  • The same thing happened to me too. I stayed at the same weight for about two weeks. Then all of a sudden I dropped a couple pounds. Just keep doing what you're doing and I'm sure you'll meet your goal!
  • My husband and I used to work out together but now that I've stopped, he's stopped too. So there goes my motivational support. I'm looking for new shoes, but honestly, I don't have a lot of money to spend on shoes. I have very low arches so I know if I got the kind of shoes I need, I would end up spending a lot. If skate…
  • Sure thing! I went to Walmart thinking they might have something, so I wouldn't have to order them online. Believe it or not, they don't have anything. They have foot wraps and that's about it.
  • I do the same thing, not to Britney Spears, but to my music. I turn it up, put my head phones on and just dance around. I live in Illinois and I swear it's one of the most boring states there is. It's been so gloomy lately and I especially hate the winter time. I really can't imagine it being any better in London though.…
  • Thanks everyone! I am looking into getting those wraps and see if they will help. Also, I think I might be a little depressed due to the weather. I know I really want to lose this weight and it's something I'm striving for. I really just need to take a look at my goals and make sure they are realistic. I also think having…
  • What stretches do you recommend? I know Jillian doesn't really do too many stretches that will help with these shin splints. I'm wondering if it might be my shoes too because I have those curves for women that are supposed to help tone and I think they might be a little much for a beginner like me.
  • I am just now starting Level 2! I have lost 7lbs this first week and a half. On a side note: I have been getting some really bad shin splints and I am not really sure what to do about it. So if anyone has any advice on how to prevent/cure them that would be great. I don't want to stop working out and I really don't want to…
  • I agree with everyone else. Dump him. Why wouldn't he like the new you?
  • Is getting shin splints normal when working out? I have been getting them when I do my cardio workouts. I do jumping jacks, running in place and some jump rope too. I want to know a way to prevent that from happening because I really like working out.
  • I exercise when my son is sleeping. Otherwise if for some reason he's awake, I will set him in his playpen and he watches me. It makes it a little more fun that way for both of us, and makes the workout go by quicker. Preparing food isn't a big deal either, since I have been making food for myself the whole time. So I'm…
  • Thanks everyone! I at least have a better idea of a healthy time frame for losing the weight. I think for now, I am going to keep concentrating on eating healthier. I've cut out fast food, sweets, and I've cut back on pop. I only drink one can a day, I know I should switch to diet, or no pop at all, but I like it too much…
  • What do you think would be a healthy amount of time to lose the 60lbs?
  • I just want to lose it before summer. I at least want to look decent in a swimsuit.
