I just count that as bonus calories burnt, lol.

Wow, thanks everyone! I can't believe the overwhelming response! I feel so much better now! For the record - this park is a flat bed of grass DIRECTLY in front of my house. It's a rectangle with houses surrounding it! So I think the cap and/or sunglasses is a very good idea...

Play my guitar naked ;)

Push-ups, squats, the plank, lunges, bicycle crunches. Do this in a circuit and you're golden.

Lots of fresh air. Green tea. :)

If I had the means, the support, and the will power I'd be vegan for sure :)

A little healthy fat wouldn't hurt :) Almonds or walnuts are great.

You can buy big bags of ice at gas stations. Plus coolers are meant to keep the cold in. When you get to a hotel, if there's a mini fridge, but it in there! When you leave - get more ice! lol.... Also, if you buy those little milks at a time I'm sure you'll drink it before it gets gross - you can buy little milk cartons at…

Very interesting as well. :)

You could buy those little cereal packs with milk (do you guys bring a cooler along?) Fruits/veggies (fresh - like apples, oranges, bananas, carrots, snap peas) Nuts and seeds Gas stations sometimes have sandwiches and what not. When you're at a restaurant, instead of fries (or whatever) you could order a baked potato,…

I still eat bread and pasta. I eat 80% whole wheat bread and white pasta (no one in my home would eat whole wheat pasta.) I just make sure I don't have more then 2 slices of bread in a day and I watch my portions when I eat pasta.

Eating muscle to survive = not gooood! I tend to think of a skinny, wet noodle. lol.

Wow! You're beautiful :)

Thanks for posting this! I friggin' LOVE cereal :)

I found this: http://www.naturalnews.com/027345_Vitamin_D_sun_exposure_blood.html - not sure how accurate it is, though. I've also read 400 - 1000 IU.

I love this list (it's in a link, sorry!) http://www.spartafit.com/nutrition/healthy%20foods%20list.php

That's a good one!

That's ah-mazing! I gained 36 with my son, lost some, gained it back plus some and am in the process of losing. Congrats on the awesome loss! We all have bad days and good days - focus on the good! :)

Makes sense, ladies! I live in Canada and we had such a long winter this year. I just can't believe the difference this is making. I feel so much better - it's like a complete black-and-white difference in how I feel.

OMGosh, THIS!

Thanks everyone! I'm so pumped for this! :P

This was taught in my university kinesiology class.

I used to run intervals on the treadmill. This is a bit different. I actually love running intervals because I'm the kind who gets bored easily! This will keep me in check, haha. :)

This is just an example of a typical day for me: Meal 1: 1.25 cups of cereal, 1/2 banana with 1 cup 1% milk Meal 2: 1 large apple and 1 cup of low-fat yogurt Meal 3: 1 bowl of chicken noodle soup (low sodium), 3/4 tuna sandwich on 60% whole wheat bread, 7 baby carrots Meal 4: Handful of almonds, 1 mixed whole grain/granola…

:: butts in :: I have a quick question. Do you work the same muscles every day - or different ones? :: butts out ::

Thursdays. But I'm thinking about switching to what you're doing because I'm bad on the weekends and try to make up for it during the week. Ugh. lol.

Losing inches is absolutely AWESOME - and when you're losing inches but not "weight" it's solid proof that you are losing fat and gaining muscle - which is going to make you look way more toned! Try not to be frustrated about the scale.

I notice a BIG difference! Way to go!

I sent you a msg ;)

Wowza! What a big difference. You look amazing!
