@TeeMac - I've seen some pretty incredible results on threads about women lifting heavy lately. I am going to start a 5x5 program this winter (hubby and I are buying weight equipment for Christmas). Maybe consider some weights since T25 is cardio-heavy? I think these lifting programs work well regardless of your level…

Focus T25 Day 4: Alpha Ab Intervals Love this workout! I did not feel like I was going to die today - almost Nailed It. Burned 227 calories today. Not as many as TBC, but I didn't feel like my head was going to explode, so there's an upside. I was glad no one but the baby was home during the superman/rocketman combo. I was…

@wpwarrior88 - I'm the lady with the throbbing head! Lol. I will definitely modify more next time. I sympathize with @SlytherinBat who said she was trembling after the workout. I was too. That can't be good. I'd hate for my husband to come home and find me passed out on the floor! As far as the water goes, I'm a big fan of…

1/2 Apache here. Early in the journey, but it's great to see some fellow Native Americans! Great success stories here :)

Focus T25 Alpha Day 3: Total Body Circuit Eff this workout! Barely made it. I felt like all of my blood was rushing to my head during all of those plank exercises and that made it difficult to push through. Literally felt like the vein in my forehead was going to rupture! Anyone else feel like this or am I just about to…

You can really see a difference! Great job! Bet you'll start taking more pictures now :)

I am a breastfeeding mom too. I did some research on breastfeeding calories because I thought 500 was pushing it as well. I found that it takes 20 calories to produce an ounce of milk in this article: http://www.shape.com/lifestyle/mind-and-body/perks-and-health-benefits-breastfeeding. As babies grow, they drink more per…

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! Your hard work has paid off! I'm sorry that you're having issues with your looks right now. I agree with PPs who say to give it a little time and see where you're at. A good resource is www.realself.com. You can find procedures, board certified doctors in your area, and read personal accounts…

Day 2: Focus T25 Speed 1.0 Calories Burned: 292 In between Nailed It and Barely Made It again My legs and glutes are a little sore from yesterday, but I pushed through and completed Speed 1.0. I usually weigh on Tuesdays, but I think I'll be switching to Saturdays (aka STATurday) from now on. I weighed this morning and was…

I love Geocaching! So fun!

Today did Focus T25 Alpha Cardio. Landed somewhere between Nailed It and Barely Made It - probably closer to Barely Made It. I modified more towards the end. I didn't feel like I was going to die right on the spot though, so that's something! I burned 268(ish) calories based on my calculations with my HRM. I have a Mio…

Lol - I guess I do ramble on sometimes. Just trying to be thorough. :wink:

My name is Jen. I'm a mother of 3 as well - 9, 5, and 5 mo. I'm a marketing director and freelance writer. I started T25 a few months ago, but it caused problems with the quality of my milk, so I stopped. My son has recently started on solids and I am supplementing a little formula each day, so I feel confident things will…

Your weight loss may slow down after an initial big loss. Unfortunately, average weight loss is only 1-2 pounds per week. I know, it sucks. As a male, you may see bigger results than us girls though. I've also read that while you're building muscle (or using ones you haven't in a while), that they hold in some fluid as…

My husband only knows what my goal weight is. He doesn't know how much I currently weigh or want to lose. He's naturally slim and really can eat pretty much what he wants. I mean he hasn't worked out in 2 years and still has a six pack. I just had a baby this summer and feel a lot of pressure to lose weight as quickly as…

[/quote] Hi, welcome! Sorry to hear it affected your supply! Were you eating enough calories? I'm a BFing mom too so I know how it can be trying to lose weight and make sure you are eating enough. Such a delicate balance! My daughter is 20 months old now so if my milk dries up I am not concerned. Sounds like the program…

I bought a Mio Motiva Petite. They're around $100.00, but I found a store sample on eBay for about $35.00. It was still brand new. They just used it for display. I'd look and see what they had on eBay and then google reviews on that brand/model. That's what I did with mine. It doesn't monitor my heart rate the entire time,…

I did about 2 weeks of T25 back in August. I started as soon as my OB/GYN approved exercise after the birth of my son. Unfortunately, it had a major effect on my milk and my son stopped gaining weight - he was "failing to thrive". I stopped T25 at that point. He never really caught back up until we started supplementing a…

I tried a quit smoking hypnotizing CD once. It worked until I got pissed off at my husband and fell off the wagon - lol. I didn't really "need" a cigarette when I started again, I was just mad and I have always used cigarettes as a stress reliever. I wish I had stuck with it. I think it can work if you really want it to.…
