    Insanity Monday 9/14

    I started W2 of Month2 today. MCC. This seems easier the even some of the first Month workouts, but that's just probably because the rest of the Month 2 workouts are so much harder (to me). Don't get me wrong I'm not saying it's EASY, just EASIER. ;) Marriane, WTG on the Fit Test. I'm...

    INSANE PARTY - Sun, 9/13

    Looks like Insanity is making hip opener workouts popular. I will be doing YogaLink Hip Helpers today. I hope it is as helpful for me as it was for Becky. Maria, Enjoy the start of Month 2 workouts. The first day is the toughest. It does get easier after that. Elena, I think the...

    Enf of Overeating, 2nd thread

    Okay so last night went really well and I'm pretty proud. I saw someone eating and caught myself thinking I should go get some food. I even felt my right leg starting to take a step. I quickly caught myself with an authoritive mental "Stop", planted my feet and took a moment to think if I was...

    Gaining Control (End of Overating): 2nd Thread

    I have a 40th bday party and then a 50th bday party tonight. Tomorrow, I have a retirement party and then a social club meeting, so this is going to be a challenging weekend for me. I'm still only about half way through the book and haven't read the solution ideas yet. However, based on some of...

    INSANE PARTY, Sat 9/12

    MIP, Wow that went pretty good overall. I really was able to get my heart rate up this time. I guess now that I'm more familiar with the moves I can concentrate on more speed and power. Elena, If they did a survey I'm sure 99% of woman under 70 would have something they didn't like about...

    INSANE PARTY, Sat 9/12

    Good Morning All, I'm off to do MIP in just a bit. I got hip helpers and did just a little bit of it yesterday. I'll see if it helps. :p I don't expect much since I only did the first 18 minutes of the workshop (the introduction of the moves). Elena, I don't know who Kim is, but I'd be...

    INSANE PARTY - TGIF, 9/11

    Good Morning All, Just coming in for a quick check in for now. Today was MIC. Ahhh! That "hurt so good" :) The first circuit seemed like the toughest and then I got into the groove. This was my second time and I added a 5 minute/.4 mile pre-warm up on the treadmill and it seemed to help...

    Hi, I don't have too much to add since I'm a purist and have not skipped ahead in the book. :o However, all of your posts here have helped so here's a big air kiss to you all. MWAH! :) My preliminary goal will be to stop the pre-dinner snacking. That's usually when I am hungry and...

    INSANE PARTY - Wed, 9/09

    Good Morning All, Jennifer, I had to laugh when I read your post. As I was coming up from the basement after MCC, my EXACT thoughts were that I dogged the workout. I was still happy with myself for pushing through, but I was grabbing for energy that just wasn't there. My excuse was that I...

    Hi Becky, Sandra might be able to tell you more details, but here is the link to the DVD I ordered on Sandra's suggestion. http://www.pranamaya.com/styles/beginner/miller-hips.html They do have some video previews. She did suggest a few other options, but that didn't require a DVD, but I...

    Good Afternoon, Just catching up since I've been out of it for the weekend. Brenda, I hate painting, but I'm sure the results on the house were worth the "Labor" I guess you were doing what you were supposed to while I goofed off. :p Colleen, Wow, you did Fit test a 15 minute run and...

    NEW!!! Gaining Control (End of Overeating): 1st Thread

    Good Morning, I'm about a third into the book. I'll have to think about my goals over the next 12 weeks and set something in concrete and not generalize. I think I need to get further into the book to help me decide on my specific goals. For me, I tend to eat "unhealthy" food when I'm bored...
