LOL, I was definately intimidated by thought of month 2 but I just finished week 2 of it and it's tough but getting easier!!! It's a love/hate thing for sure. It's such a feeling of accomplishment when you finish and see resulys although i always dread pushing play a bit, lol. I am thinking of doing Asylum too, again…

Zumba is fun, i just don't have time in my evenings to go to classes!!! I bought the game and it is hard to follow because it is not a real person doing it which makes it hard to follow. I'd rent it or borrow it first = )

Yes, I am there with you!! I am currently mxing it up. I've been hitting the gym with heavy weights and cardio machines and now I'm trying some home videos for a bit to shock my body. I've competed in figure division of body building and to lose the rest, you have to really tighten up on your diet. If you would like more…

I can relate, losing the added weight has made me feel sexy again and I enjoy it way more!!! Try not tobe self conscience though because you can ask a man and they all say that they reallly don't notice the fat they focus on the 2 main areas, lol

An Express 0 from like 7 years ago, I need to see if they fit again since I've lost weight......hmmm

I would adjust and add more protien, protien helps you stay full longer.

I am reading the book right now! It is a great read! I have been eating clean for several years now but am picking up some info that I didn't realize out of it. I just got to the eating plan chapter but it is very similar to Tosca Reno's clean eating that I have been following and if you don't cheat much, it works!!!

Hi, I understand!!! I have three great kids nad motivation from others makes it easier!! Feel free to add me:smile:

Have you tried circuit training? It would tone you up and help you lose the belly fat. A body pump class would be good too. Anything with weigths. The two I suggested would get your cardio in at the same time.

Hi, I'm ready to get very serious too!!! I want to look like my pic again!!! This is a great place and very motivating!! Add me if you like = )

Thanks for sharing!!

I work out at the Anytime in Bossier City, La

Hi, been there myself. Sending you a friend request :smile:

Light weights, high reps. Women can't bulk up without the help of steroids, we don't have that much testosterone. I lift heavy and I don't have manly arms so don't be afraid of the weights. Remember the more muscle you can build the higher your metabolic rate will be :smile:

Love the Firm videos!!!

I always do extra cardio right before going and drink tons of water. The next day I work out hard and eat very clean with fewer carbs.

Sounds good, thanks for sharing!

Yes, absolutely! My husband I onlly have 4 restraunts that we will go to in our area because they don't make us feel ill. I can not eat fast food at all because it goes right through me. My kids can even tell the difference!!! Eating clean is the only way to treat your body right.

I have alot of muscle too (i used to compete in figure) so I have wondered the same since my weight is doing the same thing. I know muscle burns more calories than fat but how to figure that out, I do not know! I think we would have to know what our body fat % is and go from there. If you find out please let me know too!

I use cleaneatingmag.com, diabeticliving (I'm not diabetic but the recipes are a good balance and my family doesn't realize it's healthy, cookinglight.com. These are my favorites.

Hi, welcome. This a wonderful site :smile:

That is awesome!! Love your attitude!!

You are probably gaining muscle since you can tell in your clothes. I have stalled with my weight loss on the scale too! I've worked out for years and I have learned to go buy how my clothes fit and not so much on the number on the scale. Your plan sounds good, you will know when you need to kick it up another notch when…

Hi, Im not a dude but I do know that that the more weightlifting you do, the more testosterone your body produces. I would look at anything you may be taking in, like anything to help with endurance and muscle gain, when I use that stuff it makes me aggressive and anxious. If not anything like that I don't know.....Hope…

Sending a request :smile: We can all do this!!
