Hey ya'll, mind if a new gal butts in? I did The Firm Monday morning....went kind of easy with three lb. weights.....(older tape with master instructor wearing yellow leotard). And I happen to hate abs too, but the ab sectoin in this video is awesome. I can do upper body o.k. but the lower body kills me. But I was determined to do it and somehow muddled my way through it.

I did a basic Taebo tape today (Tuesday) and there is nothing like a taebo tape to stretch out those muscles after doing a firm tape.

Goal Wed. is to do The Firm tape again. And speaking of skinny jeans....I have a size 14 pair of jeans (not that size 14 jeans are skinny jeans for most people but they are for me) that I want to fit into in a couple of months.

Catch ya'll later, Roche

hi roche!

welcome to our firm forum. congrats on getting through the ab portions. that's always a toughie for me. i think we all have some kind of clothes we are working to get into. for me, it's a size 10 pair of jeans.

Welcome to the Firm Forum, roche! The more the merrier. I have that old tape too (with the yellow leotard). I like it because I can get through it all on days that I'm not feeling so energetic... I'm still working with light weights. I staunchly refuse to do the little poses at the ends of sequences, though.

Mine's a size 10 too, day. I bet we're in them by August!

i sure hope so kmarie! i don't want to have to buy bigger clothes before school starts back! i'm a teacher. i wore elastic pants, lots of black and barely made it through the end of the year last year without splitting most of my pants! what a miserable feeling. i want to wear the clothes i have and have them fit right. of course, i wouldn't be agains buying new smaller clothes!

i've got to get an older tape just to see those poses at the end.

Ok, I did Cardio Sculpt today... got almost all the way through. I couldn't keep going after the part where she makes you put a weight behind your knee... I can't do that! The weight always falls out! AAAAGH.

Late check in! I did standing legs yesterday - sweating buckets (so attractive). Today is my off day.

And btw, ladies - those jeans will fit! I went from a size 16 to a 10 myself. Woo hoo!

i'm going to do the total sculpt with abs today. my favorite video. my tom finally came so maybe i'll start losing some lbs or inches after this! i thought my tummy was going to explode! i hate all the water retention.

I did not exercise this morning. I was very, very tired. And I already put makeup on. Don't make me wash it off. They'll send me home sick! (Of course then I could get in my workout. Hmmmm...)

Tomorrow I swear!

cori,

remember, the longer you wait, the harder it is to get started back again. i know, i've been there many times! take today to rest and then get back up on that fanny lifter!

I'm actually gonna take some measurements today also, so I can do the ten day thingie!

Instead of measuring myself, I'm going to take a piece of string and mark my hips measurement... I can't stand looking at the tape measure, either.

I did well today - haven't stepped on the scale yet! I'll work out this afternoon.

cori- I'm comin' to your office with a washcloth!

And a fanny lifter!

If you're coming over, can you bring me an LC lunch please???

Sure, cori... you're only in the next state. I'll hop in the car right now.
