[/quote] I did MFP's 1200 + exercise calories for only about 2 weeks and I kept reading forum posts about eating more and it made sense, plus I was hungry sometimes. So a friend said to never eat below BMR. So I changed my cals to BMR ~1680. But then i got scared. I recalculated BMR based on a lower weight (I have no idea…

day 3 done!!!! halfway through the last week and my arms really need a break!!!

day 2 done!!! and i am spent.... my arms shake even as I type... but it is done... see you tomorrow!! g night!!

I like your idea.... for me too writing and logging everyday knowing that someone else is doing the same thing and reading my posts has kept me going .... along with knowing someone else shares the same pain.... I finished day 6 week 3 yesterday but my day was horribly busy so I didn't have a chance to log it in.... I was…

I did day 4 today and I gotta say my arms and obliques are killing me !!!! you know how she says "YOU SHOULD BE…

Hello Jessica!!! I too just finished day 3 I gotta say my whistst and biceps are killing me.... as for the cardio I agree whith you it is not so bad.... have you been able to properly do the rock n' roll crunches I feel like I fall on my *kitten* every time and am always afraid I will hurt myself... long story short, I…

Hi Jessica, so I did the workout yesterday and this morning .... so that I am currently on day 2 week 3 ... It was hard but I didn't feel the cardio was as challenging as week 2.... but those bear crawls and duck walks really kicked my butt... I think the work out also kicked my cold's butt because i feel better today!!!!…

Hey ... great job!!!! how bad was it???? I am asking specifically because I have a bit of a cold.... and dont want to miss the work out, specially because it takes me a while to get over this kind of things and that would mean having to start all over from week 1.... what's your take on it.... is it doable with a cold???

great job!!!! i also finished day 6 week 2 yesterday and felt fabulous.... thought about measuring today an posting but I am down with a cold and will try to do so tomorrow.....

ok I totally get your feeling ... just finished day 5 week 2 and I am utterly exhausted.... but just one more day... one more day and we'll be half way through..... btw i am thinking about posting results on sunday .... that should keep us going... looking at what we are acomplishing always helps so keep at it and that…

I am not alternating but I am powering through RI30 and keeping up with my pilates classes which provide that variety in exercise...Good Luck let us know how it goes!!!

Day 4 down!!!! thank god... i am really looking forward to having my rest day on sunday...... but till then gotta keep at it ....no pain no gain..... Glad to know I am not alon on the throwing up sensation ..... ;) I gotta say I am afraid of what week 3 will bring

I guess not!!!! But I do think there are few of us on week 2... specially considering most of the group aimed to start on february 1st.... it's great you have been able to keep up with the cardio for me it is virtually impossible specially in the plank position I always feel I am about to throw up.... yum right ... well I…

just finished day 3 week 2 ... and I feel great ... a little sore specially on my upper body, shoulders, arms, chest and back but i gotta say overall I feel fantastic .... I am smack down the middle of week two and look forward to finishing it so i can be half way through the program....

lol... you read my mind ...I too just finished day 2.... still those mountainclimbers kick my butt horribly but the rest of the workout was not so bad... I gotta say I am not feeling that sore at all I mean there is that ouch eeling on my forearms and back but nothing like I felt on day 2 of week one..... I wonder if its…

I also did day 1 week 2 today!!! and Jessica is absolutely right I felt so good by the end of week 1 I thought starting week 2 would be tough but not extremely challenging!!! i gotta say the cardio workout kept me panting for a while ..... also today i slipped on m diet... it was my husband's grandmother's bday and lets…

that sounds great ... as a matter of fact i just finished day 5 and was for the first time able to complete the workout without any breaks and do all the regular push ups... I feel great and love being able to see results in my performance.... tomorrow i will do day 6 and let you know how it goes.. since i started on…
