    Can someone explain to me where they are getting the under 1,000 Calories or less on her method? Perhaps I am missing something. I agree that 700 cals=starvation mode, but I am just starting her hipcentric/metamorphosis program tomorrow and plugged all the first weeks meals into MFP and came up with 1,204 calories. I don't want to be unhealthy....am I missing something?

    I just bought the Mat & dance workout DVD's so those should be coming in this week. We'll see how it works out!

    I've done her post pregnancy workout (even though I'm not post pregnancy or any pregnancy) as it was a more managable cost than the full program and I do enjoy it. I'm not able to do the "dance cardio" section of it as my downstairs neighbor doesn't appreciate the jumping around (don't blame him).

    I've tried the Mat DVD a few times and it's good. I have a hard time making it through all the reps without pausing, but I'm guessing that's the point,. :wink: to work up to doing all of it without needing to relax for a minute. I like that I feel like I got a full body workout and my heart rate up without it being a high impact workout. I burn about 500 calories for the whole video.

    I just tried the Dance Cardio DVD tonight and really like it! I got through learning combos 1 & 2 and only did combo 1 full speed for the full song. That alone took me about an hour and burned about 650 calories. It was not at all what I expected, which was kind of an aerobic jazzercize class, just moving the whole time. But it was more like how I used to do dance auditions or practices for musicals.
