I love her too! I alternate between NMTZ & BFBM! NMTZ is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be!! For only using 3 lbs (I use 5 lb weights because I don't have 3 lb weights) it is really hard at times!!! I LOVE BFBM! It is a GREAT workout. I am dripping with sweat and beat red in the face every single time. It is…

Thanks!! I think I will be doing 4 days a week and then maybe go for walks on the other day and rest one day!

I am currently doing BFBM and LOVE IT! I like straight forward moves like that. I love not having to use dumbells or any sort of equipment. This workout definitely makes you feel powerful! I especially love all the kickboxing! One question... how many times a week should I be doing it to really see results??

I have it too and love it!! Definitely makes you sweat!! I haven't been doing it religously yet (like I should) but I plan to! Hoping for some great results to look good in my wedding dress!!!

I JUST said something about this today on my profile. The last couple of weeks I have noticed it being hard to just have a couple in social situations. I just need to avoid alcohol for awhile because it is really having an affect on my weightloss. I do SOOOO well durnig the week and then BOOM comes a Saturday night and it…

That's awesome! Great work!

When I first got engaged and started planning where we would have our reception I started to feel this overwhelming sense of stress fall over me between finding a place that holds a lot of people and a caterer and a place to get linene/silverware, etc... AHH! So I came across this family owned venue that has it all in one!…

I really love eating Morning Star Farms (soy chicken, tastes a LOT like real chicken sandwiches) and last night I had a patty without a bun and put pickles on top and it tasted like Chick-Fil-A!! :)

PLEASE HELP! I am SO confused now. So I had a Metabolic test done back in Jan 2011 and it said my resting metabolic rate is around 1095 and Helloitsdan's advice I would be eating around 2,000 calories a day! How does that make sense?? I work as a medical assistant which I am on my feet a lot of the day and then I work out…

Thanks!

I drink NNW 100% whey protein (vanilla flavored) and I get it at my local grocery store in the supplement or organic sections! It comes with a scooper I think it is 108 calories per scoop and 22g protein. I usually put one scoop, 1 cup skim milk, 1 banana, 1 tbs low sodium natural peanut butter and ice into the blender and…

I LOVE THE COCONUT ONES! If you do too you should try the Coconut Caramel flavored Fiber Plus Antioxidant bars by Kellog!! They taste almost exactly like them!! http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=343514&catid=284556&aid=338666&aparam=goobase_filler

I thought cheat days would be a good idea too but they really arn't!! Cravings will eventually go away if you just try and conquer them with the wonderful thought of being the size you want to be!! I once heard a quote "dieting is similar to a relationship, cheating just doesn't work in either"

Hello all!! I am also a bride-to-be! I have been engaged since Oct and am getting married this October! 10-18-13 to be exact!! I have about 25-30 lbs to lose until then! I know I can do it!! I just don't know if I am doing enough in the gym to get as toned as I want to be! I have a good friend who I work out with and she…

Personally I do not like spin class!! My good friend who is also a trainer LOVES it and teaches a class I am going to go to this Friday! My biggest issue is my butt and groin area gets SOOO sore afterwards. Also it is very intense, you really don't get any sort of break at all. Even if the spin guy/girl is yelling to go…

Cedar Rapids here!! =)

I am in too! How are we going to do this?? 1.Name-Claire

We got some new ones in this week and I like a lot of them!!! I love the kickboxing one a lot... I also like the Madonna one where you lay out, have you guys done that one?? We did "we are never ever getting back together" a few weeks ago and it is definitely a hard one! I liked it at first but got sick of it real quick!…

Holy crap!! That is awesome!! I wonder if I am 25 5'4" and 155 would I burn about the same amount?? How did you log it then??

What is everyone going to log it as?? Aerobics high impact for 45 mins??

I totally agree about the song choices! If I like the song it makes it more fun to dance to :) I never got to do the Katy Perry one because it was out before I started to go regularly again! We are doing the No Doubt one still though and that one is WAY too long haha.

You guys are just starting the new Taylor Swift?? We just got rid of it here in Iowa! I think it is HARD! It never got easier for me! Haha. We are still doing "Fist Pump Jump Jump" and I enjoy it!

I LOVE Vic's popcorn. It is the "light half salt" kind and it is SO GOOD! It is 110 calories for 3 cups which is a lot of popcorn!

HAHA! That is awesome!! The thing is... how will a quick fix change how you gained weight in the first place??? It won't! It is so worth the hard work when you see the results of your hard work!

Are they offering shirts for the occassion?? Our instructors haven't said anything!

Yeah!! We are doing ours Saturday November 10th in the evening :) I am really excited! They are going to be having snacks and drinks and giving out prizes!!

They have item nutrition information on their website! They also have an under 500 calories menu! I usually get the Chicken on the Barbie with a side of Veggies! You can get the veggies with no butter and it is way under 500 calories! Also I usually get a salad with no cheese or croutons with their Tangy Tomato dressing :)…

A lot of places have calorie counts for their meals on their websites or sometimes even in the menu (like buffalo wild wings)!! I would say Outback is usually a place I can eat a good meal for under 500 calories and Applebees has some good options too! Also... if you have a Noodles & Company, they have a TON of healthy…

Woah.... that has GOT to be your scale! Did you weigh yourself on the same scale both times?? There is NO WAY that is body fat and I don't think that could even be water weight! That is kind of scary if it isn't the scale!
