I have this one http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00624867000P?prdNo=10&blockNo=10&blockType=L10 and i love it. It is pretty expensive, but there's a reason. It's very sturdy and durable. I live in Iowa also so I can understand. I ran in the 35 degree morning temperature the other day and it wasn't as bad as I…

thanks! bump

I appreciate all of the responses!! It's great to know people care to help me out :) I know I just need to motivate myself by knowing that I will be happier if I eat right and work out!! Also I'm going to look into maybe moving my treadmill to in front of my tv, but that's easier said then done as it's really heavy.

I would like to see others advice as I'm having the same problem!

bump i may do this

Almost every morning I make myself an egg mcmuffin and it really keeps me full and it tastes great so it's satisfying!! 1 Thomas Better Start Light English Muffin (multi-grain)...i really like this kind because it has 8 grams of fiber 1 oz of Hillshire Farm Lower Sodium Ham Slices 1/2 slice of american cheese 2 egg whites…

I don't remember there being an exact moment that did it for me. It just built up over time. Having to buy a size 12, and some places a size 14 jeans. Trying on my clothes and not liking how anything looks because of the weight in my stomach. Not being comfortable with myself in general...not happy with how I look. And…

GO HAWKEYES!!!!

I have decided to wait for this challenge until October. I need to get consistent with kettlebells again this month and then start the challenge. I just don't want to just jump into that many swings and end up getting hurt. Good luck to all of you!

Hey I may start this challenge with you ladies! What size of kettlebell are you going to work with for this challenge?

that sounds great!

Love #1...it's so true...

bump! this looks amazing!

I'm definitely at the same point girl! Sorry I don't have too much advice, but I'd like to see what others say.

Even though I haven't been posting lately I have kept up with the Kettlebell workouts. Usually 3 per week. I did 30 min of running this morning on the treadmill then 40 min of the Powerbody Kettlebell Bootcamp DVD. I planned on doing about 20 min more of the dvd, but I was really hungry from not eating much for dinner last…

Hey everyone! Of course I did my kettlebell routine again this morning and i'm loving it. I think I need to move up to a 10 pound kettlebell, but may stick with the 8 pound one until I want to spend the money on the 10 pound one. I'm just really focusing on concentrating on the muscles i'm working and doing every move with…

The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. Sweat is the cologne of accomplishment. If you don't focus on your *kitten*, no one else will. :) ....and the quote in my signature :)

I use a liter water bottle and I end up drinking a lot more then what's required. It's right by me at all times at work and at home. I think it's easier to drink your water if it's in a big water bottle. May be something you would like to try :) Yes you do need to drink more when working out because of sweating and your…

I did my Kettlebell routine again this morning. I'm thinking about moving from a 8 pound to a 10 pound kettlebell...so I may do that this week I'm not sure yet. I've been doing it every other day for about a month now. This week i'm doing it Monday (today), Wednesday, and Friday. I love the feeling of finishing the dvd I…
