If you want a quick chuckle, go to the link to read the conversation that went along with this image: https://instagram.com/p/3Cm_W6BB8v/?taken-by=satiarenee Morning Workout I have bad vertigo days every now and again. I never know when they will occur and today is a bad day. I also occasionally have bad osteoarthritis…

PS So my husband just woke up and told me that he ordered two more programs last night: T25 and 21 Day Fix Extreme I know he ordered both of these for me because he's not interested in doing anything but P90 at this time. He's playing it off a bit, though, saying that he might give them a try "later" by which he means…

Not Feeling It Today I'm having one of those "phone it in" kinda mornings. That doesn't mean I wasn't sweating or going deep in my squats. I just wasn't present with the exercise, if you know what I mean. Morning Workout 21 Day Fix R4/W1/D6 Nothing new. Still can't do the Renegade Rows in full plank. Still have to use…

Foods you should be eating? Follow a healthy, balanced diabetic diet. You do not want to eat too much protein (although it helps build muscle, it puts undue stress on your kidneys) so just focus on keeping your diet balanced. As for getting toned, my husband (latent adult onset Type 1) is currently doing P90 which is a mix…

Two Heads Are Better Than One Aha! My darling husband called my equally darling son and together they figured out how to backup my laptop. My son did say that the process using our cloud is a bit weird but he'll show me the steps when my laptop returns to me. We'll send it off this morning. *whimper* Morning Workout 21DF:…

Morning Workout 21DF: R4/D4 Does anyone else find elbow planks significantly more difficult than full planks? I don't know why I am still struggling so much with planks. I just am. It was a good workout nonetheless. PiYo Buns About halfway through I was thinking, "I might get all the way through this one today." About 2/3…

Everyone My laptop is being sent back to Dell for repairs. I'm on my old laptop which is very slow and funky. I won't be online as much simply because I prefer to avoid frustration and using this laptop results in nothing but frustration. However, I'll check in daily because I'll still be pushing play. Please forgive me if…

Double check MFP info. The other day I created a recipe that supposedly had 20K calories in half a serving! Ends up, MFP said that 1 medium banana had 10K calories. I've seen other foods that were a mess as well.

@doodlebug32 From personal experience, you can absolutely get a solid workout using no weights. Just focus on the muscle groups you're working. For instance, in the sumo squats with the shoulder lift, you just want to bring the elbows high enough and back a bit so you really feel the move in your shoulders. It's amazing…

@mrsewert I have been eying T25. I pretty much look for anything that has someone modifying the moves. I have a list of future workout programs gradually building over time. LOL!

@mrsewert Yes and no. At first, no. It takes a few rounds of each workout to get to where you know what Chalene means when she says step back into a lunge. (Sometimes, you step back and hold; other times, you step back and tap up.) So at first, I admit I felt a little lost but about two weeks ago I realized that I was…

@dkwi04 Yes it is the same top and yes, yesterday I was noticing it is a bit loose on me. Even when I sit down. And I don't typically wear loose tank tops. So--aha! Those 2+ inches in my waist are showing. About halfway through the day I was thinking about how people always complain how they lose weight in their breasts…

@dkwi04 Don't be jealous of my morning. I wish I had a job so I didn't have so much free time. Believe me. A steady income would be a lot more fun than spending most of my day trying to find a job. I'm glad your husband liked the recipe. It was definitely a winner for me and mine. :)

Okay. I hope that these pics won't discourage anyone. Here goes. Day 1 of Round 3 And after Round 3 (aka Day 1 of Round 4) Looks like MFP is doing the pic flip thing again. Sorry. I wish I knew how to fix that but everything I've tried hasn't worked. :s

Congratulations @dford5 Your results are great!

One of the things I think the 3 Day Quick Fix does so well is it establishes a foundation for the program. Rather than try to use all of the containers, you're only using a few. It also helps you see clearly how often you should be eating on this program. I can't imagine trying to eat all of my containers if I were limited…

@walkdmc Contact beachbody. You'd be amazed with the quality of their customer service! @dkwi04 Sounds like you had a good weekend and under the circumstances, I'd have probably done the same thing. Morning Workout Total Body Cardio Fix I learned my lesson last week and not feeling very energetic, I decided to use 5 lbs…

Day 3, Round 3 Total loss: 1.8 If not for the 3 Day Quick Fix, I would have ended this round having gained weight this round. Glad I did it but I don't feel that's the best way to see overall success on this program and I am understandably disappointed.

Round 3 Results Total lbs lost = 0.2 Total inches lost = 2.25 The inches all came from my waist. I've gained in one thigh and didn't lose anywhere else. For the record, I'm bottom heavy so gaining inches two rounds in a row in one of my problem areas is not exactly thrilling. But I tied on a dress yesterday that I have…

Morning Workout Because my laptop was being stupid, I had to move my workout into the living. I had to keep the volume down so I wouldn't wake up my husband. PiYo Sweat Yeah. I was. Ugh. Yoga Fix Yay yoga. My body needed it. Round 3 Ended Today I'll be taking my measurements tomorrow morning and take more pics. I don't…

Day 2 Round 3 Lost another 0.4 lb. Total loss: 1.4 lbs Still weigh more than when I started Round 3. Tomorrow I take full measurements including before/after pics so we'll see how things go.

I have tried but I don't find the site especially user friendly. It often takes more than one attempt just to log into the site and then navigation is just clunky. It's like the site was designed over 20 years ago and nobody has updated it at all. For instance, you can auto-schedule a complete workout program, an obvious…

@cindip63 The rest of the day, Holly was okay. Maybe there was a memo that went out to all the puppies to throw up. @dixiewhiskey I watched the DVDs for Phase 1 of Jillian Michaels' Body Revolution and I may be in over my head but I won't surrender until I have at least tried. And I have eight more weeks before I start it…

What the hell was I thinking? Not one of my better mornings. Holly got sick halfway through Dirty 30. I missed a couple reps on the chest flies but my arms were still sore from yesterday's Upper Fix so I don't feel too badly about that. Then I debated doing PiYo. I've been doing them back-to-back but Holly's being sick…

Day 1 Round 3 Lost 1 lb. Still above where I started this round but I will probably lose enough by the end of the 3 days to say I lost weight. I am more interested in seeing if I've lost inches this time around (since my last round I gained inches in my thighs and lost nothing in my waist).

@mrsewert I can't believe I almost missed your success! Those are amazing results.

You guys are awesome. We have another appointment on Tuesday so I get to stay stressed for four more days. Oh boy! If nothing else, at least I can use exercise to keep myself distracted. It works. Now if only I could get angry too so I could get some housework done. LOL! @dkwi04 I am curious about 21DFX so I'm definitely…

I'm going on vacation at the beginning of July and was planning to start as soon as I return. I hope someone's planning to start sooner because I know how great it is to have others exercising along with you. I'm currently doing 21 Day Fix and PiYo and plan on doing Slim in 6 in June and through my vacation. (Can you tell…

@Lauracharder Brilliant results! You must feel wonderful. Are you going to do a second round?

Day 1 Round 3 Okay. Let's face it. If I didn't do the 3DQF this round, I'd have gained weight. I don't know if I've lost inches. It's possible. But I know I've gained weight. Anyway, thank you @dkwi04 for sharing the tip that we could add one whole egg to the egg whites. I did that this morning and it made a lot of…
