You look AMAZING, that's such a huge accomplishment! I am in the 4th week, next week is recovery week. I've heard people say that they didn't start really seeing a difference until the second month-was that true for you? I haven't seen much difference on the scale yet, which is kinda discouraging. My endurance is slightly…

I have a very traditional boyfriend-when we started dating I was divorced and had my ex's name for my daughter. My BF was really weird/uncomfortable about my name, like if he ever had to write my name he'd leave off the last name. He didn't think it was disrespectful to him that I had it, it just weirded him out. My ex…

Week 1 down, woo hoo!! My calves were a little sore today, but nothing else. I'm starting to worry a little bit-my BF wants to take a long weekend cruise to the Bahamas in mid-September... I won't be done with Insanity by then and I'm pretty positive I can't do this on a cruise ship. I would miss like 4 days of Insanity…

Day 5 done!! Wow. I liked it though! I've found that when my HR gets to about 170-175 it starts getting really hard to keep up and I have to really dig deeper. My HR got to 190-something today, crazy. I thought it was funny when Shaun T told that dude to go sit down and he'd let him know when he could come back in. Then he…

Today was reeeeaaallllly nice, but I'm not gonna lie...I had to come out of a few of those squat holds/lunge holds! I'm preparing to have my *kitten* handed to me tomorrow.

Day 2, Plyo Cardio Circuit...I was really proud of myself this morning because my alarm went off at 5am, I closed my eyes for a minute then woke up at 5:40. I started to say forget it, I don't have enough time, I'll do it after work. But then I remembered how I feel after work and decided I could cut corners somewhere else…
-
Fit test wasn't as bad this morning as I thought it would be, I took other people's advice and faced sideways so that I couldn't see what speed the guy and the girl were going at. Becky, I'm with you on the 5am workout time! I absolutely hate it but it's the best time for me to get to do it b/c evenings are too busy with…

I'm starting with the fit test tomorrow morning at 5am!!! I did P90X for about a month a few years ago and went to start again and can't find the DVD's. Uggh, that kind of thing drives me crazy and I know they'll turn up somewhere weird...in the meantime I decided to try Insanity. I'm kinda scared but really motivated to…
-
I started a few years ago and only completed a few weeks...my attention span is too short for a 60 minute DVD workout so I've been doing 30 minute Jillian workouts. They're good but I'm just not getting the results I want. I talked to my boyfriend's brother who's a personal trainer. He suggested that I do a month of cross…

I had a whole week like that while on vaca last week that unfortunately continued into today...
-
I love kale chips, definitely can't over cook them and it's better to season them after they cook. If you salt them beforehand they get waaaay to salty. A salad spinner is key, I don't have one so I had to rinse then lay everything out on paper towels for about an hour (I used 3 bunches!). I've had better luck massaging…

My daughter has one, no cell phone contract needed, just wifi and an email address. When she's connected to wifi, she can text other iphone/ipod users and also Facetime with other iphone/ipod users. Facetime requires even the iphone to be connected to wifi. So it's exactly like an iphone with no phone :)
-
I did almost the same thing today...they brought lunch in at work, which happens about 4-5 times a week (ugggh) and there were fajitas, sweet potato chips and chocolate chip cookies/other sweets. I ate my lunch I brought from home and avoided the fajitas, but then the dreaded 2:00pm hour came around and the sweet potato…

I had to laugh at the title of your post, because I am definitely a Jillian "junkie". Last night my daughter said, "You and Jillian are getting to be pretty good friends, huh?" I said, "Why, because we spend so much time together? I spend time with her, she doesn't spend time with me!". I do a Jillian video 5 days a week,…

I love Jillian DVD's also, so I tried the website-like you, I wanted to try it free then cancel if I didn't like it. I ended up cancelling like a day late and got charged $80-something. Also, I was broke when it pulled out of my bank account so I got charged a $32 overdraft fee. Never.again.

I HAVE to get some mini muffin tins...
-
That is seriously inspirational and motivational...congratulations on your hard work, I know it couldn't have been easy. You must be so proud and feel like a different person. The other class parents probably freaked out and fawned all over you!!
-
I failed the first day today, but I am seriously hiding it when I get home...I was super hungry when I got home yesterday and ate about 600 cals over goal (600 over a 1500 goal, but may be raising that soon) so I knew my weight would be up. I just got too tempted and got on this morning before I got in the shower. Sure…
-
This is how I feel exactly! I'm working hard and eating right, I feel great until...I get on the *%#@! scale. Then my air gets deflated just a little bit, although I know for a fact the scale is a terrible measure of success. I'm scared to death to give up my "frenemy" but I'll try it!!!
-
It's so easy to get discouraged and frustrated, I totally understand. Sometimes I feel tempted to revert back to unhealthy methods (no carbs, 500 cals a day with diet pills) just to see the scale move a bit faster. It's been very slow for me too, but I know I'm doing the right thing for my body with food intake and…
-
I have done all of Jillian's videos (except Body Revolution) and the only ones I don't like are yoga meltdown (waaaay to fast for me) and level 2 of Shred it with Weights (kettlebell workout, level 2 is also way to fast to be moving with those bells).
-
I'm a little late to the party...I'm a 34 year old untattood mom of an 8 yr old girl looking to trim down about 20 lbs and set a good example for her. I have a handful of MFP friends that have truly supported and motivated me and would love more :)
-
I am 5'2 and I have a larger frame...my CW is 150 and my GW is about 130, but my plan is to not focus too much on the scale (which is still a work in progress!) and just try to get fit and healthy. My body seems very resistent to weight loss right now, I was at 146 then went on a week vacation and now I'm back to where I…

You can add me, my diary is open and i can use the support too.

I got smart lipo on my arms and love handles ( I wanted to get my tummy done but they discovered a small umbilical hernia and couldn't do it) in April 2010-I wish I never had. I have heavy arms very resistant to shrinking due to genetics and thought for sure lipo was my answer. It wasn't, and the skin is dimply when I pull…
-
I just got one of those too...I ignore it when it says I'm not in the zone if I feel fine (not sure if that's right or not!). You can turn the beeping off in settings.
-
45 pounds is incredible!! Thanks for taking the time to post this, I've had to learn lessons the hard way. Especially the timeline, I actually typed a goal weight onto every Friday of my calender for the next 6 weeks. I had to just take the weight numbers off the calender and learn some PATIENCE. I usually start trying to…

You're young so your skin still has the elasticity it needs to recover...

Thank you for this, I really needed it! I'm sitting here at work with an hour left til I leave, and I only have 199 calories left. I'll earn some more when I go home and exercise, but it's going to be cutting things close. I've been trying so hard to avoid all of the food that gets brought into the office, but today I had…
-
I'm definitely making these, thank you!
