  • Hi Dawna! Great job on Chalean Extreme!! Yep, I've done Turbo Kick too, in fact last fall I was registered to take an instructor training class, but I hurt my back. I'll keep looking for the next one in my area. I also love what the Lean Phase does for my core! I really don't do any additional ab work aside from really…
  • Hi Jenn, I love all of Chalene's workouts, but CE is my absolute favorite! I'm on my 3rd 3 month rotation (in the Push phase now). There have definitely been times when I haven't felt like maintaining the workouts for 3 full months, but one trick that helps me get through is to commit to doing the weight lifting days no…

Burn 2 for me today...hopefully later I can get in a run, I haven't been out in a while because it's been so hot and humid here. Have a great day! Megan
  • Hi Everyone! Great job on all your workouts! I did Turbo Kick again today. Erica, it is possible to wear yourself down, I have definitely done that and as Ghanie said, my performance and energy really suffered when I tried to workout. I try to have at least one rest day a week, and I make it flexible. If I'm feeling run…

I agree, the "you'd weigh..." thingy is…

  • I don't follow her meal plan exactly...I have a huge family and making all of those dishes that none of the kids would eat doesn't work for me. I'd love to have the luxury of following it exactly and seeing how it helps my workouts, but it's not possible. I've tried alot of the recipes for dinners though and I really like…
  • Hi Everyone! Checking in today with Fat Burn Challenge and I've Got Abs from CE. LilAngel...have fun with CE!!! I still haven't taken my after pics from the first round...I really have to do it. My husband and daughter keep telling me they notice a huge difference. Spiralgirl...great job on your workouts! I love PK&J,…
  • Hi Everyone! Just got back from vacation, and I only have a second so I'll catch up later...but I wanted to say... Lilangel...I got my weights from Wal-mart. They're adjustable from 5 to 25 lbs in 5 lb increments. They're not as nice as the Bow-flex, but they were about $50 a piece, so for about $100 I was able to get…
  • Casey, The endoscopy is when they knock you out and stick a camera into your stomach (down your throat) to look for the ulcer. It doesn't sound like you had one. Have your symptons seemed worse since your gallbladder surgery? As I said, my Dr. said the surgery could make an ulcer worse, so I have a feeling the GI doc might…
  • Hi Everyone! Turbo Kick for me today, and hopefully some abs if I have time. We're leaving for Hershey Park tomorrow morning, so I won't be back til Saturday...but I'm definitely planning to keep working out! There's a fitness center in the hotel, and I'm taking my CE with the band. I've only ever used the weights, so it…
  • Hey Casey, I had my gallbladder out last Sept. and found out I also had an ulcer. Was on antibiotics for about 6 months for that which helped, but lately I've been feeling sick again (especially after the protein drinks which I posted about). I also notice that my tummy problems get worse with that TOM. Are you seeing…
  • Oops! I totally forgot to start the new thread today. :blushing: If I miss it Monday morning feel free to start a new week. Just be sure to post the new link in the previous week so we can find you! :happy: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/62052-turbo-jammers-8-3-8-9
  • Hi Lilangel! I looked at your diary from yesterday, and your protein comes in at about 28%. I'm not a nutritionist, but considering that you workout regularly, I don't think it's anything to worry about. Alot of athletes go up to 30% on protein. I've seen alot of literature on the pros and cons of that (most of the cons…
  • Good Morning Everyone! Back to Burn 1 for me...it felt really good. I went up at least 5 lbs in everything, and some exercises, like the sumo squats, I went up 10 lbs! Plus, the first time around I had to do all the push ups on my knees...now I can do the the regular way! I'm also going for a run later...we're finally…
  • Yeah, I've heard about that Erica...which is one reason I avoid it (well, that and the taste :sick: ). I think I'll try to come up with other ways to get protein. Thanks for your input! :flowerforyou:
