I honestly love The Jillian Michaels Show. She talks about fitness but not just that. Her topics are varying and wide-ranged.
-
Weights are my thing, as my endurance is pretty much nonexistent. I've always had weak knees (I had knee surgery at 13 for an injury) so running had always been hard for me. I actually enjoy programs that have lifting and hardcore cardio. I also really like just intense cardio, like Insanity. I've just not good at them.…

I'm currently doing The Master's Hammer & Chisel program. I just finished week 2. As far as eating, just trying to make better choices and watch my portion size. It's easier for me to do in the summer, since I'm not so stressed or pressed for time.

I haven't don't that program, but I completed 30 Day Shred a few years ago. I don't particularly care for Jillian as a trainer, because she kinda makes me mad, but I am in love with her podcast. Her and her crew are hilarious and I've been really interested in her topics lately.

This is exactly what I do. Currently binging on RuPaul's Drag Race, but only when I'm running.

Today was my second time doing Pure Cardio. I found I didn't have to take as many breaks today! I'm so proud of myself, and I can tell my endurance and strength are already getting better, even after just 1 week. There workouts are tough, but they will be SO WORTH IT in the end!
-
Rest day. Woot. Looking forward to tomorrow, though :)
-
My joints are fine, but I've been having sore muscles! Nothing too bad, but I was honestly surprised. Feeling better now, but I've recently falling in love with my heating pad again

Pure Cardio x.x Excuse me while I go die in the corner now.

Today was Cardio Recovery. After another sleepless night from my daughter, I was happy for the "break." Day 4 is done!!
-
My daughter didn't sleep well last night, and I wanted to skip my workout to take a nap with her. However, I knew I'd kick myself later if I did that, so I powered through. Cardio Power & Resistance done. 3 days into Insanity and feeling proud of myself. I can't wait to see the Fit Test results in 2 weeks.

Happy late birthday! I did Plyometrics Cardio Circuit. It was hard! But I made it through, and I was definitely sweating. I'm tired now, but it's going to be so worth it in the end!

Our stats are really similar! Currently 206, but looking to get to 145-155. We can do it! I've tried getting fit and losing weight in the past, but always fell off the wagon. I have a 4 year old son and a 5 month old daughter, and I'm just so tired of feeling fat! I want to fit into my prepregnancy clothes again. Congrats…

I'm starting Insanity tomorrow with my husband, but I'd love some women to talk with and share motivation with. Sometimes guys just don't get it! My stats are similar to yours, but sightly bigger. Hope that's ok. I'm excited and nervous about starting Insanity. Stats: 29 F 5'7 Starting weight: 211 Current weight: 206 Goal…

I totally drink dark beer when I'm having supply issues. The yeast helps with production. Also, Guiness has tons on good B vitamins in it. And drinking a glass of beer or wine right when you start feeding can help letdown. Of course, I've never drank while feeding Alex, but I thought that was interesting. Have fun at the…

I have a few drinks couple times a week. *My boss owns a brewery and I can't say no to free beer. Haha.* I wait an hour for each drink before I feed/pump (although it's usually pump, since I don't drink until after Alex does to bed). So if I have 2 drink and finish the last one at 9, I wouldn't feed or pump until 11. And…

I'll be working as a Speech Therapist for a school. I'm really excited to get started next week! I wish I could have avoided pumping, but I had to go back to work when he was 6 weeks old. I'm hoping to have my next baby during the summer so I won't have to worry about pumping for the first few months. But we'll see when…

This is my first post ever. I'm so glad I found this forum! I was just lamenting to my friends that I hated going over my calories each day because of BFing. I'm so glad someone posted about adding it to your food journal. I seriously never thought of that. I have 1 son who is 11.5 months old and we're still going strong…
