I love Zumba. I haven't been able to take the class in a while due to my schedule change but hope to get back into it. I introduced my work husband to it about three years ago and he has lost so much weight and LOVES IT! I'm trying to convince him to start teaching a class in our office when we move.

GREAT JOB!!! You look amazing. Congratulations on your weight loss success and maintenance.

Not sure where you live but you can check Walmart, Target, Best Buy. I found a somewhat decent one for about $25. It's not very accurate but it helps. Also try Ebay, Amazon, craigs list and freecycle (yahoo group). I'm sure you will find something inexpensive it just may take a little hunting.

I tell my boys all the time that the finish line is more important than the starting block. You can do this!! We have all been in shoes where we start again. Take one day at a time and you will reach your goals. Feel free to add me as well.

Count me in! CW - 165 GW - 132 I would like to be able to run my entire 3 mile walk/jog and run a 5K. Be more defined by Christmas. Feel free to add me as a friend. Regimen: 3x week - Bob Harper Kettlebell, walk/jog 3x week, yoga/pilates 2x week

What is it?

As of 8/7 - 8.3 miles I use nikeplus and dailymile to track my walks/runs.

Divorced since 2009

My second son was not planned. I was on the pill but still conceived. I was in great shape and talking to an Air Force Reserve recruiter to sign up. I gained maybe 5-10lbs. I lost 13lbs during the first 2 trimesters because I couldn't keep anything down. I would be sick looking at or smelling many foods especially meat and…

PG County - Upper Marlboro/Largo/Mitchellville or whatever they want to be called this week.

Spinach with strawberries, feta, walnuts and viniagrette dressing, use in smoothies (almond milk, spinach, banana, protein powder, fresh/frozen blueberries), spinach and kale sauteed with olive oil, fresh shallots and garlic, chop and add it to your meatloaf (I use ground turkey, chopped fresh spinach, chopped fresh…

When dining out I usually stick to lean meats, seafood, salads but not always. I ask for a to-go container when I order my meal. When the meal arrives put half away and eat the other half. You can also share the meal/dessert with someone. Family dinners try to load up on crudites, veggie dishes or bring a dish you know you…

Here is a workout I got from a trainer to use at home: 100 Jumping Jacks (Wide arms- works chest) 90 Crunches 80 Squats (With or without weights) 70 Leg Lifts (With or without 5lb medicine ball) 60 Jumping Jacks (Wide arms- works chest) 50 Crunches 40 Squats (With or without weights) 30 Leg Lifts (With or without 5lb…

Rory fresh spinach and kale in a smoothie along with the fruits is another great treat. I trick my kids with my veggie powerhouse:-)

I started today and so far I like it. I wanted to ramp up my workouts and decided to add this one in rotation along with my other activities. I will say my legs are definitely feeling the burn already which is a good thing.

Start P90X with the Tuesday workout. You could also double up your day to catch up but I think you guys will be fine with missing today.

I don't always have time or the appetite for a cooked breakfast and will make a smoothie instead. I like making my own because I control the ingredients. Here is one I make regularly: banana, strawberry, blueberry, psyllium (sp) husk, barley grass powder, whey isolate protein or hemp protein, almond milk, and ice. I'm…

Yikes I forgot. Will start over tomorrow :-) 181.4 - Can't make the font smaller. I hate typing/writing that number.

I just got the BBL program and will start Monday morning. I'm going to do the Classic/Combo program. I will report back and let you all know how it goes. Oh and I only paid $37.95 with free shipping.

I gave up all sweets, fried foods and soda for lent so PMS time is particularly challenging. I satisfy that craving with a salad with tons of spinach, avocado and craisins or I will make a green tea smoothie. When I gave in to my cravings I went overboard and gained more than just water weight and I don't want to keep…
