Just an FYI. There are a boatload of JM VIDS on YouTube!

Looks friendly to me

I had a tummy tuck and lipo on hips 8 days ago! I had to save a long time - and it was expensive. Here is my story so far... First off, I am 50 yrs young! In excellent health and finally at my ideal weight. I have been around my ideal weight for about 3 years (fluctuating occasionally -ESP after vacations!). I have had 2…

Thanks to all who responded. Weight really shouldn't be the issue. I am doing the jillian michaels ripped in 30 vid ... I just finished her shred video and its pretty similar in most of the moves and the weights I'm using are only 5#. Same as I used on shred. Maybe her warmup wasn't enough for my quads. My legs are usually…

Definitely STOP weighing every day!! Once a week at most....and weigh in the am. Your weight can fluctuate a lot daily just over a bowel movement or lack thereof! So stop! Also. You are not eating enough! I was eating at 1000 cals and exercising daly and not losing a pound! I brought my cals up to 1200 AND eat back all my…

Thanks for the reply Chris. I don't do well with rest. Ugh. Tink I can continue to workout if I avoid moves that involve quads? I'm just not sure why suddenly the quad pain. I am doing nothing new. Same ol stuff. Warming up and all. Oh well. I haven't tried anything yet...just happened today so I will do the ice,…

Finished day 23 today - I haven't missed a single day (which I'm very proud of!). I'm still long level 2.. Thinking of staying with L2 til day 25. Then doing my last 5 days at L3. I did take befores. But am not gonna measure til I'm done! 7 more days Considering trying P90x after the shred is behind me! Cindy

50 in a couple of weeks. I am in the beginning to middle of my own personal fitness challenge. Lost 40 pounds in the last 2 years....on my last 3-4 pounds and am now determined to be as fit as I possibly can! Please feel free to friend me!!!!

Jealous. If I look at a poptart my *kitten* gets bigger

Btw. Ignore the jerk. He obviously has issues

I read that thread and was discouraged as well. I have a slight "skinny fat" problem as well. With clothes on - all looks well. But I do tend to carry excess belly fat. Funny thing is...under that belly fat I have abs of steel! Lol. I have read a lot about the belly fat issue and know that it's often caused by an excess of…

Do not cut back tomorrow! It's no big deal. Just move forward. We all have these days! Seriously!

Well herein possibly lies my problem. I really don't have much left to lose. Abt 5 lbs. but I am stalled. I am set at 1200 and rarely meet that calorie goal. I exercise hard 6 days a week. Cardio and strength. I do not eat back my calories burned so I am way under when you subtract out my exercise. Should I bump up my…

I'm going straight thru 30 days. Good Lord willing! I have hit a plateau and have my 50th birthday coming next month so I am determined to get it done! Hoping for great results. If I can get thru this I am considering trying P90x next.

It's 20 mins Hun! Just do it. You'll be glad you did!!!!

I don't skip any but the push-ups are really hard for me. I do as many as I can for as long as I can. The first day I did maybe 5. Today I did 12-15 each set. So getting better! The first day I was exhausted and sweaty and thought I'd die. Today was day 5 and much much much better!

Day one under my belt and yes....it kicked my butt! But I am motivated and ready for day 2!!!!! I measured and took pics too!

Me too. Mine too!

Hi, Im Cindy from Destin, Florida! I will be 50! ugh next month and am determined to be fit and healthy by then. I lost almost 50 pounds a little over 2 years ago and found my weight inching upward in the last year. I started back on diet and exercise in October - sorta - lol, but have been motivated and on track since Jan…
