Sweet! I'm realizing what a small world derby is, and I like that there is a lot of support on these boards. I literally just started (this past weekend was my second week of practices) but Jet City seems like a pretty organized, if large, league. They also seem to have a good, solid reputation so I'm glad to know that it…

Hey Biznis! When I get to meet those girls I will definitely pass on the love :) Thanks for the tips also! Plyo kills me, but I know it's good,,,

Hey y'all, I'm also fresh meat (no name) and just started the bootcamp with Jet City in WA. I've only been to two practices so far, but I'm already hooked and cannot stop thinking about it! I'm hoping to progress quickly so I can start bouting. Been skating on inlines for 25 years, but just getting used to quads. I would…

I just started "derby bootcamp" with Jet City in WA last weekend. I would LOVE to see a derby board on here! I'm already in love with the sport and would especially love a place to talk to vets and other newbies :)

Bumping the hell out of this. Thank you!

hmmm...the hard way. I have to listen to her enough first that I know what's coming next :( but for the plank stuff, I position my body parallel to the TV and just check every once in awhile. If I'm a little late getting to another move I don't sweat it - as long as I keep going! :) and LOL to the poster who's got JM's…

I'm actually OK with all the exercises/moves, but I get so FREAKING sick of Jillian and hearing the same phrases from her over and over again, and the same super-light bass-pump music in the background. I don't even do the DVD that much (only when I miss boot camp) and I have to wear headphones and put Jilly on mute just…

Bump!!

WOW!!! after months of reading these boards for advice, this is the sanest thing I have EVER heard.

BUMP! I read the first part and laughed out loud, but I want to leave work :)

By the way... Has anyone thought about creating a group for this method? It would be interesting to be able to check in with others who are having success.

Hey Bales! (haha) I would like to try this, but have one question: i know part of the point of this is to not get sidetracked by entering calories burned everyday, etc., but sometimes the motivation for me to exercise is to know that if I get in a great workout, I am making room for a splurge if I need one (i.e. a birthday…
-
I would love an answer to this as well, since I've been eating right at my BMR (net) for awhile now, with some days quite a bit lower, and some decent spike days as well (what I thought was "calorie cycling") and I'm not having any great success with pounds lost. BTW...i like your attention-grabbing headline. I confess, I…

This is so cool!! and AMAZING job to all of you above me ^^ who have been rocking the smoke-free lifestyle! Here's the summary I got from a smoking calculator website: "I have now stopped smoking for 1 month, 2 weeks, 6 hours, 31 minutes, 37 seconds. That translates into 739 cigarettes NOT smoked, for a savings of $295.63!…

yummy... bump

Arizona Tea makes single serving packets of their Arnold Palmer drink (lemonade + ice tea). Virtually no calories and tastes amazing (not "fake sugary" at all)

Have you ever tried Zappo's? Not sure if this is US only, but you can buy a TON of stuff from many different brands, it ships in one business day, for FREE, and anything you don't like you can ship back for FREE as well. They have workout clothes, tons of shoes, regular clothes, swimsuits, you name it. We just "bought"…

This is an amazing movie that hardly anyone has seen (probably because it came out right when the Sixth Sense did, and was overshadowed) We saw Insidious in theaters - probably the scariest movies I've seen to date, and I watch them all :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....I just made this my computer wallpaper. Hope you don't mind

Yay, yay, yay!!! I'm so proud of you :) I saw your blog today too, and I'm really inspired by you - and thanks for the add! You and I are in a very similar place so it will be fun to follow and support each other. Every time you really want to smoke and you get through it, you will have that strength to draw on - you will…

I, too need (well, not NEED, but really, really want) some sort of dessert every night. I started eating dark chocolate a few years back and now I can't eat milk chocolate at all because it tastes too sweet. You can get the ghirardelli dark chocolate in single-packaged squares, which I think helps because you're not…

You made it to day nine!!! That's HUGE! don't throw it away! This is probably the hardest time you are going to have to face - just remember that. You're over the first couple of days where you're excited about your decision, but you still might not yet be feeling the amazing effects that quitting will have on your…

I'm SO excited for you!!! 2 days is a HUGE accomplishment!

For you folks that do have cheat days/meals...what kind of deficits do you create on regular days? For example...I'm trying to create a calorie deficit of 500-700 calories a day (approximately 1-1.5 lb loss per week), but if I have a cheat day i feel like it would be pretty easy to eat 1000+ extra calories (just grabbing a…

I'm surprised no one's said this yet, but Trader Joe's steel cut oatmeal in the frozen packets is THE BEST. Quaker oats get gluey and weird (in my opinion) and don't taste very good. A lot of people avoid steel cut oats because they take a long time to cook correctly on the stovetop. The TJ's oatmeal solves this because…

I will try it! I would love to try to have less dependence on sugar. As it is, I eat dark chocolate every single day. It's my treat :) But I will try to make substitutes! (Sometimes eating a bowl of frizen blueberries is just as yummy to me as ice cream). However, I am going to give myself one cheat day during this time…

yes, please! This actually seems do-able :) SW: 171.5 GW: 140
