Pretty much only have a few more pounds to lose and mostly going to focus on toning and adding muscle.
Curt!!! You seems to be putting the rest of us to shame. That is a very BIG deal! ( losing 47 lbs ), wishing you continued success with the toning and muscle building. So proud of your dedication to good health.Quote:

Thank you ladies :)

Interesting times, for sure....we just felt so thankful to be Canadians. I can't tell you how many times I've watched, "All The President's Men", which lead to Nixon's impeachment, and if it was on right now, I'd PVR it for tomorrow?
I love my trainer :), I am taking their orders and will be bck in Sept!:

It’s hot.
It’s August.
We don’t get a ton of nice warm weather on the Wet Coast so here at Equilibria we decided that we want you to forget about starting a weight loss and exercise regime this August.
Instead we must insist you stay out of our studio drop the woman-guilt about not exercising enough and go drink on patios, play with your kids, enjoy those BBQ’s with your friends. Oh and you MUST try this skinny low calorie pina-colada drink I am loving. (See bottom of page). And stay the heck outta our gym for the month.
Trainers Order’s.
We have some pretty strong values at Equilibria and we believe happy women have enough play time, rest time and work time. And August is not a work month – it’ a play month. Plus who has time to exercise with the kids home 24/7?
But September – well September my ladies, is a work month, and not to be ‘that’ person but uh, it is coming up in 6 weeks. Very slow, extra long weeks I promise. ;) So how good would it feel just relaxing and enjoying the rest of summer knowing you have your fall fitness all lined up and ready to go?
You could sleep late – drop the guilt and just enjoy the next 6 weeks to your hearts content. And when you drop those munchkins off at school and put the cover over the BBQ – we are waiting for you with a complete fitness transformation program that you are all registered for and excited to get started.
Herbal Magic has filed for bankruptcy. The Centres in Western Canada will stay open, but the rest will be closed by Friday.
Yes...not surprised, Curt, although I sure lost weight going there. The franchise owner chatted with DD and I and said there was a "general dissatisfaction" (I'm guessing uprising!) among owners and they wanted better terms...so something happened, and she's now Herbal ONE, which others are now, too. So the concept is the same, the supplements are the same, but something changed concerning the franchise owners....Quote:

But now that I can prepare meals again, at least mine, hubby does the dinners, we'll go back to eating that way and he sure doesn't mind one bit in fact he likes that he can lose his tummy, too.
So! Day 1....no weight loss to report...lol...:cheesygrin:
I'm thinking out loud here...should I start a new thread, start fresh, so to speak??
What do you think?
We can carry on here Lynn, or move i will find you!! I have been missing a lot of check ins here. I am trying though!! My meds are making it really hard to lose but I am focusing on the healthy foods and less on the scale until I see some results!!
I gave birth to our twins on July 31. I gained a total of 20lbs during the pregnancy. The babies had a combined weight of 11lbs 11.5oz at birth. I'm exclusively breastfeeding them, which makes me quite hungry. It burns an additional 1,000 calories per day, but my body is also producing a lot of a hormone that produces milk while also making me hungry. It will be interesting to see how much I weigh on my doctor's office scale at my 6wk check-up.
Oh Angela! I think you have done just amazingly well considering there were 2 babies in there! That weight will melt off you in no time! Hope you are enjoying all of the time spent with the babies!!Quote:

Remember ladies like TG said it is not all about numbers. I have eaten really healthy this summer and am so proud. Less pop too which you know is my vice.
