I have been working out consistently since last summer mixing up JM dvd's - 30DS & Shed & Shred plus I walk 3-4 miles daily (weather permitting) & am now on my 3rd week of insanity & my cellulite on the back of my legs is almost completely gone. I'm sure another week or 2 & it will be gone entirely. :)

When using the TDEE method, you do not eat your exercise calories back because the TDEE method already includes them. What I do is log my time spent exercising, I like to workout for at least an hour a day, but I override the calories burnt to just 1 calorie. You never want to eat below your BMR. When I first started using…

I'm on week 3 of insanity, feel free to add me!

what a transformation! way to go! i am currently on week 3 of insanity & i'm hoping to shed a few inches off my waist & hips & gain muscle mass. be proud of yourself!

I use the TDEE method, I work out a minimum of 1 hour a day 5 or 6 days a week. I'm currently doing insanity, plus I walk 4 miles daily (weather permitting) & use my elliptical for about 10 or 15 min in the morning before leaving for work. I have a (dreaded) desk job, but because I work out so much, I have my activity…

i pay nothing. i workout a home using dvds i buy at walmart or amazon for $15/less, find youtube videos, & walk at least 4 miles daily (weather permitting). my budget is limited but this works for me & i'd rather be outside walking in the blazing hot sun ( i love the heat ) & working on my tan than inside a gym. do what…

^ yes, my obliques & abs are becoming more defined & my stamina has greatly increased. Also, the cellulite I had on the back of my legs is almost non-existant now.

I'm starting on week 3 today, feel free to add me!

it's a fight between oreos and cheddar cheese

bump!

I am also 5'6", CW 125, but I'm skinny fat & I'm here to shape my body with muscles & get stronger. You can add me as a friend if you like to see how I do it. My diary is completely open so you can see what I eat. I am currently doing a round of insanity & going to start lifting 3 days a week for 45 min too. Have a good…

amazing transformation! way to go!

<--- no gym, no trainer. I do workout videos at home, doing my 1st round of insanity coupled with a daily 4 mile walk when the weather permits & eat very clean with splurges in moderation.

bump!

You look amazing! Congrats!

I'd love to hear the same as that is my goal too. I am trying to lower bf %, not lose pounds. I hear that heavy lifting will help you achieve this.

I eat relatively clean during the week but I don't always eat good during weekends & I def drink my calories on a Friday or Saturday night with alcohol but I try to work out extra hard the day after or the day before I am going to do those things & try to account for those calories during the week b/c I won't give up…

I started Insanity this past Monday so feel free to add me!

Thank you! I will def look for his videos.

I'm starting today too! Feel free to add me!

I cook my brown rice with a chicken bullion cube or 2 to give it a chicken flavor. When I make a veggie stir fry, I put a tablespoon or 2 in of Teryaki sauce to flavor it.

Aside from all naural peanut butter having the least amount of ingredients in it, I think it's only peanuts actually, I swear by Smart Balance with Omega peanut butter. It has very few ingredients in, I think only 4 or 5 ingredients. I only like Crunchy peanut butter & I haven't found all natural crunchy peanut butter yet,…

I am starting Insanity on Monday after doing the fit test about 2 weeks ago & felt like I was going to die. It would be so awesome to have a support group while doing this because it really is very difficult but I want to stick to it & I know that we could all help each other stay motivated! Feel free to add me & this goes…

I am starting on Monday & would like friends who are starting it too so please feel free to add me & anyone else. Good luck!

^ Thank you. I will def do that!

^ That is what I'm trying to do, tone & flatten my mid section but it's a slow & frustrating process. I see very little improvement. I workout a minimum of 4 days a week, but most weeks, I am able to squeeze 5 in, sometimes 6. Lots of cardio, strength & resistance training, plus when the weather gets warmer, I am going to…

^ I do JM 30 Day Shred & JM Extreme Shed & Shred & I use 5 pound weights, up from 3 pounds. Don't laugh, but it was really hard at first as I had never lifted any kind of weights before. I see my strength improving each time I work out & the 5 pound weights are getting easier. I have 8 pounds that I will be starting on…

I've been alternating between JM 30 Day Shred & her Extreme Shed & Shred videos. I love her. I do see improvement in my endurance & strength & I can feel my core getting stronger but my belly pudge won't budge. I won't give up tho.

^ thank you piinchi!! I will keep doing what I am doing.
