JOIN ME! 30 day Insanity/Turbo Fire hybrid program

Hi Sam, Lisa and Sharon!

Great burn ladies. I kind of wish I had a HRM or Bodybugg to know how many cals I am burning. This is definitely on my to do list!

I just finished Fire 30 and Stretch 10, and will prob do HIIT 15 in the evening.

I havent tried a Shakeology cleanse either, but definitely keep us posted on how it goes! I was actually thinking of doing the master cleanse in a few weeks, I have done it before, so I was thinking of doing it again this year and see if can do it. You feel great after!

Great job with the 1st day Lisa!!! I have a magic bullet and I love it!! SO quick and easy to use and clean up it nothing.

Sonia, great workout today!! you are doing great!!

Sharon~ Awesome burn also with Pure Cardio!!!

In a bit it will be my turn!! Post later

finished up Pure cardio and cardio abs burning 370 cals. I stopped and bought wrist weights and did Pure cardio with them one. Not so effective so I will try them tomorrow when I do TF 55EZ.

I cant wait to hear on the next few days go also Lisa!

Dont you all hate the "if everyday were like today you would weigh (insert # here) in 5 weeks."???? I do!!! Its frustrating!!! I makes me want to eat the same everyday for 5 weeks. I would be 10lbs lighter only a few lbs away from my goal. grrrrrr!!!! LOL

Nice job girls!

Sam - I think the gloves will be much more effective doing TF since there are so many hand movements and punches. I like using them a lot!

Sharon - awesome job with TF! I didn't burn too many today. Usually I like to work out before I eat, well I found out that's not so smart doing the cleanse. I had a serious lack of energy!! I just needed nutrients in my body.. nothing wrong with the cleanse I don't think. Just me not eating before.

I burned 440 calories doing 55 EZ.

Overall, I'm not too hungry. And cravings weren't too bad til I got hungry at school and started thinking about all the good tasting stuff. But now I'm home and ate my salad....... yum. . . :grumble:

But this morning I was 2 pounds down since starting. (I had regained some from my previous low). So maybe this will wipe that out plus another pound or two. I just really want to see the 180s on the scale by February!!!

I'm curious to see my results too. While the cleanse isn't too bad, I couldn't be happier that tomorrow is the last day. I'm pretty sure this really helped with my sweets cravings. The thought of my favorite sweets isn't even that appealing. Hopefully that will stick.

Today I only had 2 shakes though. I ate 2 bananas (1 in a shake, and added some frozen strawberries), chicken, a little cheese, 2 boiled eggs, and 2 salads. I know the cleanse says 4 oz chicken, salad, and fruit if you feel you need it.. but if I didn't give myself a little wiggle room, I wouldn't even finish lol. Besides, I don't think any of that stuff I added was too bad health-wise.

Hopefully it won't impact my results too much..

Thanks! Yeah, 3 days isn't much, but it feels like a lot more when you just start! lol At least I can keep telling myself now "just one more day!"

So far.. 3 pounds down. Hopefully tomorrow's weigh in will bring more. I'm so close to being out of the 190s.

I went to the gym today.. the girl I work out with was wanting to go, and I figured it would be easier to go there (energy wise) than attempt Insanity right now. I still worked hard and burned 579 calories in 55 min, and I didn't feel exhaused. I'm sure I would have felt rough after doing Insanity though.

Thanks, Sharon! Fingers crossed I will see a good number tomorrow. I'm so glad today is my last day!

I only got in 2 shakes today. But I ate some extra protein (deer burger) my boyfriend killed one and we had it processed a few months ago. I doubt I could eat meat much healthier than that. And I only had one salad today with my grilled chicken. Here's the breakdown:

Breakfast: Greenberry with strawberries... not very tasty. I need to find new recipes for this one. It's not as good as I remembered!

Funny how greenberry is better when mixing in water (without the blender), and now that I'm using the blender, chocolate is WAY better. I think what helped with it was adding more ingredients to weaken the chocolate taste some. It was just too strong for me before.

Lunch: Chocolate shake with strawberries and 2 small deer burgers.

Dinner: Grilled chicken and lettuce salad with light viniagrette dressing.

So far, calories total at 1055. I doubt I'll be eating anything else this evening. Just drinking water. I do not want another shake right now lol.


Also, my dog went missing in October. Me, my boyfriend, mom and dad spent so much time and money trying to find him (put out many flyers, sent 3 amber alerts, called all the local vets, shelters, etc.) He is like a human in our family, and like a child to me (at least til I have real kids.. well that wouldn't change anything, he's still my baby! lol). I've been broken hearted over his leaving for months now. I haven't gave up on hoping he will find some way, any way to return to me. It's been almost 2 months since we got a single call about him and I've been down about that too. But today we got a call and someone said they thought a local animal control picked him up. I hope they have my baby! It was too late when I found out to call the shelter, so first thing tomorrow I will be calling them.

Please pray it's him!! Nothing could make me happier right now. I miss that dog so much. His name is Teddy and he's in my profile pics if you wanna see him. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much (done that so many times) but I'm hoping and praying it is a miracle and that it is my doggie.

Lisa! that is awful about your doggie! And he is so cute!! My two are part of our family and just thinking them lost makes me tear up....devastating!!! I will keep my fingers crossed that he is there and you will be bringing him home tomorrow.

And what a great job with the cleanse...cant wait to hear what the scale says for you....I know you will be out of the 190's!! whhooohhhoooo!! And great burn gyming it today!

Sharon- great job with cardio circuit! And I am assuming Cocoa is in your profile pic with you and he is a cutie tooo. I added a pic of my two so you can see my babies!!

I wanted a little longer workout and I am pushing to lose 10lbs by time this is over on Sunday...lol.....so I did Max Interval Circuit and burned 468 cals. Good workout...pretty worn out after, but I like that workout.

Hi Ladies,

I was MIA for a few days. I had some really bad chest pains for the last 3-4 days, and I finally went to the hospital since I was getting scared. I kept thinking, Im 28, I cant be having a heart attack, but it sure scared me. Anyways, after all the tests and check up, the dr said I pulled my muscle and inflammed the muscles around my heart so thats why I have had that constant pain. I have never had that happen before, but my husband said its happened to him before as well when he is lifting too much. My doctor has me off exercise for this week, but I am going to walk in the evenings just so I am doing something. I am so frusterated, first I was sick for over a week, and now this. Its like as soon as I get my motivation and go hard, something comes up. But like I said, I am going to walk and still get my workoutsin.

I finally felt better today, and I missed logging my cals on MFP!

You ladies are so smart, weighted gloves! I DIDNT EVEN THINK OF THAT! I will definitely add those once I get to the last few weeks of my turbofire.

Lisa - thats so great you are doing a cleanse. I was thinking of doing the master cleanse again. I did it about 2 years ago, and the first few days were TOUGH, but after that, my skin was glowing, and I had so much energy.

Sam, thanks so much for the HRM advice. I definitely need to get one because I know MFP cal estimates are too high for me. Once I get the accurate number of what I am burning, I am hoping to drop these last 10 pounds!

Sharon - thanks for all your encouragement!

Wow Sonia! I am happy that it wasnt a heart attack, but a strained muscle isnt great either, but much better! Hopefully youll take it easy this week and able to come back next week ready to kick some booty!!!

I did Fire 60 this afternoon, wore the weighted gloves, sweated my butt off and burned 416 cals. Eats werent the best today, however I was still under cals. Smarter eats tomorrow

I saw 146.5 this morning on the scale....I am hoping that is sticks around so I can claim it on WI day. That would be SWEET!!!

Cardio Power & Resistance: 467 calories burned. I can't believe tomorrow is the last day of Insurbo!! :frown:

At least our group can still stay together though!

oohhhh! I dislike TOM!!! It ruins the scale! grrrrrrr!!! But Sharon, I am sure that the very next week it will go down even more so just keep that in mind if you dont see a lost tomorrow. And besides, 5lbs is awesome!!

Awesome burn Lisa!!! And I am sorry to hear that Teddy wasnt there...I am keeping you and him in my thoughts.

I did Max Cardio Conditioning instead of Cardio Power and Resistance. Burned 327 cals. I swear I work way harder then what my cal burns says. LOL

1 more tomorrow workout/fir test!! I wonder if I improved??? And then WI on Sunday. Excited for that also.

Way to kill it Sharon!! you got awesome results and as long as you lost inches then I wouldnt worry to much about the scale this week. Congratulations!!!

I am about to go do mine...will post in a bit!!
