    6 Monthers, STS, FRIDAY!!!!!!

    Hi ladies! I'm done with meso 1 and the ankle is feeling much better. Next week is Garden Max, Clean Max, and Easter Max, so I'll be glad for the break from working out. My weight maintained this week--lack of cardio or just one of those mini plateaus I hit after losing a couple of lbs? Only...

    hello mamas! 3-30---->

    Hi ladies-- I'm finished with meso 1 and now I rest (except for garden max and clean max and Easter max next week!) Need to get my stuff prepared for the next meso. Lisa--congrats on 8 lbs to go! I have 9.5 (but then some after that). Flying solo is hard, so hang in there. And don't worry...

    6 Monthers, Thursday the 2nd

    Hi ladies--I love reading about what ya'll do:D. We have a pretty diverse group here. I'm a home school mom (disclaimer: I do not "do it all":confused::p;)) The house is usually a wreck, but everyone is educated, everyone eats and I workout come hell or highwater (except when I'm injured:()...

    hello mamas! 3-30---->

    Ugh! I just clicked the wrong tab closed and lost a whole post with personals. Well, I'm not going to do it all again tonight, so hopefully tomorrow. Ds 14 is waiting for me to watch "All Quiet On the Western Front". We are actually studying WW2 now, but I'm way backed up on my movie...

    6 Monthers, STS Tuesday the 30th

    Hi ladies--thanks for all the words of encouragement. It helps, it really does. Yes, I am eating less to make sure there is a calorie deficit and I'm nursing a giant baby (22 lbs at 7 months and growing--that's got to be burning something). According to the accursed scale, I have 9.5 lbs to go...

    hello mamas! 3-30---->

    Hi ladies Disk 10 second time round on tap for today. I've not gained weight since the cardio grew scarce, so I'm happy about that. I now have 9.5 lbs to go to get to my pre preg weight. Lisa--I'm going to do a lot of tomatoes, beans, snap and sugar peas, onions, greens, etc--all stuff we...

    I do not want children!

    Well, our extended families are hard on dh and me because we have 7 children--oh the judgement--opposite sides of the same coin, I guess. (We love to tease and say that we think of number 7 as our middle child, just to see the steam come out of their ears--I need that devilish smiley we used to...

    6 Monthers, STS, Monday (already)

    Hi ladies-- I need the eating clean extra motivation, because my ankle still hurts and I'm feeling really demoralized. I had hoped to avoid big breaks due to injury this year, and here I am:(. I won't do any cardio for this week while I finish up meso 1 and next week is my break. I'll be...

    hello mamas! 3-30---->

    Hi ladies-- No workout for me today--supposed to do cardio, but I'm going to take it easy on the ankle, which is still inexplicably sore. Next week is my STS rest week, so I'll take 2 weeks off the cardio and finish up with meso 1 this week. I get this horrible panicky feeling over it, but...

    MAMA MIA! =) 3-23----->

    Hi ladies-- I've really enjoyed seeing everyone's babies. How fun:D I found the kid food open discussion thread. Mine don't really eat that bad all in all (as my previous post suggested), but I have no problem with treats on top of the healthy stuff and some days are better than others. I...

    Adrien Updat, Warning: Cuteness

    STS 6 Monthers, Saturday, 3/28

    HI ladies--been missing in action from this check in for a couple of days. Made it to my mommy check in, but not this one. My ankle hurt on Thursday and I can't remember if I posted that or not, so it's clear I really need to take a break from cardio for a while. I will take a week off and...

    MAMA MIA! =) 3-23----->

    Okay, it sort of worked. I dont know why those blue thingies are in my post, but the thumbnails are there. Candra--Oh Ryder and Owen are soooo cute. And those monkeys--did you stencil that or do it free hand? Very, very, creative. Wow, I am really impressed. I have sharpie pen, boogers, and...

    MAMA MIA! =) 3-23----->

    Hi ladies--disk 11 for me today. That 5% increase--I'm really feeling it. What's more of a bummer than the scale not going down? the scale going down, but the inches staying the same. I was down another 1lb this week, but my inches have not changed since the middle of the month, so I can't...

    Those against a modifier in high impact workouts, what's the downside?

    Same here--once I learn the routine, I hardly look at the screen either. I've already pre ordered and ultimately don't care if there is a modifier or not, but as someone who's been through multiple pregnancies with Cathe and weathered various injuries, I think I might kind of enjoy a modifier...

    MAMA MIA! =) 3-23----->

    Mmmmmm.....cookie dough....That's a no-bake cookie;). I did 40 min of step (Kelley Coffey Meyers-- I can't remember the name) and my ankle really hurts again. I have no idea what is going on. I am going to avoid cardio, even low impact for a while, but that means no cheats at all if I am to...

    6 Monthers, STS , Thursday 3/26

    Hi ladies--I was hoping to do personals, but I have a 3 year old having a melt down because she can't find her "beautiful baby" (read not beautiful;)). I have the weirdest DOMS from disk 10--my shoulders, yes, makes sense, but the muscles below my arm pits (like the very outside of my lats?)...
