  • Haha I'm not even into very provocative clothing but I would like to wear a tanktop like

    http://www.shirtsnob.com/pictures/skyhalterbraidedtrim.jpg

    Like that, it's so cute. (Except maybe just a bit less lowcut, but something like that)

    And I'm going to go for a two piece instead of a tankini.

    Yeah everytime she tells you to push it I do try a little harder, even if I feel ready to drop dead, I go 'Just a little farther' and even exhausted I'm still keeping it up :D It really is a fun workout too, such a great beat. (I didn't even know the songs, I like country music mostly, but the beat is really fun). I'm actually planning to try and get an MP3 player though after I get the workout down pat perfectly so I can listen to audio books while I workout. This way I can mix my favorite thing with working out so I'll like working out more.

    It is great to find another turbo jammer :) Specially since not all of us can afford their website.

  • I know! I love provocative clothing but girl when I am at goal I am going to be wearing a bathing suit every wear! And look hot doing it! Haha! I am so glad i found another turbo jammer i thought me and my mom were the only ones! haha! I love it and I know what you mean but every time she says push it I get a little fire inside and it says thats right push it! So i end up pushing it even harder especially in the turbo's when she says push it!!! 

    I actually really do daydream about being in the next turbo jam videos! I especially daydream about looking like them! I think that its great that it is working out so well for you! And you know when i was just doing turbo i lost 15 pounds in a month so now I really know I am going to make it! 

    Well its great to find another turbo jammer! Keep up you upper cuts and zig zags

  • LEllie, as sad as it is that our Mom's can be so critical, it is kinda nice to know others know how it feels :) I can't wait until her surprised turns into absolute shock and horror when she sees the 'immodest' clothing I plan to wear when I'm nice and thin (Like a skirt that only comes down to my knees! ;) Everybody gasp in horror lol)

    OH MY GOSH! Another Turbo Jammer! That's awesome! Yes she is very great, except whenever I'm exhausted and she's like "We have LOTS of energy!" I'm like >> oh she better be glad she's in the TV right now!" Hehe

    Yeah before you know it we'll be throwing punches on a video and telling people our weight loss success story! ;) That really would be quite an achievement, actually now I know the basic routine I've been like, trying to count out the steps to keep in perfect time with the video just for a little extra challenge for my mind. I think this is the best diet/workout routine I've been on ever. TurboJam and Slimfast! :D Works so well together.

  • Hey Jessicajoy

    I am so glad you didn't let her get you down my mom use to criticize how i was fat! At least she was surprised about your loss thats great! I am also doing turbo jam I love it Chalene is great! I am back on it again and started up my routine a week ago and lost two pounds! Your 14 is an inspiration especially not to fall off the band wagon this time! Pretty soon we can be on one of the turbo jam videos that would be quite an achievement! Well keep up on the awesome diet and work out! 

    Do The Twist haha! And Row Row Row!

  • Thanks for accepting :) And yes, must post to help keep others motivated!
    Thanks! I'm happy about it too heh.

    Oo I may have to check into vitamins. I'm not very fond of them though, and I am unable to swallow pills bigger than the round excedrin migraine. But I'll have to look into it. I know nothing on earth could possess me to try garlic pills, though I heard they near eliminate colds. (I'm like a vampire with garlic)

    Yeah, my major is Digital Media: 2-D animation for games. (I do graphics for and program games, I'm quite good at it I think.)

    How did the cleaning go? I hope you've been having a great week too :)

  • We're buddies now! Thank-you for asking me. We'll still come to this forum because we both need to share here with other members, too, but we can post to each other as buddies also....I'm so happy to hear you're starting to feel better! Soon you will be right back on track (keep the "shock" effect in the back of your mind. That alone is a motivator!  :-).....I used to get sick alot. Then about 15 yrs. ago I started taking vitamins regularly (Women's One-A-Day, Calcium, a Magnesium, Calcium and Zinc combination) and I rarely get sick since starting that. Can I ask what your major is?..........Well, I need to get some cleaning done, so I better go. You have a wonderful week and I hope you get feeling even better as the day/week goes on.....

    To everyone else..I wish you all a great week also and much success!....PAnn

  • Oy yes, having somebody to talk to makes all the difference.

  • Good job!!!! I'm so proud of you! It's communities like this that help and support people like you and me with cynical unsupportive people around us. Keep up the good work!

  • No worries about your spelling, I didn't even notice.

    Thanks :) I'm starting to feel much better tonight, so I'm hoping tomorrow it will be over. I know what to blame for my summer cold though, I was homeschooled from age 9-18 and I never got sick. Hit college, and my immune system has been getting a workout. I get sick 2-6 times a year now. I think my immune system has to adjust to being around so many people almost every day.

    Haha thanks again :) You make me feel so much better about my embarrassing family. It is easier when you remember that everybodies is a little disfunctional.

    I do live at home during school. My school doesn't have dorms, only shared apartments nearby. They are $500 a month + utilities, and you share a tiny apartment with 3 other strangers they match you up with. When I found out I told myself 'I think I'll pass on that...' (I don't even make $500 a month most of the time. And whenever I have a part time job during school, my GPA drops :( It took me a near perfect semester to bring my cumulative back above 3.80. I really want to graduate with a 4.

    Oh my gosh! That's hilarious! That really sounds like fun :) I can't wait to shock um all with the halloween costume I want to wear.

  • Hi Jessicajoy. I thought I'd check my email before going to bed. I hope my spelling isn't as bad as my last post the other night.. When I get tired it all goes down hill.....I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well. It's a bummer to get a cold in the summer..You're doing good maintaining your weight while you're sick. Once you're feeling better you'll be back on track and losing again. You've done really well thus far...I know what you mean about dysfunctional families. I think that's a majority of familes now days. We all have something, or someone. I am fortunate to have my daughter. We get along pretty good, not that we always see eye to eye, but we love each other and talk thru things. I can also relate to some of what you mentioned, too ( I am the mnother of 2)...Hang in there. You're in college, so you are an adult. Try to ignore the sarcasm. When the yelling starts, try to walk away..Do you live away from home during school?......................Keep the "shock" treatment in mind. That's what I did. It was great when we got back here from AZ and people were very shocked at my transformation :-)    My husband  had told people we were at my "Fat Farm" for the past 4 months!!

    Well, I better get to bed. Take care and get well soon...PAnn
