Anyway, my goal is a size 2! Ill be making another shrink video this sunday cus ill be 157 by than. My goal is 130lb! I use to weigh 233lb. I will not stop till im 130lb! Ht: 5'10. I could of made a video already, but its not about the video, its about losing wt! Congrads on ur loss by the way!
Just finished the 60 days of Insanity. It definitely was NO JOKE. I know exactly what you mean about being a slacker. I was that girl too! Once you get in the groove of it.. you just don't want to start. Now doing P90x. I can't wait to hear about your results. I love 19 llbs on the program! Stay blessed.
Anyways, I'm sorry if my comments bother you, that wasn't my goal. I relate to you, trust me, I had a similar weight lost and I partly gained it back, so I struggled a lot with the same issues. I stopped gaining (and being afraid of it) the day I decided to "let it go" and stop fighting. And yeah, I go to group meetings now, it might sound weird but itbasically changed my life; ( I'm not saying you need that though, I'm just sharing how I "recovered" from my obsessions.)
@agshole2 No your comments didn't bother me at all. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this with me. Whenever I feel down, or go back to slacker mode, I will come back and read your words of encouragement! :o)

3. I'm learning to love myself the way I am today. I'm still a runner, but I learned the word "acceptance" ; it's OK if I don't run today. I don't blame myself anymore.
4. I've been focusing on my weight loss for too long... forgetting the other spheres of my life, aka mind and spirit. I'm more than just a body!
And then someone made me realize I needed to calm down. That person told me: "Would you treat your best friend like this? No way, right? So why are you doing this to YOU, the most important person in your life?" It took me a while to get this in my little head though. And I'm still struggling with it. HOWEVER, I learned a few things since then:
First of all, sorry for my bad english... But don't let that hold you back please. I may sound silly but I'd like to share you my own experience.
I understand you cause I used to do that myself, that neverending circle: overeat crappy food, blame myself, overexercice, overeat crappy food, overexercice, blame myself.
You make a great point.. I went for my jug today and I was suppose to go yesterday and I was procascinating and I ended up not going. You look great, good luck thks. for the encouragment..
Yeah......slacker I am. I need to pull it out of me. I've been saying I'm going to start exercising and try to eat better. I haven't gotten off to a good start at all, BUT I know I can do it. So, my Sunday has to start 2Day! Thanks Amy I really needed to hear this and hopefully I'll start doing better!
I know what you mean..well i'm with you...you really inspire me..i'm trying to exercise more and looooooooose some weight...you're my model...go on girl and good luck!
Thank-you for this video. I am starting as soon as my DVD arrives (hopefully tomorrow.) I really agree with what you have to say. Please keep posting videos.
That is so true! WE have to want to do this, even if WE have to pray to get it out and just do it, sometimes we can be a SLAVE TO OUR MINDS, the MIND is like a PERSON, WE have to tell the MIND what to do, you can't run from it, WE have to say look here, you are going to do this and that's it if you don't do it I'm going to sit here and MEDITATE FOR AN HOUR, the mind HATE TO SIT STILL LOL!!! WE have to dam near BRIBE the MIND to do it, it works every time LOL...
I'm the same. But with weight and exercising. Ugh. Haha!
HOWEVER, I joined a gym yesterday with a friend and the monday is the magical day! I'm looking forward to it! I might even do a youtube vid thing as well, if I stop being so shy.
Kudos to you for doing "Insanity." I received mine about a month ago, and my Monday just came this week. I don't have my diet where it should be, and I can't do all the exercises all the way through; but I'm trying my best. Cheers to getting off the procrastination train. I'm trying very hard not to get back on.
Thanks for the motivation. I was sitting in my living room on my only day off this week and was thinking I am too tired to go running today and then I came across your video. After I watched it I got up, got dressed and ran 3.5 miles. I know that's not a lot compared to 13.1 but I have been there before and want to get back there. Thanks.
Thats a great idea!! I still havent started insanity because as you said...monday never comes!!! So i think I will start today :D then start over monday :D Thanks!
oops...I have been a huge slacker. I should probably try P90X and Insanity. Everyone is doing it, but I am a slacker after all LOL. I am going to dig deeper. Can I start tomorrow?
yes lol i also started today when i was suppost to start on monday (insanity) lol i am also a slacker that doesnt want to slack off anymore and yes tomorrow u are going to be super sore and the next day but then u get used to it =)
I'm working girl ! I just started the journey, so today is only my 2nd day in a row of working out. I know what you mean about having to dig deeper. But, I only have you to thank for inspiring me to get started. I'm going to have to drag it out of me tomorrow to work out. Best of luck to the both of us <3
girl ive been off on my days too and im on my 2nd round i feel so ashamed i just been mixing my workouts up jogging 3 miles everyday doin everything.. but im still workin out 2-3 times a day just not on schedule :/
depending on someone else is just an excuse ...well its day 2 now iv been on the boat and im still rowing yay , you video though still inspire me...hugs missy
@fakesmilesdarkclouds Definitely! I've been hanging back waiting on others to encourage me and although it helps tremendously, nothing will happen until I make it happen.
I really want to try Insanity I just have to find the best deal. Great video by the way sis you helped me out A LOT in my weight loss ya know. So this is a great vid to come back to when slack off. I : ^ }
@MsLeiiDarling I think I found the best deal.....Kim let me borrow hers! lol I saw it in Craig's list for $85 a few weeks ago. You STILL look awesome....looks like you've been hangingin there like a pro!
Girl you can say that again ... That day never comes ... You will be so prepared ... I'm proud of you ... See I'm starting to get bored and I think I might start my Insanity in May ... I'm not really support to start the Insanity until October ... but I think I am ready for a challenge ... Stay Fierce Boo ... You can Do It ...!!!!!
LOL@ PCC not being hard, girl even half those people on the video were dying!! Just wait till you get to CPR and Pure Cardio... not hard but very tiring and if you can do it without the rest, you're good!! Ok, nuff of the scare tactic LOL!! Glad you're still in it.. I have Cardio Recovery this evening!! Love ya!!!
@mzebony I guess I say its not that hard because it sorta the same intensity I'm used to when I take my gym classes (the instructors are not joke over there). I know without a doubt that I wouldve been able to hang in there and not get tired so fast had I not slipped up during the past few months. Now P90x?? Thats a whole "nother ball game :o(
@mzebony .....and yes, I'm a little scared of the next few Insanity workouts bc I have no idea what I have in store for me. But no matter what it is, I can only go up from here. I just have to keep telling myself that. I gotta dig deep and pull the fit Amy back out of me....she was a beast! lol Love you too :o)
@Misshaircare2009 Heck yeah its hard....especially when you know you can do it just can't seem to get started again....and again....and again.....etc.
You are great.
