Where are the Jazzercisers?
Hey all Jazzy ladies (and gents) out there! I'd love to connect with you! Send me a friend request. I absolutely LOVE Jazzercise. I joined in February this year and then two weeks after joining, I fell down a flight of stairs and broke my tailbone (OUCH!) I was out for 6 weeks. When I came back, I really appreciated being…

When do you buy a whole new wardrobe?
I've currently lost 28 pounds, but I still have 54 to go. My body is changing, clothes are getting baggy and it's always nice to feel rewarded by showing off the new body with some new duds! All of that being said, I'm not much of a spender or a shopper! When did you buy a whole new wardrobe? **I'm also trying to be super…

Increase lifting weight?
Ok, let me start by saying I'm not lifting-lifting. I know, I know I need to get over the self esteem issues with being a girl and lifting weights in a gym...sigh. What I am doing is using 6 pound hand weights. I've been on 6 pounds for a few weeks now and things are definitely getting easy when working certain muscle…

Coffee additions?
Coffee drinker here! Question for all you other coffee drinkers out there: which coffee addition is the WORST for you to add? Sugar, no-cal sweetener or cream/milk/half and half? I get that a double tall super double chunk mocha-chocolatte, extra whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top beverage is BAD for you. That's…

More exercise?
Currently I'm working out for an hour, 6 days a week. About 30-35 minutes of cardio and the rest of the time is comprised of strength training (weights), yoga and floor work. On my rest day I typically try to do something to "busy" myself...cleaning, gardening, walking around the mall...whatever. BUT, I have a job where I…

EXACTLY the OPPOSITE of everything I thought I knew?
http://www.dangerouslyhardcore.com/5343/why-women-should-not-run/ So, I'm curious to start a conversation on this article. It essentially states that intense cardio (like running) is actually DAMAGING to fat and weight loss. As a novice runner...trainer...cardio-warrior and weight loser, I'm trying to be super sensitive of…

Will I ever be able to drink too much and eat junk again?
I know, I know...that's what got me into this mess I'm in now. Years and years of over-indulging and eating crap. I know, I'm an "adult" now and I can't treat my body the same way I did when I was in college... Man I miss those days though! I miss being able to drink what I wanted and eat what I wanted and then sleep it…

Am I doing enough?
Ok: I'm 5'4", 219 lbs, 31 years old, female. (Wow, that was easier than I thought?) My schedule for the last three weeks: My daily calorie allowance is 1530 and I'm doing Jazzercise 5 days a week (for an hour) and then jogging or walking for at least 60 minutes a day 4-5 days a week. On my "off" days, I try to do yard work…

Here I go again!
I've done this before, tracked my calories...exercised...lost a bit of weight...got super motivated...started to fit better in my clothing...etc, etc, etc. Then something goes haywire! I get too busy, I get stressed, I miss a workout for a day and then another day and then a week. Before I know it I'm back to where I…
