Hi all :) I've been pretty much MIA this week. Both my kids have been sick and now I think I may be getting sick too. **sigh** I'm thinking of changing things up and starting a new program by Kayla Itsines called Bikini Body Guide (BBG). It's a mix of LISS and circuit training. This is similar to what I used to do, but it…

This...

Hi all! :) I'm still here and feeling motivated! Looking forward to shedding some lbs. this month and checking in with you!! Let's do this ish! ;)

Hi all :) Just finished up a spin workout and day 2 of C25K. I had a foot injury last year and I'm not sure I'm going to be able to increase the walk run to be able to run again....my foot is already complaining. I'm not throwing in the towel on it just yet, but I am having my doubts. I'm off to do groceries and then it's…

Hi all :) I had a great day! Stayed on track with food and got in a lot of cardio. I did 40 minutes on the elliptical followed by 40 minutes on the stationary bike. When I dropped my daughter off at art class, I saw a lot of people out running and enjoying the Spring air. I miss running! I used to run until a few injuries…

I'm in for another week! I can't believe by the end of this week, it will be May!!! Hope everyone has a great week :)

I got in another good workout today...80 minutes on the stationary bike and burned 657 calories! I love my Polar heart rate monitor <3 @AZLisaLou You are doing so well!! Keep it up girl :)

Workout complete! Between cardio and strength training, I burned 732 calories!! Phew! Awesome workout :)

Good morning lovely ladies :) I'm off to a good start today. I love Saturdays, having a little more time than I do during the work week. My husband is taking the kids to watch Jungle Book this morning. I'm going to do a full body work out plus cardio! Love it when I can fit both in on the same day! :) It's the little…

I got in some cardio on the bike today. No strength training ...it was a rest day. Right now, I'm doing full body workouts, so I put at least one rest day in between strength workouts. My neck and shoulder are on the mend....woohoo!!!...so I don't want to over do it! @heatherc369 Really! You were wondering where I was?…

Hi all! Just a quick check in to say hi and report that I'm still on track! I have been struggling to get on here daily to check in...I'll have to remedy that! ;) @AZLisaLou HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Hope you have a great day! :smiley:

Me again! I don't always get a chance to check in here each day....although I do try! :) If any of you are looking for more friends to check in with, please add me! :) I find it easier to keep up with the news feed than the forums.

Hi all :) I've been pretty much on track this week....I say pretty much because I went over yesterday on calories, but otherwise I've stuck to my plan. The scale is moving in the right direction so I'm happy about my progress this week! My neck and back are still not right though which is making exercise hard....but I did…

The verdict is in on my evening snack....it was good!! I thought it would be a little more flavourful than it was, so I upped the ante by adding a little Franks Red Hot Buffalo Wing sauce on top. I was a yummy and satisfying treat! I will definitely make it again :) Let me know if any of you give it a try!

Another late one here! V;) My goals for April are: 1) log daily 2) exercise daily 3) wine on weekends only.....not daily ;)

Hi all :) I'm having a good day today. My nutrition was on point and I got in 40 minutes on the elliptical. My neck and back have been giving me trouble and I have a weight workout scheduled for tomorrow. I may try to do it, but may switch up some stuff for body weight to lighten it up a bit until I'm feeling better. I…

Welcome Mindi, Melissa and Kerri!! I'm new here as well :) This seems like an active and very supportive group, so jump right in :) Mindi - I've been reading the posts here and I think there are others here who struggle with emotional eating. I hope you find support and good tips to help you get back on track after such…

I'm planning an easy snack for this evening. I'll be mixing 2 wedges of garlic and herb Laughing Cow cheese with a half can of tuna....heating it up....then using it as a hot dip with celery. I'll let you know how it turns out. If it turns out well, that would def fall in the category of easy recipes :)

I see....that's a great idea working it into your day! There's so much we can do without equipment and still get in a solid workout. Awesome idea!

LOL! :wink: Recently, I was at Walmart with my kids and my son said, look mom, this box has your name on it!! To my surprise, it said Little Debbie!! I've never seen these before...I'm from Canada so not sure it this is something new here? It made me think of my username right away! LOL! When I came up with the name, I was…

Thanks for organizing this Heather! :) Did you workout before you went to work this morning? That's awesome! I used to workout before work until I started sleeping terribly. I need to get back to morning workouts too! I have all my meals planned for the day and mostly prepped as well. I'm planning on cardio only again…

Hi all! Hope you don't mind if I jump in as well? Is there a new thread for this week...hope I'm posting in the right place? I'm at my highest weight....again **sigh** so I'm happy to have found an active and supportive group (thank you Lisa! ;) ) I'm back on track with food today and planning to kick some butt!! I'm…

Thank you Heather :)

Hi all! :) My name is Debbie. I'm a 44, full time working, married, mother of 2 (ages 8 & 10). Over the past 15 years, I've lost and gained weight more times than I can count!! Right now, I'm at my highest weight....I'm 5'2" and weigh around 160 lbs. I'm looking to lose 45 lbs. over the next 8-9 months and then finally…

What an incredible accomplishment!! Congratulations on achieving your goal and thank you for encouraging others to believe in themselves. I needed to hear that today...so thank you :)
