Jo, I have those workouts, too. {I'm a workout DVD junkie} I've been exercising since 2006. Marykay really wears us out in that second mile. The Express is a slower workout than the other two, since its from an older set, give it a try! Be consistant and you'll make that 4th mile in no time.
Emme, Let me know that you think of Transformers 3. Hubby wants to see it but I heard a reviewer say its too long {2.5hrs} and the last hour is nothing but battle/violence, which doesn't sound fun to me.
Penguin - TBD=to be determined. I wasn't sure what I was going to have but I ended up only having a nectarine at lunchtime and I had a 6" turkey sub about 5PM. I'm stuffed so that's going to be it for me today.
Well ladies I am more determined now to stick to my plan. I went shopping today and you know the mirrors in the fitting rooms right? Well I couldn't believe what I saw in the mirror!!!! OMG I've got to stick to working out and eating right and get my old body back.
GettinFit ~ The Shred is good. I've only ever done level 1 and it's only 20 minutes, but it's a lot packed into a short time and it really gets my heart going and the sweat pouring. Good luck if you finally try it! =)
Emme ~ Enjoy your movie weekend, sounds fun!
Jo ~ Sounds like you started off great.
I had a really good day. I'm super sore from the 30DS, but I know after a couple more days doing it that will subside. Thank goodness tomorrow is my rest day though, it's going to get worse before it gets better.

This afternoon I decided to go through my closet. We have a big old walk in. My husband's stuff is on the right, mine is on the left, and the back wall is my hope to "wear soon" collection I've built up over the years. I filled up a bag with things that don't fit anymore, and I moved every single thing I had hanging on the "wear soon" wall over to my side! Most of it fit or almost fit when I tried it on! And a lot of the stuff I left on my side is going to be too big soon! I was super excited. Then I had a box of not even close to fitting into yet stuff that is now hanging on the "wear soon" wall. haha! =) Most of it is really cute stuff that I got from a store I worked in 5 years ago. It's all really small, but everything went on clearance for $1 per item so I grabbed a bunch hoping to fit into it one day. It's going to take a lot longer to get into all the new stuff on the "wear soon" wall, but I decided to hang them up so I can look at them every now and then for extra motivation. =)
Well I hope everyone had a great day! I'm thinking bed early tonight for me.

Hubby's back is worse today, so he's napping with an icepack. He played with the AC last night and assures me its working fine. Hmmm. Didn't feel 'fine' yesterday when we were out. High today is 100*, humidity is giving us a 5* heat index so it will feel like 105* or so. Its been worse, but its supposed to rain this week! Yay, the plants will be happy but highs will still be in the 95* area. yuck.
Welcome Looking. Your goals for the month are great! I look forward to hearing about your successes.
Penguin - I agree with you on the heat. It is awful here. I was out in it for a little while and couldn'w wait to get home. I am so ready for fall.
Mandy - Great job on your loss!
Kim - Enjoy your new wardrobe It feels so good when you're able to fit those things you've been trying to get into for so long. I have an evening gown and a pair of white 7 jeans that I'd like to fit by the time I go on my cruise at the end of November. If we keep on doing what we're doing, we'll make it and before we know it, these things will be too big
So far, I've had a good weekend and haven't had a proble staying OP. I hope everyone else is doing good.
1. Exercise 5x weekly for 20 minutes each, for a total of 22 days and 440 minutes exercised.
2. Track calories using Livestrong's Daily Plate, and stay under my calorie goals every week (except the day of the 4th)!
3. Eat 2 or more fruits and veggies daily. (I will up this number in the coming months.)
4. Weigh-in on Friday mornings, and measure hips, chest, waist and neck to compare to last month on the first of August.
So far, so good:
1 July: 30 minutes of Olympic race walking; calorie goal met.
2 July: 20 minutes of Olympic race walking; calorie goal met.
3 July: 20 minutes of Olympic race walking; calorie goal met.
Evening everyone. I had another good day on plan. Thankful for the rest day from exercise, going to workout hard this week. Hope you all had a great day!
