Love Turbofire but have been doing Slim in 6 for the last few months and am getting very toned and tight.

I am at 1400 right now but going back to 1300... Feel free to add me!

When I did the program I would burn about 100 calories per 10 minutes... so if it was 50 minutes I burned about 500 calories - pretty consistantly. I do weigh around 135 and am 5'3. I hope that helps.

I only use DVD's. Jillian Micheals and Bob Harper's DVD's are tough. Depending on what exactly you need. I would say look at any of their's. I have been doing Les Mills Pump - which is strength but that is a 90 day program so you get alot of DVD's but they are really effective.

I wouldn't worry too much about his comments. It sounds like he is supporting you like you said by getting you what you need. His comments could be just fear that things will change when you lose the weight or you may not want him anymore. I truly don't think it is because he doesn't want you healthy. Just keep doing what…

Ok.. you are in! I can monitor you on here... Friend me - dakoerber And my facebook is www.facebook.com/dkoerber YEAH!

I used to eat those all the time because they were quick and are good. But then I saw a new report that the FDA allows them to post calories within 25% difference + or -. ( I think that was the correct number) the point is that even though they say the calories it can be off. I eat them only once in awhile now.

Thats awesome!

Turbofire/Turbojam!! Love it!!

this is absolutely correct! You never want to go below 1200 calories. Eat 1200 plus your excercise calories. Your body is in starvation mode and holding onto everything. You need to eat.

Congrats to him! Thats great progress!

Hi John! Did you do any measurements when you started? The thing about P90X is that due to the gain in muscle you may not see much if any loss... I would expect that you should see some loss in weight so you probably need to adjust your calories or clean up your diet. There is a tendency to eat more with this program…

I have used it for that last year and 1/2 half. It is delicious and filling. Using that and exercise I did lose the last 15 lbs. I will continue to use it since it contains all the nutrients I need that I don't get in my normal diet as a busy working mom. It helped take alot of my cravings away for sweets and I notice a…

That looks amazing! My daughter love buffalo chicken - anything so I will be making these! Thanks so much for sharing.

I agree with you! Those comments make such a difference. I am here for you!

I have to agree that it sounds like she is just trying to be helpful by offering advice. I would take it for that and nothing more and don't let yourself go to a place of negativity. I think by assuming that this friend is trying to put you down that you let yourself think of it in a negative way. Put a positive spin on it…

I am a huge fan of Turbo Jam / Turbofire. They are fun kickboxing cardio DVD's. And they burn tons of calories!

I am currently doing P90X2.... I have done P90X twice. The best advice I have is to stick with it..and do what you can. There are lots of modifications so if you can't do the more intense move then go to the modification. You will work you way up. Its a great program.. I actually like Tony and don't find him annoying. I…

Thats awesome!! If you think you can or think you can't - you are right!

Nice idea!!! Thanks!

Coffee with cream and sugar.. I have cut back the sugar to 1 tbsp and 1/2 & 1/2 low fat creamer but will not go black or no sugar. Chocolate too... although again I try to limit the amount that I eat but will never ever remove from my diet. There are some things in life that are sacred! LOL

AMEN!!! So many people think they need to stop eating. It is so opposite. Thank you for being such an ispiration!

I am on everyday too! Sounds likeyou just need some new friends!

I do a health shake with fruit. Its quick and gives me the nutrients I need. You could also do nuts and dried fruit, cottage cheese and a cheese stick with a peice of fruit. A carb and protein will help keep you full and give you energey. It doens't have to be huge meal. Just something to get you going for the day.

Thanks!! Love almond butter but it is really expensive.

I workout first thing in the morning at home so there are no distractions and its done so nothing gets in my way. 2 Things that made a huge difference for me : 1 - find something you like to do. This may mean trying different things but don't stop til you find it. Everyone has a workout they love and can go to anytime they…

You need to switch up your workouts. Your body is used to the activities you are doing plus you need to add some strength training. You need to build some muscle which will keep your metabolism higher and help your body burn more calories.

Have you ever done HIIT workouts? its where you do high intesity for a 60 seconds then low intesity. You want to get your heart rate up really high. It blasts fat and you burn a ton of calories. I do these when I am short on time. Turbofire has a 15, 20, 25 and 30 minute HIIT workouts. Strength training is also very…

Love it!! Put it in my morning chocolate Shakeology and its likes a reeses peanut butter cup!! YUM!!! And its great that its 1/3 the calories... :)

That is awesome and a great victory for you!!
