  • I did Day 2 this morning. I noticed a difference in the difficulty immediately. But I pushed my body through the strength poses. I think the flexibility poses are my biggest weaknesses but hopefully those will improve over the 30 days. I am blessed not to have a mental block on strength poses and Adrienne really put it…
  • Johnny Mac grew on me. I thought he was weird at first and kinda reminded me of a weird guy I know... But now I think he is hilarious and I love listening to his little rants. I love Steve though! I like the dorky nerdy sort who lay low and play it safe. I hate all the two faced ness from the sixth sense alliance. But I…
  • This is exactly what I need. Whenever I sabotage myself, it's doing this. So I'll join and make my goal no caloric intake after 8PM and hopefully no more than LNS:5.
  • I just did Day 1. It was a nice balance of basic moves plus some difficult strength training and lots of relaxing and mindful breathing. I can't wait for Day 2.
  • Hi, my name is Jessi. I'm going to be a senior at NWMSU and I love Yoga with Adrienne. I have done her morning yoga routine dozens of times and I love it. I saw she was posting 30 days of yoga and I wanted to start it but never got around to it. So this will be the perfect time.

  • Whew! Moving is stressful and tiring! But after a handful of days of working out, I am building a routine I can do in college. I love how good I feel afterwards. I feel blessed that working out hasn't been a terrible experience for me. The idea always seemed so sucky, but once I started, I learned to love it and I can't…
  • Hey ladies! Lots has been going on this past weekend. I moved into an apartment in Missouri yesterday. The packing and last minute work kept me so busy. Today was just a day to relax, but after three days of not watching what I ate plus no time to work out, I knew I needed to get something done today. I ended up starting…
  • Same, spent all summer working it off, about to start school again trying not to make the same mistakes a third time around
  • Fruit is the sweet stuff I eat! Also protein bars, watch out for ones that are high in sugar, but good ones do exist. Check out my food diary, see if you find anything that peaks your interest, PM with questions
  • Well we sure try to be supportive of each other! I'm trying to lose body fat and build muscle
  • I love how much protein they have, especially for how reasonable their calories and sugars are. I'm not one who pays attention to the ingredients list, but I know there are some words on there I can't pronounce. I made a spread sheet that calculates the best bars if you want the most protein for least amount of calories. I…
  • I have been eating two Quest protein bars with about three glasses of water between six and seven in the evening. I always feel like I could eat two or three more but half an hour to an hour later I start feeling full and so I have just made it a habit to save my protein bars for my dinner because they are so filling and…
  • Anyone I'm not yet friends with can add me:) I can't say I'm inspiring or motivational but I have an open diary and I'm honest about logging everything if you're curious how I do it. I can be a friend too if you just need an ear or got a question
  • I got on the bike for the first time this week! It felt so good, and seemed to go by. I'm on my third TV series to watch while working out. "Alias" that old Jennifer Garner show is going to have to last me til I head to college. Yikes! That is coming up soon and I got so much to do!
  • I got on the bike for the first time in what seems like forever! It felt good:) Ha how are all of you guys doing? Good I hope! I just feel so good doing some cardio especially it has been really stressful getting ready for school and it feels like my mom just keeps piling on to my to-do list. Ugh, can't wait to get out of…
  • @Canadian 29, single, teacher (because you remind me of my dance coach from high school)
  • Today is arms day! (Also, make up for not finishing abs and butt day. I could also stand to catch up on cardio. But gotta get today's workout done first, then work backward from there.) I haven't been hitting my target goals of how long to work out. I'm working out about half as much as I have allotted each day. Ugh, I…
  • ^^ agree with above post. Every little bit helps. Just be aware of what you are eating and how much time you spend doing something when you could be getting a little bit of exercise in.
  • That does sound tiring... I never had such long days as that, but working out doesn't have to be more than twenty minutes a day. Just have to get your heart rate up. I would try to squeeze in twenty minutes as many days a week as you can. Power through the exhaustion, you will feel so much better after your workout, even…
  • Hey riirii! Welcome to the group. Awesome bunch of ladies here:) My family got together to play tennis this morning. I didn't feel my heart racing too bad but I did break a light sweat. Probably shouldn't put it in my exercise diary because then I will feel like I don't have to do any real work. Just saying I have never…
  • I move into my apartment next Monday! Classes start the Monday after that. So glad I have a week, to find a routine and tweak it until I get it right. Is anyone joining a gym? Or just using on-campus free fitness/rec centers? Since I am moving off campus, going back to campus to workout doesn't sound appealing. It gets so…
  • Hey all! Just a quick drop in because I should probably go to bed soon, gotta get up early because I volunteered to make breakfast for the family. It is our last week together before us kids go off to college. Trying to be nice about. Trying to also get ready for moving out, while getting in some fitness time too. Sure is…
  • I fell off the wagon this weekend, slowly getting back on. My goodness it is tough! Next week is going to be even worse, I move to a new apartment. It is so scary! I really don't want to quit working out, I am just scared about looking at gyms, and if that doesn't go well, having to start running. My body hates running.…
  • I joined a challenge for burning 3500 calories a week to lose a pound a week. It has really got me working out more than I normally would. I would normally be lazy and just do the twenty minutes that is recommended. But this challenge has me going for over an hour, trying to hit the target calories burned. I hope I can…
  • @shanabar I get a silver star. My new goal is still <9500 Yikes, my goal was 9500 because I was going to eat back some exercise calories, instead of doing that, I quit eating once I hit my calorie intake goal. The reason I am so far over, is because Friday night with friends I ended up snacking a lot in the middle of the…
  • It is strange how easy it was for my body to get used to not working out while I was visiting friends. Now that I am home and need to start working out again, my body just did not want to get up and move. But I powered through and I got back on track with my workout. Should be a normal week again.
  • I am getting back on track after taking a break. It was super hard to get back into the groove of things, it is so easy for my body to get used to taking a break. But I powered through and got in my cardio and arms workout that I skipped and I feel good. Don't plan on taking a break anytime again soon because I really…
  • I went to visit college buddies this week, so I missed two days of working out and I sure am paying for it. It set me back little bit from my goal weight, but I'm about to go workout and hopefully I can get in the routine again.
  • Just got back home after visiting friends who stay at school over the summer. I have no healthy food down there. Plus I need to look into their gym memberships because I tried running and I wanted to die. Give me a cardio machine any day. I decided to come home early because I know I will make better decisions here, than…
