    Checking in....did Ramp It Up today. I already notice a difference in my fitness level. I can do it much easier this week. Even though I don't do it everyday I am becoming more fit. I need to order the next level up. Mine is older and only goes to Ramp It Up. I am doing the Skinny Saturday Challenge so I need to get another workout in. I am thinking about getting shreddy this afternoon! All the best! :heart:
    Happy Mothers Day weekend all!

    Callie - When I was giving it my best, I burned around 375 during BIU and I logged mine under low impact aerobics.

    I'm hit & miss with the food diary :wink: , but it does get easier - especially if you tend to eat a lot of the same foods.

    And yeah - I am actually having a ball SO FAR :wink: with P90X, today was Day 6 with Kenpo - unbelievably fun!!!!

    I'm going to give my best and log everything in for the next 2 weeks and it should be complete.

    Keep pushing play and having fun!! :smile::wink: :smile:

    Those of you who are doing Slim in 6, how are you tracking your workouts? I have no idea how to calculate how many calories I've burned if I add the video as a new exercise. Any advice is appreciated!

    When I did Slim in 6, I counted all the workouts except Slim & Limber as "aerobics, general" and S&L as "mild stretching," and that worked really well for me. Hope that helps!

    HI sam52 :smile: I took scoobees advice and I log it under low impact aerobics. Are you just starting SI6?

    Hi everyone - if there's still any SI6ers left. :wink: Thought of you guys as I popped in BIU this evening. Yeah, what happened to my P90X?? Well, I missed 6 workouts in a row (don't ask lol!!!) and since I only made it to day 7 :grumble: I might as well start over; most likely next week. Felt like doin' some DS, and I sure missed cussing at her during the leg lifts. :tongue:
    Hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday!

    Hey scoobees :smile:

    I'm here... but SI6 isnt part of the plan lately.. to much going on.. with the extra pre HS graduation activity!

    I am in hope of getting back to DS before June hits!

    Congrats on 7 days of P90X kick *kitten* w/o's! It was only a pre tester... right !?! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
