Have to take a rest day today, I think (my son is performing in a musical and has two performances today which means hanging out at the theatre for me ). Will see how I feel when I get home tonight.

Done. Most difficult exercises for me are the military press outs. Hit all my weaknesses-balance, core and arm strength.

Done but I think I will sneak some extra cardio in today too.

Here is one I have been making a lot lately. Refreshing. Cucumber mint smoothie 1 c plain kefir or yogurt 1/3 c egg whites One apple 1/2 cup or so English cucumber (my preference, regular ones are likely fine) Handful of spinach, ~cup or so 1/4 tsp of peppermint extract Few drops of stevia Ice

Done! I don't mind planks usually but by that last minute of oblique twists, I wish I never had to hear Jillian's voice again, LOL.

Whoops, glad I was able to check in between MFP downtime. Had convinced myself that level 2 was today!

Likely will do short run or swim.

Day 6 done. :) I had to modify on the 4th. My family went on a long hike and I burned 1100 calories. I am on a fairly limited diet at the moment and couldn't afford to burn more calories that day! Thinking I will still take a rest day tomorrow.

Circuit 6 bugs my old knees but I love the kickboxing stuff.

On July 1, I was: 179.2 Waist 30.5 Abdomen 32 Hips 39.5 Upper arm 12.5 Upper thigh 22 Calf 15.5

Whew, glad to be done. And I lied earlier...burned 477 calories today but I did switch out to lighter weights a couple times which made me burn less.

I use the same leg on the surrenders. And, I nearly always burn over 500 calories per HRM.

I love NMTZ and the Banish Fat DVDs! Not as intense but lots of fun kickboxing moves and plank stuff. Beware the surrenders though! Oof. Day 2 completed here. Used 8 lbs weights and burned 20% more calories than yesterday.

I did Day 1 yesterday too. Push ups are my nemesis. Going to increase my weights today on Day 2.

Hello everyone, my name is Jennifer. I lost 50 lbs in 2012 but have been stuck for several months. Trying to shake off my plateau - i have 15 to 20 lbs to go - with different things, including this slim down program. This seems perfect for me as I often do Jillian DVDs but get bored sticking with one for very long. Also,…

I am 5'9" and mid 170s. Wearing mostly 10s in pants and larges in tops (I have small hips but big shoulders and bazongas). Goal is about 15 lbs, 8s and mediums.

Super fantastic job! Relationally, our starting, current and goal weights are very similar (I am taller so everything is a bit higher for me) so it was nice seeing your progress!

Is there a February group?

Those are significant results - congrats!

Tomorrow is my day 30! Woohooo!

The town I live in is nearly perfect...with the significant exception of a Costco. Sounds like a wonderful haul! I just paid $4 for 8 oz of Kerrygold. Ugh.

I am doing a Whole30 in January and continuing into February!

Hi all, I am continuing my Whole30 into February! I feel like my Halloween-birthday-Thanksgiving-Christmas axis of evil decadence hasn't been fully resolved and I need to push on a bit more. Feel free to add me if you want a Whole30 buddy.

Yay, the direct link did it! Thanks! I was signed in when I couldn't find it, so bizarre.

I would totally try this but I can't find it on fab.com. The link you gave directs to a generic fab.com, home page, a search on their site yielded zero results for kombucha, googling it took me to a dead listing from 10 months ago...I don't know why I am having trouble, LOL, I know it has to be me! Anyway, my husband just…

Feel free to add me - my diary is open to friends and I do journal, even my current Whole30. Although since I haven't lost any weight since October, I might be a poster child for what not to do. *sigh*

Feel free to add me. Nine months paleo (except for a less-than-exemplary December) and currently doing a Whole30 to get back on track.

Yes, I would eat before I went and also offer to bring a side that is appropriate for me to eat. I am struggling with this myself because those options won't work for me for Thanksgiving (we are traveling so no cooking possible. *sigh*)

Berries drizzled with sunflower butter is my go to night snack. Hits my sweet tooth and the fat fills my belly. Before I dxed dairy, I would have greek yogurt with berries which worked similarly.

Yum, tastes better with butter but this works with coconut oil if you are strictly paleo.
