    I use it and don’t see any increase in strength I mean how long do you use before you know or before something is measureable like this

    Hi I am Jessica. I have 2 children one is 19 and the other 11.
    In 2006 when I had my son I literally cried at the weight I gained and also how my stomach looked it was similar to yours (probably worse). I share this picture with you because I know what it feels like to feel like you are feeling at this moment. The best advice I can give is to carry on and continue to see changes. Small changes turn into big ones. That picture took me about 9- 12 mths and I had to change my thinking as well. You need anything or a chat happy to help…
    I went from not understanding fitness to competing and winning my natural pro card. I never thought that could happen not to me, but I am super proud of it …
    Cheerish every moment of your journey. xoxo

    The app can be paid or free. The unpaid version doesn’t save your timers timers the paid one does. I use seconds pro I don’t have any issues with it but I have the paid one. Hit the plus on top right to create timer then select HITT
    I do high for 30 sec and low for 135 the rest is warm and cool hope this helps

    thank you. The HR monitors are driving me nuts. I know at one point Nicole did a thing with Polar. They have a New A370 that I would love to have but its so expensive. Anyway she is doing anything like that again with them? I really did like my polar much better than this Wahoo app and strap I am using now? Which HR monitors do you like?

    I think it could be the quality of oatmeal too. I used the Bobs Red Mill oats and mine did not fall apart and they are rolled oats.

    I am not a coach but noticed in the summary of workouts it says body weight walking lunges but in the video they are weighted I did 50 lb barbell because that’s what I was doing so I don’t think they would mind us challenging ourselves I would do weighted
    I guess see what they say.

    Just want to ask so : If I don’t want to eat sweet potatoes with Lean ground turkey as it says I can eat lean ground chicken and brown rice?
    Mix and match kinda thing.
    Can I switch any carb out/protein?

    I like the idea of thinking as meals in boxes it is a great one Nicole and it is helping me alot already.
    Sometimes it is easy to grab anything but I was able to get Perdue Lean Ground chicken at the super market and it is so good. Tip for everyone I grabbed one and it said LEAN and the other said Fit and trim the one that said LEAN had 9g of fat per serving and the other had only 2g per serv.
    Read your labels … sometimes little ads on the front of a package are not what they seems. Spagetti squash is the best too!
    Just rambling but thanks.
