I have had four kids and although I have lost 11 pounds the tummy is my toughest place to tone. Planks seem to help, lots of them! I do reps of sits ups and other ab exercises and then planks in between my sets.

I was diagnosed with RLS about six months ago and I was NOT happy about it! The thought of being on medication the rest of my life kind of pissed me off. I have tried to not take my medication and I am miserable. My pain was mainly in my legs - a nagging pain that felt like your muscles or bones (mine is deep leg pains…

OMG! Great post! I found myself grimacing in disgust and laughing out loud the next moment....thanks for some comedic therapy before I head to the gym! And thankful to not have ever fallen victim to any weight loss hype or having to construct toilet paper crack-wedges in Applebee's! Have a great day!

Fairly new to MFP and this is what I love! I try to tell my friends about the site and always hope they will check it out! The motivation, support and sometimes, just a place to vent, are just a few reasons I LOVE this site! I work at our local Y as a Wellness Coach and your attitude is contagious! After letting myself go…

Hooray! Your good habits are rubbing off on your son! Keep up the great work!

Mom of 4 children ranging in age from 13-5 years! Would love some other moms as friends! Feel free to add me and let help and cheer eachother on!

Fantastic results! Great Job!!!! WooHoo!:happy:

You look fantastic! Way to go!!!

You are wearing a white T and are sporting a five o'clock shadow :)

Hmmm...great question! I work out 6 days a week and take Sunday off (however I may need to walk the dog or something because I see a beer in my future during the football games today!) I feel like we need to let our body rest and heal itself during the week. I will be anxious to hear the input on this one! Thanks for…

Hi! I am an Indiana mom of four and would love to help eachother with this weight loss thing!!! I need to lose 20 pounds and am two weeks in to my goal! Add me and lets help kick these extra calories to the curb! Yum.....pizza, bagels....:smile:

Count me in! Rene :ohwell:

My sister (a vegan! Totally figures) raved about it. She pushed me to read it and I hated it - didn't even finish it! I thought parts were funny, but they bash anyone who happens to like the foods they find disgusting! Total waste of time and money! Agreed!

Music totally motivates me...without it, my workout is not the same! Some favorites of mine are: Glycerine (Bush), Good Feeling (Flo Rida), Times Like These (Foo Fighters), Creep (Radiohead),Otherside (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Called out in the Dark (Snow patrol), Head Full of Doubt (The Avett Brothers),Lonely Boy (The…

Yes! I love the caring nature and humor of so many people on this site! Not to mention a few great profile picts....:wink: However I am not friends with very many people....two weeks in to using MFP and just a couple days of looking at the message boards! I am ashamed to say, it's addicting!

Holy crap! You look awesome....keep up the great work! Pictures are a true look at how the body changes even when we may not see it ourselves! Thanks for posting your story!

How much is it and where can I get it? Love the idea of doing it right along with other people!!

Actor girl, hi! I work at our local YMCA and we just started offering this class. To help promote it we having been playing a video/testimonial --looks like a great way to burn calories and have fun! I have been meaning to jump in on a class - you've given me the push! I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks! Btw, my battery…

Hi Theresa! Where in Indiana are you? Live in Indianapolis and am a mom of 4....trying to lose 20 lbs by June 1! I am jealous of your 6 pound weight loss - way to go!!!!!!!

Fire in the fireplace, all the kids are in their pjs playing upstairs.....time to watch a good movie and have a nice, cold beer with my husband! I love my life! :wink:

Agreed! Not sure how some women expect to really work out when they have to worry about falling out of their clothes! I go to the gym 6 days a week and it is to sweat and kick butt! I am proud of the fact that when I am done spinning or using the stairmaster other gym goers know I am "getting it done"!!!!

Me too!!!!! My husband and I have given up alcohol during the week, but it's the weekend and I have been a good girl this week! Beverage of choice is a very cold Bud Light! I just checked and I still have plenty of calories to use.....yeah!

When the only muffin top you have is the one you purchased at Starbucks! (And only took a small bite because you didn't want it back around your waist!) :happy:

That is me exactly! I am new and need to post a picture, but I am two weeks in and hope to have the weight off by June 1! How old are you?

Love tortilla chips (low fat) and salsa. If I am craving sweet, i go for carmel flavored rice cakes or an orange. :)

40 Minutes on AMT (similar to an an eliptical but a bit harder), 20 on the Stairmaster and 20 weight training...ugh! Glad its done! :)

Indianapolis, Indiana! Brrr.....:smile:
