  • I have issues with my knee also. I would cut out any jumping or high impact exercising until it gets better and slowly ease back into those things. Stick to the low impact things such as walking, riding bike, etc. I know you don't get the quick calorie burn with the lower impact but if you make it worse than you might not…
  • I know that when I was in this situation I just focused on my eating at first. If you can continue to eat healthy throughout your hectic schedule it will help you in the long run. Pack your own meals and snacks for the day...this really helped me cut back on the unhealthy foods. As far as workouts I know how tough it can…
  • I have the EA Sports Fitness Trainer and I really like this for the Wii. It has a lot of options for workouts and even a 3 week and 9 week program you can do. It is kind of tough but I think its definitely worth it! I also have Zumba for Wii and I really like this when I dont want a super intense workout but still a good…
  • I input mine as general dance.

  • The first day went pretty well. I was always very active in sports in high school and I used to HATE running with a passion but I'm hoping now that I'm doing for myself that it will be better! I downloaded a podcast to run with and it actually helped quite a bit. I think I might have to do week 1 a few times but that's…
  • i totally agree with this!! Before when I have tried to diet I did these things and relied on the frozen meals. Every time I was unsuccessful and this time I am cooking meals and learning to control my portions and eat healthy foods and it has been so much easier! I totally agree that we need to learn these things and not…
  • I used to be the same way! Switched from regular pop to coke zero and I didn't drink any caffeine for 2 days and it killed me and I totally crashed at the end of the second day but now I just have my coffee in the morning and water in the afternoon instead of teh usualy pop....I feel a lot better during the day and cuts…
  • Last night was my third day and already seeing a difference in stamina!! I still struggle some with completing every single second on the workout but waay better than the first day! Day 4 tonight and hopefully by the end of this weekend I will be able to do the entire workout! Keep up the hard work everyone!
  • Don't get down...keep going!!! Maybe try measuring yoursefl too and not just weight based. I have seen a lot of people say they didnt lose weight with the shred but lost several inches. And its only been 2 days of working out, dont give up! I'm a day ahead of you on the shred and I am struggling too because I havent seen a…
  • Tonight was my second night and yes this workout is a killer!!! I have been sore and tonight i almost didn't do it but so glad that i did! Hopefully it will get a lil easier but right now it is kickin my butt! Myworld what kind of protein drink did you add? I'm looking for a way to up my calories because i cant seem to…
  • I also LOVE the mexi-tatos....they are so filling! Last night I made the the Crazy -Good Turkey Taco Meatloaf and it was AMAZING!! I have never really tried ground turkey before and I couldn't even tell a difference. It was so filling and I'm only cooking for myself so I had plenty of leftovers! So glad there are books…
  • I used to get on everyday too but it just becomes too much when you eat right and work your butt off one day and either stay the same or "gain" when you know its probably not true. I am weighing myself once a week and it seems to be working a lot better for me motivation wise because I work hard and stay on track all week.…
