Join me! Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme hybrid starts today!!!

Hey girlfriends!!!! Well, I spent 3 hours at the hair dresser's yesterday! LOL.......I had a lot of hair to cut off! She ended up taking off about 12 inches!!!!! That's a whole foot! Crazy!!!

Hurry up and post those pictures! Can't wait to see the new you.

Gdivant - thank you for your kind words! AM workouts aren't for everyone that's for sure. In fact, when I tell people I get up at 4:30am to get mine done I mostly get either blank stares or looks of horror! :laugh: Just like finding your soulmate workout, you also need to find the time that works best for you so you stick to it.

Cheers to a great weekend! :drinker:

I have been in a major slump this week too. i haven't done to good on eating and I haven't pushed play. I am hoping to start over fresh on Monday.

C'mon Girls I know you can snap out of this slump. Everyone goes through them once in awhile but how long you allow yourself to remain in that state is up to you. You guys are so close to achieving your goals so don't stop now. Our little band of shrinkers don't quit. Do I need to roundhouse kick you in the butt?!?!??!!!!! LOL!

Love you both and just want to see you succeed! Deb, follow your dreams girl. If you're making enough with the BB thing to sustain the wait and you think that's really your heart's desire then there's more to life than grinding the gears to earn a paycheck. Take a good look at where you were before BB vs. where you are now...what does your heart tell you is the right decision? I know you'll do the right thing for yourself. I'm here for you if you need to vent.

Ok enough pep talk...today I did TF 45 EZ and Bodybugg said I burned 425 calories. Too tired to join my husband and puppy on their morning walk but will be out there with them tonight for the 2nd one.

Hope you all are having a great day. Push play y'all...you know the results are worth it!

Alright girl, let's make a pact! Let's both of us make sure we get back on the wagon and push play Monday and start fresh! Deal?

DEAL!!!!!!!

Hmm - I guess I didn't click Post Reply on my message last week - cause I don't see it!

Anyway I'm here! I took few days off due to knee pain and PMS blahs. But I'm still pushing play, and I'm seeing some results. I went on a fad diet before finding TF and "lost" 8lbs, but my body fat increased 10%. I only wanted to jump start my diet, but I gained all 8 back when it ended. And I was way more jiggly than before - even though I was exercising. :grumble: Now with TF, healthful eating (honestly logging calories - even the overages) & patience my body fat is back to where I was prior to the fad diet fiasco.

Good luck Prixy & Deb on your interviews, that's wonderful news.

I'm on vacation for much of this upcoming week and will traveling, so it will be challenging. I'm going to cut myself some slack, relax and enjoy my family. I plan to weigh on Monday and NOT gain over the next 7 days. I hope to squeeze in some exercise, maybe drag my sister along for a walk or two while I'm at home.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

would these be something that you are able to do in an apartment? I really would rather not drive my downstairs neighbours crazy if at all possible

I live in a second floor apartment with neighbors above me and below me. I've been doing Turbo Fire/Chalean Extreme for a few months now and I haven't had any disgruntled neighbors banging down my door telling me to quit jumping around. I don't wear shoes during the cardio workouts tho and I'm careful to do the plyo moved in one part of the floor in my living room because it doesn't squeak when I jump. But other than that, I've been fine with doing this in an apartment. I just move my coffee table out of the way and you don't need a ton of space. I don't do it first thing in the morning though, i workout around 6pm during the week and around 10am on the weekends. So maybe if I was jumping around at 6am, it might be a different story... haha

Also, I did pretty decent with the Thanksgiving dinner at my friend's house yesterday. I stuck to one plate of food with a small scoop of each thing I wanted to eat. I kept it to 2 beers and one cupcake only for dessert. For dinner, Randy and I went to a sushi place in Dupont in DC and I actually ate raw fish. I never had before and it was pretty tasty. So we ate pretty healthy for dinner, and then I had a few drinks that night. Overall, I'm happy with how I did. And with how things are going with Randy. We had a little chat this morning and we're definitely dating exclusively now

Hello! I thought I'd join your group. I'm on the last two weeks of CLX, and I just ordered TF tonight. I plan on starting the hybrid in a couple of weeks. I have lost 90 pounds in the last five years (with two more kiddos in there), and I've been stuck at 155 for a year. I am hoping this hybrid will help me get to my goal weight or at least closer to the body I want.

Can I ask about results of your doing the hybrid, anyone? I know everyone's different, but I am so frustrated with being at the same weight and my waist not shrinking.

Thanks!

Hey Amy! Welcome to our group! I'm sure you'll love the hybrid, it's definitely a good way to break a plateau. Personally I had it break a month long plateau when I started the hybrid and I've continued to lose weigh and shrink my waistline since. When I started the hybrid, I think I weighed around 165 and I was in size 12 pants. Now I'm 153 and I'm just about in size 8 pants! So the results are definitely possible. I started the first week of September, so that change is all within less than 3 months. I'm hoping to be under 150 by time I finish the hybrid (in about 6 weeks), possibly closer to 145 and fitting into size 6 pants

Good morning everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend!

I decided yesterday to just do the Turbo Fire program for now. I am going to wait until the new year to start the hybrid. The reason being that I definitly need to buy some extra weights as I found with some of the CLX workouts that I needed a higher weight that 10lbs...and I just cant afford to go and buy some new weights so close to Christmas. So I might actually put this on my Christmas list for Santa!

So that being said I decided to start from Week 5 in the TB schedule ( from the book) because I have been doing TF since the beginning of Oct. I also decided to stick to this schedule with adding some yoga classes to it...I'm not going to do any extra workouts because like I said earlier I have been feeling run down and with all the things on the go for Christmas I just cant afford that.

So this morning I got up and did Turbo Fire 55ez...burned 601 Calories!! Woohoo!! And I dont feel too tired as of yet!

I am excited to being the hybrid, but I want to get the full benefits out of it, so its bettter to wait!

If you all dont mind I would still like to keep posting here!

Have a great Monday everyone! Only 5 weeks until Christmas!!

( hope your interviews went well prixy and deb! I'm wishing you both luck!!)
