Hello from MN! Mankato here! It has been TERRIBLY Cold and Icey here. Your life sounds like mine, I go to work by 7:00 am, don't get home until 5 or 6, walk the dogs (except for the last couple of days) play with them wear them out. Go to Volleyball. Back home and to bed. It is hard to fit a good workout in. I am lucky…

I don't belong to a gym and haven't for years. Just plain can't afford it (there are NO cheap gyms around here, mostly about $50.00 a month). I work out at home, doing push ups, sit ups, planks, crunches. I eventually started to buy a few inexpensive workout videos (I don't even have the internet at home, again... to…

Amazing Results! I am so glad that I ordered this program!!!

Hello all! My name is Renee - I am 43 years young and I just ordered JM's Body Revolution. I should be getting it sometime next week. I loved her 30DS and Shred it with weights. I just felt so good when I completed those programs, I finally bit the bullet and ordered BR. I am hoping that I enjoy it as much as the other…

Thanks for sharing! I will check it out at home tonight!

I was just looking at this online, thinking about purchasing it. I like most of her workout DVDs. You are all starting to convince me to make the purchase.

I premake a LOT of food. I don't have much time at all during the week (If I am home for more than 1/2 hour before bed, that's a slow day). But I do have time on the week-ends. I cook large batches of soups and freeze them in individual portions. Sometimes my soups are just "what veggies are left for the week and toss some…

Under the food tab, there is a tab called "my foods". You can enter in all of the nutritional info there and MFP will keep it there for you for future reference.

Nice...

I love this. I find excuses to get up and move alot (mostly because I have to go to the bathroom with all of the water I drink :laugh: ) but these are all great suggestions. THANK YOU!!

We all have bad days, bad meals, bad minutes. We need to move on from them. This "changing our whole life and attitude with food" is not easy. It is a simple concept, but it is not easy. If it was easy, none of us would be here. I fall into these ruts, as I call them, once in a while. I TRY to stop and ask myself if I…

First of all, So Proud of you for taking steps to improving yourself. I, too, was/am a caregiver and for 20 years took care of everyone BUT myself. About a year ago I decided that it was my turn. I needed to come first. I have had the tears during an intense workout. I can recall, for me, it has been a combination of…

I dice them up (as I would for soup or stew) lay them out on a cookie sheet and freeze for 1 Hour, then put them in a freezer bad and the next time you need diced celery, it's ready to go. I do this with almost all of the veggies: onions, celery carrots, sweet corn, peas, squash, etc. Really almost anything.

You look AMAZING! Great job!

For almost a year my friends were annoyed by me, not eating what they were eating. Drinking water when we went out the bars, taking time for ME to EXERCISE, first and foremost. Now, everytime I hang out with them, they ask me for advise, they tell me that I have inspired them to do better, they ask me to workout with them.…

I was 236 lbs when I did the 30DS. I am not going to lie, the first couple of days were rough. I worked my way through them, did the best that I could (which wasn't good, but hey, I hadn't worked out since High School) and plowed through. After a couple of days, I wasn't as sore anymore, after 2 weeks, I could really see…

I have never ruled out any food! Never denied myself any little thing! I just told myself that I couldn't have it TODAY. If I really wanted a big slice of greasy Pizza (my weakness) I could, but it HAD to fit into my calories for the day. Well, during the week, there wasn't enough time in the day to work off that pizza…

^^^This! I use this all of the time and it tastes just like ranch dressing

I am originally from Beaver Dam WI!!! But now live in Mankato MN, but still and always will be a DIE HARD PACKER FAN!!!:drinker:

I just started working with Kettlebells last week. I purchased the DVD, Iron Core Kettlebell workout from Amazon for about 8 bucks. I am still working on form and proper use, but I sure can feel it! I can't wait to get into the "Boot Camp" workout that they have with this set.

I haven't joined a gym. I did mostly home workout DVD's. Try going to your local library and checking some out.

I am 43 here, almost 44! Life gets better with every year! Feel free to add me!!!

I am sorry, but I am not doing this currently. But I am interested to hear how you like it. I have been toying with purchasing her system for quite some time. I love some of her other workouts.

I do this alot. I don't have much free time during the week, if I get to sit down for 1/2 hour before bed, thats a lot of free time for me. But I have made Sunday's my cooking day and then I package things up in individual servings (I live alone) or you could do family size servings. Since I have been doing this a while, I…

Count me in. I need to get my motivation back and this will help!!!:smile:

Oh yes, just boil the potatoes and veggies til tender and add the rest of the ingredients to heated.

I just went home to see my family for the first time since I started all of my weight loss. They had heard about it, but none of them had seen me or even a picture of me. In my mind, I don't look that different. Perhaps, my mind needs to catch up! I was scared and nervious, but my family was very supportive and almost all…
