I am starting my Tae Bo again and got a schedule for beginner, intermediate and Advanced off the FB page. Fitness Goals Workout Guide - Tae Bo Fitness, you could probably google it.

I've never heard of this! I'm excited to start something that works without driving me insane! I need to do some more research and go grocery shopping.

I will be starting this on Monday or Tuesday, as soon as it arrives!

Keep going, you look great! MFP has helped me so much. I'm also training for my first Figure Competition!

I'm in! I've been looking for a challenge to hold me accountable. I'm getting back into lifting and my goal is to lose some bf and regain my strength. Muscle has memory so I know this will happen if I'm consistent, which is where I've been lacking!

Awesome to hear!!! How long did it take for you to notice your body changing while eating with those numbers? And were you perfect every single time? My problem is weekends. Im going on week #2 of eating my macros. I feel better, but still looking for the changes. [/quote] I noticed within a couple weeks. No, I'm not…

I'm also cutting using macros. Currently 155.8 g protein; 155.8 g carbs; 34.6g fat. I lift 4-5x a week and fit in cardio 2-3x which is usually 30-45 min of kickboxing or 45 min on the treadmill. I've noticed more changes in the way my body looks than I've seen on the scale, but that is going down too, just slowly, which is…

This group is awesome!

I had a loss!!! So excited! But I can't access the spreadsheet either, it says I need to log in. I'll try tomorrow.

I went backwards! Time to focus and get my head in this! Good job everyone!

I had a very busy but fun weekend celebrating my daughters 18th birthday out of town. It was nice to get away but partying with that many people all weekend I kind of planned a splurge weekend so I'm happy to be back on track today. I have major damage control to do this week so I started off with a nice bowl of oats and…

Hi, I'm Tamra from Oregon. I'd like to lose 16 by the end of December. Being part of this group will help me stay on the straight and narrow through the holidays, with a splurge here and there instead of one big splurge from Thanksgiving thru Christmas!!

Good to know! I'll be doing this tonight. I need to get up earlier so I can get this done before work. I just hate to wake up, no matter what time it is! LOL I do feel better starting my day with a workout so my mini-mini goal is to do the full body tomorrow morning... I can do this... I can do this.....

I'm going to give this a shot. Starting tonight after work. Feel free to add me, we'll get through this together!

161.0 this morning, that's only down .2 but considering the week I've had, I'll take it! Have a great, fun and productive weekend everyone!

I'm also joining late. What great motivation! I'll be weighing in on Friday's CW: 161.2 GW: 146

I did the 30 day shred in April and loved it. I'm starting today! Is there and actual "group" I could join or are do we just post here?

I'm not going to hit my goal either. I don't know what I blame other than myself and my lack of planning! Still heading in the right direction though and every little bit helps! This group has been awesome for keeping me on track. If I didn't have weekly weigh in's I probably would have crawled up the scale instead of down.

Thanks for this!!!! Seriously, I usually start on the 1st otherwise I lose track. LOL too many other things going on, like life! :flowerforyou:

I thought I maintained so I was pleasantly surprised to realize it was down .5! I'm going to try my best to maintain over the weekend, we have my granson's 1st birthday party and, well, I LOVE cake!

I'm down 1.5 this week! I have to work tomorrow :huh: The weather is suppose to be cloudy so at least I'm not missing a day in the sun! Hopefully it's not a full 8 hours, I can still get in some gym time!

Hi, I'm Tamra, and new to StrongLifts as well. Today will be my first day. Kris and I were in the same "Ripped in 30" group so it's great to see someone with the same "lifting" bug. A little about myself. I use to compete in Olympic Power Lifting WAAAAY back in the day (1998-99) then sadly my trainer, the only one in town…

I'm starting tomorrow. I've done this program once and I saw fantastic results. So I thought I'd do it again! Feel free to add me.

I'm down .2 which is not much at all, however, I was up earlier this week so I was hoping for a maintain, at most, I'm glad it came off. I have been working long hours and not able to get a daily workout in, it's really messing with my mental state! My goal for this coming week is to get in some form of exercise everyday!

I started 30-Day Shred this morning! I'm not sure what I didn't like about Ripped in 30, I just felt like I was all over the place and I hated every workout! LOL I will try it again after this month and see if I feel any different. I'm pretty strong and can do the exercises, I just thought some were a little too out there…

I'm down .8, almost a pound. Still going in the right direction so I'll take it! It's suppose to be beautiful all weekend so I'm hoping to finally get in that hike!

I haven't started yet. I plan on June 2nd. Muscle has memory so I'm excited to see how fast it'll come back! I love strength training. I am a firm believer in the benefits, especially as we age, just how important it is.

I just joined the Stronlifts 5x5 too! I use to compete in Powerlifting years ago and I never felt better. My body was so strong. When I found this program I was so excited!

I love the Weird-In, it's fitting for me this week. I am happy to have maintained because I'm trying to repair my metabolism and that requires me to up my calories which has me freaking out a bit. So far so good. I guess trying to lose weight while I do this is looking for major mental abuse because of my love/hate…

I have been feeling like hell this week so I pretty much fell way behind! I can't exert myself for I go into a coughing fit. So when my throat isn’t killing me I’ve tried doing the treadmill. I will be starting week 3 over either Sunday or Monday. Looks like Ripped in 30 has turned into Ripped in 40 for me! Have a great…
