  • Thank you for sharing. What a great idea to do the before and after photos with the same shirt. You look fabulous and are an inspiration.
  • Hi ladies, As part of our exercise challenge this week I tried something new - Zumba! I had purchased the Zumba Exhilarate DVD set awhile back with the intent on trying it out (I've been more addicted to Jillian Michaels videos lately so hadn't gotten around to it). I did the 40min Zumba Activate DVD - it was a lot of fun…
  • Sounds good to me as well!
  • I'm having grilled salmon with a lemon thyme sauce for lunch today. Yummy!

  • I love making this dish - my version of southwest chicken salad - for lunch or dinner. I love that it has crunch, flavor and is fulfilling. When I feel like a sandwich version, I use the same ingredients (just less spinach) and put it into a brown rice wrap. Here is the recipe: - 1.5 tbsp President's Choice Spicy Chipotle…
  • Hi all, I did my Jillian Michaels Body Revolution workout 3 earlier today. I was happy to find that some of the exercises that I was struggling a bit with (like plank ups) are getting easier. Still working on the food part of things but at least I feel like I am getting stronger. :smile: I can't believe I posted my…
  • Way to go for having the courage to post it. I can't believe I posted mine either but I agree that maybe it is the reality we need. For myself, I know sometimes I get "comfortable" in being uncomfortable with my weight (if that makes sense) and I need to see the photos as motivation.
  • Here I am...all 170 lbs as of today - April 18th. I only want to see this number and my size go down from here. I'm really looking forward to this challenge. It's the motivation I need to get myself down to my goal weight of 130 lbs. I'm on the purple team.
