  • you should rest 1 or 2 days a week. I log it as circuit training general for 24 minutes. good luck!
  • don't get discouraged!! You are on the right path. I agree w/ someone else who recommended taking measurements. I've only dropped 2 lbs in the last 6 months, but I have lost inches and can definitely feel the muscles getting stronger and stronger. Are you tracking everything you are eating? Do make sure you're not eating…
  • so happy for you!! It is amazing how getting into a good routine of eating well and exercising really does make you feel good. Especially when you start seeing those results!! Congratulations!!! (and thanks for making me smile...I was singing along w/ the title of your post!)

I do drink a ton of water, but usually have 1 serving of caffeine a day- usually DC in the hot summer time. Good luck to you!…
  • This web site is awesome! It really helped me to realize how my eating can undo my exercise efforts. I am a fairly healthy eater, but when I actually started logging the little things I'd eat here and there, it made me realize how those 'little snacks' add up. Good luck to you!
  • it may be time for new shoes, too. I notice when the support on my shoes breaks down, I feel more aches and pains.
  • I agree w/ taking measurements. I recorded them when I started working out about 3 months ago. I have lost several inches, but just lost a couple of pounds finally this week. My weight had stayed constant over the first 10 wks. I have been doing Jillian Michaels' workouts, though, so I know I have been building muscle, so…
