Burn 3 today in my first week - looking forward to recharge tomorrow!

Got in clx burn 3 - was going to follow up with c25k but after the lunges in clx was wiped!

Burn intervals and an burner - I've got to build up to the whole an burner routine!

Same here; have started a couple times previously but never finished. Going to combine this with Les Mills Combat (as soon as I get the basics DVD watched!) :wink:

Rest day today - tomorrow Chalean Burn 2

I started clx last week; did burn 1 and 2. The slow pace feels weird, but I could really feel it in my biceps and inner thighs a day or two afterward. This week my goal is to follow the schedule and do the workouts everyday - hope to see results for a trip to Mexico in February!

I am trying to eat this way, too - not always easy. Planning all your meals for the week and doing food prep on the weekend are both great ideas!

I plan on starting tomorrow - Monday - 11/26 - maybe we can motivate each other!

I add a little bit of agave nectar - gives it a yummy caramel flavor!

What an amazing journey - love that you set goals and achieved them! The end result of setting an example for your kids is really the best part!

Treadmill for 50 minutes - will probably be golfing this afternoon. Starting p90x in the next couple of days!!

I like to put pumpkin puree and a little brown sugar!

I lost around 25 lbs. originally although have gained back about 10 when I stopped exercising regularly and watching the snacking. Am back to being motivated and want to lose around 8lbs. - this time not looking to cut back on calories so much as kick my exercise up a notch. Would love to have some motivational friends in…

Welcome! This is a great place to find people to support you through your journey! I was never an "exerciser" but have found I have more energy when I do exercise.

Good question - I put it under cardio the last couple of times. Does putting calories burned under strength training add it to your food totals?

I did burn 2 again today (in my second week) and then hopped on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Total burn 469. I'm sticking to the order of doing the DVDs but sometimes have an extra day in between due to what else is going in in my day - hopefully this won't affect my results. I really want to get 15 lb.dumbbels for a…

Burn 1 again today - 194 calories and then 30 minutes on the treadmill. I'm still working on targeting the muscle groups that are involved in each exercise - it takes practice! I am really liking the program, though I've had a skip a day here and there due to my schedule.

Did burn circuit 3 today and burned 205 calories. What a great leg workout; I really liked this one!! Have also lost a pound since starting the program!!!

I'm also looking to tone up and not lose too many pounds - MFP Name: Lindajay3 Current Weight 3/9: 146.6 Challenge Wt. Goal: 142.0 Results: 03/15 03/22 03/29 04/06 I started Chalean Extreme this week so hoping that will hope with losing inches!! Good Luck to Everyone!

Burn 2 today and I feel like I'm better understanding how this whole heavy weights/low reps should work although I only burdened 182 calories. Added 30 minutes on the treadmill to up that to 386. I can't wait to do whatver cardio DVD it is tomorrow!!

Started today, so I'll be interest in responses also.:smile:

Just finished burn circuit 1 - burned 181 calories so I spent 30 minutes on the treadmill to give myself a bigger calorie burn. I am definitely going to have to pick up some 15 lb. dumbbells for some of the moves.

Saving this for later!

I am hoping to receive chalean extreme today and after reading all your posts I'm really excited to get started. I keep reading that Chalene recommends lifting "heavy" - what does that mean in terms of weights? I have 8 and 10 lb. dumbbells-will that be good to start with or should I plan on picking up heavier ones? Thanks…

I only lost .2 from my last weigh in so I'm at 141 lbs. right now. We were out of to em over the weekend and I didn't lig my foods so i plan on setting my calories today and using those guidelines this week.

Good luck to you! I have a hard time with the wine, too. I started mfp about a year ago and luckily it was a quiet time of year and I could really keep the going out to a minimum. Summer came and having a glass of wine or two when we were out became too easy and I gained back some of the weight I had lost. Right now I'm…
