BTW - did I tell you guys about Splenda with fiber?

I put a lot of Splenda in my coffee so I thought I'd try the extra fiber - I really think it's helping - I'll let you know when I get weighed again!

oh this is great! i need some motivation for sure.

 

Try this in the morning and kick-start your metabolism to give you some early morning energy. Before showering try:

 

50 step lunges

50 calf-raises

20 push-ups

30 sit-ups

touch your toes 20 times

 

If repeated everyday, you will feel the difference within two weeks.

I'm going to give this a try- I'm more of an evening work out person but if I can work this in plus a work out at night I should be doing pretty well! FI and I have been putting together an exercise room at home- we bought an elliptical second hand, and some free weights and he just put together the weight bench we bought this weekend. I hope that having this space at home will keep me motivated- we'll see! Now that Thanksgiving is over I really have to take a look at how we're eating too- keep those food tips coming please ladies!

I live by this site now. Not that I have to worry about how much food I eat, cause I don't (crohn's has made me suffer with food) but it has really made me realize, what I eat. It may help you, just track the foods you've eaten. Someone on here posted it.

Wow, 6 months, seems like it's so far away...but we all know it's RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!! Thanks for the gentle reminder

Ok going to do triceps and elliptical today possibly some more just not sure what - Baby is in bed and I just ate 2 brownies ( sometimes I hate being a woman! lol

[caribbeanLover]

enjoy your work out!!

I'm more of an evening work out person. I will def do my work out this evening.

I'm already finding a little bit of a difference, anyone else?

Just joined Fit Day and think it's really going to help! Thanks for the link. I tried your recipe LDeeken - it's delicious! Not a fan of mushrooms so I left them out but it's still very filling. I'm going to try Midnight24's morning exercises this week - thanks everyone! There's nothing like sharing a common goal

Started back with weights Monday - did a leg work out and OMG am I sore!!!!

 

I thought I was looking pretty good till FI took pics of me in my halloween costume this weekend and I still look chunky in the gut and legs with a ton of cellulite. I wanted to lose another 12 pounds - I'm worried if I lose more i won't be able to keep it off but the pictures were awful to me!!! I'm seriously considering liposuction - I'm going to ask the weight dr on Friday.

[SuzyQ76]

OMG doesn't lipo take a huge amount of time to heal? and you don't even see the true results for after a year??

 

I have slacked this past week - but to my defense I've been sick and delirious, as well as the rest of the family!! So I've had minimal energy but still eating well, a little too well!!...I did try on my dress and could zip it up no problem! With room to spare!! YAY!! I could even spin it around to clip the little zipper hook thingy!!

 

But...my back and arms are what I really need to tone for my dress and my butt and thighs are what I really need to tone for my Bikini...if I make into one!!

 

I've been doing lunges and leg lifts but the process is sooooooo slow, I hope my metabolism kicks in soon and things start melting - Wish it was as easy as when I was 20 )

 

Jerseykitten - Let us know your decision once you talk to your weight Dr, I'll be interested in what you decide to do!!!
