  • I'm in the same boat. I have to get up at 4:30 in order to get a quick 30 min workout, then shower and ready for work 5 to 5:30. two kids ages 5 and 3, they have to get up at 5:30 and ready so they can eat breakfast and be out the door by 6:15. when it's nice outside, I work on my 30 min lunch break, and eat my sandwich at…
  • riding bike works great for inner thighs up through your abs. also elliptical if your point your feet out.
  • any specific exercise program used?
  • I typically run a mile, twice a day now. I totally suck at long distances, to be honest. I takes everything I have to do the 3.5 miles. Afterward I complete 3.5miles, it's my knees that bother me for a day or two afterwards. when I do 1 - 1.5 miles, I feel great afterwards. but like I said it's long distance. It takes me…
  • I just started this morning. this is my 3rd attempt. I never make it the full week. so my goal is to get through 2 weeks, since no trips are planned for 2 weeks. I'm with you!
  • I'm 5'2, and large chested. My goal is 150lbs. I wasn't in size 10 in high school, and just went to get back to that size again.
  • I'm always Thirsty. When I'm at work I can drink 5-6 water bottles. lots of potty breaks. ha ha
  • I'm a 40DDD, and lately have so much trouble with bras. sore shoulders, and under arms. I hate buying online without trying them one first, but is seems the stores around here, don't have anything. I tried three times to order online, and with not luck. they gave no support at all, or didn't fit, meaning I spilled out the…
  • My husband would feel the exact same way. He isn't controlling. He just doesn't want anyone looking at private pictures. women or man. Take a picture with clothing on. you can see the change. You should respect your Husband. That's what marriage is about. Give and Take, respecting each other's feelings.
  • anyone that's short, and large chested? curious if your goal weight is slightly higher than most I see here. I'm 5'2", and currently 38DDD. Currently 180lbs, goal- 150lbs. Personally I think 125lbs or less for myself is impossible, because of my chest. Everyone in my family is heavy set, with big boobs, and even when in…
  • If your spouse doesn't know you well enough to think of one thing you might like, that's pretty bad. My husband and I have fun thinking of things they might like. How about making a mental note, of something the other mentioned they would like earlier in the year, but wouldn't buy for themselves? seriously, you can't think…
  • that's so funny! Sorry about the job, but you can do better anyways.
  • I didn't diet with my second pregnancy, but I tried to stay active, and not pig out like 1st one. I gained 44lbs with 1st pregnancy. then right before he turned 1, I found out pregnant again. I never lost that weight. so I didn't want to add to it. I watched what I ate, and walked alot. I was able to keep my weight gain to…
  • Maybe try changing your workout. If videos aren't keeping you motiviated, than try something different. I have a very hard time following videos as well.
  • I would rest. one day won't hurt you. but if you feeling up to some light workout go for it. you know your body the best!
  • I exercise on my breaks at work. I get 2 15 min breaks during the day. I go for a walk or jog during those breaks. Then it doen't cut into any time with my kids. I work full time, and also part time at night. have 2 kids ages 3 and 2. and house full of animals and a husband. if I can't work any other time, at least I know…
  • After seeing your post, I'm going to start it tonight after work. I usually do 2-3 days, and then stop. usually very sore. Maybe if I have some friends doing it at the same time, it will keep me going!
  • I had this problem, just 2 weeks after my daughter was born. The doctor said pregnancies can cause this. The doctor did a scan, and said I had tons of tons of little stones, and this would keep happening randomly, and I should just have my gallbladder removed. Then one passed the gallbladder, but got stuck in a some tube…
  • I can't order bras online without tring them on. They all fit differently. I have wasted so much money doing it that way. Which can be difficult when tring to find bras that fit in the stores. I wear 38DDD- 40DD. It really depends on the brand and style. I hate underwrires. I just can't wear them. and I can't ever find…
  • My husband doesn't like the thin type. He prefers a little meat, as he says it, and curves. Maybe that's it? My husband supports me 100%, he even rides bike, etc with me. But he also supports me 100% if I decided enough is enough. He doesn't cut me down, or push, etc. its possible your husband doesn't want to say the wrong…
  • Did you just do 30 day shred? or did you add additional workouts? My other question is did you gain weight the 1st week? I start the program, and seem to gain weight instead of lose, which makes me think? wow why bust my butt? and then I end up stopping.
  • Keep it up!
  • welcome back!
  • I have 2 children ages 3 and soon to be 2. I work full time insurance and also part-time on computer at night and on weekends. I have 3 dogs and 5 cats. recently my sister and 3 yr old niece and 2 cats moved in with us. I know have 3 kids to get moving every morning to sitter. Plus I have to cook dinner every night, and a…
  • I have a 3 1/2 yr old son and almost 2 yr old daughter. We have this battle every night. mostly with my daughter. our rule in the house, if you clean your whole plate you get a snack. If you don't, it goes in the fridge until you are hungry. Now with my son, we used to give it to him for breakfast the next day. But my…
  • I would be reporting it. What if it was a child?
  • the one that came with my bike, hurt horrible. I didn't want to go. we bought a larger one, just from walmart, and it was so comfortable. and we love riding bike now.
  • I just started the 30 day shred last thursday. I only did 2 days. I haven't had access to the tv in 3 days, so I have been riding bike and running instead. But plan on doing it again starting tomorrow morning.

  • Thanks for all the suggestions. My iron has always been low. its been at almost 2 yrs since I had any blood work done. so maybe that is the problem. i don't eat much fruit. and don't take an vitamins. So I'll check into taking them. and some of the other suggestions about jogging before bed, or soaking in hot water, or…
