I hate it too!! I feel like only older ladies should be called ma'am...

I think it is definitely enough! When I first started on my fitness journey I was doing JM's DVDs and got muscle definition! I would also suggest looking up Benderfitness.com and zuzkalight.com they have an amazing physique and do mostly body weight exercises!

I think the best way to start is to add in clean foods as opposed to just taking things away. For example, add a serving of veggies with your dinner, even if you're having pizza. Saute some onion, bell pepper, and zucchini. Start carrying baby carrots, sliced cucumbers, celery, etc. as a snack when you are at work/school,…

Eat an apple and have some green tea.

Ran another 13 miles today (technically 13.1 as a practice half marathon!)!! WTD 33.5 MTD 33.5

I thought I already posted and said I wanted in a couple days ago, but I didn't so I must be losing my mind! Ah! Anyway, I'm in for 80 miles this month! Thank you!! My week so far: Tuesday 1/1- 3 miles Wednesday 1/2- 5.5 miles Thursday 1/3- 7 miles Friday 1/4 5 miles WTD: 20.5 MTD: 20.5

I'm in for 75 miles again!

I'm sooo late!!! Sorry! This week I ran: 12/26: 6 miles 12/28: 5 miles 12/30: 12 miles WTD: 23 miles!

For some reason last week wasn't put in for me, here's what I ran last week: 12/16 - 2 miles 12/17 - 5 miles 12/19- 4 miles 12/21- 7 miles 12/23- 11 miles Total for last week: 29 miles MTD: 74 miles

Ran 6.5 miles yesterday! WTD: 18.5 miles!

Here's my week so far: Sun- 2 miles Mon- 5 miles Wed- 4.8 miles

Week 3 to date is 9.8 miles (5 Tuesday and 4.8 Wednesday)! I'm thinking I might want to readjust my goal to 75 miles this month.... I didn't realize how many miles I actually run! :)

I posted yesterday on the other board (wk 2) that I had ran 15 more miles, my month to date should be 34.6 miles! Thanks! :smile:

This week: Wed- 6 miles Thurs- 4.9 miles Fri- 5 miles Sun- 10 miles Total for the week: 25.9 miles

Is it too late to join? My goal is 50 miles, so far this month I've run 8.7 miles!

I like to do workouts from fitnessbender.com and youtube.com/zuzkalight

I have upped my carbs since I started running (I try to run abour 4.5 miles 3-4 days a week plus HIIT), I definitely feel better eating more carbs (making sure most come from veggies!).

You're not the only one, once I found out all the chemicals in a lot of "foods" I won't knowingly eat them. I am very conscious of labels and don't want to put chemicals in my body. I think you would really like the website foodbabe.com, it really opened my eyes to what is really in our food and how to change your…

I noticed that too when I got the DVD last year! I would always yell at her through the TV and tell her to get to work! Haha! I appreciated it, though :)

I made this recipe earlier this week, it is so good and packed with veggies! http://foodbabe.com/2011/06/14/careful-with-your-corn-non-gmo/ Also, when I make spaghetti instead of meat sauce I make veggie sauce. You can use any vegetables, but I usually use bells, onions, squash, tomato, and garlic. Saute then add in the…

I actually just started back into my workout routine after taking a week off, which killed me! I was overworking myself and was having major knee pains (I think from running), so right now I'm running a little bit (4 miles at a time) and doing bodyrock/ZWOWs. Are all the weeks of the challenge posted? I have such a hard…

I know I'm late, but here's my picture this week. I definitely have fat to lose, but my abs are poking through! :) Also, I don't own a scale and honestly don't care much about weight, so I'll try to remember to take some measurements and post them soon!

I agree to add in more lean meats (chicken, fish, etc) and less red meats. Also, you're not eating enough if you are logging everything. In general, you shouldn't net below 1200 (minimum), you should eat 15% below your TDEE. You can find out that number here: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/

I agree that you should check your form, just incase that is the problem, but typically when you have pain around your knee it's because your quad muscles are tight. I had the same problem and my friend (who is a certified trainer) told me since it was all around my knee it was most likely tight quads; she told me to get a…

Ugh! I'm in the same boat! And when I run a lot I swear they get bigger! :-/ I know there's no way to spot reduce, just lower body fat....

The same thing was happening to my mom, turns out she's lactose intolerant.

I highly recommend ohsheglows.com a fantastic vegan recipe blog. I'm not vegan, but I like to throw different kinds of meals in my weekly menu and I haven't tried a recipe on this blog that I don't like (even my meat loving husband likes these recipes). Angela (the blog writer) always mentions when her recipes are high in…

I set my goal for 1800 (TDEE is 2000), but it's definitely hard to eat all those calories with clean eating. My fat intake has been higher than I would like. I looked at the six pack factory website, but what exactly are you doing?

I have been (trying) to eat closer to my TDEE this week as well and I feel so fat! And oddly enough like I'm always hungry! I'm trying to stick to 40/30/30 (c/p/f), but I'm finding it hard to meet my protein goal. I'll post a picture this week if I'm feeling better, I'm also going to go back to more strength training days…

I do ZWOWs: youtube.com/zuzkalight Great, short, effective workouts!
