  • A lot of yoga studios provide mats, although you can bring your own too. Check with the studio but maybe use theirs until you know if it's right for you. Give yoga some time to get used to, I got frustrated when I first started because I wasn't flexible and some poses were hard for me. Now, I LOVE yoga and do a little in…
  • ME! I just started Monday!
  • I recommend getting an ankle brace for extra support. It sounds like there has been a strain on either some tendons or ligaments probably due to the way your foot/ankle lands when running....maybe being inverted or everted. Also rest is going to be your friend in this situation...try some low impact exercises like swimming…
  • I use 2 different ones... Perfect Fit Protein and Shakeology. Perfect Fit Protein---> Completely organic, raw, vegan, gluten free, non GMO, SURGAR FREE. It only comes in vanilla. I use it in my mixed berry protein smoothies and baking...pancakes and muffins! 50 bag serving $43 Shakeolgy--->You've done some research on it…

  • I've just started month 2. Love-hate relationship here too! Now that I'm stronger I feel I get way more out of the workouts...better push-ups, higher jumps etc.
  • My sister has the same issue with Insanity....it hurts her knees. She is doing P90x right now and enjoys that. TurboFire is the next program I'm going to do but I've seen and heard great things about TurboFire and ChaLEAN Extreme. TurboFire and ChaLEAN will burn fat...so since you don't have much weight to lose maybe stick…
  • Mmmm beer. I love it too! I've also lost weight and then lost motivation and gained all of it back. Need motivation!
  • Almost vegan....I only need to eliminate cheese (oh but I love it so much!). I've been a vegetarian for 2 years now and initially lost weight but now transitioning into being vegan.
  • I am starting my recovery week tomorrow of Insanity--->week 5! The first month I wasn't following the elite nutrition guide that they provided. Overall my nutrition needs improvement. I feel my results haven't been that great so far, so this next month I'm really going to buckle down and try to eat clean. I've also…
