Wow, another triple, way to go!!! You'll be able to give me a heads up on month two - looking forward to it in a sadistic kinda way, tho very scared. Have worked from home again today so was able to have a little lay in (i.e. not getting up at 6am to workout) and do my workout at lunchtime. Caught sight of myself in the…

Finally got round to Power once my little boy was in bed, and talked my daughter and husband into doing it with me. My 8 yr old thought it was fun and chatted constantly throughout - but my poor husband.....hating any kind of aerobic routine combined with a tad too much weight and minimal exercise for many years, he was…

Just got my husband to test me using the methods my homeopath uses, testing all the things I've been eating over last few days and looks like it's peanut butter and cheese, two great sources of protein.......never mind - back to the drawing board for quick easy snacks.

Not feeling so amazing today - did the recovery yest morning and felt exhausted all day. Have eaten pretty much the same things for last three days and think something hasnt been agreeing with me, all bloated and headachy, so was in bed by 9ish again last night after falling asleep on the sofa and hoping I'll feel better…

Got home last night and flaked, was in bed by 9.30pm - so got up and 5.30 this morning and caught up.....Plyo, Cardio & Abs....aaarrrgggghhhhh, just about made it thru but boy am I gonna ache tomorrow. Hope everyone else doing ok and your cold isn't feeling too bad HS. xxx

Thanks HS, feeling better now - tho not excited by the prosepect of Plyo once I go home, will do it tho, come what may. Managed not to succumb to choc today, tho did have a big lunch and have been grazing all of my 'meals' all day at work, and chomping gum like it's going out of fashion. All afternoon cuold think of…

Great job HS, as you say I'm sure form improvement accounts for the drop in numbers. I'm really struggling today, and in a foul mood - really lost my mojo. Didn't start Plyo till 7am which is late for me, and before I'd even got through the workout I switched it off cos I was just going thru the motions, wasn't even nearly…

Hi all Fit test results from this morning: Switch Kicks 58 62 Power Jacks 60 64 Power Knees 82 100 Power Jumps 30 35 Globe Jumps 10 12 Suicide Jumps 13 15 Push Up Jacks 22 25 Low Plank Obliques 40 65 Progress on all thankfully, wasn't really fired up so worried I'd do worse and scored on a blank sheet - was pleased to see…

Excellent job lu123:bigsmile: Well it's official, I am insane!!! I had a friend round last night, we finally finished chatting at 03.45am, and on consideration of the kids being awake in a few hours and that I'd have to get up at 6am to do my workout after a couple of hours sleep I decided to get changed and do the pure…

Talking about eating naughty things, I was craving something sweet yesterday. Nearly had a small bag of Haribo's, figuring the fat content was negligible.....until I checked out the calories and realised at 300 cals for a handful of sweets they were equivalent to one meal. I dropped them so fast you'd have thought they…

Big hugs LU123:flowerforyou: , hope you manage to find someway to keep the momentum going. Just want to register how much I hate the drills, ab crunch thingys, and in out thingys on Plyo, was in a heap on the floor this morning. Made the mistake of having my protein drink with my eve meal yeasterday, and even though only a…

Wow great effort HurrcaneShaunn, you go girl!!! God luck with the exams LU123. I've realy struggled all weekend and yesterday, I was absolutely exhausted and really grouchy. I was so tired last night that I had a quick protein shake as I went to bed, and wow what a difference. Even tho my littl'un was poorly last night and…

Hope you're feeling better LU123 :flowerforyou: Feeling quite wiped out, tho not sure I'm getting enough sleep. My youngest was poorly last night so ended up in our bed which is extremely rare, still woke at 5 ut snoozed a little before embarking on the workout. Did ok though, am amazed that I can actually do press ups…

Cardio Plyo really wipes me out - too much work in close proximity to the floor - way too tempting to collapse in a heap on the floor when the energy levels are starting to dip. Scales have told me I've lost another 1% body fat - so that's 2% in this first week (not sure how accurate the scales measurement is), though I'm…

Totally agree with your comments LU123, and 1/2 an inch is pretty impressive - now where did I put that tape measure lol. Pure Cardio - phew, 30mins with no respite, but as usual the time flew by. I love the way that no matter how fit the guys on the dvd look - they are all out of breath and having a hard time, even Shaun…

Morning all.... Boy, was I glad for a recovery day today - though I actually found some of the exercises harder - much more muscle burn tho was nice not to be panting throughout the workout LOL. Enjoyed the yoga stretching, and my 8 year old even joined in, bless her!! Managing to maintain my weight, which I'm pleased…

Good job guys!! :smile: Found myself waking up at 5am this morning, so got up and my Cardio Resistance - pure evil!!! But in a good way. Love the way the 40 mins just flies by with all the circuits, just when you think you've nothing left to give, a quick drink, and bam - you're doing it all over again but faster!! Wasn't…

Thanks lu123, here's hoping I'll adjust :happy: As for the red face :explode: , just show's you were working hard enough - well done...and I can feel the soreness sneaking up on me as the day goes on. Hope you're not too sore. x

Well done to everyone for the fit test results yesterday, we're on our way!!! I got up at 6am again today and did the Plyo Circuits - O......MG!!! Had to stop several times, but tried to push on through as soon as I could and get back into it. Not sure what I can do to get my energy levels up first thing :yawn: , it's the…

Day one and still alive. Took pics and measurements last night. Got up at silly o'clock this morning to do the fit test, managed as follows: Switch Kicks 58 Power Jacks 60 Power Knees 82 Power Jumps 30 Globe Jumps 10 Suicide Jumps 13 Push Up Jacks 22 Low Plank Obliques 40 Looking forward to a workout tomorrow, hoping won't…

Hi, I'm starting Insanity tomorrow. Definitely wouldn't describe myself as fit, so a little apprehensive now, but really stubborn and tenatious and love a challenge. Hopefully that will spur me on, along with this forum. Kicked off the eating regime this morning with a yoghurt bowl and protein powder, never used protein…
