    also did fire 45 today for 430 calories burned. also did CLX push 3 for another 180 calories and some very sore arms. I definitely don't have heavy enough weights for this circuit.

    fire 45 done! Didnt wear my HRM so just estimated my calorie burn under what MFP says. Glad I did my workout even though I didn't have energy.

    hi guy -

    today has been SO busy - i can't believe it' already almost 5 - seriously, where has time gone? i finally did Fire 45 aka 'the boom i've got your boyfriend" workout - i'm pretty sure i was more excited about the song!!! i love it - this workout is super fun!!! i'm still totally uncoordinated but i'm getting better. hurray for a fun beginning to week 2! tomorrow is HIIT 20 - am i gonna huff and puff or what?

    y'all had some great burns today! keep up the great work you guys! Love hearing about all your results -- Congrats to @carriecolleen on the inches lost.

    so i totally hid my scale in the back of my closet - i'm not gonna weigh myself until sunday - hopefully i'll have something good to report. i've also banned myself from desserts this week or just bad food in general. (i'm still feeling guilty about that dessert i had last week - it was 1300 calories *dies* :explode: )

    in other news, i am still sore from core.

    alright, i'm outta here ---> flowers for youuu :flowerforyou: have an awesome day :)

    Oh, THAT'S Fire 45! That's right... I do like that one too. Good job on hiding the scale; it's probably a wise decision. I am trying to cut down on the desserts too. I LOVE chocolate though, so it's really hard!

    Great job!

    Seriously, no HIIT workouts during the second month?? I wonder why... I like them too.

    Keep forgetting about this thread! So please allow me to rejoin :flowerforyou:

    Today was HIIT 20 and Tone 30 for me. My arms are feeling a little sore, but loving it. And I'm going to read that blog post from Chalene right now about not losing because I often feel down on myself for only having lost 3.5 lbs. I'm in week 10 now, so no turning back! But get discouraged sometimes.

    Have you been taking your measurements? Have you noticed a difference in how your clothes are fitting?

    FIre 45 & Stretch 10 done! That was a fun one!
    Except the stretching... I'm getting really bored with Stretch 10. Had to really talk myself into doing it tonight.

    Scared about HIIT 20 tomorrow... almost died doing the last one and it was only 15min. :sick:
    When do we get a whole month of no HIIT, that sounds great to me.

    R. Thigh: 24
    L. Thigh: 23.5

    Total Inches: 193.25

    Day 2 week 2 the scale isn't my friend it is my worst enemy. I'm very frustrated with the numbers that keep climbing up. I am basically watching all my previous hard work disappear. I have gained 15lbs since my husband returned from Afghanistan.
    I'm still plugging away hoping that the scale will start to go the opposite direction.

    So I just finished HIIT 20 and I'm not pleased with the amount of calories I burned so I'm doubling up and just popped in HIIT 15 which i will follow with either Core 20 or Either tone and sculpt. Hoping to get a bike ride in today as well. It's still early though.

    so, after all my excellent exercise yesterday afternoon, I was on call last night (I'm a veterinarian). I worked another 6 hours, basically from 6pm to midnight, and that included doing a c-section on a cow. After first spending an hour trying to deliver the calf vaginally before switching to c-section, I am pretty sure I burned another 500-1000 calories (but who really knows). I was sweating worse than turbofire and so sore today I feel like a bus hit me. I'm spending the morning on the couch trying to rest up after only 5 hours of sleep before going to work. not really feeling up to working out later (supposed to do fire 55ez), but thinking of doing a HIIT workout and maybe stretching if I feel up for it later. Just going to be good on calories, especially considering I was didn't really eat any of my exercise calories yesterday and pretty much got in a double workout. Will let you know how things work out with the workout!

    HIIT 20,HIIT 15, and a 45 minute bike ride = 715 calories burned; Still might do Core 20 but have to catch my breath Riding bikes in the heat going down trails is no joke.
