Pretty hair color!

Art crowd

Exactly...and the same could be said for the guys who never break a sweat but stand around with their hair gelled and chains sparkling. The ones who don't even notice anyone else is around because they are too busy sweating ,caught up in the workout - those are the hot ones!

I don't know if it's necessarily about being judgmental...it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me to take the time and effort to do hair and makeup just to workout. A lot of the times I show up to the gym with makeup on because I come straight from work, but it sure doesn't stay there long because I'm sweating it all off…

Nice back

The arms!

Nice eyes

You know, anything in moderation. Coffee itself isn't bad for you, and recent studies (god I sound like an infomercial lol) have shown that it has some decent benefits, including lowering your risk for diabetes and heart disease if you drink around 4 cups a day. I just heard that on the news last week and told my hubby,…

I just purchased this one, and I loooove it! The reviews on it were fantastic and it was very reasonably priced. I honestly can't say if it does body fat or not, I always thought a bathroom scale just did your weight :) I have tested it out by weighing myself both morning and night, and it does register the miniscule…

Yes! I think that's what this thread should be called!! :) It's the same for me, I have about 15 to go....I was doing great for awhile, lost about 5 lbs and then these last two weeks I have really lost motivation. I love the idea of this thread!

Green Tea!!! I'm trying to cut out soda and drink more water, this takes care of both! It really helps me feel less thirsty and so, fuller. Plus, they claim if drink 2-3 glasses a day you can burn about 80 calories more in day and every little bit helps!

Hello!! I can tell you that after a few years of on and off trying to lose weight with no real motivation, this site has helped A LOT! Welcome and best of luck!

Hello!! I'm in exactly the same place you are. Welcome back and good luck!

Hi Buddies! We did a lot of upper body stuff tonight in class, and we did jump rope for cardio...I never realized how incredibly BAD I am at jump roping!!:laugh: I haven't done it since I was little, but it was pretty embarrasing for a dance team girl! ( I spent more time trying to untangle it then actually jumping, but I…

This is an off day for me from my PT class, so I walked a little and did some ab work. I just have to share this new ab exercise I learned with you all! (It's very possible that its only new to me, but bear with me!) - Lay on your back with your arms over your head - Either grab onto some heavy free weights if you have…

Hi Fitness Buddies!! It was really nice here today so I made myself get outside and walk. I did 28 blocks in about 30 minutes. It felt sooo good!!! And it burned 222 calories according to the exerise tracker! I'm also going to my Physical Transformation class tonight where I expect we'll do a little cardio and a lot of…

Welcome to all the new people!! I haven't been on the last few days because I haven't been out of bed!!! I have one of those colds that stays up in your head and makes your face hurt:sad: My throat is sore, thats the worst part, and I've had so much Sudafed in me the last few days I don't think I'm safe to operate an…

I haven't logged on in few days, whoops! :tongue: But I have been working out! I started a new class called Physical Transformation that is really intense. It's a blend of cardio and strength training 3 times a week and its kicking my butt. Tonight I did 5 min each of: jump roping, aerobic stair-stepping, kicks on a bosu…

With a name like "ab ripper" you'd think it would be super intense:tongue: I did 100 cruches, some upper arm and shoulder stuff and some lunges and squats, and of course the Flirty Girl!! For those of you who were wondering, it is kind of like a porno gone wrong, lol. It's a striptease workout that I highly reccomend doing…

Hell to all new and old! I've been out of town for the last few days (I got laid off and now have Waaay too much free time on my hands:cry: ) but I've been doing a lot of situps and pushups in my room at night. I just got the FlirtGirl fitness DVDs...I saw the commerical so darn much I just had to :P and I really like it!…

Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone had some recipes for really delicious salads...I apologize if there is a post on this already somewhere, but I looked back over a few pages and didn't see one...really didn't want to hunt through hundreds of topics!! Anyway, I feel I need a better way to eat vegetables and leafy…

Great job Sanifrey!!! I know it sure motivates me to see other people actually achieving results. I went to the Y today and did 20 minutes on the treadmill and 30 minutes in the pool. I think I really like lap swim, I may do that more often. Have a great day! :glasses:

I did a 20 minute Pilates workout today and some Taebo!! Haven't done Taebo in years, it was fun! Although...does anyone know how many calories ol Billy Blanks actually helps you burn? I didn't seem to have to work very hard. Keep at it!!

I know exactly how you feel. My fiance and I did the long distance thing for 3 years and finally moved in together to go to school. I figured we had paid our dues and could put the distance thing behind us, but now he won't finish school until May and I just graduated and had to take a job, guess what...3 hours away!! Just…

Ahhh! A friend's birthday party and a bachelorette party one night after the other does not help me stay on target with eating!! I didn't even log my food the last few nights because I know I would be sooo over the limit:tongue: I'm back to being good now though. I went to my body sculpting class last night and we did a…

I just did... 12 pushups (regular kind!) 30 ab curls and 30 crunches 90 jumping jacks 20 regular lunges 20 side lunges 20 over-the-barrel lunges 40 jumping jacks jogged in place for 3 minutes 30 reverse crunches 40 jumping jacks 1 minute of warm up sprints 1 min of biceps curls and tricep kick-backs with fitness bungees 40…

Hello Fitness Buddies!!! I was off visiting the future in-laws for the weekend, but now I'm back in the game! It was tough, cause the mom always wants to cook like crazy when we come to visit, but now I'm back to a normal college-student diet (read: light!) so I hope I can even it out. I am going to try Nicolets workout…

Nope, no weigh in!! Just check in with what you've done exercise-wise: what worked for you, what didn't, what you feel good about, maybe how you've missed a day or two :tongue: It's whatever you feel like saying and whatever keeps you motivated. Welcome! And Nicolet...that workout may just kill me, but I'm in!

I can honestly see both sides...hence the problem! I think my real issue is that the classes I go to aren't at a gym, they are free fitness classes on a drop in basis...good for the wallet, bad for the motivation!! Maybe I should get a gym membership and do the vids at home when I can't bring myself to go out...cause it…
