  • Me too! I have tried every diet known to man and I am doing great on this. I love that I get credit for working out. No other program has done that before. They would take away calories, I was hungry all the time because I work out and I waasn't fueling my body so it would stop burning and slow my metabolism. Now even if I…
  • It depends on what you are doing. For walking, I love the new walking shoes with the rocking heel. Sketchers started with them but many others have them now. I have tried several different brands and they are all good. However they are not great for other things. I saw a catalog recently that had all kinds of shoes for…
  • WOW! You have inspired me so much. Thank you for sharing and I will just stick to it. God is te answer to it all. I have to give it over every day.
  • Good luck . My suggestion is to try to work out as well as you can. Use the FITT principle: Frequency- exercise daily and your body will crave it. Do more than one bout of exercise a day even if it is just walking the dog more often. Intensity- work hard at whatever you are doing. There are free videos on Exercisetv.com…
  • champion and nike are my favs. Champion are very affordable and even cheaper on line. Target carries it Try Marshalls always has stuff there.
  • Wow! 117 lbs! I am so impressed. Good for you. I struggled to lose 4 and gained it on a cruise over break I am so discouraged.You give me hope.
  • you can always check your heart rate the old fashioned way. Soon you will learn what it feels like at the target heart rate.
  • I have to admit, I am stil trying to wrap my head around this concept it seems so contrary to what we have heard before. I am trying to eat some back but I can't get myself to eat them all. I work out a lot and that would be a lot of calories. But on the other hand I have lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks. Perhaps I would be losing…
  • Your target HR should be at 60-85% of you MaxHR You should NOT repeat NOT be working at 99%!!!!!Fat burning takes place in the 60-70% area although if you have anaerobic spurts that push you up to max that is OK but you don't want to stay there. Max is 220 minus your age.
  • Ice massage and Ibuprofin will help also stretching the anterior compartment. Do a calf stretch and while leaving your back heel down, bend the back knee. You will feel the stretch move around to the anterior compartment. Hope it feels better soon.
  • This is only my second week and I am hooked. Let's do it together!!:happy:
  • Thank you for sharing, you have given me encouragement. I am down 3 lbs in under 2 weeks.:happy:
  • Congrats! Keep it up! You are an encouragement to me.
  • I wish I could run!! I am 53 and have a horrible knee( surgery 4X) and I have to walk. I am a PE teacher and technically it is the same for the work you do. Work = ForceX Distance so if a 150 lb person walks 1 mile or runs one mile they have done the same amount of work . Calorically it takkes you longer to walk so you are…
