Full time working mom with a 10 month old and a husband who is hardly ever home. I meal plan our dinners for 2 weeks at a time, partially prep each dinner the night before, and get my workout after the baby is in bed. Super hectic but it works for me right now.

I'm starting it tonight.

I'm starting tonight.

Congrats!! I'm 10 weeks! My dr. said to keep on exercising but just do low impact stuff, and to not let my heart rate get above 140. I've just been doing the elliptical and walking on the treadmill at the gym. I was never that into weights before so I decided that for now I should just stick to what I know, and that's…

I'm 10w5d and have gained 4.6 lbs so far. I'm trying to not gain a ton so I'm still keeping track somewhat of most of my food. Trying to get back into working out regularly.

I'm due 10/5! Since finding out I was pregnant, I've only worked out a handful of times. But last night I went back to the gym, hoping to start out this week right. Ended up doing 20 minutes on the elliptical and 40 minutes of walking. My dr. said to not get my heart rate above 140, it's hard to focus on that.

Not working for me either today.

I've been doing smoothies for breakfast every day for about the past 2 years. I change up the recipe usually every week or so so that I don't get bored. I just prefer doing that because it's good on the go. I make it before I leave the house in the morning, drink on the way to work and finish up once I get there. If I made…

I weigh in daily. I like seeing the fluctuations. Helps me to know what I did right/wrong each day.

I change my recipe every week usually, don't want to get bored. This week I'm doing green grapes, frozen pineapple chunks, frozen strawberries, handful of spinach and a tbsp of chia seeds.

I know it can't be helped but it still bothers me. If I go to the gym around 7-8am on weekends, there's this guy who gets on a treadmill and sweats a ridiculous amount. I mean, there'll be a puddle on the machine, all over the top, beads of sweat flying on the machines next to it. He cleans it all up when he's done, but…

Add me too! I love to make new friends.

Add me! I love new friends.

I don't say that I diet, I just make better choices whenever possible. I'll never deprive myself of anything. If I feel to need to do some extra working out to feel better about any possible bad food that I'll eat, then ok. It's the holiday season and I fully intend to enjoy it.

I live in Buffalo and hate doing anything outside in the cold. I cancelled my gym membership at the beginning of the year to save a little money each month. So now that it's getting colder and I don't want to run outside I've been doing various Beachbody workouts and bike riding on my trainer in the basement. Looking…

I was going to say kale!!! Tried it once, hated it! Threw out the smoothie it was in.

It's a holiday, enjoy it. No stress. Thanksgiving happens once a year.

I always keep a bag of chocolate chips in my fridge. That's my go to when I need a little bit of a chocolate fix. Just a small handful is plenty.

I've been eating candy all week! I work in a doctor's office and a drug rep brought us in 3 bags of Halloween candy. I've been letting myself have 1 piece everyday after lunch. It's my little treat for the day. As long as there's room in my calories, I go for it. As for Halloween, I'll be getting in an Insanity workout…

Downtown! Macklemore...been stuck all day long!

Sounds like you have negative calorie adjustments on.

mmm deep fried kit kat! OOO and deep fried cookie dough is pretty darn delicious too... just very rich and you can't eat very much of it!

Try working on your endurance, keep gradually increasing your distance and with time your speed will improve.

I have a smoothie everyday for breakfast. My current one is a banana, frozen strawberries, handful of fresh spinach, tbsp of chia seeds, half cup of milk, and 1/4 cup of orange juice, and about a cup of water.

So far the only flavor from the new formula that I haven't liked was the Strawberry Cheesecake. But I was never a huge fan of that one.. just kind of tolerated it. I don't like pumpkin anything so I won't be trying the new one.

This is such a great idea!

I definitely plan on being careful. Just from doing the Fit Test I saw how much slower I was compared to them. Just gotta keep up a pace that works for me. A 12 to a 6?! You got great results!! Did you follow the eating plan too?

I don't usually log when I go out for meals. It's not often so I just consider that a bit of a cheat meal and treat myself.

I am starting it now, did the 1st Fit Test last night.
