    No sweets - week of Oct 21st

    Hello there. Today I did KM's kick/punch combos only. I really wanted to do more, but I'm still very tired. I tried my best with KM, but I ended up doing it at a medium to high intensity (mostly medium). It'll be better tomorrow. I just didn't want to push it too hard because I haven't...

    gradual tanners

    Good question. If there's a specific brand you'd like to know about I think you should check out reviews online. I use Faux Tan from Bare Escentuals which is not gradual and I absolutely love the product. I think it lasts about 4-5 days on me, but there's a whole ritual I have to follow...

    No sweets - week of Oct 21st

    Hey ladies. Yes ttom has been very tough this time around. It seems that my pmdd symptoms get worse as I'm getting older. Yesterday I had a migraine and I haven't been able to sleep as I usually do. I need at least 8 hours, ideally 9 hours, but I'm getting 5-6 these past few days so I have...

    stretch marks

    Ugh I feel your pain. I have a lot of things to say. Genetics play a role in how many stretch marks you get, or if you get them at all, and everybody is different, so a treatment that might be miraculous on someone might be your worst nightmare. Keep that in mind. First, the Clarins...

    No sweets - week of Oct 21st

    Hello there ladies. What are you up to? It's TTOM for me today so I didn't exercise. I will do Muscle Max tomorrow. Ugh, my diet has been awful these past few days. I need to get back on track starting tomorrow. I hope you both have a nice week! Edited to add: Catherine, did you...

    No Sweets Week of Oct 14th

    Hey ladies. Today I did Low Max on an 8" step; always a tough workout. I wonder how many calories I burn when I do it. Probably lots.:D Affirm - I also love BM2. I should try the step portion one of these days. I really miss that workout. Catherine - I'm glad you're enjoying the new...

    Catherine, I did not preorder because I can't do high impact cardio and it only has one low impact workout, but I am waiting for the next weight training series. If I'm not mistaken they're going to film those next? I think I read that somewhere. I will definitely preorder those. I hope you...

    No Sweets Week of Oct 14th

    Today I did a really short cardio + GS: C&T (no warm-up) + a short ab session. I was short on time, but I exercised first thing in the morning. It's not my favorite time to workout but since TTOM is approaching when I get back from work I'm really tired and then I don't want to exercise. So I...

    No Sweets Week of Oct 14th

    Well Catherine I did pretty much the exact same workout (KPC cardio through the high intensity drills modifying the impact on some moves) but I skipped the abs. I was too tired to do C&T + abs so I will try again tomorrow. Affirm - I hope you're fine!

    No Sweets Week of Oct 14th

    Well, it seems we need to get back on track either on our diets or on our weekly exercise routines. We're here to support each other so let's just get back to it little by little. Yesterday I didn't exercise, I went shopping and I walked and walked and walked, you know how that goes. I...

    No Sweets-week of Oct 7

    Hot and humid indeed. What the...it's October and even in Puerto Rico we get a break from the hot summer heat in the fall. I wouldn't say in the 40s but low 70s (and it was close to 100). It was pretty hot today too, but I managed to do GS Legs. I increased the weights and I'm definitely...

    No Sweets-week of Oct 7

    Well it has been pretty hot and humid today. I tried to exercise first thing in the morning, but even with the a/c I was dizzy so I rescheduled GS Legs again and I did S,J&P step only premix (modifying the impact) + LL abs only. Short and not so hard, but at least I did something. My diet has...

    No Sweets-week of Oct 7

    Thanks ladies! Well, last night I cheated like a maniac (I ate cake all night and many other things). I'm pretty sure that increasing my weights and working out first thing in the morning helped me balance my eating yesterday because today I did my usual Thursday weigh-in and I didn't gain an...

    No Sweets-week of Oct 7

    Today I exercised first thing in the morning. Did KM's first 35 mins (before the blasts) + GS: BSB (increased the weight on most exercises) + a short ab session. I turned 29 today and I still can't believe it. A lot of people don't know my age and they usually guess 22 or 23 so I let them...

    Don't worry about the tiramisu Catherine. You'll get back on track tomorrow. I definitely have to stop thinking about this rash. I'm trying not to peek at myself in the mirror also. The doctor is probably right about stress making it worse. He said that I have to be realistic about my...

    How are you ladies? Yesterday I did Low Max but I've been so stressed out about my skin that I cheated on my diet all day long. I went to the doctor today and he said I might be making this worse with all the stress. He prescribed a cream for my face also. I've been tired all day so I didn't...

    Today I felt better so I did some cardio + GS:C&T + some abs. I shortened the breaks between the sets of push-ups in C&T and I still felt fine, maybe in a couple of weeks I can do them exactly like Cathe and crew, or close (lol!). Then I waxed my car and I ended my day by watching the MLB...

    No Sweets Week of Sept 30

    I'm sorry to say that I didn't exercise yesterday and I can't exercise today either. I started using a new medication this week and I got a really bad allergic reaction. My skin is covered in a rash (including my face which is pretty scary) and I haven't been able to sleep for a couple of...

    No Sweets Week of Sept 30

    Hello ladies. Yesterday I couldn't exercise because I had a horrible migraine, but today I did GS Legs. I've been cheating like mad these past few days too! I know I know! I will do something about it asap. Take care.
