For the 9 minute missions, I made a poster mapping out the missions, instructions and space to track reps or # of circuits. Since I see the poster every day, I would feel terrible if I missed a mission.

Awesome! I'm glad you got the book. I have somehow convinced my husband to do the 9 min. missions with me! We started this morning and It was actually fun. I love that there are 20 different work-outs! I think he pushed me harder than if I were doing the mission on my own. I think I am going to be sticking with the Turbo…

Happy Birthday!! I just downloaded Chris Powell's latest book to my iBooks! Choose More, Lose More For Life! I'm excited, this has come at a great time for me, I need some extra motivation at this point.

I too have been MIA for the last month! I am back on track today and feeling pumped! Let's hope I can keep up the momentum. I am going to do 2 low carb days, 1 high, 2 low, cheat day then 1 high. I have been on vacation and just busy with life but I am not going to beat my self up for not following the plan for a month. I…

Thanks! I am 1 week ahead of you. I didn't lose any weight the week before my slingshot week. I also didn't lose on my slingshot week. But last week, I lost 5 pounds doing low-low-high-low-low-high-cheat. This week I am going back to every other day because 2 low days in a row are hard for me. I'm off to go do my Sprint…

Thanks Sarah! I had such a busy week last week and didn't get to post much on last week's chat. It sounds like everyone is doing awesome though! :smile: I was pleasantly surprised when I weighed in yesterday, I have lost 11 pounds in 5 weeks on this program! I still can't wear the next jean size down without a muffin top…

So, I just weighed in and I didn't lose this week! It was a sling shot week so I didn't expect to lose much. My Stats: Week 1: -3 lbs Week 2: -3 lbs Week 3: -0 lbs! Week 4 (sling shot week): -0 lbs! That's 6 lbs this month (on the CTL plan), I'll take it but I am a bit disappointed, I was hoping for more of a loss. I hope…

Wow! I don't log into my computer for a few days and this Weekly Chat already has 90 posts! I am really struggling with getting my gallon of water in this week. I usually drink 3/4 of a gallon but I can't seem to drink anymore. Anyone have any tips? @munecagirl22 Kale chips sound amazing! How long do they take in the food…

You guys are awesome! @how2winschola good luck with your slingshot week with traveling! 100 years is impressive - what's her secret? @babeinthemoon you are doing awesome on your weight loss goal. That is exciting that you are so close to the 50 lb mark! You can do it! @WIChelle I don't think that you can have a cheat day…

Today is Fun Day - Cheat Day for me too! I have been on the program now for 3 weeks so next week is my Slingshot week of all high carb days. Does anyone have any advise for me? I am going to plan and prep my recipes today so I am ready to tackle the week. I feel great! I even fit in a couple of Zumba classes last week in…

I just got that app! I will check it out! I have also been using the app Mealboard to help me plan all my meals. I wiped out the existing database when you first get the app and added my own categories: "Low Carb Meal", "High Carb Meal", "Low Carb Snack", "High Carb Snack" and "Breakfast". You can type in or import your…

I just lost another 3 pounds! (2nd week)

I will have to try your Black Bean Salad @babeinthemoon It sounds amazing! :happy:

My favorite snack on low carb days is the Cottage Cheese On-The Border. I modified is slightly from the book: 1/2 cup cottage cheese 1/2 avocado sliced 3 tbsp salsa

:wink: I am so excited about this plan because #1, I am in love with Chris Powell! I have watched every episode of Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition. I read Chris's book Choose to Lose twice to prepare for my own body transformation. I think the key to this diet is to be organized. I'm excited for this journey! I lost 3…
