I would check out bodyrock.tv. Completely free and there is a new video everyday. I love it!

Check out bodyrock.tv. Amazing stuff on there!

If I eat it more than twice a week: Lentils -- the painful type of gas lol! Oatmeal Broccoli :)

Yes, love Gil! I grew up with my mom working out with him in the living room! Then I started in high school! Love him!

I don't have any pictures, but I am 5'2 and started at 127 and am down to 113! I started going at it full force in January of this year.

A thigh tattoo! Right now, I won't wear shorts or anything but once I get my legs toned up...yep!!

I haven't actually cried, but I got that lump in my throat feeling! I was so proud of myself that I finished it. I think it's happened a couple of times. Exercising and pushing yourself like that is most def an emotional thing as well as physical!

Where do I find my weekly totals?

You can buy cola syrup to ease upset stomachs! I guess it's more fun to drink the actual soda though huh! lol

I couldn't do it. If I try to have a protein shake or something for lunch, I'm hungry in an hour! Everyone is different though. It may just all be in my head! :noway:

3 days! Woo!

I did a super fun/killer boxing tabata with a heavy bag! Loved it!

Citrus and cilantro chicken, roasted red potatoes with garlic and basil, some asparagus with garlic sea salt and some salad! Can you tell I'm hungry and have totally been thinking about this?? lol

Cutie patootie!

I will never give up my creamer! You would have to pry it from my sweaty little hands! :drinker:

I don't really have an educated answer, only my experience! :tongue: I sweat a whooole lot more now than I did when I first started exercising! I also sweat a lot sooner, too. I will start to break a good sweat in the warm up depending on what I'm doing. It feels good! :glasses:

Yep, I will eat! I try to eat every 3 or so hours even f I'm not really hungry. I know I have to in order to meet all my calorie goals and all that!! Even if it's something small..it's still something right!

It varies: - Banana and flax oatmeal, (or any other type of flax oatmeal - I've been eating a gluten free one lately) 1/4C blueberries, coffee with creamer...I'll never give up the creamer! lol - Toasted flax seed bagel with 1tbsp peanut butter, 1/2 banana, 1/4C blueberries, coffee If I'm out of all that fun stuff, I'll…

I have read a few places that when you start to lift heavy, or even begin exercising, that your body will swell some. Retain water? Don't mark my words, but maybe that's why! Ok, bye! haha

I don't agree with that. Your heart rate is still up, your body is still working, your body is still burning. IMHO

I hate being a pear!

Jellybeans and mexican food

I've heard the same thing! It tastes really good, too! Just make sure you rinse it really well. Try it!! :)

I just bought a HRM at Target and I've been using it the past few days. On one particular workout, MFP would say that I burned 318 calories. According to my HRM (which I LOVE by the way!) I burned 268 calories doing that same workout. I'm glad I got it because I'm sure I have been overeating.

I'm probably late, but unless you eat the same exact thing everyday, same portions, everything...I would still log. I love logging everything I eat because I can see it all laid out in front of me. Especially on those days I eat really well! Plus, it's so easy to do with the app on my phone because I can just take a…

Chicken lettuce wraps with sauteed bell peppers, onions and cucumbers as well as on the side, and brown jasmine rice or quinoa. Can't decide yet

Although, I am a sucker for the pepperoni pizza! lol

I agree. They usually have a very high sodium count, and most also have a lot of calories for very little food. They aren't worth it to me, especially because the squash tastes like the cucumber, the cucumber tastes like the bell pepper, and the bell pepper doesn't really taste like a bell pepper at all!

I noticed that about the protein as well! Also, I'm shocked at how much sugar I'm consuming and didn't even know it!
