OMG, you are on a roll. I can sense some serious determination here. How are you feeling? Anything in particular motivating you?

Awesome :heart:

THANKS, mermaid! I'm glad that my determination shows. I feel GREAT and am loving being back in my routine!! :elephant:

I think starting a new year, making resolutions and re-evaluating my fitness goals is really motivating me right now. I have a couple of challenging weekends coming up in Feb (weekend trip to Miami, friend visiting & staying with me etc.) so I know I have to get in gear and prepare for those curveballs while I can.

Have a wonderful weekend, girlfriend! :heart:

Isn't it a blast to do a group workout! :) Makes the time go by sooo much quicker and it's a lot more enjoyable. Glad to see you're able to mix things up a little once in awhile. Keeps the cardio from going stale.

Hey RT! Just a thought, but have you thought about really kicking up the calories on your cheat day? It helps give your body a good shove. Ever tried it?

Looking great! :)

Hey SG! If you read my log last year, you knew I binged at all my weekly cheat meals and totally kicked up the calories. I actually think I managed to undo a few days of clean eating with that so I'm trying to do it a little differently this year. I started a thread about it earlier and was given some sound advice by Sassy and a few others to just eat till I'm full on cheat meals without pigging out.

Of course, there will be those special meals and weekend vacations (the next one is coming up on Feb 10th) where I'll just let loose a little....thanks for checking in on me! :)

Well, not necessarily pigging out all at once until you feel like a stuffed pig (although I do that sometimes lol), but more than just one cheat on your cheat day. It was just a thought.....I didn't know it was something you have already tried......and it doesn't work the same for everyone. I'm glad you're seeing results with what you're doing now! :)
