ok did 45 min Firm Kettle Bell workout and 15 min. runners yoga

Good morning ladies, Ok feel of the wagon on my eating the last few days, so with a quick swift kick in the butt i'm trying to get back on track today. Headed into the exercise room now to get a video done. Hey anyone got the boston marathon set to tape, I do, I love to watch it and think humm maybe someday. hehe well ok…

Ok looks like we all had some nice weather today, I did a 10 mile bike ride this morning. It felt great to be outside but it was very windy. Spent the rest of the day doing some spring cleaning and housework. Supposed to be 77 here tomorrow, Yard work coming up.

I lost 60 lbs about 10 years ago doing weight watchers. But slowly but surely I gained 30 of that back. I was tired all the time, no energy and grouchy as hell. :) So about a year ago I got ahold of a clean eating cookbook and figured I'd give clean eating a try. Well I lost the 30 lbs, and am smaller Inch wise than I was…

it was a rainy dreary day here today, this moring did Firm maximum Body Shaping and threw on the rain jacket and ran one mile. Have had a sinus headache all day, headed to bed.

sounds like everyone is having a great day. Rest day for me

good evening ladies, this morning I did a 40 min strength dvd and 15 min. yoga and just came in from a .5 run. Didn't even seem worth getting running clothes on but that .5 felt awesome. Yep spring is here. It was 82 degrees today, but gosh this wind sure could die down. So sorry I never have time for shout outs, but I…

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't checked in all weekend. I volunteered at the marathon sat. and it was an awesome experience. We had mile 12 for the half marathon and mile 25 for the full marathon. Seeing all of those runners struggling and pushing thru to make that last mile was just awesome. They were all so stong and…

Hi ladies, it has been a very busy week. Just got time for a quick check in.. Just got back from a 8 mile bike ride. Gonna try to get some strength work in tomorrow.

Good morning everyone. Got up this morning and did firm cardio sculpt. Knew I would t have to r later. I'm volunteering at a water stop for the marathon that I'm not able to do sat. Figured at least if get to see my running buddies go by. Thanks for the well wishes on my leg. This injury is taking along time to heal but I…

Hi everyone, my gosh looks like everyone is off to an awesome monday. I had to wait for about an hour this afternoon for my daughter so headed to the park and put my running shoes on to walk alittle. Well I couldn't help myself, I just had to see how my leg would do if I tried to run. Well :( didn't make it far before I…

great job on getting your workout done. and just the name of that workout sounds brutal. I did step aerobics this morning, cathe- abs and 15 min express yoga. It's a pretty day here in Ky also. Gonna work in the flower beds for awile. Hope everyone has a great Easter

Great job to all of you who are taking the leap and trying running. I did the c25k 6 years ago and have been hooked every since. My advice is to take it nice and slow. It's not about speed at this point at all. Let your body adjust to running and once it becomes a part of you then you can try to increase your speed. If you…

Hi everyone, sorry for such a late check-in. Got up this morning and did Firm Supercharged Sculpting and then did a 10 mile bike ride this afternoon. It was so pretty out. It is so hard to eat healthy on the holidays, Hopefully everyone will get back on track on monday. My daughter has to work sunday, so hubby and I are…

Hi everyone, taking a rest day today. Havent set any goals for april yet, taking it day by day right now until leg heals enough to get back to running. Planning on a bike ride tomorrow, its supposed to be 60 degrees and sunshine.

So glad your knees are feeling better, I did 50 min. (8 miles) on the dreaded stationary bike this morning. I am a morning exerciser as well. I just hate stressing about it all day, thinking I've got to exercise when I get off work. Don't get me wrong, sometimes its so hard getting up, but always have a better day once I'm…

Hi everyone, checking in with Firm #5 done.

shaving 90 seconds of my mile pace when I got to my goal weight. That was better than any number on the scale. also being able to wear a nightshirt instead of pajamas. Legs no longer rub together.:laugh:

Sounds like everyone has had a great workout today, easy day for me, just some body electric which is just some muscle work with light weights.

Hi, my name is Sheila I am 46 years old, married with ond daughter who is 19 and I live in Robards, Ky. I am a runner, side lined with an injury since Jan. I am currently aqua jogging, doing ellipical and biking. I have struggled with my weight for years, losing and always gaining it back. Last Feb (2012) I started a clean…

Baby steps will get you there, on the days when I don't feel motivated I always say just do 10 min. and then if you still don't feel it you can stop, 9 times out of 10 I am fine once I get started.

Baby steps will get you there. Just take it slow and steady and it will work and the weight will come off

add me i have been maintaining my weight for about 6 months maybe more

I have been eating chia seeds now daily for almost a year. I love them, They fill me up and I really think they have helped me maintain my weight loss. I usually add 2 tablespoons a day to my oatmeal or protein shake for breakfast. I also add them to my protein peanut butter balls and cookies and muffins. Another thing I…

feel free to add me, i'm a runner, although currently on the injured list. Would love to be on a running thread with fellow runners

I am also struggling with IT band and quad issues.. Have been limping for over 3 weeks. I am able to ride my bike trainer and I have been aqua jogging. Do you have access to an illiptical machine, is this an option for you? I haven't bee able to run in over a month and I am going stir crazy.

well it probably wasnt a pretty sight, but got it done.

I also like the accountabiliy, and sometimes when I get in a rut, maybe someone can see something that I can tweak and get me back on the right tracak again

I will rest for sure, I have been in hard training since june of last year. And we just found out we made it in for the bourbon chase (a 200 mile relay) again this year. Awesome. So I have to get healed up 100% and be ready to start training again in June. gonna just coast thru the month on january.

I make this all the time one cup lentils (no need to soak) one cup brown rice (uncooked) one can rotel diced tomatoes with chilis one or two cans mixed veg. 2 cans chicken broth salt and pepper throw it all in a 9 x 13 cake pan, cover with foil. Bake in the oven at 350 for 1.5 hours. I divide this out into one cup servings…
