Can I join in? I've posted to weight loss checkins as jencrispin before, but lost that log-in information. I don't know if anyone remembers me. I lost three of the seven pounds I gained in December and hope to lose the rest plus two by the end of the month. That's a little ambitious for me...

Three things that usually work for me: deep-cleaning the house playing my flute doing my hardest workout I know what it's like to be so far away and want to help. We were stationed in Germany while my paternal Grandma was dying of Alzheimer's, and the only reason I got to go home for her...

I love this series. I did it for a month straight when it was first released and lost three inches from my lower abs (granted, I'm overweight, but still!) I'm doing a CTX/ PS rotation as soon as my PS DVD gets here. The CTX cardio along with my daily walks will be my only cardio for a couple...

I got my first Cathe tape (Step Jam) in 1998. It didn't take very long to start seeing results. Unfortunately, I got sick in 1999, then tried to train for marathons in 2000 and 2001, and then bumbled around fitness-wise last year, so I can do less now than I could when I first started working...

As my husband said today, it's a game. I pretend to sneak them in, he pretends to be shocked. Jenne (I'm the "accountant" too, but the allowance doesn't really work for us- we'd spend it, then spend more. Rather, we alternate treat months. He might get an out of state Iowa fishing license...

RE: Hot tub aqua - NOT That explains why the pool at our Y is soooo cold! I like to swim, but I have to talk myself into getting into the pool every time! Jenne

A cursory glance at the article seems to show that she is suing BECAUSE WW grads regain weight when they go back to eating the old way. If eating the old way didn't work before, why on earth do these people think it'll work now? Jenne

LAST EDITED ON Jan-09-03 AT 11:32AM (Est)[p]If it's not the UPS man, it's the kids. "Hey, Mom, is that a new Cathe tape hiding behind your computer???" DH always laughs it off, but I sometimes feel bad because we also are working on paying down debt. (For the past year, I've been budgeting in...

Were you in the military? I lived on Terceira from 1980-1983 and again from 1991 to 1993. I love the Azores! Jenne

Lindy, I am so sorry, you really did have a terrible Christmas. You alone have the right to decide how to feel about this... no one else can tell you you're being petty or you "should be grateful." They don't know. You do sound like you're grateful for your blessings, but at the same time...

LAST EDITED ON Jan-04-03 AT 09:19PM (Est)[p]My number one fitness goal is to improve my diet. I have to eat a healthy, high-fiber breakfast and stop drinking all my calories (sodas & cappucini.) I'm also going to get PS and concentrate on building good muscle. I've focused on cardio for too...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-23-02 AT 06:15AM (Est)[p]I hope you don't mind... I don't have much advice but I can share your misery. I've always been well-proportioned, with a waist that "matched" my hips and bust pretty well, but about three years ago, I started gaining what ultimately became 50 pounds...

After reading all these responses, I feel like an Amazon! I do all my stepping at 6" because that's the lowest my step goes.

I drink a cappuccino every day, but I make it myself on my machine at home and I know exactly how many calories it has. My cappuccino is the equivalent of two dairy servings, so it helps me get my calcium. I don't know what the info is on those machine drinks, but I'll bet it's pretty close to...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-08-02 AT 05:09AM (Est)[p]Everyone else had such good advice, but I just wanted to add... once you get your new shoes, all of the wisdom I have heard is that you shouldn't "try" to modify your footplant. I mean, once you have proper running shoes that fit your biomechanics...

I'm trying to lose bodyfat (a LOT of bodyfat) and build up my mileage so that I can finish a half-marathon in 2 hours or less next spring. So all of my workouts are geared to that. I have BodyMax, 4 days of running, and one day of incline walking on my rotation right now, but I'm working up to...

Are you nursing? I wasn't able to lose more than ten pounds after I had my son until he was completely weaned. Within a month, I had lost another ten pounds. (I was doing mostly Firms at the time and walking a lot.) I don't know what to say about mushy middles. I have the mushy middle genes...

Being 20 probably helps, too. Heck, I had a four-pack without exercising when I was 20. However, I do admire her hard work and dedication. I read that she runs on a treadmill on an incline while singing so she can sing on stage in her shows.

That's so perfect! BTW, I am eagerly awaiting a round in which you make a step-kickbox video... I hope that will happen! Thanks for all you do! Jenne

I get little pinpoint bruises on my thighs after CTX and larger bruises on my shins from running, but I figure as long as I'm not struggling or hurting or overly tired, it's probably nothing major.
