@dkwi04 maybe try upping your weights for the workouts? Might break your plateau.

I am somewhat of a Beach Body junkie. I have: 21 Day Fix Les Mills Pump Piyo Brazil Butt Lift Turbo Fire Turbo Jam T25 So far, 21 Day Fix is my favorite! I love that all the workouts are only 30 minutes long. I also like how they focus on the nutrition and portion control in 21DF. I've never followed the nutrition guides…

@dkwi04 - maybe you need more fuel with adding in the running. Your body might be holding onto weight because you're not eating enough. Maybe try adding another green or red container like @SatiaRenee said. I hope you see a difference soon. Keep up the good work! You got this!

I'm sorry you feel that way, but just because YOU don't feel like someone else should be doing the program because YOU feel like they're fit enough or at a low enough weight doesn't mean that THEY feel the same about THEIR body. Maybe they've come a long way using programs like this and you should use their success as a…

Yesterday I skipped my workout due to a migraine that was making me nauseous. Today the scale was up about .5 but also TOM coming. I went with easy bland foods ysterday and didn't stick to the containers. Back at it today!

I just finished Lower Fix & I have to say that I loved it! It actually restored my energy and now I feel amazing!

I'm on round 1 day 3. I'm finding that I have sore muscles I didn't even know I had! I'm not new to lifting weights & working out, but man! I'm surprised at how tough these workouts are! The containers are actually much easier to use than I thought they would be. I started "officially" on Monday, but was starting to follow…

Just thought I'd share. I've been making my Shakeology with one purple container of frozen peaches (no sugar added) 1 green container of spinach a cup of almond milk and a scoop of Vanilla Shakeology. It is absolutely delicious. I blend it up in my magic bullet and it takes on the consistency of pudding. It's my favorite…

@dkwi04 I'd love to get your Crockpot Maple Dijon Chicken with Quinoa recipe. It sounds delicious!!

Can I still join? I love Piyo & I need some friends to help motivate me to get a workout in every day. Age 30 Weight 140 Goal weight 125 Biggest struggle: Time. I have a 15 month old daughter who keeps me very busy and a full time job. I'm not a morning person, but this is really the only time I have to myself. I want to…

We are doing dinner at home tonight. Can't wait for a table for 2 hours at any restaurant in town. Hubby is grilling some steaks and we will have shrimp cocktail with Alaskan shrimp my husband caught! We've been saving them for a special occasion. Oh, and I'm planning on a couple glasses of wine. I'll be sweating it out in…

Looks good to me! I'm also not a football fan and we haven't planned on going to any parties, so I'm safe for today too. I'll be going to the grocery store today to get lots of healthy foods for this week. I'm going to take this list with me.

My biggest NSV is NO SWEETS!!! I think it's been like 3 weeks since I've had sweets and I totally don't crave them anymore. I didn't even have dessert when we went out for my friends birthday last weekend! I used to be the person who NEVER turned down something sweet. I'm very proud of myself. Another one for me is getting…

lk27 - You seem so committed. Good job on the downsizing! You look fantastic in your profile picture! [/quote] Thanks, but this is my pre-pregnancy body. Only about 2 pounds from my ultimate goal. This is what I'm trying to get back to. It's my motivation picture. I've got about 13 more pounds to get back to this, and a…

The Thai food? Yes, very spicy!

I went to a Thai restaurant this weekend for my friend's birthday. I've never had Thai food and was not quite sure about the menu. I've got to say that I was pleasantly surprised with how good the food was and will definitely eat there again! ETA- One of the most talked about food items at this restaurant is coconut rice.…

This quote always keeps me grounded because I'm the type of person that likes instant gratification. I'm already on week 4 (since I started being committed to getting back in shape). I started noticing my results at about 2 weeks. Now others are starting to notice. My mom has commented on how good I'm doing and my husband…

This looks great! I'm planning on doing it tomorrow. W: none today. I have my niece over for a sleepover tonight S: breakfast, the usual N: 5 until dinner at my moms house, so 3 overall

I love water and drink at least 12 glasses per day! I've always been a big water drinker. I'm lucky that ever since I was a kid I never liked the taste of soda. I enjoy an Arnold palmer or alcoholic beverage, like wine or beer, every once in a while, but I'm water all the way! I carry around a 33 oz camelbak water bottle…

I usually eat 5-6 small meals per day. I usually go to bed hungry because I hate the feeling of a full belly when I lay down. W: Turbo Fire HIIT 15 & 20 N: 2 started the day good, then met a friend for lunch at Chili's (which I don't really even like) came home to log my food & found out that what I thought was a…

Thanks for the reminder of a HIIT workout! Sometimes I forget that you can get a good workout in a short amount of time! Today I did Turbo Fire HIIT 20 and felt so good I went ahead and did the Turbo Fire HIIT 15 too!
-
I have to admit that my nutrition has been off the last few days. I've had a really busy hard week and this next one coming up is going to be even harder. My husband is out of town for work, so I'll be working full time, acting as a single parent for the week and trying to find time to workout. I'm going to try to plan as…

I don't have a favorite plank, they're killer. We do one in Pilates called the airplane. You start out in a side plank on one elbow, then rotate forward with your other arm out, like an airplane until you are in a plank position facing the floor, still with one arm out, hold for 10 seconds and rotate back to side plank.…

I don't have a picture to post either. Lately I'm loving my smoothies! I do 100 calorie Greek yogurt, 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 2 cups spinach, 1/2 cup blueberries, 4 strawberries & 1 cup of water. So good, filling and keeps me going! Tonight for dinner, I'm having baked tilapia with cayenne pepper, steamed…

Is it possible that you have sore muscles that are holding onto water. Water weight will add up quite quickly. Sounds like you did great this week. Keep it up.

Right now I'm doing a no sweets challenge with my Saturday aerobics class. I'm focusing on getting lean protein, whole grains, fruits & veggies.

I'm going to do my measurements for Waist @ belly button Hips (muffin top) Butt (@ widest point) Right Thigh These are my trouble areas and the ones I want to improve on the most.

Hi! I'm so happy to be doing a group challenge again! It is really motivating for me to have to record my weight and progress with others! I'm just getting back into my healthy lifestyle and working out after having a beautiful baby girl 6 months ago! My how that time has gone so fast!! My goal is to workout at least 5…

Hi. My daughter is going to be 6 months next week. Where does the time go?!? I've just decided that enough is enough and it's time to get back in shape. I've made a promise to myself to wake up early, at 5:30 am, to go to the gym while my little one is still asleep and to get back home before my husband needs to leave for…

Glad I ran across this again. All of these are still true. Now that I'm trying to lose my baby weight I needed this motivation to start over hopefully for the last time!!
