I am seriously trying to understand this- I don't think its worth getting angry about. I have an advanced degree (not in exercise physiology) and honestly I think there is a lot that is complicated about this, and the actual studies on PubMed (after reading many of the full studies, not just the abstracts) involve very few…

oh I needed this today-- I will post more on your page!

I think they are both terrific and I also just started ChaLean extreme for more weight based working out. JM DVDs that I love: 30DS, Ripped in 30, 6 week 6 pack, No More Trouble Zones, Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, Kickboxing (I do not like Extreme Shed and Shred) Bob Harper--I think his workouts are great and I love his…

I am 2 weeks into this program. So far so good-- I appreciate the comment about it not burning a lot of calories-- I've been doing some additional cardio. I have 25, 20, 15, 10, 8, 5 lb sets of dumb bells and so far that has been enough! I'd love to buy the select type if anyone can recommend a reasonably priced brand!

I have started ChaLean extreme-- did some of Jamie Eason's program for 2 weeks, and 2 weeks of NROLFW before that. I didn't like the book-only aspect of New Rules, and Jamie's program on bodybuilding.com had videos of how to do each exercise. Then I thought a structured program w/ DVDs might be something to follow through…

too much oxygen is actually bad for you

I agree, amazing !!! My copy of ChaLean extreme is on its way literally!

bump== I ordered both P90x and Chalean extreme-- please feel welcome to let me know your thoughts on either!

I ordered it today! I have heard only good things and am looking forward to it.

Raynaud's is common among women. I have it. As a problem on its own, it is not serious, but you do want to protect your hands in the cold. I put on gloves sometimes when i am putting groceries into the freezer. All winter I keep gloves in every coat pocket. It does sometimes accompany other rheumatology disorders, but…

I love Bob Harper's hour long work outs -- I have 4 of them, and love them. I am not sure why they are not more popular on the boards. I alternate between Jillian Michaels, Bob Harper, lifting free weights, cardio. Good luck!

I love sugar free fudgsicles, arctic zero ice cream (vanilla is the best), adora calcium supplements (dark chocolate), diet hot cocoa, luna bars

Just starting after finding the program on line. I work out at home and have done Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper videos, did about a month of NROLFW (modified for my basement). I don't think I will quit other workouts including cardio, but plan to use this about 3 times a week... I look forward to reading posts in this…

Maggie: It must kill you to be an English teacher and read all of these posts! thanks for your comments!

bumping, thanks for posting

when I was 17, a physician told me to lose weight by going as long as I could without eating, and only then to eat. He scolded me for being overweight, but neglected to consider I was hypothyroid despite a history of thyroiditis. It took 4 more years to start getting treated for hypothyroidism, and only then because I…

How about congratulating her on giving up the drinking and tell her that you've also been pursuing a healthier life style yourself. It opens up the door for her to ask about what this means to you and learn some things, but also let's her just get a little support for the amazing thing she did accomplish for her health.

Bob Harper has some great videos, different enough from Jillian, longer; also with weights.

I put my china in the dishwasher. Nothing terrible happens. And if it does, then it isn't really worth having to me. Life is too short to pamper the dishes!

saving to read later- thanks
