I have not tried Cize myself yet, but Shaun T has other workouts that I have done and they are good. None of the beach body workouts need to be a gateway to their supplements. I have purchased and used many of their programs without them. The workouts combined with tracking on MFP work great.

I do videos at home right now as well, and all I can think about is "Is almost over yet?" Or "Wooo it's almost done!" :D

Compression stockings certainly help with pain, discomfort, and swelling caused by the veins. Though the stockings themselves have their own discomforts :| I was thankfully approved for the procedure by my insurance! I had my right leg done about a week and a half ago, and my left leg will be done in another week and half!…

I have that too, the cankles and I also get little areas of dry/itchy/rashy skin over the varicosities. Haaaaate it! :grumble: I think insurance coverage varies by the company and your plan. I am waiting to find out if/what mine will cover.

I also wanted to add that acupuncture is not going to fix faulty valves in your veins. It might have benefits for other things, but it's not going to help that. :)

I have them. They don't affect my lifting at all, but they sure are ugly, which yes, affects progress as far as looks go. They also cause pain and swelling, mostly if I am on my feet for long periods of time, or with high impact exercise. I have recently in the last few months gone through compression stocking therapy,…

:sick: I don't blame him, one bit!

Could be! :laugh:

Yes, this is old but I am glad to see it pop up. I'm wondering about a lot of my health issues over the last several years now since I've had my iud, never even thought about the correlation.

I'm from around the same area :happy:

The women on here who have bodies that I admire claim to lift heavy. I'll follow their advice instead.:flowerforyou:

<Refer to name and photo.

It IS available for free, she is refusing it for her various excuses. :huh:

This exactly is what I did and do too. If you need to start at less weight than the bar some gyms have smaller bars with weights attached already that you can use.

:love: Can't wait for this show, too!

Sister Wives, killing time before The Walking Dead. :yawn:

Another mom here, to 3 :) New to lifting, just started a couple of week ago. No "friends" on here yet, other than my husband...so feel free to add, anyone!

Hi all :) Just saw this thread and wanted say hello. I have workout endorphins right now, just got back from the gym, wow! I never got this from cardio and circuits, always just felt drained and exhausted, this is nice!

Let us know what happens when you get back to eating real food instead of meal replacement supplements. K thanks!

I purchased this today for my weekend read. I'm hoping I can pick up a good amount of info from it!

Yeah, wow, I agree! Just checking back. I went to the gym today and got my workout done! The gentleman was not there today, whew. Everyone else left me alone other than polite greetings and sharing of equipment, so it was good. I think from here on out as I get used to this I'll be more prepared to shrug off the…

Thanks for all the advice and the explanation, This is my favorite: :laugh: I feel a bit less discouraged now and I'm sure by Friday I will have mostly forgotten all about today and be ready to tackle the next workout!
