Look Divine From Behind
Here's an excerpt from Yahoo articles that I wanted to share with you.
Jillian Michaels, trainer extraordinaire and new SELF contributor, also thinks jumping lunges are a fantastic firmer. "They just blast the heck out of your glutes while working hamstrings and other muscles in the legs." Try this sequence one to three times a week after your usual cardio plan. Quickly do one set of the indicated reps of each move; rest 90 seconds. Repeat up to two more times.
MOVE 1: 20 squats
MOVE 2: 20 lunges, alternating legs
MOVE 3: 20 jumping squats (in a fluid movement: squat, jump, squat)
MOVE 4: 20 jumping lunges (lunge forward with right leg and jump high. While in the air, switch legs and land with the left leg in front. Continue, alternating legs.
If you have knee problems or any lower-body injury, try step-ups, which tone glutes 59 percent more than squats, according to a study by the American Council on Exercise in San Diego. To try, hold a 5- to 8-pound dumbbell in each hand, then step left leg onto a bench. Step down on right leg. Do 12 reps, and go slow to avoid injury. Switch legs; repeat.

A Healthy Cheat for Dieters
How to cheat (a little) healthier and article I wanted to share with you.
By Alison Johnson
How to cheat (a little) healthier
---
Almost everyone needs to indulge once in a while, even people on a diet.
Here are some ways to limit the damage, nutritionists say:
Keep it occasional. There's nothing wrong with a little "cheating."
Whether it's once a day or once a week depends on your weight, health, overall diet and activity level.
Eat the real stuff.
... If you crave ice cream, spoon out a half-cup of your favorite flavor and stick to brands with an ingredient list of just cream, sugar and milk. Avoid additives and realize that many low-fat options are high in sugar.
... and the good stuff. Get one reasonable-sized portion of what you really want to satisfy a craving. Choose the best-looking cookie, candy bar or slice of cake rather than a big bag of "ordinary" sweets.
Add healthy foods. Top ice cream with fruit or nuts, or mix candy such as M&Ms with pretzels and nuts. And eat a piece of fruit at the same time.
Mix salt with fat. Adding a little healthy fat - peanut butter, avocado or hummus are some - to snacks such as pretzels or tortilla chips will fill you up, slow digestion and (hopefully) help you stay in control.
Drink wisely, part 1. If you want an alcoholic beverage, try sipping one during or after a nutritious and filling meal (think of it as dessert). You're more likely to overindulge - and crave junk food - during happy hour.
Drink wisely, part 2. Sip water between bites of an indulgence, while chewing the food slowly.
Be smart about munchies. Pretzels and baked potato chips are examples of tasty snacks without artery-clogging trans fats, which are in regular chips, cheese curls and many crackers.

I'm in These Shorts!!
See more of my videos at LoseWeightNowTV
I'm in some shorts I could not wear last summer and they are loose now too. I am in some shorts I could not fit last summer. I am so happy! Keep moving, you have got to exercise, you just have to. Plus I feel like I have more energy too.
Wish List
