The only part of BeachBody that I have used is insanity for Xbox. It really works but it is expensive for the DVDs. My friend did the 21 day fix and it worked great for her. I don't think the shakes are worth the money that you have to dish out. Something like $120 per month. My brother did the p90X and that is working…

I just completed my first month of strong lifts this morning. I changed a few things though. Instead of using the bar to do the overhead press and the rows, I use dumbells. It was better for me that way. I was doing another program before that and they used the dumbells so I just continued with that. But you should…

I am happy for you that you've made this choice. Good luck on your journey.

Good luck! you can do this!

I think you're doing great. Get a food scale, you have no idea how much that helps. It makes a huge difference. Try not to be too low on calories, I had mine at 1,000 and that was way too low. I'm at 1,200 now and I eat back all of my exercise calorie burns. Also, don't over estimate calories burned during exercise.

Fantastic!

I drink 1 cup of skim milk mixed with lots of ice and 1 scoop of GNC Pro Performance AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60- Vanilla. I struggle to meet my protein goals and that is 20 grams per scoop and helps me hit my goals everyday. If I could, I would rather try to meet my goals through food but this is where I am right…

Just buy wide calf boots! Most of the name brands make them and they're the same style as the regular boots. I recently found this out and bought three pairs this winter.

@slideaway1 yeah Insanity is super hard but I love the way it makes me feel. I work so hard during the entire workout. But since I've added the strength training, I find that I look forward to that more than the insanity.
-
@shoulilveshappy yes I do because I want to make sure I am not going crazy on the calories and under on the protein and fiber @slideaway1 My routine is insanity-lift-insanity-lift-Rest and repeat. So basically four days on four days off, about three days of lifting a week. Does that sound about right? I'm really just…

Incredible...just wow!

When I first started, I drank Slim Fast for two meals for about two weeks. I was eating so much prior to this that I just wanted to get use to not eating so much. Eventually I went down to just one Slim Fast meal a day and two healthy meals. Now I drink it once in a while. I don't knock Slim Fast because it did help me.…

Fantastic! You look Amazing!

Thanks for all the info! I have a lot of research to do!
-
@Sandra_Curtis Wonderful! You look great!
-
@Silverqueen Congrats! And you're beautiful
-
LOL @jacksonpt I get it though. Which is, in essence, what I really wanted anyway.

@Azdak So if a person was running three miles at 4mph and was able, over time, to increase their speed to 5mph, but still only ran three miles; wouldn't they be burning more calories? Because I am doing the same workout routines but I am able to do more reps of each activity and able to continue through without taking…

Very Interesting...I had no idea. So I am right, I am working harder but it is just not showing that I am.
-
So basically, its better to under estimate than over estimate. My HRM shows the least amount of calories burned so I guess I'll use that instead of what MFP or the online calculators say. And from what I gather, there really is no great way to calculate calories burned?
-
@May_Rose I wish I could copy and paste your arms onto my body!
-
@hill8570 Nope its just a basic monitor. It shows me what I am burning as I am progressing. I am assuming that Insanity is considered Calisthenics, is that right? Because when I put it into the MFP exercise calculator, it gives me a way higher calorie burn. I just feel like I'm putting in more work and getting less of a…
-
@brianpperkins so I shouldn't use my heart rate monitor as a calorie counter when I do insanity? What should I use?
-
Fantastic! Good job!
-
Congratulations on your weight loss! Keep it up! What is the challenge? Is it to see who can lose the most weight between you two?
-
You can definitely reach your goal Angela. Keep up with tracking and you'll succeed. Good Luck!

@jenncornelsen I had to google search it, I was wondering as well 1 Stone = 14 Pounds
-
Wow, it must be trending! My two year old has been waking up at least once, up to four times per night. It is so hard for me because I work out at 5:15am. (My husband is smart, he puts in his earplugs from the shooting range before he goes to bed, he doesn't hear anything) Last week when she woke up four times I just…

Hi! I'm Carmen. I am a Probation Officer. I have a six year old daughter and a two year old daughter (going through the full blown terrible twos) I've just been able to start back up with eating healthy and exercising. I lost about 50lbs after my first daughter but gained it all back after my second. I'm in the middle of…
