I certainly hope so. The muscles around my knees are a little sore today, but everything else feels fine. I'm skipping today and will work out tomorrow. :) Thanks for the encouragement.
 
This is day 4 for me and I have lost a total of 4 pounds according to my scale today. I hope it stays that way and goes down even more! :hurray: :willy_nilly:

My Ticker Moved Down! Take that Lazy Linda!!!! You weight less than me now. 150 my goal and LL is down to 148. heheheheheee :willy_nilly: *happy dance*
 
Great job on the workout! I haven’t tried any of Jillian’s workouts, but I remember how I felt doing Taebo the first few times. It kind of felt overwhelming. The people in his videos for the most part are all in tip top shape and they hardly work up a sweat. Me on the other hand could barely finish one whole set before I was out of breath and dripping sweat. I was also very uncoordinated which made things even more difficult. The good news is that the more I did it, the better I got. Today I can get through a whole DVD while keeping up with them. My stamina has improved immensely. I guess what I’m trying to say is that as long as you keep up with it and push yourself you’ll see some major improvements not only on your weight, but in your stamina as well. Not only will you get thinner, but you’ll also get stronger too. It’s really a great feeling. :)

Good luck on starting your journey and losing your first 4 pounds. You’re well on your way!
 
Thanks Mandy...I hope one day to be able to get to the end of the vid without having to do the marching in place because I can't do what they are. Stronger and more balanced sounds good right about now. :seeya:

Thank you Icy...I'm hoping to keep it up. But sometimes the body needs to stay the same, so I know that will happen eventually. Thanks again! :waving:
 
Hello keep up the good work! It's hard I feel like since I gained weight ppl treat me different. I just want to shout like "I'm still fun!" I eat when I feel bad too it is like a tempoary high. I want to try p90x after I have my baby, but right now I'm trying not to keep eating junk while prego ,I'm afraid after this baby I'll need to lose 100 lbs arggg oh well :)
 
Oh trust me, you'll get to the point where the video will almost feel easy. The Taebo workout I'm working on currently is high cardio. When I first tried it months ago I got maybe 5 minutes in and said "screw it, I can't do this". Now I only struggle with a few moves only because I'm not as flexible or coordinated. I still get winded and everything, but it's still doable. Just keep working on it. You'll be amazed at how your stamina improves over time!

Congrats on your recent loss! Keep up the good work! :)

Hi, thanks!! Yes, I feel the same way...I'm still me. Well, once you have your little bundle of joy, you will probably get exercise running around doing things for the little darling. My sister was always running from room to room. "Where are the wet ones?" "Where are the diapers?" :)
 
Scale said 288.8 today...maybe by Sun it will say 287...LOL! I put on a pair of jeans and they felt looser. It just made my day.

My kitten Livia and my cat Precious are following me around today. So cute.
 
Hey there Leia! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving the lovely note on my journal. I get so discouraged and people like you really make this less lonely for me.

It is wonderful that you have lots 14 pounds all ready! I think that one's jeans feeling looser is one of the most amazing feelings ever!

Take care!

Excellent work, Leia! It must feel great to be seeing concrete results of your clothes getting looser. Yay!
