oh, i have to wear sleeveless down hear or i'd die!! i'd just like to be more comfortable when i wear them. i can't believe how fat my arms are!

i don't have the old tapes, only the new ones. the "pose" sounds kind of corny.

Um... shelf bras don't cut it for me. But I did see an ad for a tank that had an underwire bra in it!

can't do shelf bras either - D-cup. i wish i could. they sure are cute and convenient. you'll just have to enjoy them for those of us who can't wear them!

I will! Actually being a C I generally wear a light shirt over them, a little self conscious, I guess!

Another bonus of working out with weights - those arms will firm up - I promise you!!! I vividly remember last summer, I was driving and I went to scratch my arm. All of a sudden I thought, "Damn - is that MY arm?" So toned! LOL! It was a great feeling.

Here's to us D-cup gals! <--- I couldn't jump around like that without my Champion bra. Actually, half of me is a D, the other half is a double D. Makes bra shopping a challenge.

I will be home tomorrow evening. Firm tape on the menu for Wednesday morning before I go back to work! Hold me accountable!

Stay off of trampolines - you might put an eye out!

can't wait to see those muscles in my arms!! i can already see my biceps getting more defined but i'm still looking for those triceps. the other day my 8 y.o. decided to take my arm and jiggle it we were at red lobster). he said "mom, you're arm is too jiggly!" good thing he's so young! nothing like a child to keep you honest. i told him i was working on it.

cori, we'll check in with you wednesday. hope you're having a nice trip.

Ok, cori. You have to report to me before work on Wednesday! Here's the deal... if you don't work out, you don't get to put on any makeup for the entire day. How's that for accountability?

Iowagirl - you're right... trampoline+kmarie=black eye.

uh oh cori. that would be a tough one for me. this southern belle was taught never to walk out of the house without your makeup on and your hair done - and it stuck! i feel naked without it. wish i could ditch it. takes too much time and costs too much money.

cori, if you need encouragement let us know and we'll help push you up on that fanny lifter!

anyone do their firm video this morning? i'm going to do the video for arms and the one for abs later one this morning.

The plan is to work out this afternoon.

OK, I'm making a deal with myself and with you guys. I'm going to work out with The Firm tapes for a month, and I'm not going to step on the scale at all. I rely on the scale too much. At the end of the month, I'm going to try on my skinny jeans, which I can get on and zip up, but just barely.

I go overseas on August 9. Let's say that I'll try on my jeans the week before that.

Keep me honest, Firm friends!

sounds good! the scale's not budging for me anyway. not losing inches either. i'm going to keep exercising and lcing and hopefully something will give soon!

Day,

I figure that if I keep using the weights, something's got to budge. I look at pictures of myself from this past New Year's Eve, when I'd been doing The Firm for about a month, and I see how much thinner I was. I know it'll go if I keep it up.

The plan for today is to do TT2 and day two of 5DA when I get home this afternoon. I'll let you know how it goes!

K
No scale - day 1

kmarie,

thanks for the words of encouragement. i plan on hanging in here and doing my firm tapes. i know i'll see results soon.
