  • what kind of results have you ladies seen so far?? I'm only 3 wks in and I definitely see some change in my biceps and my back. I have to admit that I have NOT been eating clean. I have 2.5 wks off and my husband and I are taking advantage of the holiday season eating out every night and having wine (and yes, I'll admit…

  • Thanks so much for the invite! Today I just finished my last workout of week 3 (Phase 1) which was legs. Rest is scheduled for the next 2 days. I haven't been writing down the weights I've been using, I just remember it from day to day. I'll start writing it down so that I can write it here. I'm 5'6" and 133-135 lb, trying…

  • I say no. For me it would be a respect thing. Would you look up to that person that you just described and respect them?

  • YES! Love it! We get our dinner there almost every night. The food there is so convenient, and it's just a pleasure to shop there! Lots of healthy choices!

  • Not a craze at all...check out eatcleandiet.com. And I highly recommend her book The Eat Clean Diet Recharged. It's about eating real food, not processed foods, avoiding sugars, eating reasonable portions, eating more frequently to keep your metabolism up, drinking enough water, etc. The web site is a great resource.…

  • Hi gmreber! I have to agree that protein bars are filled with crap, only in an emergency setting do I reach for one and I can't really think of the last time I had to. It's just as simple to grab a handful of raw almonds and 1/2 an apple. I follow Tosca Reno's guidelines for clean eating and also (try to) eat 5-6 small…

  • Loved it! It really toned up my upper body which also gained strength. It is tough though!! best of luck to you!
    in P 90X Question Comment by jawolfe April 2010
  • My suggestions would be... 1. make sure you are being really honest about the food that you are eatting, every bite of it, and the portion sizes. and 2. make your log viewable to a friend who you respect. Ask them to look at what your eating and give you feedback. Maybe they'll notice something that you're missing. I've…

  • i'm usually 3-5 lbs higher at night. Just weigh yourself at the same time every day...preferrably in th AM
    in Daily Weight Variation Comment by jawolfe March 2010
  • I did the exact same thing and was up a pound this am! (the wine probably didn't help) Don't worry, since you made good choices, it's just fluid retention, it'll be off tomorrow

    in Food addicts can lose a lot of weight Comment by jawolfe March 2010
  • Hi, I always go with my own HRM since it's more specifically programmed for me. But then again the # on my HRM is also always less than on the machine. If you want to be conservative, it's always safe to go with the lower #.

  • Thank you all for the replies! Looks like I'll be adding a cheat day back in. In a way I'm excited, but it almost makes me nervous. It just seems counterintuitive that sometimes we need to increase our calories to lose more weight. I'm trying to get it!
    in Cheat day? Comment by jawolfe September 2009
  • oddly enough.... cheese takes my sweet tooth away, and it's a great source of protein. Almonds can do the same. (I know, I know, chocolate is better, but...)
    in how to make a low fat dessert for that night craving Comment by jawolfe July 2009
  • I'm on day 52 and loving it! I didn't have a lot of fat to lose so my lbs haven't changed much. But there is definately a change in muscle tone and strength for me. I also know at least 6 people close to me who are doing it and are seeing results. Really, if you put yourself into it, it will be impossible not to have…

  • This sounds great, thanks so much for the recommendation. Recently I've also been enjoying Mandarin Vodka and I mix it either with one of the crystal light packets, or (my new fav) one of the vitamin water 10's. They are only 25 cals for the bottle!
