First week was productive!!!!

Do you still have room??? I am interested

Today is my first day reaching for ketosis!!!! I have been eating "normal" these last few days since we had a party to attend Tuesday and when I logged... OMG!!!! No wonder I am gaining weight lol I would love to be be a part of your journey as I am sure I will have a lot of questions!!! Just to start, how long have you…

@inthedistrict my Fitbit is not syncing either.... Not through my phone nor the dongle. I have the charge HR. It will be "fun" to call and sit on the phone and troubleshoot all the things I have already done. Love the capabilities of my Fitbit, but it is so unreliable. I wish I could just have my money back. Which one do…

I will be joining in as well! Are we posting here or will there be a group?

Sign me up please for 75 miles for the month of December :smile: I am glad I found you all!!!!

Congrats on your success!!! What are you doing to have such great results? I have been on here for 3 weeks and have lost 3 pounds and 4" total through a combination of better food choices and Insanity.

Thank you! I must find out more about the "turkey burn" is it some class you took? Sounds interesting!!! Stay positive. This week is going to be a challenge... as long as we keep working out, one holiday won't kill us or our goals :)

Hi ladies!!! I just wanted to check in to see how your progress is coming along! I weighed in and took measurements yesterday... so far I have lost 3 pounds and 4" in 3 weeks! I am very happy about it and it has been through "diet" (meaning better choices) and exercise. That is a pound a week... I can't complain about…

@ lauraannnelso - You most certainly can do it!!! Do what you can while pushing through your limits. Know it is ok to take breaks and don't beat yourself over it. I have 3 family members who gave up after the fit test. The test is only to set a base to track your progress... and trust me. If you challenge yourself and…

Congrats DJ478!!! I wish you were able to get your measurements earlier in the program. I took mine yesterday and lost a total of 4" over my body and 3 pounds after the 3 weeks. I am very happy with the results thus far and looking forward to what else this program will transform. :happy: Going into week 4 is going to be a…

Your calorie burn seems very low especially for the amount you are consuming. There must be something wrong. Are you pushing all the way through the workouts or are you taking lots of rests? Is your HR getting up and coming back down before you start again? I would look into these things before month 2 starts. I am just…

I will have to check those out! I weighed in this morning, but scale reads the same. lol! It is what I expected so I am not disappointed, but I want my ticker to move and reflect progress! I didn't have time to take measurements this morning to see if there are any changes there. But we are just finishing week two so I am…

Switch kicks 38 power jacks 41 power knees 70 power jumps 23 globe jumps 7 suicide jumps 14 push up jacks 15 low plank oblique 45 I missed the first fit test because I wanted to be on the same day... so these are my results from what is technically fit test #2 which is going to be my base. QUESTION: should the low plank…

I am with you!!! So glad week two is over! It was a challenge especially due to personal reasons. I ended up missing two days last week, but made one up on Sunday, and the other day up today with the fit test. FEELS GOOD TO BE BACK ON TRACK!!!! I don't anticipate missing any more days until next month... if you catch my…

Welcom Speazzy :) Like you, I am hungrier after starting insanity. I have read a lot of blogs who state they have gained weight according to the scale, but LOST INCHES... so I recommend getting your measurements just in case the scale doesn't move. The first time I did insanity, the scale didn't change, but my measurements…

Don't let one bad calorie day set you back. We are still learning to do better... between now and our goals we will make many mistakes. Don't beat yourself up over it. I ate some yummy hot wings with fries on Saturday... trust me, I PAID FOR IT ALL NIGHT!!!! all that grease made me sick since I haven't had it all week.…

I am waiting for my "pure cardio" dvd to return to me from a friend. So to keep from getting off the program, I completed max cardio conditioning last night in its place. OH WOW!!! Did it kick my butt or what?!?! I have noticed this week I am able to last about 5 minutes into the dvd before I get mandatory water breaks....…

Hi Anne! Welcome! You have a very attainable goal, it will just take work. You mentioned about possibly being in "semi-starvation" mode. Have you tried the fast metabolism diet? I STINK at diets and only lasted 4 days of the one month program. I felt so much better during those days. My problem is that I am VERY picky and…

Awesome progress! I am proud to say week one is over and today we start week 2! It went by fast, but it has been tough!!!! I feel very different, but not seeing any immediate changes on the scale. I recorded my measurements over the weekend to monitor them. I am not discourage because this is the same thing that happened…

Cardio recovery two night ago killed my thighs! Oh, but it felt so good! And last night was a great cardio workout! Yippie! I am about to do my last workout of this week, and looking forward to a "rest" day although I hope to hit pavement tomorrow. Have I mentioned Plyo is my LEAST favorite.... Keep pushing play and push…

@tristaj90 congratulations on your success so far! You have an amazing story and you are such an inspiration! I know you will conquer those last few pounds! It is nothing compared to what you have already achieved. What exercise are you doing and are you only counting your calories or are you following a diet? Just curious.

@DJ478 You are following the complete program! Great for you!!! I am impressed with your drive! Keep it up and you will continue to meet your goals! I am looking forward to cardio recovery tonight.

Last night was Cardio Power. I am taking many more breaks than I have ever in the past, but I tell myself it is progress and I will do better. As long as I am giving 100% of what I have in me, I can't feel guilty about it. Today my back is sore as well as my thighs and shoulders. It is a lovely feeling!!!! I still have not…

I completely relate to you! In high school I was between 104-114lbs. Then the partying started and all that wonderful beer went, of course, to my gut! I am glad those days are long behind me! They were fun though! :drinker: If the abs are made in the kitchen, oh boy... I am in a world of trouble! I would love to have some…

I started last night with Plyo... boy has it been quite sometime since I did Insanity! I am certainly not where I used to be (obviously since I have gained weight lol). My strength is poor. I took lots of water breaks and I tried to keep moving when I felt winded from the routine. My shoulder has been bothering me, but…

Hi! I would like to lose ten pounds! I currently weigh 133lbs. A little over a year ago, I was 122lbs... between a master's program, new position in management, poor diet, and no exercise.... I manged to pack on some pounds. I would love to join you on this journey. I am trying to track my diet in MFP... I have NEVER been…
