Did 'em all but the deadlifts, Beeps. Thanks. I did need a change up. Boredom is not my friend, and I was getting bored.

:laugh: :bigsmile: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :bigsmile: I agree. OK. so what is wtf? I thought it was cursing too. Another day of "i don't wanna's ". My boobies are sore -pms. I need some back exercises. Any ideas? ELG, It will be tight. You'll have to shorten your rest time.

hahahaha! I would have thought the same thing.

I didn't want to, no ma'am. BUT I DID! Did my own little workout that I posted last week for my arms and legs. I need something new .Bored. I don't want to do NROL4W or Abs again. Too fussy workouts. I want plain and simple but effective.

UGH! It's hard to get back in routine. I don't wanna go to the gym :sad: :sad:

My biceps hurt from the workout last week. A lady gently squeezed my arm yesterday and I thought I was going to hit the ceiling. I've had pain /soreness in the quads before but never in the arms like that. Today will be my first full week of exercise in a month! Since this drama with daughter, I haven't had the time ,…

I'm back. I am taking my life back. I gave my heart and life to my kids and one has decided she can do without me. No more laying in bed crying and wondering what I have done or what I could have done differently. 30 min elliptical and 15 lifting . My boot-tay will be sore tomorrow. I can feel it tightening already. 3 sets…

THREE cotton pickin weight gain over the holidays for me. BAck to the gym Monday. My daughter situation has turned for the worse. We cut her off financially and she hasn't contacted us in 2 days . It is hard to do this but she wants to play grown up she can pay for her own way.

Tastiest- Same here with the Pecan Pie. LOVED it. THe crust was buttery and flaky. Best gift-Hubs bought me my first expensive purse. I usually find one in the Dept store brand. But he bought me a Dooney & burke. Even used a store coupon LOL Saved $30 It will be next year before I get to the gym. Probably the first full…

Hello, everyone. Been MIA. My Bday was Sunday. Kids made me breakfast in bed served on new Fiesta dishes. (son purchased them ) Husband gave me a BookBook for my iphone. Love it. Looks like a small book . It will hold iphone and license and a few cards. I requested NO cake. I don't care for bday cake. I did request…

In the program I am following, the author states "don't try to diet during holidays. You only beat yourself down." (a lot of paraphrasing) Therefore, I am trying to maintain my TEN pound loss :bigsmile: . Beeps, it kills me that you and I are the same weight but YOU ARE HOT! and If I am not mistaken, you are a good 4…

Beeps, Amazing! You need to send me your workouts. I'm bored with the one my son has had me doing. No one answered my question so I'll ask again: I am not getting DOMS anymore. Do I need to change the workout or greatly increase weights?

I didn't make it to the gym. Husband had to be gone all day and I don't do the gym late in the evening/night. I WILL go tomorrow. It really helped my mood. Today Before supper, 18 year old boy and I danced in the kitchen. CRAZILY. :bigsmile: It was fun. Yep, I lost another pound this week. Down to 146. ((doing the Cabbage…

I made it to the gym!!!! (dance dance dance) LOL I didn't work too hard. I have lost some strength in my arms. I'll get in back by the end of the week or next week. No biggie. Cardio -I didn't push it. I did a steady pace on the elliptical. I can gradually increase incline and resistance my next time around. Beeps, It's so…

I would like to lose a total of 17 pounds next year. I've lost 9 since October. So I think 17 is feasible. I had been working on assisted pull ups but I lost that motivation. It hurts my shoulder too bad. OH, that reminds me. I saw a dr about my shoulder. I have an mri and nerve conduction study scheduled Jan. 6. He says…

I didn't make it to the gym. I slept until 11:30 :frown: My baby got up around 9:30 , played, and then brought me coffee which she made all by herself at 11:30. I told her one time how to make it and she remembered! But that doesn't surprise me, she does so well in school. I didn't have the energy or motivation to go.…

Hi , ladies. Tomorrow I jump back on track. I've sabotaged myself the past few days. My oldest has decided to make some very heart wrenching adult decisions. She won't move back home. It's difficult to see her throw away what she knows is right and the best for her. But she has people on the other side whispering in her…

Cowgirl, I didn't read the article yet. The plan I follow suggests a "diet break" every 4th week. I've managed to maintain weight so far. This month will be difficult to follow the plan. My family and I will be traveling this week. I am pretty sure I can stay within my allotted calories but the lack of exercise will hurt…

I feel like a lazy bum. I haven't worked out since Tuesday. There just isn't enough hours in the day this week. Next week we will be traveling ....... Now I'm scared I will get out of the mode. Lose motivation. Start eating like a heifer again. Gain weight......... It's cold here in the Deep South. I bet if there was any…

Thanks, Ladies. beep, I am curious what are your lower ab and butt measurement. I have a LOT of fat to lose on the bottom before I get your size. I didn't lose any inches in thighs this month. No workout today and for the next 10 days. We will be traveling next week but I'll get my walking in! Visiting daughter in Orlando…

OK I am EXCITED to report to yall my measurements since last month!!!! Natural Waist was 27.25--26.5 Belly Button was 29--28 Groin 38--37 Saddle bag 41--40 That's almost FOUR inches lost!

OH MY! I did sumo squats. (some call them ballet squats) I worked on going deep and wider legs. Those babies work all the way around the upper thigh. MY bootie is hurt-in'. I wasn't going deep enough before. It's amazing how I what I learn each day. No wonder I haven't seen great results, my form sucks. I see an Orthopedic…

some women lose weight and LOOK FANTASTIC just with this program and cutting back a couple hundred calories, but as for me I followed his "calculation" for calories and I gained 6 pounds. Humans aren't cookie cutters and not everyone can go by the guidelines. Calorie maintenance level is really low for me. Drives me insane…

Tomorrow is weigh in day. I'll see what last week has done to me. I don't think it's too bad. The scales tonight show a pound gain. Sam, I had THREE Dunkin Donuts on the drive home. SOOOOOO Delicious. 1000 cals in donuts in ONE day. I don't regret it. Last week was my free week I think I did alright. It is hard to get back…

Today is a free week for me. FINALLY! I'm suppose to cut cals for a week, increase a bit more the next, cut back again, and 4th week FREE . But due to the holidays, I switched it up. My first FREE week in SIX weeks. :drinker: I have eaten like there's no tomorrow. Not really but I haven't counted calories. Not sure if I…

Thanks, Sam :ohwell: Now I want Dunkin Donuts. We will be traveling Wednesday. I just might stop and get a dozen. There's 4 of us.... 3 each lol

Cowgirl, they are delish...... Jo, I KNOW! I love peanut m&m's, PB m&m's , Reese's, snickers, etc. Anyway you can give me a peanut. Nada for today. We laid in the bed until 12:30! It's raining and only 46 degrees. UGH . The lazy make you wanna eat days.

Had a momentary lapse in judgement and caved to the sugar craving . :sad: I feel really gross now. Five mini reese cups 240 cals. Next week is my "free week" . Why didn't I just stay away! Oh, yeah, I can blame TOM. I worked out today. It was suppose to be a light workout, just because. I ended up mixing things up. You…

It's a dreary rainy day. It matches my mood. Tom....... I really don't want to workout but I'll go just to get out of the house. More than likely, it will be a light easy workout but hey! I will be moving.

<1989 . What was I thinking! :laugh: I thought I was fat . I wish I was that "fat" again.
