I feel like I have lost the "weight" but don't look thin or anything. There is nothing toned about my body at all. granted I have had 3 kids and have never been in great shape, but I have seen people with kids looking great and I guess my ultimate goal is to actually look toned, fit, and firm!! Do I just keep working out…

I just finished Insanity last Sunday and took measurements and it was only fractions of an inch all over. So I really don't know if that even counts since you never really know if you are measuring EXACTLY the same every time....

I am having the WORST problen with this at work. I do really good at home because my husband is very supportive but when I go to work there is always something there. People wamting to order take out and giving me grief when I don't want it. People bringing in snacks and saying things like "just have a little bit" "one…

I hear ya! We seem to have the same thing for dinner all the time and it's really hard. i work nights so I'm usually running out the door right after dinner time and it would be really nice to get some new recipes that are quick, easy, yummy, and that the whole family would enjoy!!

Thought about the Asylum but my knee needs a little break...has really been giving me trouble! If you want to buy any BeachBody Products, just go to beachbody.com, they are all on there! INSANITY nd P90X are both beachbody! Thanks for the suggestions guys...I may just try a Jillian DVD for a while since it's only a month…

I could use some tips too! Seems like after all the kids are in bed, I start in on all the snacking!!!!! AHHHHHH!

What are some results everyone is seeing- I bought the program a while back and still haven't done it. I'm almost done with INSANITY and want to start either P90X or ChaLEAN Extreme......

Those are great ideas with the chocolate!

I am having cravings BAD this month- it sucks!!!!! As for the weight gain- I just don't weigh in around that time!!! It just gets me down and makes me want to give up or eat bad.

Celebrate all your hard work because you earned it! I am also so sick of people being jealous maybe??? Saying things like 'why are you even working out, you don't need to lose anymore weight', or don't you ever eat???? It's just crazy to me- if I want to be fit there's nothing wrong with that and just because I'm not…

Just made some mozarella sticks tonight with dinner from the Hungry Girl website and they were YUMMY!! 145 cals for 4 small cheese sticks!

Thanks! I'll be looking the next time I'm there!

Thanks for the advice....do you think I should up my calories again?? It seems like since I did that, I've been gaining and it has been several weeks. I am not doing any weight training right now but planned on doing P90X after INSANITY. If I did truly hit my ideak body weight that would be fine by me, I just don't want to…

Same thing here....very frustruating!!!

Such a pain- We make 4 servings. So we premeasure out 4 servings. Then when it is done, weigh it again and divide by 4 (or however many servings you made)!

Thanks everyone- some really great ideas to try out!!

I think thoughts about all of this have pretty much taken over my life too!!! It's a crazy feeling because I never used to think about it except to say....uuuuughghhg, I'm too heavy!!! Now all I think about is eating and working out which is ok by me, I just hope I'm not driving everyone else around me CRAZY!

Mine never wanted to heal either. Had it done 2 seperate times and now after having 3 kids I have a nasty scar there. The hole where it used to be almost seems just like loose skin hanging there and I would never do it again. Wish I had never had it done!

I started out with TurboFire and lost quite a bit of weight with that. I am starting the 2nd month of INSANITY today. With INSANITY (so far) I haven't lost weight, I just feel like I am toning up. Hopefully I will lose more this month, but I really like TF!!!

Really liked it but could only wear it for about 2 weeks...the metal made may skin have a reaction!!! Now what to do with that thing since I spent a pretty penny on it?! :sick:

I've had three kiddos and I gained 60, 50, and then 45-50!! Oops! With the first I was pretty young and it just came off on its own. The other 2 I had to count calories and exercise my butt off! Eventually it does come off but I'm still here! And if anyone has any insight about the mom pooch or extra skin around the…

Hey there- Nursery RN here and work straight nights, full time 12 hour shifts....so hard to keep away from the food at 2-5am......what do you do as far as food goes overnight??

great job! that's a really big change in just 30 days!!! What's the P90X 'LEAN'?

I tried it and I really like it.... I started with the 9 week prep schedule because I had just had a baby and hadn't worked out in a long time!! I lost close to 30 lbs. It really does work. Nice that the workouts are all different and some days are work with resistance bands, and there's even a day of stretching! I then…

Sounds like a great plan! Weekends are especially hard for me because I work nights all weekend and many times people want to order food...and it's not good food either!! Also makes getting time in for a workout very hard. I'll join you on your challenge! Let's " NOT" be pigs together!!!

I try not yo have entire days that I cheat or just eat whatever I want. I never plan to eat bad for the day. But if there is a birthday party or something like that I will plan of having a piece of cake or a slice of pizza at the party and I know that's ok. And sometimes I do slip up and ruin my day altogether. But I don't…

Maybe you should start logging everything you eat- you might be surprised at the numbers you get. that could also give you an idea of where you can improve. Maybe you aren't eating enough...

Me too! I asked the same thing a few weeks ago and this is what I was told: Increase my calories. I have slowly increased calories from 1250/day to 1500/day for a 1/2 lb weight loss per week. Then they told me to wait it out a few weeks to allow my body to adjust. That is killing me!! FINALLY this week the scale moved DOWN…

Great job! Keep up the hard work! It is always so motivating to see these pics and know that, yes, it CAN be done!!! Congrats!
