When you warm up for your next work out, it will help you feel better, then end it with a good stretch. The longer you sit, the worse it feels. Take some anti-inflammatory medicine like motrin, and drink lots of water. My advice on heavy workouts like that is: 1) Yes push yourself so you are sore, that means you're making…

Aloha from Hawaii!

But you haven't gained it all back. Look how much you are still ahead of where you were. Your body will remember those workouts before, and you can tackle it again. Just start, and within a week, you'll be feeling those good endorphins kick in. Do it for YOU!

1) I keep checking myself out in mirrors because I can't believe how much better I feel and look having lost almost 10 lbs. 2) I threw a tantrum last night when I lost bad in a game with my hubby and son. I threw myself in bed and refused to talk to anyone. 3) I am completely happy being what a lot of people consider…

I had the best experience the other day. As a family we were talking and my husband said, in front of our 4 kids up to age 14, that I was his idol. I didn't know he felt THAT proud of me for getting up at 4:30am, 5xs a week since January. I know I"m proud of myself, but that just made my jaw drop. He's slowly getting…

I agree, I'm also 139 but I'm thinking she looks way better than I do! lol I have kids too. Appreciate what you have now, I always regret not doing that when I end up gaining weight from not working out.

I started Jan 3rd, and am SO thrilled to see a huge difference in my body shape too! Way to go!! Keep it up!! There's no doubt we can get to our goal by just keeping up to what we've been doing already!

I have more respect for anyone who is older or overweight out there running or in the gym. *My biggest inspiration was when I saw the Biggest Looser competitors run a marathon. * That's what made me decide to try my first 5K. Since then I've become a bit addicted to races; they keep me committed. Thanks to all those who…

So I used to be judgmental on this until I was done having 4 kids and left feeling like I wanted to do it for myself. Why not after giving my all to childrearing and caring?!! I plan to do it, just haven't picked a good time where people won't notice. lol! Being military, I think between moves would be ideal. I don't want…

Holy moly, you look awesome!!! Keep up the good work! I found that seeing my body change was motivation in itself to keep going and working hard. You should be proud!

HA ha ha!! She drives me nuts, not to mention she is just outright mean. I just remembered i have it recorded; Yay!

I committed the first week of January and have lost 7 lbs!!! I get up at 4:30 am 5 days a week to work out, and have tracked my food every day, good and bad. I'm almost back into my regular clothes and am SHOCKED at how my body shape has changed. My butt is lifted, my endurance is through the roof, and thighs look tighter,…

I always under eat what it tells me to, otherwise I wouldn't loose anything. I loose about 1 lb a week and that is when I consistently eat about 500 less calories a day than this program tells me (but I never go under 1350 calories or so). I think what's important is what types of food you're using to fuel your body. Get…

Wow, I am in AWE! I wish I had half the confidence you all have! I have nothing to complain about, other than I do have tons of stretch marks and 15 to loose. But I can't bring myself to flaunt it! And it seems like every 5 years (and 5 lbs heavier) I look back and say "What the heck was I complaining about?". I guess my…

I can't say first hand this works, but I keep hearing that refined sugar is the culprit. That's why things like ketchup and dressings that contain sugar are worth identifying, because it's snuck into foods you wouldn't think would have it. So even if you eliminate it from obvious foods, you might still be eating it in…
