    Just a quick check in after the weekend. We had some really great weather, but unfortunately my weekend was jam-packed and I didn't get a chance to really get out and enjoy it with any exercise. :frown: BUT, we did have a great Saturday, and had an outdoor photo shoot for some maternity shots and our last family picture with just the three of us before baby arrives. The really cool part was who our photographer was. Any Biggest Loser fans on here? Well, our photographer was Heba from a couple season's ago. She was a great photographer and super nice, and it was neat to meet someone like her. Definitely not what I expected when I signed up for the Groupon deal!!

    Hope you ladies have a good week! I'm looking forward to my Zumba burn tomorrow. I'm taking it easy today after work since I did TONS of housework / nesting this weekend and minimal relaxing!

    Ok, finished last week 6/7 with a 3 mile walk first thing on Sat am before we headed out of town to my great nieces bday.

    Then Yesterday just got lazy, did not feel like exercising & just did not make myself do it.

    Today started the week off for me at 1/7 with an hour on the exercise bike and 25 mins on my workout. Tomorrow is usually my day off as we weigh on Tues nights, but I think I will do a couple of mile on the treadmill in the am. I once had a trainer tell me not to workout before weighing, as you will weigh heavier. does anyone know how far before, will the am be ok.

    Looks like everyone had a busy weekend. Thinktank you are killing it with that spin class. Wanna-be would love to see a family pic when you get them back. Around here wind is just the norm, and lately it has really been blowing & we have a long open stretch, so I try to go out so that the wind will always be at my back down that section, then I dont have to fight it.

    2/7 today with level 4 of ripped. It was a really good workout and I was surprised how well I was able to keep up on my first day doing it. I can definitely tell how much stronger I've gotten After doing the shred and ripped.

    Ivy... If you've ever done the 30 day shred, it's very similar....just more intense. I can tell that I'm a lot stronger and I know that I'm getting a good workout. I'll have to let you know about the weight loss. Over the last couple of months, my body has been fighting me.. I'll lose for 1-2 weeks and then I'll gain. I keep repeating the cycle no matter what I do. It's really frustrating, right now, I'm in gain mode. I think it's water retention, but not sure what to do about it.

    I was 2/7 yesterday. I did 21.8 miles cycling. My legs, butt, and everything else feels every bit of those miles. But I am enjoying the different challenges I am giving myself.

    You guys are awesome!!! I'm 1/7 today with my 60 minute Zumba class which was fabulous as always! I saw a different OB today for my weekly check up, and she told me that I totally don't have to limit my heart rate to the 140-150 I was previously told to stay within. That would have been nice to know about 30 weeks ago!!!! Oh well. So I hit it harder and burned a few more calories than usual. She encouraged me to dance this kid out!!! 38 weeks down, hopefully 2 weeks or less to go!!
