Hey guys! Got my deluxe dvds, love them!! I did Burn 1 on Saturday and decided not to do Burn2+3 this week just to get a little break before the Push phase (my favorite!) However, I did the Lower Extreme from the deluxe set... omg BURN. My butt was on fire, LOL!! I did Upper 20 (TF) and HIIT 20. So not much of a break,…

Welcome Rachel and Mainegirl! Mainegirl - it's great working out with your daughter, wonderful support system. You've been through a lot, good luck. =) I wear a HRM, so I don't really log my exercise. mmtier - enjoy your uninterrupted workouts! ;) I'm about to knock out Burn 3 and I think I'll do Jillian Michaels 6 Week 6…

Did Fire55 from Turbofire today. So much fun! Bev - those numbers are awesome! great job! Welcome Laura! CHEERCHEERCHEER on the burn Sharon! =D

Burn 2 + Ab Burner. EVERYONE is doing amazing! It's great to see. ofc - Congrats!! Glad you got the go ahead on the program, I wish I had worked out with I was pregnant - I wouldn't of been so hard afterward to take off all the weight.

Started week three with Burn 1 and some yoga, hope everyone has a good one!

ceelove - I completely forgot there is a schedule for the turbofire/chalean! I was just doing taking it day by day, LOL. Thanks for the reminder! Bev - congrats on finishing the Push phase!

Hey everyone!! I'm finishing up my second week of Chalean Extreme (mixed with some Turbofire) this week!! I used to be pretty active on the boards but have been away for awhile. I've done Chalean before and had awesome results the last month when I cleaned my diet up to near perfect. Hoping to keep myself on track this…

Second Chalean Extreme. <3 that series. Bob Harper's Pure Burn is AWESOME and a total killer, it's full body and my butt it always sore the next day. LOL

LOL I felt like crap while doing Insanity, but felt like a million bucks when I finished a workout!

I'm still a beginner with supplements and vitamins, but all the rage is fish oil. I just started taking 1 GNC Triple Strength a day. I also take a multivitamin daily.

You could give it a try and if you start feeling too bad just stop. It may help you feel a little better. Just take it a little easy. =)

I would mix Shred with Power90. I've done both and they're both pretty good! I agree with Kath, after so many days of Power90 it gets very boring. There are only 4 dvds for the whole program. So you could get Power 90, and also pick up a couple of Jillians dvds to add the mix if you get bored.

I do use preworkouts. Personally, I would suggest to anyone to not take any pre-workouts. Depending on your personality, it can be tough to workout without them. (Which is my problem!) I use Superpump. It's pricey, but effective. No anxiety or jitters.

I wouldn't double up on Insanity. Just keep continuing where you left off. It's a tough program, you should be just fine. =)

I've never heard of Armour. I've been on Levothyroxin for years now. good luck with switching doctors, that's very crazy she wanted to wait 4 months after start a new dosage and pill.

It depends on your activity level and what MFP has suggested for you now. I wouldn't go under 1700 calories when doing Insanity. You burn a lot of calories and expend a lot of energy doing the workouts. EDIT: BTW, I have hypothyroidism also, found out when I was 16. =)

Highly suggest investing in a HRM. You'll never know your real calorie burn until you get one. I'm almost on week four of month2. I'm doing a P90X/Turbofire hybrid. Good luck with P90X!

Well you can always modify and shorten to your needs. However, there is Chalean Extreme which is a great prep to P90X. The original P90 is also a good prep, but it gets very boring. (Four workouts for three months) Chalean doesn't have nearly as many pushups and no pull ups. I loved Chalean Extreme and got awesome results…

I've done it, and I love it! It's challenging, you're going to sweat like a maniac, and afterward you'll feel fantastic knowing you made it through. Highly recommended.

Very nice! I am SO sick of hearing the same phrases played over and over and OVER again on TV.

Normally when you first start drinking a lot of water, you'll hold onto it. I would give it a few days. If those 3 lbs came overnight, I wouldn't worry, it's the water. =)

I think this is the article that was sent in one of the recent American Thyroid newsletters. http://www.nelm.nhs.uk/en/NeLM-Area/News/2010---December/14/Taking-levothyroxine-at-bedtime-may-be-more-beneficial-than-taking-it-in-the-morning/ It's about taking thyroid at bedtime. I've been doing this for about a week. I get my…

I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism at 16. It is very difficult to lose weight and change your body. I lost 55 pounds by eating very clean and healthy. Even short relapses (even just a few days or week) into bad eating habits and not exercising made me gain a pound. So it can be difficult, but losing weight can be done…

Well it depends on your fitness level! P90X is definately advanced, but can be modified to make it more or less challenging. Insanity is extreme cardio. They're both awesome programs. Most Beachbody programs are great, especially since they come with the whole package - extra tools for nutrition etc... Then you could…

They are very pricey! Pretty much all they do is suppress your appetite and give you energy. The energy is equivalent to drinking a few cups of coffee. A lot of the time weight that is lost will pile back on when you're finished taking them.

If you want to workout at home Beachbody has awesome workout programs.

That's a great idea about the lettuce!! I like to cut up all my veggies and preportion them so I when I get home I can just grab them and toss them in a pan.

Chick fil a also has healthy options. What you could do is take a couple hours out of one day of the week to plan meals, prepare them. If you have a fridge at work that's a great place to put your dinner. If not you could freeze meals and heat them when you get home. Also, I don't know what time you have to be at school in…

LOVE IT! =D
