So I went to the gym again today. 4th time this week I had a great workout and I really feel like I'm on the right track. I want to try on dresses next month so I want to lose a few more pounds before I do.
Did anyone order their dress a size smaller anticipating losing more weight?
well i told the lady there that i plan on losing weight and that i have lost weight before and will def lose it not like im just saying it. BUt she ordered it a size bigger bc of my chest, and will have to take it in at the stomach, so i hope it will be fine, they said its the best option...but i know that i will have to get it taken in no matter what
The same thing happened with me. They go by your largest measurement and adjust everything according to that. My chest is almost 2 dress sizes bigger than the rest of me, so everything will have to be taken in.
yup same here. Which makes sense...i know they can take in about 3 sizes so hopefully it will fit fine...probably is that i am 15 pounds heavier than i normally am so im afraid with the fact that the dress is bigger and then losing 15 pounds might be a problem taking it in, i just hope not...im staying positive lol
I have the same concern so lets just keep telling each other that everything will be fine! Keep thinking positively
Speaking of positive thoughts, I'm down 7 lbs since I started my diet/exercise program 3 weeks ago!!

Re: getting in shape progress report
Ok I just finished working out for 85 minutes...i tested out both of my new dvds, the martial arts for 45 minutes and for 40 mins i did yoga booty ballet...The martial arts was good but i thought it was a little slow, but the abs part at the end i really felt
BUT I LOOOOVE Yoga booty ballet, it is so great...i bought the latin flavor one, and the dancing part is very high energy and fun. I loved the moves and do the moves alot when i go out so i liked that. The abs part was great too...You do have fun while working out, the two ladies have so great energy and they're personalities are so cute. Even the meditation part was good, ill be honest at first i was like ok lets get this over with, but it really calmed me lol. Definitely recommend this, and thank you to madseason for the recommendation

wow great job denise!!! 85 minutes?! that is so good!
i gave up all hope of exercise tonight bc it was around 8pm by the time i had a moment so i decided to try the new 'Girls Next Door' series on exercise on demand. . . it was WAY TOO EASY but she was adorable and silly LOL so since i started - i just continued! i had no intention of really working out BUT i ended up doing the girls next door workout for 20 minutes dance cardio for 35 minutes i want those abs for 16 minutes i want those arms 2 for 16 minutes
ok i am a loser i just whipped out a calculator - i just realized that i worked out for 87 minutes! LOL when i read your 85 minutes it seemed so long! but yay for me too then!
oh and by the way the dance cardio is the one under DANCE not the one under Brides to Be - that is one intense workout . . .and I want those arms 2 is SO MUCH HARDER then the first one. . .

yeah i didn't work out the past few days so i had to step it up a little bit.
WOO HOO good for you, sounds like you got alot done and targeted just about every area, see youre talking about me doing 85 minutes and you did it for longer, 2 minutes but its something lol. But once i do start, i can keep going and ill say to myself ok 15-20 extra minutes will make a difference so ill push myself.
AHHHH I know I want those arms 2 is alot harder lol, i was an idiot and the first time i did her arm workouts i did #2 first, dont know why lol...But at least you know you definitely got a great workout on your arms.
Good job

to splurge here and there and a small amount wont hurt you. If i am in the mood for dessert after dinner...ill have like 1 ferrero rocher...it wont kill me. They also say its good to indulge in something, a small amount though...it'll help you continue to stick to a diet and eat healthy most of the time

Re: getting in shape progress report
No wonder I couldn't find this on the '08 boards! Anyway, today is my weigh in and I'm nervous this week was tough. Cutting calories back so much I can honestly say it was hard to stay on track and feeling so unsatisfied. Que sera, sera. We'll see how this week goes and just work with a clean slate tomorrow. I will keep you all updated.
