  • I like your thinking! A daily weigh in may do the trick for me to break my cycle of weekly up n down of the same 5 lbs ( 194-199) ! 🤞 Nivember 24: 196.6 November 25: November 26: November 27: November 28: November 29: November 30: December 1: Goal for 1st week 195.6 December 2: December 3: December 4: December 5: December…
  • Day 2: 30 minutes cardio DVD in am and 77 minutes weights ( chest triceps delta) in pm. Close enough to my goal at this moment that I will have made my 10K steps too.
  • DOH! So I had two days of involuntary rest. Couch surfed thru a headache. Ah well. This was a good lesson: I will STRIVE for 100, but will maybe be taking a long while to get there. So! DAY 1: 40 minutes cardio video in am and 93 minutes heavy lifting in pm (legs) . Made my 10K daily goal of steps too. Happy Monday all :)
  • Day 6 did 40 minutes of ab work. I hate abs. Which is why I have none. And why I must do more of them , today only 7600 steps but I have a plan to get them higher: kickboxing cardio!
  • Hmmm. Are you measuring body parts? That will tell the real story. And the scale won't tell you that :) Maybe also be conscious of calories and quality of calories... and when you are eating those carbs. But don't quit lifting!
  • Day 5 did an hour of weights , steps only 6800. I am bushed today but satisfied :)
  • Oops- steps for day 3 were 10,088. And now for today: Day 4 10 minute warm up cardio then 50 minutes weights (back/ biceps/ forearms) It seems odd that I am already seeing a change in my mindset: thoughts of " ach, skip it today" are followed immediately with " ha! And give up my streak!? No WAY!" So glad I am doing this…
  • Yesterday was Day 3: 15 minute trek in high snow and 37 minutes stretching cuz the muscles were crying. But in a good way. :)
  • And now day 2 is complete: 15 minutes trek and an hour doing weight lifting ( chest/triceps/delts). steps 13k+. Happy Monday everyone! :)
  • Hi everyone! I kill me. I browsed MFP for inspiration on the weekend and found this challenge, decided it - like the folks doing it- is awesome and swore I would begin on Sunday but felt I shouldn't post until I had something to report Sunday evening.... and then promptly forgot to start tracking myself here. DOH! My…
  • Count me in if you like- intend to bounce around on the activities so would love a support group that isn't based on WHAT we each do, but more on holding each other accountable and support our individual goals/paths/successes.
  • 40+ years as a smoker who tried all there was to help me quit. Some worked for a couple months but they were just another way to keep the nicotine in the body. Clean now almost two years. Turned out what worked was to just ALLOW myself to stop. Cold turkey using a weeks vacation & stock the cupboards with every freaking…
  • IMO... do a regime with both and you'llend up where you want to be faster, healthier and stronger than if you only did one.

  • did L3 by itself this morning, then took a wee nap! This weekend I plan on working out a new regime that combines or uses many of the JM videos for May. Getting bored is never a good thing for me! :)
  • thank you for sharing. I am so very inspired by your story- and i have bookmarked it for my future not so inspired moments. :)
  • I love to see all the ladies checking in ~ BTW if you are averaging 3 JM workouts a week then you are doing great! if you are doing alternates in between those days then you are doing awesome.... and if you are doubling anything up (40 minutes at a time) You. Are. AWESOME!!!! :0)
  • Keep the pace as best you can. Each set works one area harder that the others. I started at level 1 on apr 1. Couldnt do 1 push up, 1 jumping jack, or 1 proper butt kick. Took a day break for ea lvl 1 and 2. This morning I did L2 & L3 all the way through, back to back. I was sweating as much as first two days in level 1.…
  • wow- how did i not see this posting group! I really like doing JM. Started on April 1. Today did L3D1 today. Its all waaay easier for me than L1D1- so much so that I added in 10 minutes of L1 as well. Gonna swap between L1 and L2 each day as an add on and go as long as I can.

  • k- so I have been doing it for the week and I am thrilled to say 99% of my pals logged in today. wootwoot- ya they rock! B)
  • i put warm water into my glass jug that has a cut lemon. This somehow makes the water have a mellow sweetish taste. No idea why that happens but I love it, and helps keep me away from cappicinos... most of the time :0P
  • I just became a Zipper newbie today. Hoping the learning curve is not much more than "Move alot. Repeat the next day - but more." https://www.fitbit.com/user/39RZTR
