I am almost 16 weeks with twins SW:128 CW:142 Hoping to only gain 35lbs.

Due October 8th with TWIN boys!

Congrats!! I just found out on the 29th that I am expecting as well. We conceived through IVF so I have so much water retention to get rid of, and swelling from surgery! My RE said during the first trimester you really don't need that much additional, it's the 2nd and 3rd trimester where you need more. I eat around 1300…

I was a SAHM for years before I went back to work almost 4 years ago. I was actually in better shape then than I am now. Mostly due to being busier now and having a hard time now to fit in the gym, and mainly having to just workout at home. Anyway when I stayed at home I had a scheduled and I stuck to it! I got the kids up…

Hello and welcome to MFP. I would first say to increase your calories, yes I know it's scary!! I would also look at increasing your protein and lowering your carbs and sugar. I noticed sodas which are a total WASTE and will make you feel tired. Try to eat more "clean" and I think that will naturally lower your carbs and…

How are these workouts set up? I am doing the 90 day revolution, but was wanting to add another workout with that soon. My wedding is in 7 weeks, so need to step it up a notch! :)

I looked at your pictures, and I didn't think you are bulky AT ALL!! Are those recent pictures? I agree that you are not going to bulk up eating 900 calories per day either! Is that your norm?

I did workout 4 today for the first time, and boy it kicked my butt. I actually got light headed several times!

I am a huge Jillian Michaels fan. I would try her Ripped in 30 or her Shred It

Thank you for responding!! I think if I was doing the same cardio DVD each time that I would definitely get bored! That's why I thought about doing the Ripped in 30 so I could switch it up every few weeks.The only thing I was worried about is on strength days with the 90 day revolution if I did Ripped in 30 that would be…

This is when I shop for my swimsuits, it helps so much! As a matter of fact Victoria Secret delivered me a package yesterday that I cannot wait to try on when I get home tonight. :) My other motivation is that I know if I start when summer gets here then I won't see the pay off until AFTER summer. It is definitely…

My commute home is at least an hour and a half. I understand what you mean! By then I am just so tired that the thought of going home and cooking sounds horrible. To help resist the temptation on the way home, I drink my Shakeology then. I also find it helps me with energy and at the end of the day is when I need it the…

Born and raised in Texas, and don't plan on leaving! :)

I HIGHLY disagree with this!! How in the world is cutting out gluten an insult to people with gluten sensitivity? That's ridiculous! My daughter has a sensitivity to gluten, so naturally the whole family has gone gluten free. Well, let me tell you my oldest has told me she is more "regular" with less stomach bloat, my…

That's what I was doing, but lately my stomach just isn't as defined as it usually is and the only thing I can think of is that I have increased my carbs daily.

No it's a DVD

ME TOO!! Her Ripped in 30 was amazing, but Shred I gained. Was so sad! I am starting her 90 Day Revolution on Sunday so hopefully that takes it back off! Going to add some Ripped in there with that too. I have not done the Brazil Butt Lift, but have considered it. How long is the workout? I have been so spoiled w/ JM 20…

Gracias!

Love the bald head! :)

@mrsphan11 great skin and pretty smile

I use a HRM!! I am 31, 124 pounds, 5'1, and I burned around 240 w/ level 1, 260 w/ level 2, and 225 now in level 3.

That's actually the day I was going to start, well the 24th!! I have done it before and loved it. Took some time off and decided to start with Shred before Ripped. It's okay but nothing like Ripped. Excited to do it again! I am on level 3 of Shred now, and will do that until next Fri

Your smile!

If I don't have a fever then I push through it and workout! Most of the time it does help me feel better. If it's just a cold then that could last several weeks, and I personally wouldn't want to be down that long. Increase your vitamin C, cut out dairy, rest as much as you can, and push through the workouts.

Why aren't you taking rest days?? Your body needs time to rest and recover! Your body may be fatiqued which will slow your progress. I definitely notice more results from Ripped in 30, which I plan on doing again after the Shred, but I have noticed results. Good luck!

I am currently doing the shred and have gained 2 pounds. However I am noticing my clothes fitting better. I have done the ripped in 30 before, and loved it. Got much better results with that one! Decided to do the shred first then the ripped. If you don't feel you are losing inches either then maybe try ripped.
