I don't know what it is about this week. Maybe I just tried to "stay in it" longer than before...... whatever it is, I got my *kitten* handed to me this morning with Plyo Cardio Circuit.

May not lift this evening...........whew!!!

    feeling some frustrations this week. i think i gained weight last week. i don't understand how that could have happened as my TDEE is around 2000 and i am only eating 1800 at the most... so it doesn't make sense.
    so then why? argh...

    anyway i felt really irritated today because the cardio abs dvd keeps breaking toward the end, it won't play the last 2 minutes but i know it's just the up and down plank thing and then a stretch... it just annoyed me the last time and even more today because i really don't like when my dvd's break. i am hoping there are no other bad ones because i have the whole set of month 2 dvd's to get through and i haven't checked those yet. i got my insanity off of ebay and even though it's a legit copy i'm not sure how i'd get them to replace it if it was broken for real.

    i also did cardio abs first again and i'm glad i did because i was so exhausted by the end of pure cardio that there is no way i would have done it if i did them in reverse.

    before my workout i made the mistake of eating some steamed cauliflower/pea pods and had some horrible bloating and felt like crap like a balloon the entire time i was doing it...

    so yeah, not a great day for me... but i have cardio recovery tomorrow so here's hoping that's good. oh, and that one also seems to skip out toward the last 30 seconds... i am going to be so annoyed if i have a lot of dvd's doing that in month 2.

    I really am sorry about your DVD skipping I hope that is the only one that does that. THis is why it's stronly encouraged not to buy on Ebay or Amazon because nothing is guaranteed. I made this mistake when I bought my first Beachbody program too and paid the price. If you had bought from BB directly or a coach they would replace any DVD for you that didnt' work right for free.
    I am not sure if they can do anything for you since you did buy on ebay but you could try calling customer service and see. The number is 1 (800) 470-7870.

    Enjoy your recovery day and try not to get too discouraged. Hopefully you will feel recharged after today and be ready to pick it up again tomorrow!

    Don't feel bad!! I gained weight last week too, I got frustrated but I am not letting it get to me. I actually wanted to throw the scale out of the window. Then I realized...I am getting healthier and I can't let the scale dictate the way I feel. Yes I went up a little but I am getting stronger everyday. Keep looking forward!!

    I made the same mistake today with the vegatables. I had steamed broccoli!! I guess we live and learn.
