Tracy Anderson work outs, or any ballet style workout

i see now that it goes on your home page, it just doesn't give the magic calculation of what you would weigh in 5 weeks-

you should have your blood drawn to check your cholesterol. that will let you know if that many eggs is ok for you. you can also just cut out the yokes, that's where the cholesterol is.

I found myself running from a praire dog once. not my proudest moment for sure!

whatever you decide to do- just do it. don't wait until you "feel" like it, just do it anyway. before you know it, you will feel like doing it and you will look forward to it. you are stronger than you think you are. and if you find your self asking why? why should I? ask yourself why not? No time? make time, don't have…

try starting with tracy Anderson on youtube. her moves are ballet like, great for getting your butt off of the back of your legs. warning, she is no cheerleader, you need to watch to learn, but what she lacks in teaching skills, the workout will make up for.

Did you ever imagine that one day you would be an inspiration to others? because that is exactly what you are, and inspiration! You keep rockin it girl!

I was a city girl on summer vacation in a tiny town in Iowa. I was around 11, and super awkward around others, especially boys. Mom talked me into going horse back riding with some of the country kids, I got on a horse behind a 13 year old boy I didn't know. everything about it freaked me out, riding a horse, boys etc. got…

that is so great! I have done a bit of hiking this year in Colorado, its no Ireland, but I have left 56 lbs in the hills so far this year!

i sure did. should have gone to bed but ended up getting out a large bag and filling it with things that were too big for me now. went on to try on and wash or bunch of stuff from the closet. that bag of donatables got dropped off the next day. i have done alot of thrift store shopping and it was always such a bummer to…

i am flying next week, first time in FOREVER that i am not at all freaked out about the seat belt size. i will board that plane knowing for sure it will fit without some olympian act of sucking in my stomach and then wondering if i would be able to breath thru the entire flight!

Like alot of us, i have spent years wearing whatever fits. Now I want to have a hard time deciding what to wear because everything looks soooo cute and makes me feel good about myself. I also want to have the niced 50 year old a## anyone has ever seen!

while walking along a single track trail around a lake in my area, I tripped over an above ground tree root. that trip caused a quick stumble forward that seemed like a jog. so I kept going, kept jogging. I jogged around the entire pond. I just bought my first, definitely not the last, pair of trail running shoes. Not once…

as many times as it takes to keep my pants dry!

welcome to the family. i love it here, i hope you will to. this has helped me drop 60 lbs so far. if you need some friends, feel free to add me. best of luck!

i have been getting the "nod" on the trails from runners and joggers. Makes me feel like i am part of that community, like we share some secret. never, ever thought i would be a jogger!

lets face it, to the rest of the world your birthday is just another Monday, and mine was just another Wednesday. Unless it was a milestone birthday, what is the big deal? all the birthday stuff is for children, it helps them feel special and learn to count :) you already know all the great ways you are special, and I…

in a diet pepsi can!

I use a heart rate monitor to figure the calories of the toning tapes and put it under cardio. I did send a note to the MFP overlords to see if a sculpting category is pending, and so far, it isn't. as far as portion sized, I find if I keep looking thru the options I will find one measured the way I am using it.…

I find it fascinating to weight every night and every morning. I feel like it keeps it real and helps me not freak about fluctuations that are a normal part of weight loss. And it is very rewarding when your current am weight turns into your pm weight. That is just me,

great, great great- thanks for sharing, very inspirational!

all I am seeing here are the positives, the great results from all your hard work and determination. I hope you see it that way real soon. cause you worked hard for it and you deserve to feel awesome about yourself. In the mean time, I will feel awesome about you for you! congratulations on a job beautifully done!

protect your progress! I love the hot sauce solution, I may have to use that someday to protect my own progress!

I realized I needed new underwear because mine looked "loaded" in back!

great start. your past does not dictate your future. one day at a time as they say, and before you know it, months will have past and you will feel fantabulous!

looks like you rode your a** off! nice job. I bought a trainer so I can keep riding in the winter. so far 30 miles is my best, hope to follow in your bike tracks next year!

until just recently I felt the same way, no way was I working out in public. then I stopped and thought about what I think when I see heavy people working out at the park or wherever. I think, damn, I wish I could be like them, out there getting it done and taking care of myself. It finally hit me that it could be me. and…

Love this one!

big win! I love that people automatically think it was surgery! we are stronger than we think we are!

I hike and trail walk in Colorado alone a lot. I have a whistle and some mace hanging right off the front of my camel back in plain sight and easy to reach. I have also been know to just carry the mace in my hand. make direct eye contact with anyone you come across, that way they know you can describe them later if you…
