Darlina,

I tried typing a reply on yesterday but the computer would freeze everytime I pushed reply.

I have been very bad! Blew my diet out of proportion over the weekend. So, I have switched my diet to low carb. I started on yesterday and I am doing very well so far.

I have not worked out since last Thursday but I have been walking a lot so at least this was some type of exercise.

I am going to double up of Hip Hop Abs today and finish off the rest of week. My Goal is to loose a few pounds this week. I will weigh in Sunday and let you now my stats.

I am also drinking plenty of water...more than ususal..I am keeping a water bottle within reach.

Okay so last night at 11pm I did my cardio and I think I may start doing it at night because I slept great and seemed like the work out was more efficient I had more energy to do it than I do in the morning I half a$$ it in the morning some times. I also got some walking in last night and took a sneak peak on the scale and it read 175.4 so I am hoping for a real good weigh in on Sunday if I keep it strong and go everyday.
Kandi common girl think of it this way you spent all that money to do it so pop it in and press play the results will come when your consistent I know I need to stay strong these next 4 weeks if I want to hit my short term goal and I do. I really think that walking as well even 30 minutes will really help when I did e diets all I did was walk everyday for 30 minutes at a fast pace and lost 1 to 2 lbs every week here I have not been consistent enough to see fast results like that.

Okay so today I moved like crazy started the morning off cleaning and hanging laundry out then did cardio around 2pm and mowed the lawn for hours then did ab sculpt at night so I got my 2 work outs in. I recruited my brother girlfriend to do this with me while she is up here staying at my moms with him. I told her how great it is even if your not doing it right and your sweating like crazy then something is happening so just move! My body feels it now its 2am and Kaileb just woke up so I figured I would jump on here and show what a wonderful day I had!

okay so yesterday was my rest day. so I am on day 4 and I have been sticking with it tonight I did it at 11:30 pm I actually like doing the night work outs when Kaileb is sleeping. so this time around I am sticking to the schedule and my eating habits are really good so come sunday I think my results will be atleast 2lbs down. we will see

okay so today is sunday and I stepped on the scale to be so disappointed! 177.6 it read that means I put on 2lbs. I dont know what is going on here but something has to change considering we are in the 2nd week of august. Maybe I need to keep better track of calories or start the walking I have been talking about. my son kept me up all night so maybe the lack of sleep has something to do with it. I will check tomorrow morning to confirm this 2 lb gain.

okay so I found my pics and wanted to put some on here so you can see my progress please comment cuz I dont see that much change! This is Apr. 08 I will have to put one pic in each message

this one today

okay so that didnt work so now I am attempting to use my profile thing and upload todays pic its in my bra but gotta show where the work is needed, I got my cardio done so I completed the week one successfully again, so if we are going to do a point system the I would give myself 1 point for work out and 1 for water and 0 for food I went a little overboard with a small slice of chocolate pudding cake and a HUGE like 3 serving potato it was here so I ate it even though I am not big on sweets everyone else was having it.

Looks like the link you are putting is the wrong one, is this from your profile gallery? doesnt look like it, try using that:

Okay so I got on the scale this morning for the official weigh in and found out I didnt actually gain 2 lbs. I kept my 175.4 which still no loss. However my mom who is doing it with me steadily lost 2lbs which discourages me! here is one more attempt at my new pic I tried it the way you said and it didnt work either its to big that way. but before I do that from now on I am keeping my food diary on here as well I think I am eating more than I think,

ok last try cuz this is taking up to much posts--- it didnt work! I give up I guess its to big even after I made it smaller. I dont know how else to do it.

If you hover your mouse over over the BROWSE button for uploading an image it tells you max width (499), height (499) and size (100 Kb).

Is the image you are trying to upload that size or smaller?

ok so I got it to work so feel free to comment on it! the thing was it was 109 kb and not 100. So today went awesome kept my food diary and got both cardio and ab sculpt done together and a 20 min walk. I am tired but felt great to be able to get both done at once. so I would say 1 point eating 1 point water and 2 points exercise for a total of 4 points today! Great start for week 2. Where is all my buddies here? I see two newbies and never see any responses

Hi Darlina, sorry I have not posted but my baby turned 2 this weekend and it was a very busy weekend. And I am so proud of myself because I did not eat any cake!!!

You pictures are very very encouraging...OMG your mid section has gone done a lot!! I cant wait to see these results!

Keep it up girl!

thanks kandi that means alot cuz I cant really tell I dont know if it is my perception or what. Well today I got 1 point food 1 water and 2 for exercise. I did both cardio and ab sculpt as well as walking today. I have a good feeling I will finally break my 175 plateau I cant get below it at all. Well we will see this week I have 2 more double work out days and 2 single work out days. My rest day will be friday.

Good morning all. I think I figured something out here on this tilt tuck and tighten when he says tighten I tried this yesterday and I feel it alot more today what I do is try to suck in my stomach as much as I can and still be able to breath I did that through both my work outs yesterday and I feel it alot more than I ever did. So today is another day of 2 work outs. I am switching up week 2 its supposed to be cardio on day 1 then days 2 and 3 cardio and ab sculpt then ab sculpt and 2 days of both I am doing 4 days of 2 work outs then cardio on sat and ab sculpt on sunday. with friday off. I dont think I am breaking this 175 I think I need to keep off the scale all week but I am so obsessed with it I will get on it 3 times a day! I need to hide it for 2 weeks and just do what I have planned then jump on it. Well I just jumped on it now and I BROKE MY 175!!!!!! on to 174.6 but 175 is so out of here I am jumping for joy in my mind. When I see results that makes me want to push forward. That is a total of 18 lbs lost so far. My original weight was between 189-192 less than 7lbs to go to prepregnancy weight and 18 days to get as much off as possible. I wont be crushed if I dont get into the 160's only because I see that I am a work in progress the true challenge is going to be when classes start up and winter sets in thats when I gain it all back I have for the last 2 years straight. thats why I bought hha's so I could do it in the winter inside no excuses.

This week I have been bring Kaileb to the park and walking everyday too I think that is helping. I like to walk and I think I get better lb loss results I dont know why but the last 2 years I used to walk every day religiously and I would lose atleast 1 lb a week every week this hha fluctuates.

Well I actually got to sleep all night last night so at 7:22 am I am very talkative and energized especially seeing I am not 175 anymore.

Come on girls we need some communication here we need to recruit more Hip hop ab'ers I know when I was on the hha site I seen some great before and after photo's of people that totally amazed me and they say its in like 4 months I always think 4 months is alot but this summer went by so fast I wish I had been more committed in the beginning I would be so much smaller right now in theory. Ok well I am off Have a great day ladies and keep pressin play! get your own ticker at tickerfactory.com
