I need to do some major changes and I'll start by looking at options on this thread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615463 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 15:30:03 +0000 MediaNaranja 2615463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On Sunday I am going to start the Blogilates Beginner 2.0 calendar...</p> <p>I injured my knee a few years ago and any sort of high-impact workout makes it all achy and I gave up on exercising completely.</p> <p>Bad call, as I am now up 50 lbs. So this looked like it would be low-impact enough to not bother me. I also like that it is something new everyday because I get bored easily, which also makes me quit.</p> <p>As for diet, I've always tracked food off and on with My Fitness Pal. I think I will ramp that up, as the one time in my life I had major weight-loss results was due to food tracking.</p> <p>My goal is to be at a comfy weight for a trip we are taking next June--belated honeymoon of sorts. I want to look (and feel) good, damnit!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615459 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 15:05:08 +0000 Freckles 2615459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsLonghorn: I can do each legs circuit 2x in 7 minutes. Abs/arms take me longer. I can do the circuit 1.5-1.75 times, and sometimes i'll go over the time if i am finishing up an exercise. There are so many reviews out there - and half are in the camp of finishing the circuit regardless of time while others think you should stop at 7 minutes. Definitely give it a try and there's nothing wrong with doing modifications. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615451 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 14:52:54 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2615451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: oooo, thanks for the PDF! I think i'm going to ease into things with my current 15 day plan, and start psyching myself up to try BBG after that.<br /> Do you do as much as you can in 7 minutes, or do all the exercise no matter how long it takes...with the goal of eventually doing it fast enough to be in 7 minutes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615444 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 14:42:20 +0000 Freckles 2615444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: @MrsLonghorn: I am obsessed with looking at those transformations - so inspiring! I got the pdf for free (not sure if i'm allowed to post it) but you can google "noholita bbg". I don't have bikini abs(!!) but i have definitely become more toned in a short period of time. I really like the resistance workouts because they take 30 minutes and you are pretty sweaty by the end. My focus isn't losing weight but getting into a regular workout routine and developing control over junk food. I'll have to tackle portion control next! I started 30 day shred but honestly after the 4th day i couldn't stand looking at Jillian's face. I switched to BBG and aside from race training, this is the first program i've stuck to. I really hope i can stick with this over the next two months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615428 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 14:04:34 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2615428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: wow! I was thinking about it but the existence of #deathbykayla hashtags scared me :silly: </p> <p>I have been eating Snap Kitchen for my meals all week, to focus on portion size and not snacking. Monday, I'll add in exercise with the Idealfit 15 day body challenge. I asked a friend her opinion on BBG or Diary of a Fit Mommy and she recommended Idealfit....we'll see how it goes!</p> <p>New motto (because 'exercise and eat healthy' is totally overwhelming to me even though I know how): "baby steps to success!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615417 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 13:41:52 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2615417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: I've been debating buying her program. Do you think it's working? Some of the before and after pics I've seen are amazing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615413 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 13:35:05 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2615413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just finished the Bikini Body Mommy 5.0 challenge, and I just started the 4.0 to keep it up before her next series. I need to work on my nutrition, but overall things are going great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615400 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 13:17:56 +0000 tofuwad 2615400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gotkimchi: sure! I walled you because my response was basically a novel! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615373 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 12:21:10 +0000 gotkimchi 2615373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tofuwad: could you give me a sample of a day for you? Also do you weigh everything? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615336 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 11:10:16 +0000 808love 2615336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm off and on with hammer and chisel. I was on a streak. Then suddenly stopped when summer started. I just eat more fruits and vegetables and less/no processed or sugar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615333 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 11:08:06 +0000 autumn865 2615333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished Whole 30 and I feel great. I plan to maintain it but not as strict allowing some special things! I also wake up and run 5 days a week before the family wakes up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615284 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 09:48:53 +0000 tofuwad 2615284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! And I love it. Right now I'm focusing on losing weight over exercise. I'm counting calories (eating between 1400-1500 per day while nursing my 13 month old), and so far I've lost 33lbs. And I literally eat bread and dessert every day. It's totally life changing. For the first time in my life I really feel like my weight and body are in my control, if that makes any sense.</p> <p> I had a real "Aha!" moment in June when I realized I was using not being able to exercise as an excuse not to lose weight. But weight loss isn't about exercise, it's about food! I'm using MyFitnessPal and I love it. It's the only time in my whole life I've ever felt like I'm in control of my weight. I always felt that because of various factors (genetics, injuries, poverty) I was destined to be overweight or obese. And I feel so much better. I have a chronic pain condition and it's so much better. I was basically in pain 100% of the time and now my pain level is down to a 2-3 (which is my normal). Plus we basically cut our grocery bill in half because now I'm eating a normal amount of food instead of an absurdly comical amount. </p> <p>My father's been doing intermittent fasting with calorie counting and he loves it and he's down about 20lbs so far (with probably 70 more to lose). I can't handle IF, it's way too hard for me to skip meals! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615267 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 09:33:09 +0000 Freckles 2615267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm following Kayla Itsines' BBG program. I'm finishing up week 4. I get in some kind of exercise 5-6x a week.</p> <p>I'm not following her diet plan, but i haven't touched candy, cookies or cake in a month, and yesterday was the first time i had ice cream in 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615263 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 09:21:19 +0000 cam 2615263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the "oh crap our budget is tight" plan which involves running with the dog (because we cut the dog walker out) and never eating out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615248 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:47:56 +0000 LuLu Mom 2615248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Starting next Tuesday I'm starting back up on 21`Day Fix, I ended on the 20th and have reversed all my hard work so I'm starting back up with diet and videos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615244 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:45:02 +0000 LulaBee 2615244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jackiedavis87: I should design my own! Also cheap :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615226 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:25:06 +0000 looch 2615226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weight Watchers at the moment. It's really working well for me, I am down 10 pounds since June, which is a dress size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615225 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:24:30 +0000 yin 2615225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH has been following the ketogenic diet for almost a year now, and I have been loosely following as well. While I did lose some weight, I have been gaining it back as of late. Boo. Once I have my mornings free (both kids in school!) I'll start focusing on myself and actually making time to exercise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615221 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:12:51 +0000 arosebyany 2615221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LulaBee: me too! I actually just made me a 12 week program based off of a body group, cardio, body group, cardio, body group schedule. Because I'm to cheap to pay the 15$ ha!</p> <p>I love fitness blender, over 600 workouts and they are all for free! I've also been eating clean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615216 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 07:59:57 +0000 LulaBee 2615216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm doing Fitness Blender workouts 4-5 times a week, going to start one of their programs soon. It's much harder for me to reel in my eating- I love working out but hate meal planning and cooking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615207 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 07:36:47 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2615207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm tracking macros and doing German body comp (<a href="http://coconutsandkettlebells.com/german-body-comp/" rel="nofollow">http://coconutsandkettlebells.com/german-body-comp/</a>) but I only have 10 lb weights at home so while it was super intense the first 2 weeks it's feeling maybe a smidge too easy now. I usually do 1 to 2 days of yoga in addition and if I'm feeling really energetic I'll do a 20 minute HIIT workout once a week too. And we usually do a 2 mile hike it baby once a week too. It's so much easier for me to stay motivated when the form of exercise is a bit varied. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615198 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 06:00:27 +0000 Adira 2615198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred exercise routine. We'll see if it sticks... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615190 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 05:03:33 +0000 brownepiano 2615190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm helping DH do the eating part of 21 day fix so I've been cleaning up my eating too. I'm not as strict about it since I'm still breast feeding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615183 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 03:37:59 +0000 Cherrybee 2615183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I joined Slimming World (a slimming club like Weight Watchers) 8 weeks ago. I've lost 13lb so far. Im struggling to fit exercise in at the moment, which is annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-following-a-dietfitness-plan-right-now#post-2615162 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 22:21:35 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2615162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been doing an intermittent fasting diet (though fell off the bandwagon recently). It's easier for me to skip a meal than spend so much energy thinking about eating something healthy.</p> <p>Hoping to make it to yoga tonight (teacher was in India for the past 2 months)! It really makes such a difference when I get decent exercise.</p> <p>What about you? </p>
