TGIF all. Late posting again but alive & well. I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party and Ab Jam early & then went grocery shopping. I swear-it's such a depressing chore now I almost hate going.

Good afternoon all. I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party and Ab Jam at 5 this morning and then proceeded to clean clean clean for three hours straight. After lunch I took the kiddies for a speed walk. I'm all set for today I think!

Good morning all. This is my third day of Turbo Jam Sculpt & so far so good. I also grabbed an hour of gardening and actually did a little jogging last night. Temp is very cool here today-wish I could share Mary-so I'm hoping for a walk soon.

I've used The Biggest Loser, Hip Hop Abs, Windsor Pilates, Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and am currently doing Turbo Jam. I like exercising at home so I pick a DVD and use it for about a month & then switch to avoid boredom. I like them all.

I've always said that the only way I've ever had cleavage is if I stand on my head....Boobs are the first thing to go on me:explode:

Here's my before in September of 2007 And after in August of 2008

Go! Time alone with your hubby is a gift and believe it or not, your kids will be fine.

:flowerforyou: Thank you all for the compliments:flowerforyou: It hasn't been exactly easy but oh soooo worth it. My daughter is right-no one recognizes me any more. I am now a size 8 and haven't been able to say that since Jr High.

Hi all! I've spent my morning trying to post before & after pics. Got a fairly decent "after" pic over the weekend so here goes I did Turbo Jam Sculpt again today...somehow the 40 minutes seems better to me than the 20 in The Shred video-I'm sure it's just me...

Gonna try to post before & after pics Before 82 pound weight loss in September 2007 After in August 2008

:heart: Hey sunshine! You know that if I can do it, anyone can! I have all the faith in the world in you!:heart: Love ya long time! Mommy

Good Monday morning all! Had my daughter-in-laws baby shower yesterday. Baby is due in three weeks-I can hardly wait. My first granddaughter! :heart: I started Turbo Jam Sculpt today. My husband is really getting on my case about my "bones sticking out" so I won't tell him that I'm still gonna lose these last two pounds…

Good Sunday morning ladies:flowerforyou: No planned exercise for me today. I have a family get-together this afternoon so that will keep me busy. Back to Turbo Jam tomorrow. Everyone have a great Sunday:flowerforyou:

My turn....... I thought I would NEVER drink my coffee black NEVER eat yogurt NEVER eat fish NEVER wear my shirt tucked in NEVER see my collar bones again NEVER comfortably ride a ten speed(damned small seats)

Dear Melissa, :heart: You are in my thoughts and prayers. I have been right where you are and more than once also.:heart: Godspeed

I know Mary. I think about that often. I set my first goal 20 pounds ago thinking that I would never reach it. I set it so that I was just into the healthy BMI range and the higher end of recommended weight for me. Once I got there and was surprised how I was able to stick with it, I decided to keep on truckin'. Now my BMI…

I can actually say that the only thing I can't get used to with the Shred workouts is the shortened time. I always feel like I'm not doing enough. I only did Level 2 for 6 days and went to Level 3. Still tough-just a different tough. As far as "falling off the wagon" goes-I can honestly say that when it happens, it's only…

Good morning everyone! I had the opportunity to get my Turbo Jam in early today so I'll post first. It was a good weigh-in day. Two more pounds gone & two more to my goal! Believe it or not, I'm excited and PETRIFIED at the same time. I will need to do some research about maintaining. After nearly a year of being extra…

Good afternoon. I did Turbo Jam again. I like it. It goes by quickly and I don't feel too bad if I can't get anything else in for the day. Like today-six little ones here so there isn't even a chance for a walk. Making dinner tonight for my son and his wife and son. She is the one expecting and baby is due in 3 weeks!

Good afternoon all! Today was Turbo Jam again and then I mowed the yard and vacuumed the pool again after I scrubbed the bathroom. Now it's raining AGAIN! We have only had two rain-free days since August 1 and it's getting old very fast!

Hi all & welcome newbies! It's great to see some new "faces". :flowerforyou: My goals for this challenge will be to lose these four pounds to get to my goal weight. The end of this challenge will make it one year since I started my lifestyle change so being at my goal will be GREAT:drinker: I'm not bored with Turbo Jam yet…

Hi all. First, let me say to Melissa-thank you for your kind comments about my pictures. Believe it or not, my little blonde curly haired cherub was born with jet black hair! He is almost three now & the curls are sadly gone....I love that you think I look younger now cause I sure do feel it! I didn't meet my goal for this…

I bought this DVD when I thought I was close enough to my goal to start "shredding". The thing is, after almost 10 months of exercising for at least an hour most days, I felt like I was cheating myself because of the shortened time. The workouts are great-I was able to go right to Level 3 after only a week but it was…

Hi all! Weathering a HUGE thunder storm right now. Luckily, it held off until I got 2 hours of gardening done and also did Turbo Jam again. I'm hoping the storm will blow over quickly so I can go out & swim a bit. Have a great day everyone! Forgot to mention that I found a "before" pic that I added to my profile. It's of…

Good afternoon all! Nothing much new to report here. I'm guessing I won't reach my original goal of losing the eight pounds to reach my goal, but considering it's the "last ten" and I've lost four, I'm happy. I'm going to continue with Turbo Jam-I finally feel like I can follow well enough to do it "right" so I will stick…

Hi ladies. I'm patting myself on the back today. My little one has been sick since 1:30 this morning so I have been up since then. I'm thinking he has some kind of intestinal icky thing. I still managed to do 35 minutes of Turbo Jam before he hollered for me and then I just rode my stationary bike for 8 miles. Needless to…

Good Monday morning all! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Yesterday was a quiet day for me other than mowing the lawn & vacuuming the pool. We had a torrential rain storm for about 20 minutes so my 5 year old and I sprinted up and down the driveway about 20 times so we could jump in the puddles. It felt GREAT to be able…

Hi girls! Hope you're taking care in that heat! Today was supposed to be a scheduled day off but I found myself with some free "no kiddie" time so I jumped on my stationary bike & rode for ten miles. I guess I should feel pretty good but I just logged my food so far today & my sodium is off the charts! Aunt Flo should be…

You can also use apple cider vinegar to attract them. Make a funnel out of a piece of paper and put it in the glass just above the vinegar. They go down in to get to the vinegar and drown in the cider. The funnel keeps them from escaping from the glass.

SWEET! I'm so happy for you! I hope you have picked something really super to reward yourself! Congratulations!:love:
