is it better to get with or without the chest strap??

I log it as circuit training, general as well.

I asked the same thing this morning :) I think I'm leaning towards the hrm.

I put some Special K in the food processor and coated the chicken and baked for 20 minutes, it came out very tender and just yummy!!! Had Broccoli and a salad to go with it :)

I'm right handed... my right side seems stronger and I can see definition more in my right arm. I carry my kids on my right hip too, always have. I need to try and switch sides carrying them!! lol.

I went for the nice guy! Together for 9yrs, married for 7 with two handsome boys :)

Not really but.... I lost 46lbs and I have two kids - a 6yr old who weighs 52lbs and a 3yr old who weighs 32lbs. I have carried them sleeping to their beds (one at a time!!) up 15 steps. Let me tell ya my 52 pound child is heavy!!! I am winded when I get to the top of the steps!!!

THE BLACK BEAN BROWNIES TASTE YUMMY!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!

that is water weight. Salt makes you retain water. Drink plenty of water today and it will go away.

Steamed broccoli, sugar snap peas (steamed or raw) & tomatoes.

I keep a variety pack of Quakers Weight Control oatmeal in my desk drawer. Every Monday I bring some skim milk in, I like to pour milk over my oatmeal. I also keep some paper bowls and spoons in my drawer too, easy clean up :) Then I bring a snack and lunch.

I have the Reebok ones, they actually tone anything but they are very comfortable!! I did buy another pair when my first ones had seen better days but that's because they are really comfy.

I like level 1 & 2, its level 3 that I HATE!!!! It is very hard!!! I havent quite done all 10 days w/level 3. I kinda stop around day 6-7 and move on to something else. I just started 30DS again yesterday (its been 6mos since I did it last) and I am determined I will finish all 3 levels!!

I only cook one meal as well. I have my hubby, 3yr old boy and a 6yr old boy. My 6yr old is VERY picky but the other two will eat what I put in front of them. My 6yr old is learning eat your dinner or go hungry. If they insist on eating something unhealthy I will let them and I'll have a salad.

I did ChaLean Extreme for 60 days. I got sick and never finished the last phase. But i loved it!!! I didnt loose hardly any weight but I lost in inches. My strength and endurance definitely increased!!! My pictures are at home and I'm at work so cant post them so you can see right now. If I remember I will do that when I…

That's why I just had some chinese for lunch. I didnt go over board like I used to. The local chinese restaurant by my job has a buffet at lunch and you can get it to go, they charge by the pound. I just got a lil beef n broccoli, fried rice and crab rangoon. It only came to $4 so I must have done good! Plus i dont feel…

yes!! I gave it up 2 weeks ago. Yes it you quit soda cold turkey you will get headaches, its "caffeine withdraw". I weaned myself off of soda. Those lil 7oz soda cans work great for that. I'd do one 12oz a day for a week, then for a few days do one 7oz can. I didnt have any headaches.

I am 5'6 and 130lbs. I wear a 6 right now at Old Navy and NY&Co, but an 8 at American Eagle. I do remember back in high school I was 108lbs and 5'6 and wore a 7. I am 22lbs heavier than i was in high school but I wear the same size??? So sizes have def changed!!!! I actually kept a pair of jean from high school just…

I tried it for breakfast after I had my son to start my diet. It worked but as soon as you start eating a normal breakfast again I gained a few pounds. All it really does it starve you. And its loaded w/sugar.

hmm.... Thins Mints are the best!!!!! My hubby loves the Tagalongs. There are 4 cookies in a serving of Thin Mints, but really who wants to stop at 4 when you can easily eat a whole sleeve??? LOL. I was good though. I got 3 boxes of Thin Mints and 3 of the Tagalongs. 2 boxes of each went in the freezer. They freeze very…

I get on the scale everyday, I just have to. I need to know if I did something wrong or right the day before. Yesterday mine read 131, today 133. I had McDonalds w/my 3yr old son yesterday and all the sodium in fast food, the fat and grease is probably why the scale moved. But I'm back to my oatmeal for breakfast, salad…

Try PediaSure or PediaLyte. That is what I give my kids when they are sick and refuse to eat. The PediaSure is in the baby aisle, its just like Ensure that adults use. Gatorade does taste better than the PediaLyte just FYI. Good luck, I hope he feels better soon!!!

No more Pepsi or soda of any kind. I actually started that Monday and I am really missing my morning Pepsi :( I've done it before and kept it up for 4 years, i can do this!!!

American Eagle- original bootcut style and Old Navy- flirt. Love both of them!!

The sodium is high but not as high as say Marie Calendars or Stouffers. I eat one for lunch Mon-Fri at work and just drink plenty of water all day. I like the WW Smart Ones as well. I go back and forth depending on what is on sale and for different variety. At first they werent filling enough but I think my body is used to…

Fiber!! fiber one bars, brownies and ceral are good. I use ground flax seed to help w/my female problems but its good for tons of issues! I did notice that it made me very regular!!! Its good for your heart too :)

Which Jillian Michaels did you use? I have lost my baby weight but want to tighten my belly, I have had 2 csections. You look amazing btw!!!

That does put it in perspective!!! I have lost 47lbs, my 6yr old son weighs 51lbs so I lost almost what he weighs. He is very heavy when I carry him. I recently had to carry him across the hospital parking lot to the er when he was sick and I was winded by the time I got in there! Hmmm....... makes you think. Great job on…
