    Some solid advice ladies 🙂

    I've personally had the best luck (and have physically felt the best) eating clean. My body doesn't feel like it's missing anything and because it's such a blanced way of eating, I have ENERGY! 

    The eat clean website is pretty inspiring too, whether you want to take off 100lbs or just the last 5lbs -10lbs, the online community (much like this one) rallys together to cheer eachother on and help eachother out.  (www.eatcleandiet.com).

    I don't really know why it's classified as a "diet" as it's not something that you do for a few weeks until you lose X amount of weight, only to go back to your regular eating habits. It's kind of a lifestyle change.

    Love the fact that the recipes are pretty much twists on everyday things you'd eat, with a few more exotic recipes thrown in for good measure.

    Just an opinion 🙂

    Kat – a six pack for mothers day is probably the best gift ever 😉 You should definitely post some before and after pics!

     

    Reyn – What a great compliment! I've seen your pics and i'm sure that you're a stellar dancer! 🙂

    The best/easiest snack before or after a workout (assuming you're not allergic to tree nuts of course) is an apple and a handful of almonds, a great source of protein and natural sugars to get you feeling like you aren't about to faint 😉 haha Sounds lame.. but it helps so much! I put an apple/the almonds in my bag everyday thinkging I won't eat them and low and behold, they're gone by the end of the day.

    Reyn! That's a busy day! Hope you're taking a day off to recoop and let those muscles rebuild 😉

    As for the boobage, my are shrinking too.. but most likely for other reasons as I just stopped taking my BC pills after being on the for 2 years.

    I think it's normal for a bit of shrinking to happen. If you're working your body out frequently, you're obviously burning fat, which is what your "ladies" are made up of for the better part. 😉 I don't think they'll disappear on you though not to worry!

    I feel your pain though… quite literally haha i've been doing 1+ hours of pole and 1 hour of yoga/splitz stretchng for the past three days on top of a pretty heavy chest and upper back work out yesterday afternoon. Time for a rest day?? I think so! 🙂

    How is everyone else doing?? 🙂

    You'll get there 🙂 Just keep trying

    I'm in! 🙂

    I started an Eat Clean plan on March 1st….but i'm RESTARTING it as of Friday haha too many slip ups!

    I'm also doing 30 days of yoga for 30 mins for flexibility.. maybe i'll extend it another month and see what happens! It's definitely been helping! Almost into the splits! Yay!

    It's tone up time for sure!!!

    More than happy to lend some support! 🙂

    Go team!

    Great story Scarlett 🙂 don’t be sorry at all! Your passion for pole really does show in your dancing.

    Great thread peachpop! It’s a great way to gt to know veryone and their unique stories 🙂

    Hmmm…. I’d really wanted to try poling for a long long time. Watched YouTube vids for eons but never wanted to go it alone. Girlfriend after girlfriend bailed on me after saying they’d check it out but I just kept on watching and waiting. Finally one of my gals said yes and actually followed through! Thank god cause I absolutely love it and signed on for a year membership after two weeks of class. Loved the classes but wanted to work on moves that our teachers weren’t teaching, so I bought my first pole in November followed by another pole in december. And now here I am 🙂 not a spectacular story really, but I have always loved all forms of dance. There are some days that I work on purely floorwork and transitions 🙂 pole and floor work make me feel strong and confident. And as a bonus… My boyfriend loves to watch 😉
