Wow, I could've written this post. I too just turned 50 in November. For years I pounded my body in my quest to be fit. I ran, did high impact and hardly ever rested. I now have very bad osteoarthritis in both knees. I've been through PT, but it has not really helped. The weird thing is that I...

Anyone know what the name of the last song ( not the cool down) on Ride is? It is so upbeat and makes me feel so happy ( and I swear it's not because it's the end of the workout). Cathe says "it's my favorite song". When that song comes on I feel like I could go forever even though I'm...

Hang in there Mary Lou! I know what you mean about your schedule being thrown off. I am much more productive when I have less time and I'm really busy. When I have a day off I tend to mosey around and get less done. If your eating this week hasn't been great, just move on. Make your eating...

I second the rip 60. I have it and went through t whole rotation and really liked it. I like the fact that the straps allow for rotational moves as well.

Hi Everyone, Hope the week is going well. Today was weigh in day- lost .6 lbs which is surprising because I really got off track this week with my food tracking. I was consistent with the exercise which seems to be the easier part for me, but I ate a lot of junk while making Valentine's day...

Did Bis & Tris yesterday- that was fun! I have Ride scheduled this morning and I am supposed to go to Zumba afterschool today. I'm not sure if I'm up for the Zumba- I still can't shake this fatigue. No boots anywhere in the stores!! Sandals and flip flops abound! I cant wait until it is...

Ah,ah,ah,ah stayin alive,stayin alive. Stayin aliiiiiiiiiiiive :) good for you!!!! I can hear it now. Really made me smile. Did disc5 Xtrain legs. I have the day off so going toDSW to look for boots for DD s birthday, I just might have to get a pair for myself!

Personally, I'm really surprised! At first I was skeptical but I am having fantastic results with the XTrain Legs. I love mixing it up, but my results have never been better. I would've never ever thought that lighter leg work would be so effective for me. It's always good to mix it up.

Mary Lou congratulations on the 1.2#!! Thanks for the encouraging words. I'm really fortunate that I can be very consistent with my workouts. If I miss one its like I forgot to brush my teeth. I need to focus on the quality of my food. I need to get my discipline back! I LOVE WW cookbooks! I...

Yikes, I've gone missing again!!'Ive been really busy trying to find better ways to teach writing to 4th graders- Probably the most difficult thing for me to teach.Doing a lot of web surfing.Mary Lou hope your back is feeling better and you were able to get to your WW meeting. I've been diligent...

Cathy- I was able to do 5 rounds of the sit ups push ups yesterday. I just can't keep up with Cathe and then by the time they're: done I'm really "done". I still consider it an accomplishment! :)

Did Supercuts today too! I did the premix with the Core 2- wow that was a challenging core segment. I've been pretty tired for the past few days and realized that I skipped my rest day last week and did a few doubles this week. I'm paying for it now- I felt like I was just going through the...

Snow day today. Got outside on my trail bike before the weather kicked in! Road about 15 miles. It was great to be outside. Maybe some cross country skiing tomorrow!

As much as I love my tea, I do not know a thing about it! I am a big coffee drinker, but received the tea as a gift from a student for Christmas. I am hooked on the one particular blend. I like really strong spicy tea. I've tried a few others like the Mandarin Oolong something or other. It was...

Thank goodness yesterday was bis& tris in the morning. I went to the Zumba class held at my school at the end of the day. Today is Tabatacise, I really love it, but again I'm kind of tired. I'll try to push through cause tonight is Zumba at the YMCA and that will be an intense one! My big...

Jann- Sorry I don't know where I've been the last few days It's the Maharaja Chai Oolong /Samurai Chai Mate, I am truly addicted- and this stuff is expensive. I've got to limit myself. Sugarfree- Howdid the hike go? I chuckled when you mentioned getting lost. My daughter and I have equally...

I'm alive, I'm alive- Sorry guys. I don't know where the days are going. Is it already Wednesday? This morning was weigh in-lost 1# I finally feel like the hard work is paying off. I must admit though, I've been starving. It felt like I should've lost 5#,lol. Did burn sets CBS on Monday- I feel...

This morning was burn sets Chest,Back , Shoulders. I love this workout. It made me feel so strong. Went to Zumba after work only to find out it was cancelled, oh well. I'll go tomorrow. Sitting here enjoying a delicious cup of Teavanna! I think I'm addicted:eek:

Iron-Mom just hang in there!! You WILL see results. I guess I forgot to officially check in today too. Today was supposed to be a rest day but I felt like doing something so I did 2 short Zumba workouts on my wii, and about 5 songs from Just Dance 4- Still trying to perfect my Justin Bieber...

Iron Mom, I feel your pain. I am currently doing WW and following the 90 day Undulating Xtrain Rotation and adding in Zumba 2 nights a week. I have had weeks where I have gained weight in spite of following my diet and exercising religiously. I have watched people lose oodles of weight without...
