knew I shouldn't have done it!!! It is a nice tip though, thanks!

too slow! No no marathon for me - hate running! Is married?

I also just started Insanity (day 3 today) and my legs are sore! Feel free to add me, there are several of my MFP friends who are doing it! The more the merrier!

I had a guy at work say to me "So did you give up eating?". I knew what he meant though and he's a nice guy, so I took it as a compliment!

Just get the HRM, you'll seriously thank yourself for getting one. You can pick up a Polar FT4 for around $50-$60 and it's super accurate. [/quote] Thanks! P.S. congrats on your awesome weight loss!

Cardio and core work. I still have a little squishiness left but just started Insanity yesterday so I'm hoping that will tone the rest up!

Thanks for the replies! I was looking for an alternative to a HRM, but I may just have to break down and buy one. I've been trying to download the app to test it out and my phone isn't downloading it (don't know why!).

I prefer a little loose to tight! Hate the feeling of not being able to be comfortable.

5'5" Waist: 28 Hips: 39

This works for me too, especially if I know that I don't have a lot of calories left for the day. It amazed me in the beginning how much i was actually eating! (i.e. i was shocked that one Blow Pop sucker was 60 calories!) If you have a smart phone with the app then its makes it easier. If you are over a day here and there…

It doesn't sound like you are eating enough? 1200 calories isn't very much. I started out my settings at 1 lb a week which gave me 1420 calories. It seems like everyone I know that has their calories at 1200 doesn't lose weight and once they change their setting and get more calories in them they start losing. Good luck!

I did one last October in Virginia and am doing my second one this June in Ohio! It was tons of fun! Be prepared to get filthy!!!

This!!! I hate being between sizes! My clothes don't fit but I also don't want to go out and spend lots of money on clothes when I'm still losing. I've already done it once and those clothes are big too! I'm happy that I'm getting thinner, but it is annoying:)

I'm over on my sugar everyday too and so far I'm still losing weight. My sugar is often not the "good" sugar either, I have a horrible sweet tooth! At this point I'm not too concerned with it.

You and I are similar! I'm 34, 5'5" and current weight is 138. I would like to get down to 130ish and like you said, maintain and tone. There is a small group of us on Facebook that are going to be starting a Beachbody Challenge Group using Insanity if you are interested! I hear that it is a great way to get toned. As far…

Is there any way to save these so I have them for later?! They sound delicious!

Flintstones! I was talking a women's multi-vitamin but they were horse pills and had a horrible aftertaste. A friend of mine told me about someone she knew that was pregnant and couldn't swallow pills and her doctor recommended Flintstones to her. I figured if a pregnant person can take them so can I! There is an adult…

I have a pair of Oakley board shorts that I bought several years ago and could never fit into. I tried them on last week and they actually fit! Now I'm afraid that they might be too big for summer! So I guess my new target outfit will have to be a new bikini:)

the "Cuppycake Song" for my husband (he hates it so I love it even more!) and an instrumental melody for everyone else. Just got a new phone recently and haven't taken the time to personalize it yet!

I know this is me at the gym and probably about 90% of everyone else! Even if you are in a class everyone is concentrating on getting the moves right that no one has time to pay attention to what everyone else is doing (unless it's to see what we are doing wrong!). Once you get into a routine you won't feel self conscious:)

Mine is public for accountability and because it makes me think about what I'm eating/how much I eat because I know other people are going to look at it. I also like to see other people's diaries because they might give me an idea of other things to try.

I have about 8-10 more pounds to go, but I'd really like to tone more of what I have, so I'm not overly concerned with the exact number I end up at.

This for me as well! I'm In between a 6 and an 8 right now. I'd also like to fit into a size 28 at Buckle for my jeans!

I don't! I too am over on my sugar everyday. At this point I'm not so concerned about it as I'm still losing weight and doing a good job (for the most part) elsewhere. I may try to tame the sugar beast at some point, but I don't know if my sweet tooth will let me!!!

I'm 5'5" as well but always wear heels so people think I'm taller than I am! I've always wanted to be 5'8" so the 3" heels work well!

A pair of Oakley board shorts that I bought a couple years ago that have always been too small for me! I tried them on a week or so ago and they should fit perfect by summer! They fit, but were still a little more snug in the thigh than I would like!

Cold Stone Mud Pie Mojo!!!!!

I don't know about the benefits of it, but I also do not eat before going to the gym in the morning (I go three mornings a week and take a 45 min. Spin class). I find (like you) that if I eat before I go to the gym I get sick to my stomach during the work out.

Wow! I didn't realize some of these sizes existed (no offense!!!)! I was a 36 B now probably a 34 B (with some room in the cup). I don't want them to get smaller!!!!
