  • http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/55372.php In an effort to improve the health of everyone in the United States, organizations like the American Heart Association urge us all to cut back on salt. But there really isn't a one-size-fits-all recommendation for daily sodium intake. If you are under age 50, your blood…
    in Sodium!! Comment by JulieB21 July 2008
  • Happy Anniversary Mary:flowerforyou: Hope the soup helps hubby feel better! Sorry about your calves Viv-hope the Dr can help. I don't remember checking in yesterday but it's all the boring same as today. I did Turbo Jam Cardio & Abs and went swimming and for a walk. Today is the same with an hour of mowing and an hour of…
  • I've been here since October '07 and have lost 80 pounds and over 50 inches!
  • Good Monday morning ladies! I had kind of a weird morning. 15 minutes into Turbo Jam I had an interruption that lasted over an hour so I started over and then did Ab Jam too so I should be set for today! It's cool and overcast here but I'm hoping the rain will hold off so I can get a walk in. Viv I hope your soreness is…
  • No structured exercise for me today. I vacuumed the pool and went for a bike ride. Back to Turbo Jam tomorrow though!
  • Good afternoon all! The sun is finally back so I did Turbo Jam this morning and had the kids at the beach by 10. We had a front row seat at the edge of the lake and it was a super day all the way around.
  • Afternoon all! The rain FINALLY stopped here. We got over 6 inches in just over 36 hours. Gloomy & 72 here but it's supposed to be nice tomorrow so we're gonna do the beach again. I am getting pretty good at the Turbo Jam Cardio Party. I'm gonna keep it up til the end of this challenge & then switch back to the 30 Day…
  • Natalie I'm one of those girls that doesn't want the "girls" to shrink but sadly, they seem to be the first to go! I did Turbo Jam again and it's raining-4 inches expected today-so I'm cooking and cleaning and baking. Welcome back Mary!
  • Good morning SBFers! I did Turbo Jam this morning followed by an hour and a half of gardening. It's really nice here today-low temp & a nice breeze so I'll be headed out for a walk after lunch.
  • Hi all. I, too, have housework to do so I will tackle that after lunch. I did Turbo Jam this morning and will get in a walk after dinner. Happy workouts all!
  • :heart: Mornin' ladies. It's gonna be a take it easy day here too. It's gloomy & raining on & off with thunderstorms forecast til tomorrow morning. I guess I'll catch up on some housework-Lucky Me! Enjoy your Sunday!:heart:
  • Today was a day of outside exercise. First thing, I spent an hour mowing the yard. Then I vacuumed the pool. Then we took a short bike ride before a late lunch-early dinner. After we ate, we swam for an hour and then went for an hour long bike ride & got caught in the rain-very refreshing cause it's super humid here. We…
  • Good morning ladies. Overly humid & muggy already here in NY. I did Turbo Jam first thing this a.m. and I also have grocery shopping to do but I think I'll wait and mow the lawn first so I can hang out in the nice air conditioned store later :tongue: when it gets more humid outside. Melissa I'm sorry you had a rough…
  • Good afternoon ladies:flowerforyou: Just got home from the beach with my little one. He kept me going the entire time-from the playground to the water and back and forth for four hours. That must count for something extra to eat??? I did Turbo Jam again this morning. I think I'm finally getting the hang of it. :wink:
  • Good afternoon ladies! I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party again. I'm liking it so far. I also mowed the yard and washed my truck. Headed out for a bike ride after lunch. Everyone have a great day!:flowerforyou:
  • I had a situation just like this over the weekend. We had a family BBQ and my mother arrived late so I had already eaten. She gave me her "what's wrong with you" face and said "have you eaten?"...Well-being pretty sick of hearing her say "Please take care of yourself" - I calmly said "Yea I'm pretty sure I ate…
  • Happy Monday all! Boredom has set in yet again. I decided to dust off the Turbo Jam Cardio and actually enjoyed it. I think I'll stick with that for a bit. Nothing else really scheduled for today except the playground this afternoon. Have a great day everyone!
  • Evening ladies! Better late than never...I started my day out with Hip Hop Abs Total Body Burn and proceded to spend the rest of the day preparing for a family cook-out & swim party tomorrow. My kids and grandkids will all be here. :heart: I'm not so good at scheduled exercise on the weekends so I will "see' you all on…
  • Hey all. I didn't get to post yesterday either. Kinda crazy around here. I did Level 3 Shred again yesterday and a bunch of walking with the kids and today I switched (out of boredom) to Shaun's Total Body Burn. I actually miss the constant cardio. VERY humid and storming here in NY today so no walking here.
  • Well-sort of. I don't get on the scale several times a day but I do weigh myself every morning. I find that it keeps me in touch with how my eating is going and also how my body reacts to different circumstances like how much(or how litte) water I drink, how my body deals with too much sodium and that time of the month. I…
  • Good morning all! I hope everyone had a great holiday:flowerforyou: I did the Level 3 Shred again and followed it up with a mile walk. Very humid here already so I'm glad I went early.
  • Good morning ladies! Nice to have all of you join us! No Shred today-time constraint after #2 son had issues with his car this a.m. & I became a chauffer. It actually worked out well because I came home & went right outside & accomplished a lot of the yard work that I have been dreading. 2 1/2 hours later my back yard…
  • It's the second task I do every day. First, I deliver newspapers & then I'm home & exercising. That way-it's out of the way. After a little while, it became routine. How is your boo boo?
  • Happy hump day SBF'ers! I did Level 3 Shred again-I sound like a broken record but my daughter lent the rest of my DVD's to a friend to copy:explode: so I'm waiting for their return. Will probably do the Shred til the end of next week & go back to the Cardio Max for a couple of weeks. I also mowed the lawn AGAIN-too much…
  • Happy Birthday MM:flowerforyou: Hope you have a great day! Usual here-after my 10 plus mile bike ride last night I was pretty sure that Jillian would get the best of me but I motored right through The Shred again. Headed out now for a walk around the block-maybe two if I can talk the kids into it. Two times around my block…
  • OK-last update for today. Turns out my after dinner walk turned into 8 miles on my stationary bike and then another 3 around the neighborhood with my son. It was a good exercise day for me! Good night SBFers! :flowerforyou:

  • Hi ladies! Thankfully, other than my niece's graduation, I had a very uneventful weekend and didn't really do any structured exercise other than shopping and a couple of walks. Today I did The Shred Level 3 again. We also snuck in a walk before lunch and then I mowed the yard and trimmed three HUGE hedges. Huge like on a…
  • I LOVE the Shred! I did Level One twice, Level Two six times and today was day 8 at Level Three. I've definately seen nice improvements-especially in my lower tummy. I use 5 pound dumbbells and do the workout Monday-Friday....GOOD STUFF!
