Did a workout last night with a lot of jumping. Back when I was doing a ton of Insanity that workout would have been pretty easy for me. But I kept having to pause and my quads were on fire. Can't have that come ski season.

That picture terrifies me, couldn't imagine actually doing it.

Nice, I wish I had places to walk to for lunch. I normally take in between 1600-2200 calories a day. Right now I'm trying to keep it around 1200 and mostly protein. Protein bar for breakfast 200 (rolled oats, peanut butter and a banana) Protein shake for lunch 200 cals canned tuna for snack 90 cals (not great but it works) dinner tbd

Last cruise I went on we worked out almost everyday. It was interesting doing my balance moves on a moving ship. My husband actually lost weight on the cruise because he ate less than he normally does. Every morning assorted fruits, lunch was fruit and a small sandwich or salad. Dinner was the fish option. No dessert. The way he sees it is, he's already having fun on vacation so he isn't looking for any fun in the food plus they have lots of yummy healthy options.

Beans, avocado, lettuce, tomato and a little bit of cheese. Can't remember the last time I had sour cream. Of course you are the one that had a hard time putting weight on right....lucky bastard

Vacation is coming up. Trying to hit it hard this week. Super strict on food and adding a little extra workout each day. Trying to decide if I should workout on vacation or not. Whenever I do I always love it and feel better about the vacation. Going to Disney and Legoland, so I'm stuck eating amusement park food....blah

I'm a fan and I often think we are going to suck. Love my team though!

well my lunch got screwed. Picked up a wrap for myself at HT and sushi for the kid who's at work with me today, nowhere on the sushi did it say spicy or spicy mayo but it was! kid loves sushi but not super spicy sushi so guess who got the wrap and who had to eat the sushi covered in mayo at least it was brown rice and I dabbed off some of the mayo.

Drinking too much?

Woke up @ 4. Did laundry, cleaned house, did an Insanity workout and leg lifts. Morning workouts are great but I can't just wake up and do them I have to be up for a little while.

Easy Eggplant recipe, it's in the oven a bit but your time cooking is very short. Bake eggplant slices and zucchini cut long ways with a little cooking spray and salt and pepper for about 30-35 minutes at 400 degrees. Place zucchini pieces on top of eggplant slices Add a little of each ingredient to each eggplant slice: marinara sauce (one with little sugar, and processed ingredients (not ragu) 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella 1/4 cup grated Parmesan 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves cherry tomato per egg plant slice Put back in oven at 400 degrees F. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until cheese is bubbly.

I found a HIIT workout on my XBOX One fitness app. thinking about giving it a try.

So I'm loving Gamma. I'm just loving T25 in general or as I call it T50. I'm finding myself wanting to toss my workout schedule and only do T25 workouts, they are fun.

Don't know what your guys style is, he has found some shirts at American Eagle and Express i think they might be called fitted or something like that, anyways they seem to be wider up top but not as bulky in the waist.

Sometimes yeah. My waste is a size 0-2 my thighs are 2-4 depending on brand. Add in that I'm 5'9" and it gets difficult sometimes. My husband has a hard time with shirts.

Jealous! that's what I'm working towards, my ass is the last place I lose weight. When I started working out my abs and core were ridiculous looking after a couple of weeks, 3 years later and my ass is still not where I want it to be errr! But it's getting better.

Killed it today! Great workouts, ate really well except it is 8:00 and we haven't ate dinner yet. Summer time mayhem!

Here is my advice feel free to ignore it 1400 calories is where I was thinking you should be in regards to your weight and goal. A few tips or things to double check regarding your food. -Make sure your peanut butter is 100% peanuts, Smuckers is a great brand for that or Trader Joes, don't be buying JIF or Peter Pan because they put a ton of other poo in there. -From what I've read honey is sugar, once it goes into the body it really makes no difference- if you have to have it then go light. -From what I've read about Lean Cusine, I'd skip them and most cereals are terrible for you, lots of bad carbs. despite how healthy they brand themselves. If you're looking for a quick easy meal for dinner I'd find another option, there are a lot of them. I have suggestions if you are interested. -Make sure you are going easy on the salad dressing, that stuff is full of bad fats, sugar and calories -beware that sugar has a million different names. And your body treats all of them pretty much the same. http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/whattoeat/a/sugars.htm Healthy food ideas you could add to your diet: Steel Cut Oats- filling and gives you a burst of energy in the mornings Homemade granola bars- i have a recipe that's easy if you want it, it's just peanut butter, banana and muesli Beans Quinoa avocados- higher calories but very filling and healthy, i'd limit them to stay under your calorie count. Veggies- you know the ones you see at the store that you never try, google a recipe and give it a shot. Eggplant, spaghetti squash, butternut squash, etc. Almond Milk instead of regular milk Protein Shakes- Tuna from the can- i know it's from the can but it's a healthy meal when you need a quick bite. Egg white omelettes Salmon Shrimp

I kind of have one of those, more so in my hip area, it doesn't go all the way down. It was the first thing that popped up when i working out and I hated it, I'm ok with it now. I don't think it's very girly looking. btw, your i hope your wife is in amazing shape, seems like a lot to ask, but maybe you don't mind.

First I have to say bravo! That's awesome you've lost so much weight. What is your target calorie in take? make sure you aren't taking too few calories in. What kinds of foods are you eating? make sure you are not only eating few caloires but also limiting bad carbs and sugars? What kind of workouts are you doing? if you lifting weights, your muscles are growing, if you doing intense cardio like jumping, push ups etc your muscles are growing and your weight will go up. This is a good thing though because muscle burns fat. Double check and make sure you really are eating as good as you think you are, make sure you are counting any little piece of candy, the bite of food from your kids plate, the beers you had with your buddies. It's easy for all of us to think we are doing better than we actually are. Thats all the advice I have atm. Good luck!

Could you work to a size? Like a particular pants size?

That's awesome!!! Getting strong!

It's addictive. You can have that 40 lbs gone in no time.

So I just ate 1/2 a buffalo chicken sandwich for lunch. I needed to give in on something. It was awesome, got it out of my system.

I'm guessing muscle or water weight.
