I'm behind.. had a nice Thanksgiving break, didn't go too crazy with food, I was completely aware of what I'm eating and I was fine with it. My fitnessblender month has been ok. I moved and that's what I wanted, but the hurt ankle on the last week really sucked! However, I am grateful for my life and Arturo, we are both…

I gained 2lbs on the altshift lol

My Foster- Lucas

Amy, yeah, I should start a YouTube workout series. He is a handful, it has been a stressful week trying to get him acclimated, intense trainings, intercepting potential fights. He couldn't be left alone unattended. Good news is that I think we turned a corner yesterday and he's finally starting to calm down where I can go…

Yay did my workout even though it was a stressful day! https://youtu.be/EgMttbIO3-s

No workout today, new young energetic Foster arrived today. But I felt like I did upper body workout when I was doing leash training. Lol

John, nice on the weights. And love mitts and bag work. If I ever have a home gym, a bag is definitely gonna be in it. My workout was pretty fun today and not once was I thinking "arghhh how much longer!" http://youtu.be/Ol-jqCmpfr8

Kris, thank you for sharing <3 I hope now that you know what you have you can better address it. Yeah, I've heard of ailment specific diet, it works well for many people because the majority of the American diet is not the best and their body is constantly inflamed. Healing starts with the gut because our gut absorbs so…

Quick post of my workout https://youtu.be/OjeveoQgp6I

Kris, thanks! And I'm glad you have a walking buddy. Yep, if you are not used to wearing heels it can cause some pain. How about wearing wedges? Or stacked heels? Good leather will stretch with your feet and breathe. I love Seychelles shoes, and Vince Camuto make good reasonable priced shoes and heels. If you have…

Ok bad start this week, I did ok last week did 4 workouts. Eating was horrible last weekend. Weight is all over so hopefully i can make some headway this month. kris, yay for the workout. If I work out tomorrow to Sunday, I can still hit my goal! Angela, gotta get those shoes, it's worth it.

Yay! Carol! Yeah! Thanks Jen. <3 Today's workout http://youtu.be/yLN-NAazKeg

Oh the video I did today http://youtu.be/MrV4vCotio0

Angela, do what you can ;) just keep moving, like I said before it's just to get me back into a routine again. Even if it's 10min. :wink: Kettlebell is fun! Fitnessblender has a few Kettlebell workouts as well. I like the "beginner's Kettlebell" video. I Only feel like doing a short video today. But it's still something.…

Today I did this http://youtu.be/_7fHGwLS8Y0 And a stretching video. Kevin, glad your training is going well. Interval are better than jogging so you are on the right track. May I suggest exercise that strengthen your lower back, calves and ankle. Important but often overlook since you'll be carrying a load on uneven…

I did Freeze and Squeeze Bodyweight Boot Camp - Active and Static Workout Interval Challenge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yNfdhsgz24

Amy, yes I will post my workouts here, maybe even take a before picture and see what one month of continuous workout can to do. I love hilly hikes! Yeah people don't know that they walk over snakes all the times. I'm not scared of snakes and I stay on the path. Thankfully I hike with my dogs so if there's a snake moving,…

Yay John! I'm gonna start on Monday, will post which video I did for the day,

I'm a bit behind, got sick after vegas then I was just feeling sluggish and trying to catch up to things. Plus having a new young foster kept me busy. She's great, super affectionate and sweet but she is young and smart which translate into a lot of "no" in the house right now. Jen, sorry for so many footage, I don't know…

I am tired but not as bad as I thought I would be and the best thing is that I'm not hurting as much as I thought I would have. The only thing that sucks is that my new foster was dropped off Monday so I was not done with the unpacking/cleaning. She is a sweet girl, young, untrained, energetic, the usual. I didn't…

Ok I will make a reservation for restaurant A. I will try to get a nice view or patio seat so we can see the fountain show.

Thanks for the inputs. After many injuries this year I've finally made peace with myself on not trying to push myself to the max and get the "most out of each workout" I concentrated on form and lighter weights and realized that on certain moves I'm actually hyper extending my spine. I folishly thought that since I've been…

Eating hasn't been the best lately Sigh.. Are you guys renting a car? If you guys haven't heard of relayrides.com you should check it out, its like airbnb but for cars. Way cheaper than all the chain rentals. Arturo used Relayrides when he was in Vegas for shot show. I have 3 restaurant choices, let me know if any of these…

John, Sounds great, can you PM me what area you staying at? So I can find a place that is not so far for everybody? If not that's fine, I'll just find a place kinda center to Vegas.

When are you guys arriving in Vegas? We get in Thursday night, so I was thinking dinner on Friday night if that works.

Steak it is! Are you guys are staying in the same area? PM me where you guys are staying so I can find a convenient location. Howie, I feel you, I was down to my lowest I've been in a while last year and I'm not sure I'm going to make that goal this year. Not giving up but not putting pressure on myself either.

Carol, I'm totally excited as well! I'm sorry about your slip up, we've all been there, the weight loss thing is HARD. I think it's easy to just say "oh what the heck, just this one time" I battle that in my head constantly! I have an addictive personality and I know that and I have to tell myself "no" a lot yet it's still…

John, your friend looks great! Congrats! Came back from camping, had a great time fishing, kayaking, hiking. Didn't do too bad only gained less than 2lb. Will try to work out more this week and cut down on calories to try minimize damages.

There is a limit to how much a dress can be taken in based on the style and pattern, after a certain it's almost like making a new dress. That said, I've taken some of my vintage dress to get taken in. Yelp a good place. Even without undoing the seam, by sewing them in a make shift way, you are still compromising the…

Carol have you tried prepackaging the nuts into single servings and writing the calories in big print on the ziplock bag? Also try eating a yogurt with your meal is helps lower your blood sugar. Scientist are not exactly sure why but Arturo and I tested that theory out several times with the glucometer and yep it sure…
