  • Some Supplements that people use as fat burners are: 1. Green tea Extract 2. EC or ECA --- Ephedrine, Caffeine and Aspirin (you have heart issues so should steer away) 3. L- Carnitine 4. L- Arginine 5. L-Ornithine I think that there is some merit to any use of the above fat burners. If you look at some of the fitness…
  • Last meal of the day should be a protein shake with casein as it is a slow digesting protein and will cause your body to work 6-8 hours to break it down increasing your metabolic rate at night. An added benefit is that if you are anything like me the nighttime wrecks my diet. It is only when I drink my shake at night do I…

  • Ronnie said I "still kind of like I have been beaten with a metal bar" after pure cardio. This is exactly how I feel! I busted out laughing when I read this and said -" YES! Exactly."
  • Did Pure Cardio and thought I was gonna die. I stopped several times during the video. But its done. Also, today I took my before photos. I did this program over a year ago and didnt take the pictures and it was my biggest regret. This time I will not make the same mistake. Although it was painful to take the pics, to look…
  • D3, I would love to hear about your results. When I did Insanity a while back I didnt have a lot of weight loss but my body changed - drastically. What did you experience?

  • The mirror??? I even lie to myself about the mirror. I can see changes and I "think" I look good --- until I see a picture of myself. I am doing Insanity right now and the changes ARE amazing. But yesterday my husband took a picture of me as I was working out and it was depressing. I looked at him and asked - "Do I really…
  • Didn't lose anything. NADA! :sad:
  • Thank you all for the support. I don't drink the recovery formula because it is so expensive. I knew that this month would be tough - but this is incredible. After each workout I question if I can really do this. I need to know if this gets a bit easier. Even just a bit. During the first two weeks of the first month I…

  • Like several of you guys I started on June 25th, so this week is my second week. This workout is kicking my butt. I don't look forward to the workout, its sorta like one of those daily things that I have to get through, But I will say that I feel accomplished when I am finished (well accomplished and spent).
