SuperstarDJ- I admire your determination to reach out for support! I know to well the juggling of the same pounds over and over. How old is your son? I have four children and was healthy for all of their pregnancies to the point that I thought I had actually kicked my ED to the curb back in high school, yet here I am…

Yes! I was just thinking yesterday about all of the pictures I chucked since I was so ashamed of how sick I looked. I was journaling and having a hard moment so I think it would be helpful to me to know I could simply look at a picture to remind my self how bad it got. I'll admit I've been having more hard moments and…

awesome!!!!!

turbo fire is awesome for burning calories!!!!!!! i focused more on cardio to lose the weight and now i think chalean extreme would be great to tone things up. a hybrid of both would be fun :)

Thanks for the replies, no im not under weight. I have a bmi of 23.4, thats the higher end of normal. I just wanted to know if the whole cycle thing has messed up before for any one and the situation. Thanks ladies

DONT TRUST the machines!!! I work at a gym and the personal trainers say the machines are ridiculous. And low and behold, after i went out and bought a HRM that plugs in my height, weight, age, sex..... it gives me a completely different reading the the machines! And this is even after i plug my weight and age into those…

when i compare my body bugg and my heart rate monitor they are very close to calorie burns during work outs! i love to see my big calorie burn days and even the days i didnt think i did to well its an eye opener for sure! as far as plugging in my meals how ever the body bugg database is a lot smaller then this one so at…

bummer :frown: i get soar shins... Heres a bump!

ive been having the hardest time trying to find cross trainers:grumble: but i have super high arches... bump!

yup i'll add in with the p90x, i didnt sweat much and didnt burn very many calories so i switched it up to turbo fire (another beach body product) and no that ive lost some weight i want to also incorporate p90x to help tone things up and get some definition. BUT i need heavier weights so i've been slacking on the weight…

you can put some dvd's on hold at your local library, or netflix has workouts.....i'm doing turbo fire on days i dont run and love it!!!

i have it as well and LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! Its nice to finally know what i'm Really burning vs. the readings on the gym machines! One time i was spinning for 30 in and the bike said 500+ calories and in reality it was only like 275!!! so i really think since ive bought my watch and have been logging in the right calories…

great work!! keep it up! i love taking pics too see what ive done and where i was.

chew gum, drink tea, work out.......... :ohwell: BUMP

thanks for the replies:flowerforyou:

mien is a downer as well. we both were thinner when we first started dating. He's gained 70lbs and i put on about 50 ( due to two pregnancies and not healthy food choices!). Now that Ive finally started losing weight and getting real about this i feel like he's sabotaging me!!!!!!! I had the problem of kids and working out…

well this conversation made me think about a few different things! good post to go through :)

thats a good point :)

ummm ok. thanks for telling me how i "SHOULD" think. But its not how my mind works. And of course eating is under check, but yes the work outs i do matter. Thanks i guess....

Is that what the machines tell you or do you have a HRM or Body bugg that says those things??

i love my dvd's over the game!

i love true blood!! read all the books and want some more!!!

Maybe start out with slim in 6 ( from beach body as well) then move on to the more extreme work outs :)

ive never done chalean extreme ( i have chaleans other videos turbo fire) but i always use p90x as my go to videos for strength training. There long, but so worth the time you put in to them. They call it extreme because it is!!! Tony hortons a funny guy!!1

im on week 2 of turbo fire and its the best ever! I have zumba, and p90x but nothing has burnt this many calories!!!!

bump

Oh yea, 50 is a lot. But id use them & my husband.

i shoulda looked here before i posted :laugh: i want the bowfelx ones but i'm hanging around here to see what others suggest !

pictures is the only way i was able to notice a difference! that and needing a belt :wink:
