Nicely done Pam. Looks like you got a good workout in. And isn't it fantastic to have our dh's be proud of us. Mine has been saying similar things lately, and is so supportive on the time I need to do this, and dvd purchases etc. Yeah for us!

Sounds like a lot of us had today as a day off, or low key workout day. Holidays can be a challenge.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow, and my usual routine kicking back into gear. My kids are home from my MIL's, I've unpacked from my trip, and I did a big grocery shopping. My fridge is full of fresh veggies again.

Hope you all had a good day.

Laura

Hi Ladies!
Just reading about everybody's awesome work so far this week.
I did not exercise this morning, since I am taking it easy for my foot this week and avoiding weight bearing exercise (except for my 30 minutes with trainer tonight) in hopes of having my foot good as new to start running again very soon. My plan for tonight is 45 minutes cardio, 30 minutes legs with trainer and then yoga class!
I'm so excited for yoga...even if I don't love the teacher or style, I haven't done yoga in so long!
My highlight of the weekend was going shopping, trying on, and fitting into a dress that was smaller than I've ever been! The style was very forgiving of the fact that my backside is a different size than my waist, but I was just happy to be able to get it on!
I mean, I started shopping plus sizes when I started high school! I literally can't remember ever wearing a size 12...seems like even my middle school clothes were bigger than that!
I'll check in later, after I've worked out.

Tori

Way to go Tori!!! If you don't mind me asking, how many pounds/inches have you lost since starting bootcamp?

Kat: I hate to be a downer but I'm backing out of bootcamp - I'm not quitting, but I'll be keeping up with my workouts - after all these weeks I still am having trouble juggling everything, I feel like I'm being pulled apart, then throwing in a sick child who refuses to sleep, childcare issues, and beginning a new job in 2 weeks - too many curveballs were lobbed at me to keep up - plus I know I won't do the yoga requirements. I think I'll continue on my own for now and wish the remaining bootcampers nothing but success. Everyone is doing an awesome job!

I just recently found that video, too, right before I went out of town. It actually looks really good!

We'll miss you. Hopefully this is just a rough patch that will end faily quickly. Come back if you can!

Shelly ~ I'd love to hear how you've done at the end of the 90 days. Please post your final results. Good luck with the new job, and I hope the little one feels better soon.

I didn't take new measurements when I started boot camp (or if I did, I can't find them!)
But from my last recorded ones on Spark People (which were the end of February) I've lost 3.5" on my waist, 2" on my hips, and 1" on my neck. For some reason, I didn't track bust (probably because it's not an area where I am especially keen to lose) and I haven't tracked lower belly (which is one area where the loss has been noticeable, IMO)
And I think it's 10 lbs since the start of bootcamp. (I weigh with my trainer this afternoon, so we'll see how that goes!)
Looking at the numbers, it honestly doesn't seem like that much to me, but I am definitely a believer in "how ever long it takes."
The photo album on my spark page (link in my signature) has pictures from earlier this year compared to pics from 4/22. I will update the pictures on 5/22 in the same outfit so I can keep a monthly record of my progress.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: 10 pounds in 5 weeks is a LOT of weight to lose, and the rate is excellent. Over the course of a year, at that rate, it would be 100 pounds. There are plenty of people who would pay GOOD money to lose 100 pounds in a year...

Done my workouts for today!

WTG on the weight loss toriamae!! My weight loss has slowed down the last couple of weeks, it's stayed the same which is good. Just not putting everything into the diet, hmph really need to get focused.

Congrats to all you ladies on your success! And good luck Shelly keep us updated! Yesterday i didn't work out. But today i plan on doing double! And i ate all my veggies this weekend.

AM: 40min Denise Austin SFFZ
25min Interval Circuit Training

Then i plan on doing Hip Hop Abs with my mom (SHE IS IN LOVE WITH IT!!! Its Hilarious! But to be honest she's turning 60 this year and is in as good of shape if not better than I AM! I only hope to be as active and strong as she is at her age! So she is definately my role model!), some Taebo and some Yoga.

How do you know when you are ready to move to level 2 in Shred?

Oh and i was soooooo excited b/c on saturday i put on a jacket and some pants and i could actually buttom them up compared to just 2 weeks ago! Even though the scale isn't reflecting the fat loss i'm not discouraged b/c i know i'm losing fat and gaining muscle!!! YAY!!!

Hey Ladies!

FairLady: congrats on the better fitting clothes! Fun, isn't it.

My AM workout today:
25 mins jogging/walking recovery on the treadmill (my jogging time is increasing)
30 mins of abs and upper body mat exercises

PM Workout Plan:
Cardio Max
Circuit training - frontside

I'm thinking of maybe trying Shred Level 2 tomorrow. Level 1 isn't super easy or anything yet (you should see me huff, puff and sweat). But I'm ready for a bit of variety. So, maybe I'll give it a whirl. I really do need to add a new dvd or two to my mix. I love what I have, but want a few more options. But there are SOOOO many choices out there. Which one to pick? LOL.

Shred 1 isn't super easy for me, either (but part of that is because I do cardio max first).

But I've been wanting to try Shred 2, too.

Experiment with different size weights, and maybe the modified versions of the exercises.

NatalieLucy, I'll clear out my pm box now.
