I love kettlebells, did them last year and throw them in now and again, I think I lost a lot doing using them. I found Art of Strength dvds to be great! http://www.artofstrength.com/ There is one other one that I use and its called extreme kettlebell, Keith Weber. both are really fun and good!

You can definitely see a difference in the two! Congrats and keep it up! Sharon, I have been using a adkins advantage protein shake (15g protein) with a banana in the blender. I have one a day, usually, unless I run out. I just bought some jillian natural whey protein, I thought in vanilla lol but now i see its triple…

Hi Blythe, Nice to have you join us! I got in a lot of protein today (yay me, finally) Now if only I could have eaten 300 more calories hehe I felt like I was going to puke while eating my yogurt! We eat dinner very early, so all my evening snacking is done before 8pm.. (just in case you looked at my diary) I got in a…

Hi Aneta, welcome! Brittney, great job on the accomplishments! Sharon, I do have the cheese, but my kids eat it all before I get to it, I have come to hide things from them hehe I tried making the turkey meatballs today, had them with some diced tomatoes. noticed the tomatoes had 2 gr of protein too. very tasty with the…

Good Job Cookie on your workouts! I did a nice brisk walk in the freezing cold this morning burned 384 calories doing 50 minutes of walking. Had to take a detour back into the house to get a hat! I really wish that spring would get here, and its only going to be in the 30's for another week :( I have been really trying to…

Thanks Brittney and Sharon, I'm going to try the turkey meatballs, as I do like turkey :) and I can handle the hard boil eggs, but I don't eat the yolks in them, they are sooo dry! I bought some bare naked granola and was putting that in my yogurt, to try to increase. I don't eat avocado or cottage cheese YUK!!!

Thanks Sharon, I do have a copy of it.. Guess I just have to eat more of it! I am at 130 and would like to be back down to my 120-123 and of course I am not moving anywhere. Was just telling my friends that I am so tired too. even after all the working out lol I will try getting more protein in, I guess it just feels like…

Hi Sharon, Would you want to take a look at my food diary, see if you can see if I'm doing something wrong? I never make it to my full calories. but I am eating almost every 2 hrs if not more lol. some of my dinners I didn't log, but I always eat pretty good. I don't fry anything, eat it grilled that sort of thing. Dinners…

Claudia.. That was it!!! Thank you! I just may try the others, Thanks Steven, and ZH

Congrats, you are looking so good! Keep up the good work!

Thanks Sharon, It was actually really nice here yesterday and today.. they are calling for snow by Thursday! My road is very hilly and from my house to the culdesac is 1/2 a mile so that helps! I do try to mix up the Turbo Fire, And I usually just stick with Fire 45, 45EZ, and 55EZ and the Hiits and throw in the core and…

Today, I was about to put in CE, but then I saw my neighbor taking a walk, So I threw on my shoes, heart rate monitor and flew out the door. She does the fast walking down my street, which is very hilly. We went for about 50 min and I burnt 316 cal and it got me outside and having a bit of adult conversation (which I seem…

Congrats! seems like you have something going right there! keep it up!

Good morning, Nice burn Sharon, and Cookie, I couldn't do the 12 hrs. When I worked at the hospital, they offered the 12 hrs, but I just couldn't do it. Hopefully everything went well! I am trying to get myself motivated for a good workout this morning. A bit over tired as I stayed up till 11 last night washing floors then…

Good job on the weightoss Cookie! I'm sure that it feels so good when you get to then next round of numbers. I myself can't get past the 130's not sure what I'm doing wrong.. But, I'm not going to give up! I did Turbo Fire 30 and BBL bum bum yesterday, Never had the chance to post anything as I had a few appointments that…

I would so like to get rid of my baby belly. I had three kids in three years. They are now 10, 9 and 8... so I didn't give my body much time for anything hehe. I now for me, my belly and my thighs are the things that I would like to look better. Sometimes, when I look down, I just want to cut it all off! But I am losing in…

I would say to find a work out program that will keep you motivated. Join one of the groups, I myself have been doing a mixture of turbo fire and chalean extreme. I like her style and her motivation. As for food, I know others have suggested michis ladder.. http://www.beachbody.com/category/michis_ladder.do it will help…

Hi all! Nice job on the cleanse Brittney! I did sculpt 30 today and Lean circuit 2 today, then finished some cleaning that I started! I am going to cheat tonight and either have my mikes hard lemonade light (98) or a small bowl of ice cream :D I feel you can't deny or you'll just over load one day! Hope everyone has a good…

Hi all, Got done with a busy workout morning! Didn't mean to make it so long, Did TF 45 class today and then borrowed BBL from my sister, just tried the tummy tuck then thought, hm wonder what the high and tight was all about... 110 min and 735 calories burned ;) Not sure If I like the BBL..

Hi all, Did Lean phase one today, then cleaned the basement to continue burning the calories! But I was bad tonight and ate a bit to my pasta with an extra half piece of garlic bread.. I feel so stuffed right now . I think that is the most that I have eaten in a long while, but with it being ash wed. I should have been…

Good morning, Did turbo fire 45 today burned 500 cals. Good luck with your cleans Britney congrats on the quitting smoking jrr, I quite 13 years ago and it was the best thing I could have done for myself. I rewarded myself after with a dentist teeth whitening, (where you get the trays, not the zoom stuff) If I could do it…

good for you to keep it up.. it is the little steps, and if you give it what you can, the next day make your goal 5 min more or pushing a bit harder. I would say the same thing to myself, I can do this 5 more min. just believe in yourself!! keep going!!

I got in fire 30 and abs 10 today, going to do a bit more tomorrow since it's almost like a day of no work for me. fire 45 is in store and I'll add in something else lol Hope everyone had a good weekend!

What a great job for both of you, and its nice when your partner is on the same page with you.. you are on your way to a wonderful life together as husband and wife, and you will look smoking hot in your wedding dress! Best of luck to both of you on your continued journey!
