  • Hello All! I went to the lake with my third grade team from my district for a few days to organize ourselves for the upcoming school year. Ugh basically I have this week and next to get my house organized and then a week long family vacation and then all efforts focus back to the school year! AHHHH where did my summer go!
  • I haven't used the bands but I'm really temped to pick up some as well to help when traveling.
  • Ugh. I made lasagna yesterday and cooked it up today. Then I entered what I put in it in the recipe builder on here. Holy sodium batman! I thought I was being good by using whole wheat lasagna noodles and adding in zucchini and summer squash. Ok I was heading in the right direction there but I had no idea how much sodium…
  • @Holly totally been there before! (I came home from work to divorce papers a week after my daughter's 1st birthday 5 years ago.) Huge hugs and you can do this!
  • Awesome work! I'm about half way through myself. While I'm not seeing big results I'm still loving it!
  • Awesome!
  • I'm in! I teach third grade. We start back mid-August but basically after my family vacation the last week of July, the last few weeks of "summer" are sucked up by getting the classroom back in shape, planning, etc.
  • @mackbeth Oh my goodness! I could have written that same scenario in Ohio today! We had storms, wind and tornadoes here too! Ok I sucked it up and got my CLX Push in. As in just now..... at 12:20. But I got it done darn it! (I was guilted into it after sharing a piece of 6 layer chocolate cake with my sister, and our two…
  • I'm glad you posted this! I am a month behind you!
  • Checking in for the day. My sister and I took our two kiddos to the zoo today (her step daughter is almost 3 and Izzy is 5). We got to see most of the animals over the course of 2 hours. We took the short route because we knew storms were coming (thanks weather people who said no rain today, HA!) We made it to the car just…
  • @Robinsegg and Skinnyjeans- Thank you! The one who gave me the lashing is nearing the end of her journey and is still very hard on herself, I think she sees her "former self" in me and is projecting that on me (if that makes ANY sense lol) @Skinnyjeans- I'm meeting up at the lake with my third grade team this weekend to…
  • Awesome work!! You're looking amazing!
  • Welcome to the group newcomers! (I'm actually pretty new to the group too!) @Robinsegg - I love your finds! And I totally relate to your food failures. I had two corn dogs for lunch yesterday (not my best moment). AFM- decided today to try splitting my meals into 5 smaller meals today. I've heard this theory for a long…
  • Hi guys! I need to do some catching up from the weekend but wanted to give a quick check in. Just got home from a weekend with the hubs and friends. It was and awesome time and like I predicted we ate horribly and drank much. But today we took the boat out and then swam for 20-30 min. This was an awesome moment for me…
  • @Kaye sounds like you have a great plan! Keep it up! @susan way to clean and get swimming in too! I just got back to Ohio from Minnesota about smack dab between Sioux Falls and Minneapolis! I love it there! AFM- got my lifting in yesterday. Shoulder work and lunges, lots of them! Today was Burn Intervals which is about 2-3…
  • @skinny- CLX is Chalean Extreme. It is a a DVD based strength training program and I love it. I'm in month 2 right now. Not seeing huge weight loss results but I am definitely seeing more toning and can tell a difference personally. @kaye Welcome home! AFM I'm currently working on my motivation to work out. My husband and…
  • Oh Awesome!! Congrats! I'll get there someday myself!
  • Ok all this book talk has me wanting a Kindle! I need to find something to read after the past 2 summers doing things for my Master's I am enjoying some time reading for me! I started the PUSH phase yesterday of CLX and was going to do a cardio today but technically the plan had today as a rest and my biceps and glutes…
  • Yup, I do that too!
  • I'm back! Minnesota was awesome and my sister was beautiful. I didn't get as many workouts as I would have liked in. Going to give myself a few days to drink (as in water) away any excess salt and get back into my workout routine before I weigh myself again. Trying to find the energy to get my workout in. We got home at…
  • Ok I leave in an hour but wanted to share this first. 26 days since starting CLX 5 pounds lost. 2 in in waist, 0 hips, 1/2 thigh, 1/2 calf, 1/2 neck, 1/2 upper ar,m
  • Thursday Truth- First this is mommylamb07. I decided to change my username because my old one reflected my last name from my first marriage. Second, I didn't finish my burn intervals completely today like I should have. It's a 45 min video and I made it through 30. I was tired and my shoulder is sore. I'm not sure if I…
  • I'm currently on the last week of the Burn Phase. I've lost between 2-5 pounds depending on the day and about 5.5 inches all around. I'm loving it!
  • @ laurie I feel your pain!! We rewrote our curriculum during the school year, for every subject, during the school day. So not only did we get the lovely stress of writing it, we got to write sub plans and then deal with the mess when we got back for school. 8 times through out the school year. Oh the joy lol. I'm leaving…
  • @Laurie- I teach 3rd grade (all subjects) and I love it! I've decided that since I'm off for the summer it's "my job" to start losing this weight and get some healthy habits started that I can continue into the school year and beyond. I've definitely noticed a pattern of weight stability through the whole year until about…
  • I know this will turn over to a new thread soon but I had to drop in an say Hi! I've been a member of MFP for a while now and had started my weight loss journey a year ago, then life happened. We had a storm that went through and left us without power for a week, then my (then bf) lost his dad to MS a week later, a month…
  • I've been doing CLX for just over 3 weeks. While I'm not seeing huge changes yet (heck it's ONLY been 3 weeks!) changes are happening!
