I know about concentration, I spend most of my time my eyes shut listening to my ipod, concentrating on the beat to keep my butt moving.... My husband sits on the couch near me watching t.v thinking im strange :laugh:

I too think that is a silly article.. I have lost weight on my machine. Strange:indifferent:

I too had this similar feeling and realization over the past week and posted this morning check out ... Fell off the logging wagon:( My suggestion and is what I have decided to do , is feel happy with yourself, keep up the exercise because it does make you feel better inside and out, but stop the worrry, stop the constent…

I have had three c sections as well, I have the exact same belly roll hanging over the incision mark only about 1" now, which is good, but never seems to change, I do not really have any feeling on the ridiculous piece of skin either because of the nerve damage. So unattractive:angry: But the only way to remove that I was…

Stick with it ,change your routine a little mix up your body. totally worked for me , maybe for you as well!! :heart:

I know how you feel I was stuck for sooo long, i felt that nothing would change. Just rearrange something, Crazy but trying a totally different exercise worked changed what my body was used to and it had to work for it.. You can do it!!!

I really almost gave up so many times! I think the key was totally rearranging my workouts and adding Jump rope every other day uped that cardio!! Im sure…

It sure does, if your heart rate does go up then its a work out invest in a HRM. I have seen my daughter start taking off layers from her workout on the horse,gets off begging for a bottle of water. For sure it is ! Its an olympic sport right!!! Good luck :happy:

Thankyou Thakyou Thankyou I was afraid I was eating to much!!! :flowerforyou: Your a lifesaver My calories from dinner are saved yehhh

Quick question Do you measure pasta of anykind dry or cooked. When it cooks up it weighs alot more, rice noodles for stir fry seem to be my problem and spagettini. Do you measure it dry for the serving weight you going to eat? or wait till its cooked. Thanks:huh:
