There's a ballerina out there named Michaela Deprince http://www.dancemedia.com/images/news/439web_Michaela-DePrince-Photo-by-Matthew-Murphy-267x300.jpg and an indy wrestler named Athena http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RKWttzGlR4c/UImZblSpNsI/AAAAAAAAHO8/m1g17sAYQqQ/s1600/athena-1.JPG . They both have bodies I'd kill for. I…

Today, I did an Insanity workout. It was fun in an intense sweaty legs like jello type way. I plan to work in more high intensity interval cardio into my weeks. Maybe 3 days of harder cardio and 2 for lower intensity cardio and strength in the form of barre stuff. Not sure, I'll come up with a plan that works but I know I…

I don't think it's an excuse. If you look into it, stress causes the body to release cortisol and cortisol causes weight gain/makes it harder to lose weight. I'm sure if you did an online search about stress and cortisol you could find some really good info and more details than I can give. But don't let that get you down.…

It's really easy to go super high or super low. It's much harder to work out the balance between perfect health and enjoying what you eat. There is strength in that. And the challenge won't stop once we reach our goal weights either. It'll always be there, especially for those of us who have eating disorders in our pasts.…

I'm glad I'm not the only one with a pretty eclectic practice. I could never make it through Bucky's Big Blue *shrug*

I wonder how I had any power at all when I had no hair at all. lol The stereotype also includes that you're white. I get few weird looks for being a non white earth based pagan. I also get some looks when I say that because of the Goddesses and Gods I'm most drawn to, I feel spiritually driven to be in shape. But what is…

Hello Lovely

This is my goal too. Over all fat loss and working on muscles with some weights and a good deal of body weight training.

Thanks. I hope I didn't bring everyone down. I have a few appointment set up in the next bit here so hopefully it goes well.

fiddle dee dee, now I want to watch James Deen videos

cheeky and fun

Seems I underestimate Superglue

Wouldn't a few stitches be better for holding the muscles in place?

I disagree. I'm overweight, by dr standards I'm obese and I love my body. I love my body so much that I know that I need to feed it better and move it more and make it stronger. It is possible to do both and it's a lot harder to work on being healthy if it doesn't come from a place of self love. It's really really hard to…

I bet he could turn a knitting needing into a hairpin for me

I went for it and did the jogging and jumping jacks on my work out today, I used my ten pound weights for a barre arm work, I plan to have another really long barre workout tomorrow.

My goal is totally a look. I guess I do kind have a number in mind but the look I'm going for is more important.

I'm not sure how they correlate to weight loss but I like em both.

Right now, I'm tired and sore and sad that when I get home my SO will be at work so I won't get any cuddles until this afternoon. I think I may have to go back on my antidepressants and start seeing a therapist again. Not exactly looking forward to it but I can't keep trying going the way I've been going. So, I'm hoping…

Yes, I am a cat, pet me so I can bite you

It's 45 mins. The kids will be okay. Enjoy your workout and time for yourself. Think of it this way, if you aren't healthy and in good shape and don't take time out for yourself you won't be healthy enough or feel fulfilled enough to be the best mother you can be because you'll still be worried about your weight. Let your…

What changes have you noticed in your body? I'm also kinda doing the Bar Method and other ballet/barre style workouts and a bit of lifting at home. But I'm really curious about the full extent of the Bar Method on changing the body. I have one of the dvds and plan to get another soon.

I just finished Wheat Belly and I'm in the middle of reading Game of Thrones. I'm enjoying Game of Thrones but I'm in the mood for something pretty, sweeping, and girly.

I work nights too. Not working tonight but staying up to stay on schedule.

I'll weigh in next Monday or this weekend or something. I'm trying to get a truer sense of where I am once my hormones level out and I go a few days without eating bacon.

You guys are so creative! I can't wait to see how we all look in our costumes. If my barre workouts work for me, I'd like to do something with a black tank top, a tutu skirt, maybe some black patterned tights, leg warmers, and black chucks. If I'm still too heavy to go as as a ballerina I'll probably play with the diesel…
