Goooooood morning everyone!
we are having some gorgeous days here in the Bay Area after all those yukky storms. It looks like July outside (of course it's still cold - but the afternoons have been in the 60s lately). On the kitty front, they are getting along better but no snuggling - YET.
JC - are you doing the Lean Legs for Women workout from Brother Iron Sister Steel? I have just started that myself. Squats three times a week - ouchies!!! Since it's a Monday/Weds/Fri split, I'm adding in an upper body workout on Tuesday and cardio on Tues/Thurs/Sat (with optional cardio on Sunday). You get Dr. Phil in Oz as well? His show is very popular here, we've watched it a couple of times (however Jim usually turns on music videos after Seinfeld).
And as far as your sister not noticing your transformation...well...she probably DID notice but just didn't say anything (there's a lot of people like that!) I don't know if it's jealousy or just not thinking...I am so jealous that you all are having beach weather right now - can't wait for Miami in about 3 weeks...fun and sun!!!
I read BodyRX myself earlier last year and just decided that it really wasn't what I wanted to do - but still have the book in case I change my mind
Lana - great photo! you look so cute!
Sweetchick - whaddya mean ONLY 25-30 pounds? Jeez - I probably didn't lose more than 15 scale-weight pounds since April 2001 - but went down from a size 10 to a size 4. I've said it before - concentrate on the Pants-O-Meter and get rid of the scale (or at least don't rely on it).
Carrie - Mel is right on - patience and persistence are the keys on BFL (along with planning that is). This isn't a quick weight loss fad diet thingy - just keep at it and commit to the 12 weeks and you will be soooo happy!
OH and at L&S - Tall Jen is back with her daily menu thread. Newbies - I really recommend that you check it out - feel free to post your menu for critique and helpful tips. Looking at other folks' menus is also a great way to get some new menu ideas!
Gotta get to work - more later everyone!
