I'm not following the meal plan...just eating good. Any carbs I eat are whole wheat/grain (rice and the occasional lunch sandwich)..double veg for dinner...no red meat (lots of chicken!). I have been STARVING in the morning hours since I started the program!! I am fine with just having lunch and dinner, but I wake up starving, and 2 hours after having a sensable breakfast, all I want to do is eat, eat, eat until lunchtime. Then i'm good haha. I just usually have fruit and granola bar as a snack in between. Angel, at least you're doing something!! Sometimes you have to ease yourself in at your own pace. Good for you that you're trying! Soon enough you'll be right on pace! I have been going strong so far with my start so far! It is really helping having my bridesmaid doing it along with me. We motivate each other alot!

Are these dress long or tea length?

Thanks for sharing!! I was thinking about buying something like this from Oriental Trading, but maybe I'll just print them instead!?

haha yesterday (cardio) he was talking like arnold schwarzenegger lol We are on day 3 today!! My body certainly feels like I should be on like day 10 haha. My biggest challenge is that I have always had constant upper back pain, so this is only making it worse. I am just hoping that after awhile these exercises make my back strong enough that it won't hurt anymore! Has anyone felt like maybe they might not be able to do the ab ripper on day 3? My core is killing me!! I know yesterday I struggled when he had us go back into the superman/banana and the drea roll (which I really can't do lol). Regardless, I'm excited for arms today!!

oooh some of our favorite quotes from Core Synergistics today: "Love it, love it, love it til daddy takes the t-bird away" - WHAT!?!?!?! I can't remember when he even said that, but it was at the beginning somewhere "Go on, stir the soup...I'm thinking of soup right now..I got Lentil" -- LOL!! cool down, when you're doing the arm circles! Better believe we had our OWN quotes for him!

Yeah, I'm excited that I have someone to do it with me. We definitely pushed each other through everything and joked around during it (about some of the shit that guy says lol), which helped make it go a lot faster and easier! Cardio tomorrow!

Ok ladies!! Day 1 down!! My one bridesmaid is going through the program with me, and our legs feel like jell-o!! We are thinking flats to work tomorrow?

Erin Have you found the suits you are getting for the groomsmen yet!? We bought my FI's linen suit and the groomsmens matching linen pants from JC Penney and they are very nice. The pants were $24.99 and the matching jacket was $69.99. Plus I used a coupon code, so I got the whole suit for around $80! ...and yeah, our budget went up $2-3000 in the past few months by adding so many little things I didn't think of :oP.

Ahh! Congrats for getting started! I'm excited to start in a few days, but worried about that jello, broken feeling!!! I need to go buy my weights and bands today..

Wilma will most likely be your coordinator. Her email is -- [email protected]. Don't be suprised if you don't hear a response for 1-2 weeks.

Ok! I think maybe I'll start Sunday with you!?! We can keep each other moving!

Hey girls!! I changed my mind on the hair flower i'm going to use, so I am going to sell the one I originally purchased. All together this double-flower clip is about 5-6 inches, so a very nice size. It has an alligator clip on the back that will slide on easily. I am hoping to get $10 plus shipping for it.

Oh and I just noticed you are a June bride too! If you start by next week you will be done with the whole 13 weeks right before your wedding!!

Yay!! Start with us, we'll try to keep you going! I'm starting this weekend at some point! I've had a crazy week and am leaving town Saturday to Sunday, but I'm going to pick up my bands in the next day or two and get started either Sunday or Monday!

I still need to pick up my bands! I was told I might find them at Target?? I'm going to look at what my weights are that I have at home, they might only be 3, so I may have to pick up a set of weights too before I start. There are not enough hours in the day!!

Ahhh!! The BD shoot!! I forgot about scheduling mine! I have been so busy with everything else it slipped my mind. I have THAT to motivate me too!! I was planning on using 5lb weights...lol so good for you with the 8 and 10!! I have weak arms!

I am getting married in June also and already have all of my places reserved. I probably did that about 5 months out just to make sure I got everything I wanted.

Did you all pick the specifics like that (location of ceremony and reception) before you went down there?

I agree!!! It's so exciting though!! I love being the one who is getting married soon, instead of being the one that was jealous of all of the girls on here getting married in 2010!! ) Anyone do anything new since our last chat!? I ordered my hair flower from etsy and the seller made me matching ones for my bridesmaids, so that's done. My girls bridesmaids dresses just came in Tuesday, so I'm exciting to go pick them up next week! I may have decided on their shoes too. FI's suit came in last last week and just needs a few minor ajustments. I also purchased all of the starfish I'm going to need for various AHR things and the guy's boutonnieres. My girls and I started working on the AHR invites last weekend, so those are slowly getting done as well (although I feel like addressing them in going to take longer than making them!!!) I'm starting my P90X workout schedule on Monday, I'm a bit nervous about it!! The 13-week program will take me up to less than a month before the wedding!

Yes, more calories are definitely burned with the Lean program. Oh my!!! My colleague was showing me the list of stuff that is in the core synergistics cd and my jaw was like on the floor lol Good for you for starting today!!!!!!!!! Keep going!! Maybe I'll start tomorrow instead of waiting til Monday!?!?! I guess I was just thinking that it would be good to start on a day off (which I have monday).

I know!! I had no idea! After talking about it more it sort of seems like the Lean program is geared towards women more?

I have seen huge starfish at AC Moore. I am looking to buy a few there to put on my chairs as well. I am thinking I'll hot glue large pins to them to pin to my satin sashes.

Great to know!! This is where I am having my reception! We requested to be out on the terrace so it was a little more private.
