I set mini goals for myself: "I'm going to sprint to that tree. Oh, hell, I made it this far, I'll go to the next one" "I'm going to make it through the whole set of mountain climbers this time" "I'll do 10 regular push-ups, then if I need to I'll go to my knees"

Always liked him and was sad to see injuries bring him down at the end of his career. I'll never forget when the Bombers fans gave him a standing ovation, even though he was wearing a Lion's jersey. Go Lions!

Had to miss my w/o this morning since I had to take the dog out for hubby, so I ended up going for a run instead. Not sure if I will make it up, or just finish with 9 days of level 3. We'll see how the weekend goes.

Nutritionally, I can't answer, but I find the whole grain ones tend to be more brittle and crack more when preparing. For that reason, I use the whole wheat ones.

Easiest meal plan: Portion control. If dinner tonight is junk food, read the package to see what a serving size is. Stick to it. If you're still hungry, go get some baby carrots, cucumber, salad in a bag. All things with little to no prep time. Start with simple exercise. Get up 10 minutes early and do 15 squats, 15…

I just want to stop in and thank you all for coming with me on my run this morning. Instead of my usual "that's good enough" "better than sleeping in, so I can quit now" mantras, I was visualizing your awesome photos and thinking of your inspirational quotes. You all are amazing!

Holy hell you're looking great, and have some beauty ink too! Well done!

I cut up a whole wheat tortilla shell and bake in the oven at 315 degrees for about 8 minutes until crispy.

When refusing the offer of crap food in the office... "I miss the old you, when you used to enjoy this stuff with us." and the constant, "oh come on, just eat it." "you can have one" When I refuse, "you're no fun" or "you're too good for my chocolate bar?" "You don't need to lose weight, you're the skinniest girl in the…

Take half a bag of spinach and toss it in a frying pan on medium heat. Let it shrivel into really small pieces. You can then add this to spaghetti sauce, salsa, put onto a burger or sandwich and hardly notice it.

I mix mine with natural peanut butter and honey. 1/2 cup peanut butter 1/3 cup honey Mix with all the nuts/seeds, then put in fridge for min 30 mins before shaping. Keep them in the fridge, or the peanut butter will separate

Yay! I'm right behind you. What are you going to do when you're finished? I ordered a JM bundle which included Ripped in 30, No More Trouble Zones, and Blast Fat, Boost Metabolism. I read a lot of good reviews on NMTZ, so I think I will do this. Longer workout, but only 3 days a week.

Level 3- Day 2 this morning. Abs, glutes and shoulders are feeling it.

First of all, I'm sorry about the break up, even when they are for the best, it's never easy. Getting enough sleep is just as important as getting to the gym. It sounds like you're on the right track in terms of evaluating your time management, but please don't sacrifice sleep. Maybe you're a better candidate for a 20…

Mine is a bit silly... Husband and I walk the dog every evening, and often when we turn the last corner onto our street, I'll take the dog off leash and we'll race to the end of the block where our house is. Dog always wins, but last night, I kept good pace and I wasn't completely winded when I got inside.

Here are some things I've tried to curb late night binging: 1- brush your teeth right after dinner 2- keep your hands busy doing a craft, puzzle or game 3-drink a glass of water, wait 20 minutes, if you still want a snack, have something small 4-keep healthy snacks readily available. Keep anything less healthy somewhere…

It's not quite the same texture as cheesecake, but it tastes phenomenal. I usually put some strawberries and blueberries in a saucepan and heat them up to make a 'syrup' and pour on top. So good!

@Mrs Canmore I would suggest GSP's Rushfit. It's a 3 month program, with several DVDs. You follow a calendar, using the various workouts, with different schedules for beginner- advanced. If you follow the beginner/intermediate calendar, most days are 20-30 mins. It also includes free cardio days, where you do typically 45…

As long as it's not a full length mirror. Waist up- hell yes, I'm happy.... take a step back, and well, at least I can reach the light switch.

I have this awesome little sweater dress. I thought it looked ok in the store, brought it home and said, "dear Lord, no. I can not go out in public in this." The day I can put it on and actually walk out the door will be a huge win.

I keep losing the same 10 pounds over and over again. I know the struggle and frustration of it all. So what's different this time? Sustainable changes. Super restrictive diets are not long term. Smaller portion sizes and smart eating are. Don't deny yourself treats and rest days, but don't make them the norm anymore.…

Level 3 - 30 day shred was awesome! Super tough, but the time just flew, I couldn't believe it, I actually thought "Holy crap, she's doing the cool down already!"
