Hello ladies. I'm still trudging along here, mostly being lazy. I had the worst dream and I remembered it. Let me give you some background info first: Next month we are traveling up to the U.P. (Upper Peninsula) of Michigan for a reunion getaway for my husband's immediate family (He is #6 of 8) and all the nephews and…

Bump!

Congrats! I'm hoping for the same news at the end of this month!

A red 1980 Datsun 200SX that my parents bought used for me in 1986. That's the year I learned who my real friends were.

I really fell off the wagon this week as far as exercise goes. I've been eating crappy and feeling crappy afterwards. I was supposed to start week 2 and did not do a thing. I even dressed to work out where all I had to do was press play and I found myself taking a nap instead. I haven't been drinking much water either. I…

You are amazing! You have come really far. You are truly inspirational.

Proud home of the Bears, the Cubs, the White Sox and the Blackhawks! USA~IL~Chi-town~burbs

Incredible progress! Love your 2nd set of pics. I can really see the difference on your side views. Great work!

Hello ladies, It's been awhile since I've been on here. I was in a 2 month slump. I exercised regularly up to week 14 and my week 14 became a 5 week thing and it took me almost 3 weeks to get to week 16...the bad habits came back of eating like crap and my small clothes were feeling really snug again. Anyway, I restarted…

bumpity bump bump.

Vini~I'd love to do Body Beast...I just don't have enough hand weights. My heaviest hand weight is only 15 lbs. I do have bands. IDK if the band color is universal...I have yellow, green, red and blue. The only thing I don't like about Body Beast is the lack of a warm up and cool down (2-3 min is just not enough). I didn't…

I'm 5'1" and my GW is a Lean 127.

My annual physical is in June and this is my 1st time that I'm actually looking forward to going. In the past, my doc used to scold me and I'd leave in tears....not this time. I believe my results will be different.

Chi-town 'burbs!

Thanks so much for the tip!

Sorry I'm just getting back to you all now. Thanks so much for all your replies. We are definitely leaning toward the Vitamix. I appreciate all your input!

My doctor's office screwed up my appt today when they changed over their computer system so I am rescheduled for next week. I noticed I do much better eating-wise when I'm home and the hubster has the car then I'm not tempted to stop anywhere for bad foods then I eat all the clean healthy foods I have at home. Score for…

Hi, I am still here and frustrated with the scale as well. As some of you know, I've been redoing week 14 for many weeks. I still have not completed a whole week. So, today I said "screw it" and I moved myself to week 16 (recovery week). I just pressed play on 45EZ and Stretch 10. How I missed that workout (45ez). So much…

Hello ladies, Just checking it...it's been a really bad week eating-wise and exercise-wise as well. I haven't pushed play since last Monday and lately I just haven't been wanting to either. I have been redoing week 14 for the last month or so and I am debating on starting over Week 1 on Monday. I hope to get P90X back from…

Love your story. It's so encouraging and uplifting. Thanks for sharing!

What a great accomplishment with the Prep program. Congratulations! You look great!

5'1" here...looking for fellow shorties with open diaries and preferably in their 40's (no offense to the 30's and below). If you do add me, just let me know which message board you saw me on. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your story and your pictures. This is so inspiring because, I, too am a shorty at 5'1". I've only lost 9 lbs but a heck of a lot of inches. My goal is to be a lean 127. Congrats on your success!

True. I've never eaten a live octopus.

Welcome! Congrats on finishing P90X. I only got through 7 weeks of it last year then lost all motivation. I'm currently doing the advanced program of TF. I'm in Week 14. I love the music and Chalene is so motivating. This is the 1st time where I actually "want" to workout and enjoy my time doing it. I haven't lost much…

Hello ladies! Check out my new profile pic. Those are my kiddos who will be 8 later this month. I have another picture that we do every year since they were 4 years old...both kids on my side kissing my cheek. I'm going to keep that as a tradition even when they get older. I posted that pic and a couple others of me and…

Sorry I haven't been around...my kids had spring break this week and my logging has been haphazard and plus my cousin just passed away. This is the 2nd death in my family in 3 months. I'll write more again next week. Have a happy easter everyone! My pressing "play" has been sporadic as well. I'm in Week 14 right now and…

I'm doing Turbo Fire right now which I love! Insanity is great too (uses your own body weight for resistance). Good luck in finding the one that works for you!
