You don't have to do 1200 as a limit, but I understand if your pain prevents you from working out. Have you tried pilates? What I mean is to do reformer workout at a studio. I deal with pain too, but most workout can cause my back/neck pain to flair up.

Honestly, its okay if you're eating more than 1200 or 1500, as along as you can eat healthy. Also it's a slow start. if you try doing everything at once, and go extreme with your calories, you'll set yourself up for defeat. So eat as much as you want, just don't try doing more than 2000 without being somewhat active. After…

I started the 30day program and of course at 2 days I don't SEE any difference, but I do feel it. I think that you have to include a 1200-1800 calorie diet, depending on how much extra exercise you do, to see anything. After Week 1 Day 2, I think I'll notice results, but I need to get my diet under control along with more…

I got the slim in 10, both the rapid result and the one with the band. Pilates has changed my body so much!!! I feel like I got slimmer and helped with cardio, because of the breathing. If you want to tone then pilates will help, but you might not be tone as in muscularly tone. So honestly I believe in pilates, because…

Did the Fit Test today. OMG it was tough. My heart was on fire and I keep coughing. I don't feel too confident about tomorrow's workout, but I'm gonna push through it. It's funny that I could do the first half pretty well, but the last half I didn't have the endurance so my numbers were low!

Start Date: 7/16 (Hopefully sooner) Projected End: 9/16/ Following Nutrition Guide: I will follow it to the best I can, but I think I'm already near that it says. Starting weight(with Insanity): 162.5 Goal Weight(hoping to reach after completion: 150 I really hope I can do this, because my body can't handle too much,…

I've tried a couple but it all comes down to what you want and need. You can try GNC shakes, which are more about meal replacement, which is something I think you are more into. Muscle Milk is well known and taste just like Chocolate Milk. This however is mostly for people who are working out and to help burn the fat. I…

The meal looks reasonable. I like that she give you specific guidelines and tells you how to order the subway sandwich

It gets easier, but it's only week by week. Today I'll finish week one. Don't worry it's hard, and a lot of people say it will change your body. I hope to drop some weight from this... hopefully!

I found that doing cardio after RI30 is easier! I do the elliptical afterwards, and yesterday I did 60mins! It was the last 20 mins that was the hardest, which is normally the first 15mins that hard. Always give yourself a little massage, even though it don't feel as good as if someone did it for you, you're still getting…

Tender breast is normally related to all birth control. Even if you take the pill, you will have the same effect. However, test are tricky, because they are not always accurate. Any birth control will give you symptoms similar to pregnancy, because it tricks your body to think it's pregnant so you won't ovulate. Here's my…

No thank you! I'm just looking for people in the area to maybe workout with or at least meet people, because I don't know anyone here.

Has anyone tried the Yoga Meltdown by Jullian Michaels??? I love pilates, but when I read @bighimsay say yoga was important I got the DVD. It look like a good video, because all her videos seem successful.

Girl, I do pilates 2x a week for an hour and cardio most days. Ripped in 30 killed me the first day! This is why I started this topic, because I felt like everyone was doing it so well and I sucked at it. I'm so happy someone recommended Ripped in 30 to me, because I'm on Day 3 week one and I did the whole video, with…

Do you think I should do week 1 longer, because Day 1 I did 2 circuit. Then Day 2 I did 2 circuits and 1/4 of the 3rd. Should I do week one maybe longer than just a week???

I didn't know the difference between 30SD and RI30. Maybe I should of tried 30SD, but I think RI30 is do able. I can feel my muscle sore from it, but I think if I can do a couple mins longer than it will be worth it. I'll let everyone know how I feel and do tomorrow. I hope I can move hahaha

Thanks!!! I think it's the cardio that's the hardest, because I hate cardio. But I think you're right, because I feel like if I do this everyday for the 5-6 times, that I will get it.

It's really good. It seems easy from watching, but once you do it you can feel the cardio happening.

I started Ripped in 30 today, but only made it through the 25mins of the 37 mins. So that includes the warm up and majority of the workout. I know it wasn't the whole thing, but still I did it. This makes it Week 1 Day 1. I'll join you guys, but you still so hardcore, how am I gonna compare hahaha.

You have done a great job. Don't worry I was always the "fat" girl and now at 20 I realize that I need to be healthier. I want to look 20 and feel it as long as possible. If you need support I'm here!

I've been keeping my calories at 1200. I do eat more, but I always try to keep my net calories at 1200 or a lil above or below. Honestly if you eat too little and are working out then you will get sick, trust me! I notice that I am dropping weight faster than before, so if you keep it 1200 you will lose weight. Also as…

I have flat feet along with weak ankle ligaments. I use the reebok zigzag ones because they absorb the best. Honestly you have to make sure you know what kind of flat feet you have. If you have a flexible one, meaning it works doesn't hurt to be in any kind of shoe than you should just look for a pair of shoes who are wide…

The Pros about pole dancing is that it is a good workout! It's not always a cardio type of workout, but you can gain muscle similar to pilates. You are using your body weight, which helps tone you all over. The bad thing is that you will bruise, especially the first time you do it. One time I did upside, and it took a…

Hey! I'm 20 and looking to lose at least 25-30lbs. I lost already 20lbs since I was 18, but I need the support buddies. Maybe give some tips and advice to others and get the same thing back. Add me as a friend cause I'm serious about losing weight and becoming healthier and helping others too.

HEY! I've been in Joplin since August and honestly still know no one, because my boyfriend moved here to come back to family. I honestly didn't know Joplin was a city and thought it was gonna be scary. I would really like to meet some people and try to maybe get a fitness group/support group together. I really don't know…

Honestly you have the similar body I had when I was near your weight, and you do not look 188 in the before pictures! It's amazing to see you at 118 and you don't look sickly. I'm super impress by how you got your body to look so well. I'm really inspire to do what you were doing. Give us some more tips please!:happy:
