I say the serving portions. Cereal never leaves me full. Fruit and yogurt fills up my Ikea bowls much better!
-
Fantastic job! I can totally see a huge difference! You are brave and an inspiration!
-
That's incredible! What a difference in 14 days! You should be so proud of yourself. I have 5 days left to go on 30DS and can't wait to redo my measurements and pictures to see if there is a difference! Can't wait to see how you look at the end of it!
-
That's a great and realistic goal! You can do it!!

Vodka goes well with Fresca, or I like raspberry vodka with club soda. They are both very low calorie, and nice and light.
-
If you want accurate then you need to invest in a heart rate monitor. Once I did I was shocked at how much MFP actually overestimates the calories burned.

5 Days to go!!! Can't wait to post inches and weight changes! I ordered Ripped in 30 to move onto next- if I see this much change in 30 workouts why not stick with Jillian right?
-
Awesome job! Looking great so far! You keep up at this pace and you'll be smokin' hot on your vacation!
-
Thanks for the input eveyone! I just placed an order on Amazon for Ripped in 30! So once I complete 30 DS it should be here and I'll be ready to go!
-
I'm a little behind too...I just did L3D3 this morning. But I will see it through and finish! Then when thats done I plan to alternate some 30DS with her Burn Fat Boost Metabolism DVD for awhile before I decide what's next!

I'm in Alberta....so not too far away really! Feel free to add me as a friend. I always love to have people who can I can help encourage and motivate!

We have both the Wii Fit and the Kinect. I personally like the Wii Fit better, there are some good games to give you some exercise but I didn't tone up or lose much until I switched to workouts with more cardio and strength training
-
You can feel free to add me, I am Mom to 2 beautiful kids (2 1/2 and 11 months) and my pregnancies have left me with about 50 lbs to lose.
-
I'm also working on losing 50 lbs of post baby weight. Feel free to friend me! My son is 11 months old now...and last week someone asked me when my baby was due :(
-
You have a lot on your plate right now! As tough as it might be, you have to put your own well being first- so that you have the strentgh and energy to be there for your kids. Start making one healthy choice at a time...you'll feel better, and feel like you are taking control again!

I was having the same problem until this week. Finally this week the scale has started to budge, and the only thing I've done differently is increase my water intake. Once I started drinking 10 glasses of water per day, the scale started to move. That and I increased my exercise to 30 min at least 5 times a week, but I try…

People are *kitten*! Sounds to me like she is a little jealous and bitter that you have the motivation to change your lifestyle and your body for the better. If it makes you feel any better some lady asked me yesterday when my baby is due :explode:
-
Awesome job! What a great start to your journey. It makes it a lot easier to stay motivated and commited when the scale starts to move! I did Taebo after Baby 1 and it's a lot of fun...it's just a little longer than I have time for now that Baby 2 is getting mobile.
-
Feel free to add me, I have about 40-50 lbs to lose and I'm pretty motivated to do it! I'd be happy to help you stay commited and focused.

It's an exercise video that cycles through 3 minutes of strength training, 2 mins of cardio and 1 min of abd for 3 circuits. I'm only half way through it and I've lost more than 2 inches off my waist.
-
L2D8 done! I'll do day 9 tommorow...and then I'm off to the wilderness for 5 days of camping and hiking. I will not be taking Jillian with me...so I'll save L2D10 for my first day back before I progress to level 3. I'm starting to see the scale budge! And I took halfway measurements and hips, waist and chest are…

I really like Jillian Michaels Yoga Burn. I get the relaxed, stretched feeling post yoga, but with a little extra insensity to it.
-
Congratulations! How did you lose so much so quickly? I've been here almost 60 days and I've lost 5? I'd love any tips!
-
L2D7 done. And I still hate chair squats and V raises...but I can do more of them now. Have any of you put any thought into what you'll do when this is done? I'm looking for another workout to do...any ideas would be helpful. Kimtp...sorry for your loss, and I'm sorry to hear about what happened to your dog. All the best…

Welcome! My story is similar to yours I quit smoking, had a baby, joined WW- lost some, got pregnant again. Now my kids are 11 months, and 2 1/2 and I have 50 lbs to lose. Supportive friends really help on those days where the scale hasn't budged and you're ready to go get a Big Mac meal because nothing is working anyways.…
-
I'm a big fan of the Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. It gets results, and one of the trainers modifies the exercises for beginners.
-
L2D5 done. I can't tell you how much I HATE chair squats and V raises. But everytime I hesitate to go do the workout, I read through these posts and you all motivate me to get my butt off the chair and right in front of Jillian. Thanks to you all! Half way there and I know that I'll be able to finish it now!
-
I would also recommend a HRM. I finally bought one and when I did I was SHOCKED at the difference between the estimated calorie burn on MFP and what my actual calorie burn according to my HRM.

Your body gets the shakes when your blood sugar level drops too low, for me it happens right around 4.0, which is low normal blood glucose. If you can, add in a mid morning snack of a fruit and carbohydrate to help maintain your blood sugar and insulin levels until lunch time

When I asked the same thing someone directed me to this website: http://www.zumbacalories.com/ It helps calculate what you burn!
