thx i will have to try them after i am done this new one i just bought. I am interested in trying a fat burner though, but have no idea what the real difference between the 3 i listed are and which one does what... i am confused the more i read about them,lol
-
thx. can you message me after and let me know what your thoughts are. i just got a new protein powder so i am going to just use that for a few weeks and then maybe get into one of these, so by then you will have had some time with it. I am just trying to lose more body fat and yes more energy as well as i also workout…

i think it depends if you have stopped growing or not. i was always small and had no hips at all till i was around 21 or so ( around 30 inches). Then poof, my hips started to spread ( went to 32 /33 inches). i was still the same weight but my hips spread a few inches. Then they stayed that way for years until i had my son…

what is the differnce between a blend vs 100% whey... does one do something different then the other? just looking on the gnc site and they are the same price. 34.99 for 2 lbs. i was looking at promasil, gnc, jay robb and ON....
-
thx. I went for Optimum nutrition just because it seems to get good reviews.. I am new to this stuff and still learning... this stuff was on sale like you said and it was 45 bucks for 2 lbs. i do think ON was 36 on sale last time i looked so i guess a bit more $$$... I made my first shake and was very impressed, it was so…

Yes I do track my body fat, I use calipers, online calculators and I have a hand held thing too. Of course it bounces around too as it depends on your weight, etc. I doubt it's muscle as I find there isn't much for weights in x3 and that us what I was doing. I started p90x3 late jan and ya I did have a interruption when we…
-
your not alone. it happens to me too. i have almost wanted to give up at times because it's so frustrating. this year i have had NO luck, gained 4 lbs, gained 1/2 inch on my hips and my cellulite is starting to come back.. ugh.... not sure if it's just the exercise i am doing is not the right kind for me or if i am eating…
-
my measurements went up this month too... i have been doing p90x3 for 2.5 months now and i'm up 1/2 inch on my hips......grrrrr
-
sorry the pics are so big, i tried to make them smaller but it doesn't seem to be working?
-
This was me at my goal weight of 120 @ 5.2 ft. This is me 1 year later at 118 lbs
-
that is what i did all of last year and it worked! yes it's a SLOW process but it does work! i loved the changes in my body composition after it. made visible changes in pictures even though i didn't see them myself in the beginning.. That is why pics are so important....
-
i agree, even 5 or 10 more lbs won't change it. it will still be there. You do just need to focus on working on a very small deficit and strength training. My goal was 120 and i got to 113 and still hated the way i looked as it was just body composition and body fat that i needed to lose... I have been working on that for…
-
wow amazing changes. your waist is so tiny!!!
-
ya i thought about body revolutions but on another board i am on so many said that it's light weights with lots of reps.. not sure if that is what i want or heavier and less reps..
-
they are too long!
-
thx for that. hummmm so not a stand alone program they say? I wasn't planning on completely re doing the entire program just to add in some strength from gamma? maybe i'll start off with beta and not alpha, get 4 weeks of beta in and then go to gamma? i was hoping it was something i could just do on it's own in between…
-
haha, thx. ya i did a search last night and was reading up... I am just not finding x3 as fun nor am i getting results... so i think it might be time to move on. i loved t25 but never did the gamma part as i thought x3 was a better bang for your buck program. well if you are not looking forward to it, then it doesn't…
-
i have been debating getting gamma. i finished t25 in the last fall and loved it... then i went back onto clx until x3 came out. i have been doing x3 all of this year so far ( with a few interruptions ) but i am not finding i am getting results... so i have debated gamma again as i loved t25. i am just not into x3 as…

hello, well with being a low weight already it is always hardest to lose those last few lbs that we don't like .... If you really want to tone up you will need to do strength training a few days a week. For abs, it really is about clean eating. soda yes is not great! and those tv dinners are high in sodium... when he is…
-
yes more patience. unfortunately it's the last place for most of us to lose from. I am still struggling with getting rid of the last bit on me for over a year now. It's hard. You need to do strength training plus have a super clean diet to see results.
-
bump as i would like to hear others responses too as i am 5.2 ft and around your weight and body fat as well...
-
i hear you!!!i am 5.2 ft and i have maintained for the most part over a year but i still can't get my pooch down! I am only focusing on lowering my body fat for along time yet it seems more difficult then losing the weight!!!
-
i am short too 5.2 ft and i never lost anything my 1st 2 months. I also found i always get swooshes.. don't lose for a while and them BAM shoosh, i lose. it's is frustrating, as right when you are fed up and want to give up, bam, i lose,lol.... it took me a whole year to lose 20 lbs! so glad i never gave up though! i have…
-
well i guess you may lock this thread since heybales was very helpful giving me some advice. I am going to try to eat more for 2 weeks and then re evaluate where things are.
-
i didn't see results on the scale till almost at the end of 2 month, right when i was about to give up! i get swooshes all the time, will sit still for a long time and them bam, swoosh! give it more time, keep doing what you are doing and log everything and you will see that change soon
-
will do!!! thx for all your amazing help!

Ya I usually gain a few lbs on vacation as it's normally water weight and when we get home it come off in a week or two. We were away for 12 days. This boast trip we went on a week ago we were gone for 7 andbibonly gained a lb but then I had 3-4 lbs still on me from the last one 2 months prior. I only got down the week…
-
I have to say no. When I did clx I was eating a min 1500 to 1600 daily and with x3 it set he at 1500 and I got from so many to lower my casks since I had been gaining weight this year. I gain 4 lbs on vacation over New Years that took me 2 months to get off and that only lasted a few days yet. So I got from so many to…
