Congrats!!!!! You did SO amazing that is such a great time. I have mine this Sunday!! Can't wait to see your tattoo :)

I agree with this 100%. As a 'skinny sorority girl' myself (who was ANYTHING but skinny a yeah and a half ago) when I see other girls in the gym who are overweight I am proud of them and think wow good for them and think nothing but positive thoughts about ANYONE looking to better themselves and become healthy. Who cares…

I completed insanity about a month ago. I wouldn't call it a short cut - it is hard as hell! It did give me a bunch of knee pain though when I was doing it :/ But overall it was a good and tough cardio session... really helped with my endurance!

I am starting my 4th week of LiveFit today! I was nervous about the no cardio thing too but like Rochelle said it's necessary during Phase 1 to try and build as much muscle as possible. I couldn't help myself and went for a run this past weekend haha but I figured one time wouldn't hurt.

Haha yes! I get 99% of my sports bras from target. They have a lot in pretty/bright colors too :) I do wish my boobs were a lil bigger but it is nice that I don't have to wear a bra all the time and they can be FREEEE :bigsmile:

"oh your pants just shrunk in the wash" -- nope i was just getting fatter! "being skinny just isn't in the cards for you. 99% of your family is overweight and you are destined for that too... can't change genetics" -- while i still know you can't change genetics i know if i work hard and eat right i CAN change my body and…

Woooo! That's great! You are such a hard worker of course it is going to pay off :flowerforyou:

Yeah get a dog... that'll scare them away... like in Stand by Me.... "CHOPPER SICK BALLS!!!" hahahaha

I'm 22! Not 'hot' yet but working on it!!! YAY for being in our 20's :)

You look amazing!!! Well done!!! And I am SO jealous of your vacation... looks like a lot of fun!!! :)

THANK YOU everyone for your feedback!!!! I am gonna start looking into some of the things you suggested and I REALLY am going to try improve my diet more. I am so excited to finally start lifting and can't wait to see how I can change my body over the course of the next 3-4 months!

wow i love this! such a great idea! you look amazing and are proof that age is only a number!

AMAZINGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! My goal is to do a sprint triathlon one day too. You are such an inspiration!! :) Great job! I hope you are super proud of all you have accomplished!

I love seeing all these cute pics! ^ That's Nittany (white male) and Chula (female). My roomies and I adopted them from the SPCA about a year and a half ago. Love them both so much!!!

bump! curious to know some of these numbers once i start lifting! great job ladies you all are kicking *kitten* :)

^ Yeah I'm with them. I have Nike+ shoes for running but for Insanity they weren't cutting it. So I bought another pair of Nike shoes that were more of a cross trainer and not made just for running... didn't help. I also tried KSwiss Tubes... still didn't help. So I do Insanity bare foot and NO problems what-so-ever!!! (I…

Hey! I am 22 as well :) Where I go to school there is a really popular 5 year program I am in where you go to school freshman year and get a summer vacation, then for the next three years you are in school for 6 months then co-op full time for 6 months, then senior year you are back in classes all year until the spring.…

Great work girl! You are making some amazing progress :)

hahahahaha love this

Mine is a picture the photographer captured of me in the middle of a 10k Mud Run I did two weekends ago. Fun times :)

Yeah I agree. DUMP HIS *kitten*!!! If he says he is not attracted to you now how do you know he ever will be? I have total confidence in you to drop the weight and I know you can do it but what if (just saying) it doesn't happen right away or at all? You do not want to be in a relationship with someone who flat out says…

I LOVE Jillian!!!! (like you couldn't tell from my ticker haha) She is my favorite. I have pretty much all of her DVD's and would recommend many of them! I disagree with some of the products she sells though (as I think some are quite hypocritical) but overall I think she is a wonderful person/coach! Her videos have helped…

You are not too old at all!!!! One of my sorority sisters just learned and she is 20! I truly believe you can learn to ride a bike at any age. I strongly encourage you to teach yourself! It is not only a great cardio workout but also a lot of fun once you get better at it! Don't forget to wear a helmet.... I know some…

Hey! Yes I think you should take a rest day in-between weeks/levels. Rest days are important so be sure to take at least 1 day off per week (and Jillian also recommends this). I personally started with Ripped in 30. I did that a few times actually and increased the weight I could lift as I got stronger. I also did…
