Beachbody Thread 6 (Insanity, T25, 21 Day Fix, 80 Day Obsession etc)

PS Reastie you need all the friends and support possible right now if we help in any way do still post here too.

Reastie that sounds really awful, are there any support groups on here? Take it one day at a time sounds a crap thing to say but I guess that is all you can do for now, hope your dp is looking after you x

I voted for you reastie. Fingers crossed. Sorry you feel so awful. I’ve been trying to think of suggestions for you but I don’t have any . Have you tried posting on the pregnancy board if only for solidarity.

Plink - that’s exciting!

Thanks, there seems to be an issue with the voting as it keeps going weird, must be those Halloween gremlins! Felt so desperately bad yesterday I considered asking for an abortion, this is awful.

Haha thanks yum the link worked for me so Reastie you're all voted for 😂😂 fingers crossed eh?

Purple I'm slightly envious of your mental mettle there... hills make me run away from them 🤣🤣 they're great for cardio I know but I just can't. My head isn't able to get past the fact I'm going up a massive hill 😂😂 so well done!! Well deserved treats tonight!

Yum I know... weird right? Well still no sign of it today. I'm feeling the worst I've felt in ages though that could be down to my terrible nights sleep. Nauseous, frequent trips to the loo, exhausted, achey and a bit teary for no reason. I don't know what we'd do if we had another one on the way. I didn't go back to work after DS. I know DP would take on extra hours, bless his heart, but I like to pay my way as much as possible. Struggling to see how I'd do that with no Maternity Pay 😂😂😂 ah well, I'm getting ahead of myself. We'll jump that hurdle when we come to it. Trying not to get too excited just in case it's nothing 😂😂

Gotta love any excuse for a piss up a good Halloween party! 😂😂

I think this page has the link that works www.mumsnet.com/Talk/site_stuff/3398116-AaahhwoooooOOOOooOOOOo-its-the-Halloween-name-change-spooktacular

scratch that - linking doesn't work. Plink, search Halloween names 2018 and that brings up a page with a button to select your favourite name.

Reastie that sounds really awful, I'm so sorry the medication isn't having a bigger impact {hug}

Here is a link to vote for Reastie your favourite {coughs} Reastie

Enjoy your hols Purple, and very well earned wine and chocs!

Roman - you can do it. Even maintaining now for a while will be fantastic, and actually maintaining is harder than losing. I am right back where I started weight-wise and really pissed off with myself, but I am fighting losing battle with hunger hormones I think.

Oooh Plink! Surely not more phantom pregnancy shenanigans! I know this isn't the case for me as haven't lost weight or been exercising enough, but exercise can affect cycle esp if you suddenly lose a lot of body fat, think it happened to someone who used to post on here. Exciting if you are pregnant though

Had dd's birthday and halloween party this weekend and fell behind with workouts over the weekend. Hopefully on it tomorrow.

Reastie that sounds awful. I had bad morning sickness (puking multiple times per day until 25 weeks) but nothing like you have. It felt endless feeling so ill. I wanted to punch anyone who said anything about pregnancy being a beautiful time as it really isn’t for many people.

Did a super hilly run today. I do this one a lot when we’re on hols (we always come to the same place) and managed to run all the hills so felt good about that. Now sitting down to undo all my good work with wine, chocolate and cheese

Won't let me vote Reastie. Don't know why? Doesn't even give me a button to press to vote... or did I do it just by clicking your link? 😂

Ohhh, I’ve made it to a finalise in mn Halloween nn competition. If you fancy cheering me up and voting for me here’s the link

Thank you for the sympathies. Plink fwiw I actually have quite bad emetophobia so this is an actual nightmare for me. My new normal is spending most of the day lying on the sofa. Usually this would feel indulgent but I’d give a lot to feel normal! I miss being able to do BA so much, it feels like a lifetime ago already.

purple Yer Ab Intervals 😄 I love holiday eating. I go totally overboard with it but I enjoy the gluttony while it lasts 😂😂 it's nice to not be conscious of it for a week. Couple of.years ago, DP and I went to Mallorca on AI. Boy did we take advantage of that one 😂😂😂

Oh god Reastie you poor thing. Just an awful, awful feeling. I hate feeling sick anyway, as in, will go to great lengths to not be sick, almost afraid of it. And I remember feeling pretty miserable. Sounds like you've got it very bad. My GP saying "Well, it's good in a way as it means the hormone levels are strong, which means a strong and resilient baby in the womb"... I raised an eyebrow at the time and begged her to give me anything to help 😂 can't remember what it was called now... really hope they kick in soon Reastie. Have you tried all the useless other stuff... ginger (this ended up making me feel nauseous in the end) etc.? From what I remember the only thing that soothed it was pretty much continuous snacking 🙄

Incidentally, my body has joined in on the phantom period chennanigans. I'm 3 days late atm. I'm regular like clockwork. Did a test but it was neg. So I'll wait until the 7 days mark. Was feeling very nauseous yesterday though and a bit crampy today so we'll see. It could be the exercise? Never had that happen before though 🤔🤔 last time I was late with a period... well... Was because of DS 😂😂😂

Yeah definitely Roman 😂😂 jump right back on it!! You can do it! Is there anything you've got that's super easy to cook? Frozen chicken in the freezer, Some frozen veg... I'm a big fan of mushy peas atm. Super tasty, low in calories, good micronutrients. I'll whack it in with a bit of fish and hey Presto, delicious food. I find my eating gets worse when our cupboards start getting a bit bare 😂😂😂

Thank you for your lovely comments and even yumy having a phantom period in my honour! I’m not doing so well, have been sobbing a lot as feeling so so sick so much. I went into this that I couod cope if I couod get the hard drugs this time. I have the hard drugs but it doesn’t feel any easier than last time. I don’t know if I can do this. I thought the drugs would help more than they are and I’m barely 6 weeks. I’ve been signed off work indefinitely and haven’t been able to look after dd all half term, I can’t tell you how terrible I feel. Working out is a distant dream and I’m having to eat food I hate because it’s all I can manage. My tummy feels so unhappy with me for all the junk.

Enjoy the rest plink. Is ab intervals on t25? I have no weights this week so cardio only. Did speed 2.0 tonight. Yay! Maybe I’ll give lower focus a go too.

Eating is out of control (but in a holiday type way!).

Hi to everyone else too!

Roman I didn’t realise you had lost soooo much weight. I knew it was a lot, but I hadn’t realised how much. Have you had to buy yourself all new clothes?

Ooh hope you have had a lovely first day Purple where are you off to?

Well, I did have a post workout snack but that was it. I did both workouts in the end... Lower Focus and Ab Intervals. I was bloody shattered by the end 😂😂 no workouts for the weekend now. I've earnt my rest 😂

How have you all been doing?

Stay strong on the eating plink. Normally I’d say I’d join you and we could tough out the first 2 days together but I’m going on holiday today so I don’t think it is realistic.

Can’t remember when I last posted but I’ve done triometrics and the challenge in the last 2 days. Dh also challenged me to do 25 press ups without stopping so I did. He was

Did Cardio 2 nights ago. Rest day yesterday. Tonight it's Lower Workout and possibly the Abs one but I don't usually do two workouts in one day. See how it goes.

Knees are still getting stronger. Can really feel it. I'm making sure I really take my time with them and starting to increase reps now 😄

Need to get back on the IF. Scales are creeping up. It's always the first 2 days that are the hardest, I find it so hard to resist the night time snacks 🙈 But I'm saying it here now to give me some extra motivation. No snacks tonight. Just water or green tea. No snacks!

Haha glad you like them Yum 😂 it's pretty unique. Everyone looked at me like I was mad when I said it 😂😂

Plink I love your posts I know exactly what you meant but slightly jealous never to have had that myself

Roman - that is whats currently happening to me I am getting heavier and heavier. It just creeeeeeeeeps on. Well if current steady 2lb a week is creeping I think I need to accept I have 2 options - either cut out all junk, white flour, chocolate etc or log on mFP properly every day FOREVER. It's weird though I think the exercise is tonning me but my tummy is humoungous.

Just read that back... what a moronic statement from me:

"Never felt anything like it which is how I knew it was different"

Dear, oh dear. I meant that's how I knew it was really special/different/pregnancy 🙈🙈🙈😂😂

yum globe jumps 😂😂😂 bleddy hate them. How do 4 jumps only count as one rep? 😂😂 another frog move 😂

Oh yeah it was so tickly. Well weird. Never felt anything like it before which is how I knew it was different. Hope I get the same with baby no.2 (in a few years 😂).

Roman bloody hell!!!!! That's phenomenal! Well done!! 35lbs in 6 months. You must be so proud of yourself! Ah it's good to have a day off though. Cheat day! 😄😄 with Insanity I had a cheat day every week and loved it! All the bad foods 😂😂😂😂

ooooh core speed Roman - not sure if I have I done that one? If I feel hardcore enough at some point I could make that a 5th workout on top of HIIT4. I am going to do biceps tomorrow - agh jumping in a square thing is hideous - I can cope with regular squat jumps but not that!

Fantastic on your progress and lbs still coming off! You have probably lost more than the scales suggest because of the strength focus - if you were on a super low calorie high cardio regime you might lose more muscle.

Plink - bubbly tingles sounds like the best pregnancy symptom yet To be honest I don't think I could cope with a 4th any way - the 3 we already have are enough of a handful
