I will take a trip to NY in September. Gotta glow for that vacay

Age: 41 ( how is this even possible Height: 5'7.5" Heaviest: 168 (I was 29 coming off bcp) Lightest: 122 (life crisis couldn't eat) Now: 145ish I have hashimotos pretty severe, pcos, and high uric acid levels---> thank YOU hashimotos

I'm doing ripped in thirty for august!! I'll follow

Once my knees start to feel sore or I get shin splints I get new shoes no matter how few or many miles I have on them. To be fair, if I do a half marathon I just buy new ones. It may be an extra expense but I plan on keeping my knees for a long time

Sherryfood95 keep it up!, I'm in it too :)

Self disciple yields results. So yeah I motivate myself to keep going. When you get up you make yourself go to work. Maybe you don't feel like going but you do it every day. I try to not give myself the option on NOT being healthy or working out. :) p.s. I am NOT a type "a" personality but I admire the results they have,…

Wear two sports bras on top of each other for extra support. It is harder to breathe but you get used to it and no one wants saggy 80 year old breasts before their time. Reaching out for help is a good thing. Try not to overwhelm yourself with too many changes at once. Change one habit at a time (one per week or month).…

Frieda. Do you think anyone wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys?

What a great thread. I am a married woman, so I make the meals here. I have altered things to make them healthier for everyone and so far no complaints :) I have been known to throw out junk food and if asked I will say I 'finished it', just so it isn't around. I can't have it in the house so I get rid of it. Drinking lots…

I wish I had it here. It looks right up my alley :(

I'm in! This workout was great. I like her ripped in 30 and hard body series too.

It helps to make sure you eat quality food that will stick with you. If it comes in a package premade, I would steer clear. I am doing 1300 a day and I try to eat oatmeal (whole not quick) fresh fruits and vegetables. Use pineapple vinegar and a touch of honey to make a great salad dressing. Be creative with your salads…

It didn't happen overnight and it will take more than a day to reach your goal too. The biggest changes are the ones to subtle to see day by day. Remember how great you feel when you value your body and health enough to take care of it! Pretty soon your outside will match your inside and you will be more radiant than ever…

I'm 38 about to be 39 and I lost 15lbs last year but I have gained back ten. I want not to lose ten this time but build a carved body. Bikini worthy and proud body! I am here for accountability and balancing my food intake properly. I am currently 5'7.5" and weigh 135lbs. I would like to be 125 and a hard body :) that's my…

Allaboutthecake, I already have and since nothing worked I asked the group. Thanks for your input but I have LONG been there done that. Have a great one

Thanks guys. I have to admit I am of the philosophy that unless I woke up feeling like I got a good spanking the next day, I don't feel like I've had a great workout. I just discovered zuzkalight and love how hard she is on me! I like jump training and push-ups etc because they are so hard for me to do and I love how…

Thanks allaboutthecake! If anyone finds other threads please post them here. I am new to this forum :)

Thanks. I am looking for what worked for you.. I want to check out programs that may be new for me to try :)

I try to make my weight stay on my heels and for the most part my knees are over my ankles. This however is impossible for me to keep up the deeper I go. When you sink low , it is pretty near impossible to keep your knees directly over the ankles. I heard that butt wink was due to problems in the back. I have mild…

I seem to involuntarily do the 'butt wink' which won't give you the results you are working for. I have tried to not go as deep, change the space of my legs and yet the wink still occurs. Looking for pointers :)

Yes I mean squats...

I am 5'7.5". I currently weigh 135 (I have some pretty soft areas I'm trying to tone being that I'm a spoon shape) My goal is 125-127 with a lot of tone. I just ran a 10k and now I'm doing interval training. This food diary is keeping my food intake clean and in proper balance and proportion :0)
