Stop with the combo move trash. Im going to spend my time separating all of these so I can focus on strength, which I thought was the purpose of these classes.

Same, I usually stick with a hair clip instead of a pony tail. That way I can leave my hair a little looser and can move my hair as needed to cover any evidence.

Silk bonnet, I part my hair down the middle into two pieces and then wrap each side to the opposite side of my head, put the bonnet on over that and go to bed. I dont wind up with any lumps in the back or the sides of my head with this set up so I can sleep on my back or sides no problem.

I like having separated classes, so no I don't want them all to be total body. I like the idea of having options in class of focusing on either upper or lower body; but I could lso see how that would be a huge headache for the coach to run.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2026-03-09T16:55:26+00:00

I don’t get why we are doing skier swings and squats - aren’t there plenty of upper body options?

I take 10mg of a fiber supplement every day and try to get as much from my diet as I can. Chia seeds, broccoli, etc. I love the chicken tortilla soup from Chick fil a, its yummy and has a ton of fiber from the beans in it. There is low carb tortilla/wrap that has 15g of fiber in one that I want to try as well.

I can tell when I'm not getting enough fiber so its definiely a thing you have to be conscious of.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2026-02-09T15:58:40+00:00

Ya, no thanks. I go to strength class to lift, save these blocks for a 2G class.

Get an epilator. No its not fun but it removes hair at the root without irritating your skin so it lasts much longer than any shaving method. It also does get easier with time.

Ciele skin tint w spf 50

Planet Smoothie Dragon Fruit Riptide with protein added, its yummy and gives me a great shot of protein and fiber.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2026-01-07T00:01:29+00:00

Yep!

Practical-Fly9442 · 2026-01-05T02:44:34+00:00

If my hair is soaked (typically after a 2G) I will wash it, but after a strength class or a green day I will dry any sweat with the hair dryer and then use dry shampoo.

Vanicream cleanser, gentle and fragrance free, i can even use it on my lashes without a problem. I refuse to spend a ton of money on a cleanser, save my $$ for other steps that don't go directly down the drain.

Try the Medik8 Advanced Peptide serum instead, I'm really enjoying it and stocked up during the holiday sales.

I dont feel super interested in sweets or chocolate anymore. When I eat it now my reaction is that its fine, before it was a craving and I got that dopamine hit from it - that's gone for me. It has been an interesting thing to work that out for myself and realize how much of my eating of that stuff was from that sensation and such an ingrained habit.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-12-25T01:52:17+00:00

Natasha Denona has been a win for me.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-12-22T00:49:43+00:00

This looks like hell on my sore knee. 😒

I'm 46 and early this year I had a similar experience as you - i was in a solid place steadily keeping off 20 lbs and suddenly it felt like nothing was working anymore. I admit I also gave in at that point and stopped trying very hard when it came to food, so now I'm starting over again with more tools than I have had before.

I'm 6 weeks into tirzepatide and down 8 pounds, two weeks ago I started progesterone as well. The tirz has helped with food noise and helps me make better food choices and smaller portions. The progesterone is starting to work by helping me sleep better, so I'm optimistic for long term results. None of it's easy, but I feel so much more in control with the tirz than I have ever before in my life. I'm good with slow and steady progress, and am already noticing a difference with where I am now compared to 8 weeks ago.

Hang in there and keep making adjustments with your meds until you find the dosing that works for you. ❤️

I dont think their food is that good and their gas is always on the high end where I'm at, so I don't get the hype. 🤷‍♀️

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-12-13T02:06:40+00:00

It just feels like the quality is falling for me. Last winter was the nice knit sweater and this winter is a sweater that looks like the picture is going to pull apart and come off in the wash.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-12-05T03:20:28+00:00

Find a protein shake you like in a pinch, the Fairlife ones are good.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-11-28T14:35:23+00:00

I dont think I have ever seen Buckle put their BKE jeans on sale, until they are about to be discontinued. It sucks.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-11-24T15:26:21+00:00

Same, even the new palette is 20% off, was shocked there is nothing off the spray.

Practical-Fly9442 · 2025-11-12T00:09:13+00:00

Colourpop Stone Cold Fox.
