I like cabbage stir-fried but it’s very easy to overcook if you boil or steam it. Which tends to be the way it’s served in England.
Salad sounds lovely. Mmmhmmm!
Must add some of those ball things to my glute circuit.
I could watch you doing glute exercises all day. 
Nice work on the diet and the NO CIGS! You are a rock star.
you guys are nutty!! But thanks…
I felt like a big goof doing that reverse hyper thing…
The second vid is a ball tuck.I feel like it hits the ‘lower,’ abs pretty well.
There is a sale going on…and I really want to get a swimsuit!

But I have no clue what would fit best…I’ve read that if your ‘hippy,’ as I am, then boyshorts are a no no?
Advice, suggestions?
THANKS!!
You are insane and inspirational at the same time! The diet and the working out at home and being a single mom and getting a training business started…I get tired just reading about all your doings!!!
Reverse hyper action looks good. I’ve been trying to work up the nerve to try them at the gym.
I bought some diet orange pop today to try your cream-sicle protein shake.
I love cabbage. Sauteed some red cabbage with onion, olive oil, and sea salt tonight and tossed with some salmon. Not exactly food porn but good.
I think the boy shorts you posted in the vixen thread were smokin hot! (classic mirror pic)
as with everything else you are the exception to the rule Mimkins.
yes your ball needs more air lol. nice legs! i might give that last exercise a try for abs. need stuff other than planks… i hate working abs…
Cal- ball things are good 
Kimba- ditto
And yes, no Cigs!! Tuesday will be a whole MONTH!!! :rockhands:
Grny- insane? lol
I really don’t FEEL busy. Sometimes I think I could be doing MORE. I’m not the only ‘single mom’ in the world whose hubby is deployed. We do what we gotta do.
Ppuff- JUST DO IT! I wouldn’t recommend the bench method. It’s HARD! Hands on floor first…wish I woulda thought about that. Or get a ball for at home if your too shy?
Did you try the shake? I’m making mine with root beer next…
Alexus- I don’t think of it as ‘training abzz,’ but strengthening the core. you should give ball planks a try to freshen up the regular plank. Makes it a lot harder!
N. you gave me an idea and I think I solved my ‘what style swimsuit should I wear,’ dilemma…
pics incoming…
so it’s not a true ‘bikini,’ which was my goal…but I think I’ll feel most comfortable in something like this. It shows just enough(more than ever for me!), but also covers up areas I am shy about still. Unless, there is some rule about who should/shouldn’t wear boy shorts or shorty shorts or whatever you want to call them?
pics are kinda blurry…oh. I got a full length mirror.yay!
A couple more inches off here and there + a tan and I think I’ll be set.
Lol @ rockhands - \m/ \m/ <— learned that from Inky
love the swiss ball vids! Next I challenge you to do the SB pike
I agree, boy shorts looked great! Buuuuut, i thought that your undies bottom on the St. Patty’s day pic looked REALLY good too! They made you look curvy in all the right places - accentuated your teeny, tiny waist. A bottom like that with a nice supportive halter top will look smashing! And i totally think you’re ready for a 2-pc and fully expect pics of it. kthx!
Not awesome new stretch mark? wth
can you get those things when you LOSE inches? or is it when you shrink they just stand out more? I didn’t get any on my tummy from being pregnant, but there all up my hips…just really light in color.
Mashy- \m/\m/ Thats COOL!!!
mirror pics are one thing…but I don’t feel ready to strut my stuff in public…still got some inches to lose, etc…but in the meantime I’d feel rockin in my boyshorts and not feel awkward and not constant adjusting or trying to cover up. I am pretty modest after all.
I’ll let you wear the thong-kini this summer and I fully expect pics. kthx!
Oh! I posted while you were posting! Yeah, i totally love this look! And I like these bottoms - esp since you want the coverage. What’s good on your body (imho) is that you don’t have a bottom that goes too high in the front - so these are PERFECT!
Seriously, an inch here or there? bollocks! Girl, you have leaned out a ton! You look awesome!! You’ll be the envy of all at the pool this summer Way to go!!!
ps. yes, you do need a tan. hahahah!
Woot! You look awesome MiM <3

Kool Bikini Bettie ~
You and me could mebbe get a deal on some tanning sessions, no?
You had me at cayenne
You are doing well at this diet stuff lol
I think people try to make diets so monotonous with “chicken and broccoli” 5 times a day
Bump that, I love my some homemade healthy pizza
I also love my low-carb cheesecake. yum
I vote yes on the boy shorts, especially if you are more comfortable in them than a standard hi-cut bikini bottom.
Not even I would wear a thong-kini. There has got to be something covering up most of the cheeks IMHO.
The boyshorts look hot on you MiM. Not very flattering on me. Yes, I am the chick on the beach/by the pool in the brazilian bottom or thong. Just works better for me. You should rock whatever makes you feel sexy and confident.
I love all things green too! (No surprise from a veg, I know.)
