L2D2 completed! I needed the rest I took. My hip flexor was very tight and sore... I ran 5.2 miles on saturday and my legs were very sore from that and so today I got back in the saddle .... felt good to be back on the shred again; I felt invigorated after taking some time to rest because I have been really over exerting…

Thanks buddy! :tongue:

I'm so glad there aren't mirrors anywhere near our treadmills at the gym... lol

I think you have gotten the MOST quoted replies EVER... especially for a 3 page post... BAHA Straight up hilarious!

YOU ARE LUCKY! I have had the worst PMS symptoms ever since I was a teenager... I'm sure you are a wonderful person but you are making it hard for people like me to like you right now... lol :laugh:

Pregnant women can consume an extra 500 calories a day... doubt that someone on their period can. I would look it up on WebMD or something similar. Also, nursing mothers only need about 500 extra calories a day so honestly those things are much more labor intensive on your body than your monthly cycle...

I totally agree! I've been working out regularly... 5 - 7 days a week for over 1 1/2 years and I just started it and it's very challenging to me... Start with other things first. Get used to doing some of those things first. Go to some group fitness classes at your gym if you have a gym or try doing some monthly challenges…

I DID NOT do the workout today.... However I have a great reason! I went to the 25th anniversary celebration of my wellness center where I workout and Ali Vincent was there as the guest speaker!!! loved it! I still worked my patookis off today in the gym... not to worry :wink:

It's the people I know that fuss and complain about being overweight and wanting to look better but then eat crap ALL of the time. I try not to judge, but seriously... stop complaining that every time you see me I look better and you have that look on your face like your sick with yourself but then you go pick you up taco…

I love this! If you offended anyone, then they are not in "reality land". Thanks for posting this; these are all things that bug the people that are doing things as close to the "right way" as possible.

I was thin all through school; sometimes a little too thin. It wasn't even on purpose, but when I look back on it, my family barely had enough money to feed us, much less very well. I think most of my "thinness" growing up was due to lack of nutrition and I was very busy in highschool. When I started working, I started…

Oh, yeah ... what I was gonna say was that I am getting so annoyed by Jillian talking during the workout... and when it zooms in on her, you can tell she needs to shave her underarms... kinda weird considering she must've known she was filming a workout dvd... but ANYWAYS... just really could care less for her... lol...

I think my post disappeared from yesterday; I checked the first 20 pages, but oh well.... Did Level 1 day 8 today ( I decided to count the two I did in one day although I wasn't originally going to). Has anyone figured out what they are going to be for Halloween? I am thinking of being Katy Perry... the one where she came…

Me too! When I can't eat them all I usually get around half of them back (even on high burn days). I do A LOT of strength training. If I don't eat my calories back then I'll lose the muscle I'm trying to build. I'm sure not eating them back works for some but you'll also have the "skinny fat" problem most likely. You'll be…

I'd say this: If you are comfortable wearing it out to grocery shop in (and see someone that you know), wear it to the gym.... That to me is a good rule of thumb.

Thanks. I completed day 5 today thank goodness.... Yeah, my hubs is great like that too (sitting from the sidelines) however mine likes to motivate me by talking smack sometimes... lol... on the first day to do it, he stared at me while I did my push-ups (I did 10 normal ones on my toes and then switched to my knees) and…

Somehow I missed this thread; just saw this today.... :cry: So, I will catch up on the mini challenges today. :wink:

That's a fantastic NSV! Congrats and Kudos for all your hard work!

You look absolutely fabulous!

I just now finished day 4. I know I'm behind a few days, I took a few days off at the beginning (I know... why?) but it's just life. My calfs are so sore!

my collar bone is starting to show, but not really any others yet... I can feel my side ribs more and my hip bones but those always seemed to show on me more than anything else...

bumpity bump bump

I have had a blah day today; I've felt lethargic and no energy all day. However, I knew that I needed to do the workout so I did. I did day 3 today. Glad I did and I think it helped my mood. By the Way, great job everyone!

I've been told Lindsay Lohan. http://www.celebfoto.net/lindsay-lohan-13.html[/url] When I was younger, it was Sissy Spacek. http://www.allmoviephoto.com/photo/2005_coal_miners_daughter_005.html[/url]

pluh.... So I just did day 2... I skipped a few days (not in my regular workouts but on 30 DS); no real excuses other than life got busy. I'm back though. Since I skipped a few days I decided to kill it and did level1 and level 2 to see how hard it was comparatively... why did I do that? lol two of those workouts in a row…

Put my measurements and weight on there; I have some weight looming from the weekend; I drank too much and ate some not so great stuff, but I know it will come right back off when I drink enough water.... just gotta give it a few mornings. Looking forward to being HAWT by Halloween :happy:

Yaay! I haven't followed in a while, but I'm in it to win it... especially with all the holidays coming up. I started 30 DS yesterday (October 1st) and am wanting to lose 6 pounds this month. My body has other plans usually but I think I can do it... I'm going to concentrate on eating clean, clean, clean... and…

AWESOME! I just started Level1 day1 today. Looking forward to some results! :happy:

I did 30DS d1L1 today and I really liked it. I also ran a tough 3 miles and then stretched with some yoga. I kicked my butt for sure.
