....wait I don't think I have LOL
    Thank you so much for all the birthday wishes. I had a wonderful day. My son and I ran/jogged/walked one mile for a fitness awareness thing the school district was doing Saturday morning. Then I went shopping. Ended up with 5 shirts....must go back out and find shorts and capris and hopefully a couple fun summery skirts...OH and sandals must get some sandals. Then we went out to dinner..Joe's Crab Shack. I had salmon :smile: We had about 10 friends and family join us. Then we went out to a bar that has dueling pianos. It was SO much fun. We sang along and danced and got rowdy....and drank WAY too much :sick: But it was so much fun. Nursed my slight hangover this morning but now I'm feeling great. I know tomorrow is going to hurt when I Jam...but I've gotta get back in the swing of things.

    My goal on Aug 25th when I started this great new life was to lose 50 lbs by my birthday. I lost 45 and I am so happy with myself. While shopping yesterday I was able to get into large shirts and some size 12 pants (mostly 14s but thats good too) As of Monday I am going to re evaluate my goals. I would like to lose another 15 lbs. I know a lot of the fat I have left to lose is in my stomach area and could take some time.

    Anyway I've been super busy this weekend and just thought I would drop in for a moment.
    Hope you are all having a lovely weekend!

    Janet, do you normally like vinegar? I'm afraid to try it just because I'm not a huge fan of vinegar:ohwell:

    Does anyone who does Turbo Jam use a heart rate monitor? I was just wondering how many calories you burn when doing Cardio Party?

    Morning ladies! Just wanted to check in. I've pulled something in my back so I've laid low on the working out. Hope all is well!

    Hi Ladies,

    Checking in with 25 min. of L & B...wow. I've never sweated like this for a workout dvd. And I didn't get all confused like I sometimes do when there are a lot of moves.:noway:

    I've been working out with walking, so I'm going to follow the beginner recommendations for this week. I'll challenge myself to increase the intensity :angry: after this week. :wink:
