I have lost 50+ and I did slowly. Almost 2 years now. (not by choice, stupid thyroid!) My skin hasnt not tightened back simulataneously with the loss, but looking at pictures I can see that it is tightening at its own pace. I read a medical article that said skin will regain most of its natural elasticity but it can take…

He was honest with you, and didnt hide it. THAT is at least something.

Pole Dancer. The first time I spotted her was in ZUMBA. She reminds me of one of those Hawaiian hula dolls that are on car dash boards. Her hips seem to move independent from the rest of her body... I swear some people blush watching her dance ..

I LOVE ZUMBA. (haha inside joke to anyone who goes!) I tell members of my gym all the time to come give it a try. Also if you dont like the class you went to.. it could be the instructor, so try it more than once. Simple rule to follow: The fuller the class.. the better the instructor.. I am a front row girl.. and I tell…

I hassled my sister endlessly to lend me extremely expensive bicycle so I could try out Cycling. Then I hung it on a hook in the garage and still havent tried it out yet.

I use to consider my period week a rest week from exercise and sex. This made my man unhappy.. Now I workout to ease the cramps and he has renamed it BJ week. ;)

I do Zumba in addition to my other workouts not instead of. Zumba is so much stinking fun I don't think of it as my gym time. Of course it depends on your effort too.. I average 800-1100 calories with one particular teacher but only 600-800 with one that I am not as enthusiastic about. Just try doing both and see how you…

Soccer chairs, umbrella, bag of donation clothes I have forgotten to drop off for about 2 months now. (Out of sight, out of mind!)

I tell my friends that struggle during a breakup to get a notebook and write down 5 things every day they are grateful for. Example : 1. I can watch anything I want to watch on tv tonite. 2. I can flirt with the UPS guy today, you never know he might have just become single too... ETC ETC .. If you look for the negative,…

I have been taking Zumba for about a month and it is soo much fun. I made my best friend go with me and we just laugh at each other and have a ball. About three classes in I was standing next to my buddies waiting for the doors to open along with about 25 women. The crowd was extremely quiet right as I said "I do my best…

I leaned off the wagon yesterday and found myself dragging behind it. As soon as I realized it, I went to my food log and documented my Reeses indulgement. That was an eye opener and I was good again.

I choose to sleep 7 hours instead of 8 a few times a week and just make the workouts happen. Exercise gives me the energy and I don't feel deprived. On a time crunch, I run. It is instantly available and requires no set up time or equipment.. just pandora on my iphone and running shoes.

Theres a time and place for everything... Your time is NOW! Place depends on what YOU are comfortable with. I like topless beaches, and my oldest child is in the army, my youngest is in elementary.. I just dont take them with me. ;)

I use my smart phone to send myself reminders and for accountability. Additonally, I surround myself with people that have the same ideals and goals as I do. For instance, at work we were discussing second hand smoke. I realized that none of my friends smoke that I hang out with. When I was a smoker, years and years ago, I…

Pregnant women are radiant from the hormones, she has nature on her side! Be excited for her now and she will support you. Later she will be excited for your awesomeness and need support for her weight loss journey. :)

THIS!!!! I didnt use to like to exercise, I did not make time for it and when I did exercise I only made a weak effort. You get out of it what you put in it. Weight loss by dieting alone is a slow process, it is possible but not recommended, especially if it is not a health issue, but a time management one. I went to bed…

Great article, thanks for sharing!

L1D4 completed. Followed by L2D1 attempted. I got about 12 min in when I remembered I have bootcamp tomorrow and I don't want to be sore. The only problem I have w/L1 is boy pushups. I can't do but a few and accepting modified just doesn't do it for me! I wanted my upper body to be stronger before moving on, however I am…

I started this last night. I only have 5lb plate weights and they eventually got heavy and uncomfortable to handle. I intend to go buy some hand weights this week. I began day one on LEVEL 1. While I did not find this workout easy I did not feel it was extremely challenging either. However, I will not jump to Level 2 yet…

The difference here is my co-worker ASKED me to help. She ASKED me to remind her daily, to check in with her, and to call her out if she was messing up. Then in the middle she just stopped and made excuses to eat and be "Squishy". And not just today, she eats that way every single day, then texts me and tells me she didnt…

Okkay, so clearly the Nay Sayers just keep popping up and now I am a bad guy. NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS SKINNY FEELS!! I believe that. I dont think there is any food that can make me FEEL as good as liking the way I look. PERIOD. To ME this statement says that I dont rely on food to be happy. I dont rely on food to provide…

For those that think I was "snarky" - As dispatchers that work in a high stress closed enviroment we are all "Type A" personalities. No harm No foul. Also some background on that comment, we debated it weeks ago, along with "Better than sex Cake" and the validity of those statements. It was a rowdy discussion about whether…
