Nice work!!!

One time I was in my back yard stretching after a run, with my ipod on....I was listing to a Beyonce song, and the spirit moved me so I started busting out some serious (white lady, Mom-style) dance moves, y'know, kicking and gyrating, dor several minutes....I truned around...and me neighbors waved at me. They had some…

Hottie! Yah you are!!!

Oh Yah Hunger! Good for you for the killer workouts though! Aunt Flo is having her way with my appetite right now - stupid hormones. Had a total carbfest in the last 24 hours. Too embarassed to even write it down. I am going on vacation on the 26th so it's a little hard to get too strict right now, which I know is a…

....like beans...oatmeal...lol

Yay!!!! I am on the second round. I agree about upping the weights and I also subbed in other cardio. Am curious about CLX too.... Way to go!

This. Morning workouts make me feel terrible. I have tons of energy after dinner. Shrug.

I send the Pilates, especially if you can go to a live instructor

Hi, Sounds like how I felt after my c-sections. NO core at all! If you can stomach it (lol) start with postpartum excercises like these ones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbA0hJxH4uo , they will help you slowly and gently work your way back. You want to go slow - don't risk a hernia!

Yaaaaaahhhhhh! You inspired me!

Omigosh what a difference, good job!

There was a boy in my daughters class with those issues, he could have those pre packaged Rice Krispies treats - no soy in marshmallows I guess!?

Thanks, this is what I needed to hear today!

This is the funniest thing I have ever seen! What can't the humble cauliflower do???

You look gorgeous! (And so happy!!!)

Gorgeous! (Love your dress too)

Aw this is sweet. I have to say though, I have some friends who are struggling with their weight, and they don't need me to tell them. They already know, I can tell. Everybody needs to go on their own journey in their own way.

Wow you are super strong! You were always pretty though, don't be so hard on the old you!!! Nice work!

I totally agree, this is one of those types of plans where you have to be really mentally focused because you are temporarily cutting out a LOT! :-)

I haven't gotten my discs yet, but I am hoping to have the energy to stack on a couple of JMBR weights workouts a week - I've worked really hard to build to a certain strength level I don't want to lose.

^^this is what I am going to do as well, since I am on my last ten pounds, but I am also adding a bedtime protein shake because I workout after dinner. So maybe more like 1400, or maybe I will "borrow" some calories from earlier in the day. I'll need to see how I feel. But I need that post-workout shake. I find the carbs…

That's still amazing for one week, WTG!

JMBR is awesome! the only reason I am switching it up is because I have done it twice through. She starts you up really slow but ramps up the intensity every two weeks for 3 months, so by the end you are in crazy shape and don't know how you got there. Her cardio is a little lame, though, I tend to do an insanity hybrid.…

I have been off and on so many times I have lost count. The trick is to be on more than off. Remember perfection is not the point, just try and do a little better every time, you get there!

The Lost Weekend. Family reunion. I tried to keep it within reason, but also wanted to enjoy myself. I am up a few lbs this morning but I think it's just water and will come back off fast. 1-jul2-146.6 ugh!!!! 2-jul3-same 3-jul4-143.8! 4-jul5-144.8 corrected got my days wrong 5-jul6-144.8 (shrug?) 6-jul7-145.8 7-jul8-147.2…

Hi Kate! There are a few of us on here, but it's not a super active group - please come and join us though! I have done cycle 1 several times, and it really does work well. What I always struggle with is the transition into the later cycles and/or a longer term balanced plan - I get impatient, in other words, because the…

Nice work ladies! Any one who completes those programs deserves a serious round of applause!

You look fantastic!

I LOVE that willpower is one of your meals lol. And I sincerely hope that dinner finds its way into a blender? You look great! ETA: I posted this before I realized this had turned into one of "those" threads. Yeesh, just when I started to feel like venturing back onto the boards.....
