okay I am officially writing this week off! This is the worst one I have had since I started with MFP:mad: I worked out just fine and I don't do desserts normally so that wasn't an issue but during the weekend I enjoyed a few special treats "BBQ's, Pizza and beer" and now I have gained 2.4 lbs. AAHHHH!!!!!!! I'm really…

that's a good solution to swap out with another video. I will check out the P90x cardio and the other one and let you know :smile:

AAhhhh, I have scared myself by reading what others have said about the next levels...:sad: I am actually getting a little bored of the cardio 1 and I still have two more weeks of it. I don't think I will be doubling for the rest of the week so today I went for a 5Km jog at lunch for the cardio instead and I will do WO1…

Yep, count me in! :laugh:

I think you are right, so I went out to Walmart today at lunch and bought some 5 lb weights. I have 10 lbs at home as well but I'm not ready for those. Have you noticed that your arms are sore but not your shoulders? I feel the pain (tightness) on my biceps and triceps when I reach after my work out.

D'oh I walked/hiked my butt off last week thinking this was a one week challenge not a month long challenge :frown: I definitely won't be keeping up this pace for the month (still suffering from shin splints)... maybe my challenge should be to read the challenges correctly! :laugh:

It's going to be so funny in a month or two from now when we look back at these comments...we will no longer be praising the workouts but be cursing them instead and dreading doing doubles of any sort. hahaha! :laugh:

I'm doing another week of the kickstart, mainly because I was sick for two days so I didn't do double work outs on those days (no cardio). I was surprised not to lose any weight as I have been studying her guides religiously and following along closely but I noticed I was eating more (especially breakfast which I hate) so…

I don't have any 5 lbs only 3 and 8, so I used 3 lbs for most moves but found them to light but when I switched to the 8's I couldn't do as many moves (except for workout 2 where most of the lifts are with heavier weights). I think I need to buy 5lbs but wanted to know what everyone else used on average....was I just a…

Double cardio day....oh yah! :tongue: I am repeating the kick start week for week 2 since I was not well for two of the days plus I think it's fun:laugh: Anyone else?

I am loving these workouts. After being sick it was great jumping back into it full stream....the cardio is my favorite :heart:

TIL - Why it is beneficial to switch from lettuce to spinach. Fiber Vegetables such as baby spinach and lettuce are full of insoluble fiber. This type of fiber makes digestion occur quickly by sweeping out your gut. Insoluble fiber keeps you regular and can help relieve constipation. Women should get somewhere between 21…

I have just finished the GONE series by Michael Grant. Good read but I am not happy with the ending won't say any more in case someone else is reading this series. I finished "The Internet is a Playground" by David Thorne...too funny! I will definitely be reading his other book "I'll go home then, it's warm and has chairs"…

WOHOO TEAM B-G!!! we are rockin' it! Keep up the good work ladies :happy:

Yikes!! at least everyone is safe. I have been watching the flooding in Europe and USA on the news (along with tornadoes) it is all so astounding really. I guess I can't complain about too much right now in comparison eh?! Good luck and take care :flowerforyou:

Started Jillian Micheals Body Revolution this week, so far I really like it. I am also trying to walk around the lake by work everyday at lunch but don't know when i'll get a chance to swim....i'll have to think about that one. Hows everyone doing with the challenges this week?

Crazy how easy the workouts feel...now i'm worried for whats to come. Did wo2 and cardio 1 today, really fun workouts and I'm still sweating lots so they must be working:wink:

Like you I love FOOD...hence my need to work it off:wink: I am trying to do clean eating but I do enjoy a few bad foods here and there. I like most of the foods in Jillians kick start plan but I especially like that I can mix and match as long as the calories are the same, makes eating choices a lot easier! Of course I…

Work out wasn't that hard but I also just finished Ripped in 30 so I did the cardio right after.....now I'm tired. I love Jillian in these videos she is so motivating and I love having a group of people to watch instead of just two. Although Natalie and Anita were still there the guys were awesome! I thimk I'm going to…

Okay, I already posted my inspiration photos and now I have had time to think about my 7 reasons for wanting to get healthy. This is actually tougher then I expected as I wanted to write ME for every reason:laugh: 1. To be fit and healthy with lots of energy (need to keep up with the kids). 2. To actually wear a bathing…

I am so sorry to hear about your struggles. I can honestly say I have been there and it does get better. My boyfriend had an undetermined attack on his nervous system a few years back...it was HELL! all the appointments, hospitals, MRI's, CAT scans and then Physio to rebuild nerve control. I wish your hubby a speedy…

I guess the title of DVD kind of gave way that it wasn't going to be a quality fitness workout "Flirty Girl Workout" LOL! I am addicted to the Jillian Micheals videos and do these daily :happy: I think a lot of things motivate me but they might seem negative to others so do I post it and risk offending people?? Nah! I'll…

Wow I don't even know what half of that means "goldencoley" :laugh: I'm going to keep it simple, I need to lose 20 lbs and get educate on fitness stats terminology...lol! CW: 145 lbs GW: 125 lbs

Hi everyone, I am so excited to find this group. I just got the DVD's as a gift from my boyfriend because I really liked the JM videos (30 day shred & ripped in 30). Thought I had to start my own group until I saw this one! I will also be starting June 3rd and sticking to the schedule, so I'm with you goldencoley!! I have…

Finally tried something new "Flirty Girl Workout" then deleted the videos as I will NEVER watch/workout that again! How do people stay cute, perky and sweaty free when working out? I'm the totally opposite so this video pissed me off! :explode: well I better get an advantage for that waste of my time :wink:
