Thanks, it's not like we planned it though :bigsmile: I got back into shape and it just happened, he's our little miracle!

Current age is 49 and I am at my best now! I'm stronger and can run farther than I did at 18. Also had my first baby at 45, my 40's have been my best decade! I should add that I was a high school athlete in several sports. Diana

I had both...we started with the kids potty but they use the seat at daycare so he had to learn that one. He only used the small potty once.

I have a Polar FT7. Like anything else a HRM is based on certain formulas and calculations and are not completely accurate but neither is anything else...like counting calories. The reason I use one is the judge my fitness level as I am training. If you are trying to lose weight it just makes sense to know how many…

Our son was potty trained over a three day weekend. Prior to that I kept trying to get him to sit on the potty but he kept saying he was scared he would flush away so I didn't force him. On Saturday morning I told him, no more diapers and put "big boy" pants on him and told him that he needed to tell me when he had to go…

Try this site, it asks for more measurements that Fat2Fit. It will also give you an average of the three. http://www.gymgoal.com/dtool_fat.html

I use Trutein by Truscience. It has 40% Whey, 40% Micellar Casein, and 20% Egg White with no sugar added. 23g Protein with Omega 3's as well. Hook Em Horns!! Diana

BUMP!

Some say eat more some say eat less. Well, do what's right for you, if you have been netting 1200 calories or less try eating more because as you said you have not lost any weight. Noticed I said "netting" not consuming, there is a difference. Since you stated you are excercising you need to watch what you NET not consume.…

Bump!

I add my chocolate/banana protein powder with berries. You can use frozen, just mix the yogurt and protein powder and place a couple of berries on top, place back into the refrig and let the berries thaw , then mix. It's awesome!

Very interesting! I did not know that, thanks for the info! Diana

This looks about right for these two workouts. To me your strength work out was a little high, to burn over 1000 calories you must have been really working those pull-ups! :laugh: If you are out of shape, you will burn more calories because you are working harder. As you progress through the progam building your endurance…

Perfect, I'm going to have to save this!!

I totally agree with you on this. Growing up I competed on the swim and track teams. When I first started swimming I was 7 or 8 and was horrible. I watched the other kids get to compete and win the blue, red, or white ribbons (first, second, & third). It was my goal to win a ribbon so I practiced!! It was my accomplishment…

Hi! I have done three rounds of Insanity. I started it to lose 30lbs from having my baby. I started at 148 and I am now 129-125 ( fluctuate). All I can say is make sure you are eating enough. I found that at 143 & 135 I stopped losing and I upped my calories and started back up again. Also, don't be intimidated by the…

I am also 5' 6' and my weight will fluctuate between 125-130, depends on what type of eating plan I'm on and my excercise routine. When I was around 135 I hit a plateau, I upped my calorie intake and reduced grains and cheese for two weeks, I started to lose again and got below 130. I have since added those items back into…

It may be do to a "dietary deficiency" as in not eating enough. I know for myself, if I don't eat my recommended daily intake and excercise calories back I don't have the energy to get through a workout like I should.

How about Keanu Reeves?! :bigsmile:

Protien Fluff! It's awesome and good for you. I cut down on the amount of fruit I put it though and don't eat a whole serving from the recepies. I use Truscience Chocolate/Banana Protein Powder. http://www.proteinfluff.com/ diana

I'm so impressed you were able to handle yourself so well! Kudos to you for speaking up, I don't know that I could if faced with the same situation. I like to think that I could! Congratulations on your weight loss as well! Diana

I am a member of Beachbody and get all my workout programs and suppliments at a discounted price, it's not much but it helps. The only "authorized" places to purchase these workouts is through Beachbody, a Beachbody Coach, or Amazon. If you purchase through these dealers and something is wrong with your DVD's they can be…

[/quote] there is a double standard that exists, and i don't think it should. [/quote] Welcome to how the world works!

I was just making a statement. I think you need to lighten up is all. I too once went for a period of time without eating meat and yes people made comments. SO WHAT! It's not their business and you just need to let it roll off your back. There are so many other things in this world to worry about other than what people…

A plant was once alive...just sayin'

No problem! If you have any more questions feel free to send me a message or a friend invite. Diana

Wow, he did have you doing a lot for your first time out. In all reality you should have been doing 12-15 reps for each exercise. I agree with some of the other posters here. You need to take it slow and not go all out at first. Make sure you are using light weights and don't do as many reps. You should build up in weight…

Yes, this is normal but only for the first couple of times you workout, it doesn't last forever. You used muscles that you have not been using. Since you did some weights, this process tears your muscle and builds it back up. That's why you are sore. I recommend you go to your local health food store and buy two things in…

I was told I could never have children. We had our miracle baby when I was 45! He is now three and I thank God he came into our lives. You never know what is in store for you. Diana
