  • Today's my last day of Brazil Butt Lift! Can't wait to start Turbo Fire on Saturday. I did get to try out HIIT 15 in place of Cardio Axe yesterday. I was really suprised how much I was sweating in just 15 minutes! Nice, short workout.

  • Hello! I'm starting a little behind everyone it seems, but I'd love to join y'all! I've been doing BB workouts since November 2007 (SI6, P90, P90X, P90X+, ChaLEAN, Insanity, RevAbs, and currently Brazil Butt Lift). At my lowest, I had lost 40 lbs, however, I went on a belated honeymoon to the UK in May and gained 12lbs in…

  • Margarita 6 oz. Sprite Zero 1 1/2 oz. tequila Crystal Light lemonade mix splash of fresh lime juice ice, crushed or cubes Blend all ingredients together. Serve with a slice of lime and a touch of salt on the rim of the glass. I make these on the rocks, too. Oddly tastes like a margarita but without all the added calories…

  • I cook them in a skillet over medium to medium high heat for about 6 minutes each side. Not long at all.

  • I buy the Jennie-O turkey burger patties and will cook them for dinner and take the leftovers for lunch the next day. Just pop the patty in the microwave and slap it on a whole wheat bun. I do recommend putting seasoning of some kind on the patties before cooking them though. Makes em much better.

  • Samseed, I'm not arguing with you. I'm just trying to offer her another option in the event she can not find a pullup bar that works for her. I agree that the pull up bar is the better option. That said, she will still see results with P90X using a band in place of pullups if she decides she does not want to drill holes in…
    in Pull-up bar for P90x??? WTF!!!!!! Comment by MereBear_81 February 2010
  • I would agree there is a difference, but not a huge one. At least, there wasn't in my experience. I did use the pullup bar for P90X, but I've also used the bands previously. If it wasn't a viable option, Tony would not show it as one in the P90X videos, imo.

  • It is definitely not for beginning exercisers! When I started Insanity, I had been working out consistently for 2 years (including a round of Slim in 6, P90, 2 rounds of P90X, a round of P90X+, and a round of ChaLEAN Extreme). Insanity still kicked my behind. My advice to people is to GO AT YOUR OWN PACE. Do not worry…

  • You could forgot the pullup bar and get a door attachment for resistance bands. They work the same muscles as doing the pullups, you just pull the bands down rather than pulling your body up.

  • I love stuffed bell peppers. I use my crockpot to make them though. I mix up the filling (without cooking it...I use either extra lean ground beef or turkey with brown rice for the bulk of the filling), stuff the raw peppers, and set them in the crockpot and cook on low 8-10 hours. They come out perfect.

  • I love eatbetteramerica.com! I've tried the sausage stuffed shells, chicken tortilla casserole, and the mexican skillet dinner from the healthified recipes and all have been good!

  • Glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue! I recently bought a pair of Rerock jeans from Express and they are the first pair that I have not had this issue with. They do loosen up a tiny bit, but not near as much as all my other jeans.

  • Heya! I have done two rounds of P90X and one of Insanity (and one of ChaLEAN as well). Both are great and will really improve your fitness level. Insanity requires less daily time commitment than P90X (40-45 minutes compared to 60-90 minutes). It is much more cardio intensive and seemed to really work the lower body more…

  • This is pretty much exactly what I was going to say. I take Lexapro for anxiety, but it is used for depression as well and very similar to celexa. For me, I did have some nausea the first week or so while adjusting. I also clenched my teeth and had trouble sitting still (like constantly bouncing my leg and fidgeting), but…

  • Fage greek yogurt! Both the 0% fat (90 calories per serving) and the 2% fat (130 calories per serving) are creamy and delicious. I add a little agave nectar to them since they aren't flavored. Yum!
