I'm taking a day off today (instead of Sunday), so I'm under target for the week, but hopefully I'll be able to make it up next week. Week 1: 2892 Have a great weekend, everybody! :heart:

There's occasional milk drinking going on in my household (my hubby more than myself, whenever he's having a few biscuits). We drink the lactose free variety. I usually have 2% with my cereal, but sometimes I have whole milk too (when I run out of 2%, as we buy one of each). It's nice with a bit of Nesquick for a treat too…

Congratulations! You have done so well to overcome those difficulties. Thanks for sharing your story; it's inspirational! I wish you continued success and health!

This ^^ The exact same thing has been happening to me in for weeks. I think my main problem is that I'm not an early riser, so by the time I've worked out (and I usually like to work out fasted), it's noon and most people have probably eaten a meal and a snack by then! So I've been trying really hard to get myself up and…

I am going to do the ultimate 6 day a week programme, starting June 17th. Almost done with Insanity! 10 more workouts to go + fitness test. So exciting! Which reminds me, I better go to BB's website to order it, d'oh! ::blushing:

This week (and this month), I am trying to watch more closely what I eat. I've been struggling a bit to eat back my exercise calories, so I want to try to eat more often, but still clean. My caloric goal for the month is 15000, so approximately 3750 a week, but I definitely want to focus more on eating right than anything…
-
Well done! Those are excellent numbers, ladies :wink: I'm super happy with this month's results. This group has been a great incentive for me to keep on track (my rough daily goal was to do 500), so thank you all for your support and posts! I wasn't sure if I would manage, but I ended up with 16320 (original goal was…
-
I'm similar; I sometimes feel I only want to do exercise so I can eat more :tongue: Hardest for me is to not drink and forget about tracking my calories when I'm out on the weekends... Whoops!
-
Wow, you guys have done awesome! You guys are machines :tongue: I'm so happy for you! I have reached my original goal of 14000 today (I'm at 14463). My week 4 breakdown was: May 22nd - 611 (35m CLX Push 2, 120 sit-ups, Insanity Max cardio) May 23rd - 550 (CLX burn intervals & extreme abs, Insanity Max recovery) May 24th -…

Hi guys! Nice to "meet" you :happy: My name is Luisa, I'm 29, and am an expat living in Plano (Texas) with my husband. I joined this site a long time ago, but have only started using it properly for a month or so. It, together with the May Challenge group, have been great at pushing me to keep up with the exercise and try…
-
Yes, great idea. Slow and steady definitely wins the race!
-
So happy for you! What a wonderful story :wink:
-
of course! I'd love to have you join us even though you are starting a little after I do. There are a few people in there that are staggering as well. One person already started this past week, and another is starting next week I believe. How do you like Insanity? [/quote] OK, great! I'm so looking forward to it! I have…

Hey guys, great to hear you are enjoying the LM Combat programme. I still have 3 weeks left of Insanity, but am planning on starting Combat right away after it. I used to live in New Zealand (where Combat was created) and enjoyed going to its classes at the gym a lot, so that's what's attracted me to getting the programme.…
-
I'm at 1841 for the week, hope I can keep going. Next week I am starting the third phase of Chalean Extreme; no idea how that's going to work out, but hopefully it'll be a welcome change. For those who live in the US, hope you enjoy the long weekend! I'm going to try to stay on track on not give in to too many treats…
-
I still have 3 weeks left of Insanity, but was planning on moving onto Combat right away after this. I will join, if that counts?
-
For the last 10 days, I'm continuing to do Insanity and ChaLean Extreme, though both these programmes are entering their "tougher" stages, so should be interesting for my body. My original goal for the month was 14000; I need about 3400 to reach it, which should be easy enough, though I actually want to surpass that goal,…
-
Ohhh. Thanks for this post. I am tempted to buy it, for when I finish Insanity. It's a toss up between BBL and LM Combat. I might go combat first, and BBL after ^^ So definitely good to hear you guys think it's a good programme!

Really marbly steak, like prime rib or rib eye. Or fatty grilled lamb chops are delish too. Recently, I've also become super obsessed with jumbo shrimp...

Hot stuff!
-
Good stuff, guys! Keep 'em coming :happy: This was my breakdown for week 3: May 15th - 533 (CLX push 1 and Insanity core cardio) May 16th - 825 (Insanity cardio power and CLX intervals + abs) May 17th - 652 (CLX push 2, Insanity core cardio & TJ 20 min workout) May 18th - 475 (CLX push 3, CLX burn it off, CLX recharge) May…
-
Yeah! I'd definitely join again in June :)

I was a size 0 pants and wore some kids clothes back in the day, up until about 20-21 (couldn't fit in the 0 tops because of my breasts), but I was only about 100-105 at that point; quite skinny for me even at 5'1. I think some can be that size and healthy, but it depends a lot on one's body type. My sister is the same…

Hope everyone's been having a good week so far (seems like it, so well done!) I've done 2010 so far, and plan to work every remaining day, including Sunday (but lightly), which is usually my day off. So hopefully I can go over my goals. Now if I can manage not to stuff my face with all sorts of weekend treats, that's…

I kind of prefer to run on the treadmill because of the ability to set it on an incline, but I don't mind running outside so much anymore as I've gotten older (only that it's too freaking hot sometimes). I used to be quite scared of men in the streets because in my home country they not only can say gross things, but…
-
I personally, on days when I'm doing both cardio and lifting (3x a week), lift first. I do warm up with baby weights (2kg atm) for a few minutes doing some squats, extensions, presses, etc. before switching over to the heavier weights. Back in the gym days, I always used to do pump then combat. But I don't know if it's…

Good job everybody!! :) I managed to squeeze in a decent burn today after having taken 4 days off :love: Day 1: 720 Day 2: 780 Days 3-6 off Day 7: 1027 Making my total for the week 2527, and my total for the month to 6957. Going to try to amp the burn next week, so I can surpass my goal. Good luck, guys! :laugh:
-
I burned 720 yesterday and 780 today, so 1500. I'm off on holiday this weekend, so will have 4 workout-less days!!! Will try to kill it Tuesday to try to reach 2500 or so for the week to make up for it. Hope everyone has a great weekend! Dig deeper! :smile:
-
Same here! I keep on thinking of the Chi-chi-chi-chia commercial when I think of them :laugh: Thanks to all the ideas on how to have the seeds. I've been into flax seeds and anything fibery, but hadn't tried chia seeds. Will make sure to get a pack next time I'm by the shop. I'll probably just try throwing some in my…

Love the Hello Kitty pants!!!! <3 And thank you for sharing your story. Congratulations!
