  • I was diagnosed almost two years ago and my levels have been great but I haven't been able to lose any weight. I work out consistently with both cardio and weight lifting and watch what I eat but for 2 years my weight has been exactly the same. A friend suggested going gluten free because hypothyroidism and gluten…
  • This group is what keeps me going. If I miss I few days I jump right back in because I know I'm not a lone. Love it!
  • I'm so excited for you! Congratulations!!! I'm on week 7 this week....wish I were further along but getting sick threw me off a couple weeks. Having people doing that same work out is such a motivator for me!
  • Lindsey, check out this link.... http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/the-bizzy-diet.html I'd love to move forward as a group too! When I got sick before I would have quit but you guys motivating me helped me get my rear in gear and back in the gym!
  • I honestly don't know. Sometimes I can power through a cold and sometimes like the one I had last week I just lay down in bed and call the whole thing off. I hope you feel better soon!
  • I think I'm going to go with the bizzy plan when I finish live fit. I'm running a half marathon in June and that program would leave more time to train for that. Thanks for sharing it!!
  • I do 2 sets with one to failure as well.
  • Thanks for the encouragement! Boy did I need it! I am pretty sure by Friday I will be ready to go and I'll just start week 6 over again. Week 6 was fun anyhow so I'm okay with repeating it.
  • I just made the lemon protein bars and the carrot cake ones. I'm not a big fan of how stevia and how sweet it makes everything taste and I even used 1/4 cup less than what it calls for. Has anyone else used any of the other sweeteners?
  • I am not looking forward to the plyometrics! I'm not a big fan of jumping let alone doing it in front of everyone in the gym. Grace is NOT my middle name!
  • I really wish I were better about sticking to the eating plan. I'm pretty lazy when it comes to that. I definitely see a change in how hard my muscles are and I'm seeing a definition in my arms. I know if I ate better I would be seeing a lot better results. Darn loving food so much! :-)
  • I just finished the first week of phase 2 and it isn't as bad as it looks. It requires more time in the gym for sure and I had to break up weights and cardio. I do weights first thing in the morning and cardio when I get off work.

  • I think as long as you are doing something repeating a phase wouldn't be bad. I went into this looking it as a life style not a program that I had to complete so if I ever have to go back and repeat a week or phase it won't derail me. Phase 3 is intense! Of course by the time you get to the end of phase 2 you might be…
  • I just realized I skipped that in my work out. Darn it!
  • The abs this week kicked my booty! WOW!!
  • I'm not following her meal plan to a T either. I'm just using it as guidance and eating as clean as I can. I stick to eating as many meals as she says but I'm not a big meat eater so I'm getting my protein from other stuff.
  • I did the donkey calf raises when I got home from the gym. I just couldn't bring myself to do it there even with my husband.

  • When I made them sometimes I crumbled them on my salad and other times I dipped them in buffalo sauce because I might be just a wee bit obsessed with it. I am pretty sure I could drink it! I've been planning to make the protein bars but just haven't gotten around to it.
  • You can also get on your hands and knees and hook/place a weight in the crook of your knee and raise your foot up towards the ceiling. You can't go as heavy with that but it will still work your hamstring.
  • I've decided that this is a lifestyle not just the program that I'm doing so if I miss a day I'm just adding it onto the next week. If I have time I would double up work outs but that isn't always going to happen.
  • I'm so impressed you did all 3 this morning! You're awesome!
  • I hope you feel better soon! I hate getting sick especially when you're on a roll with a work out!
  • I am in week 4 and I've been doing cardio since week one. This is the second time I've started this program (sadly I didn't finish last time). The first time followed it exactly like it's written, this time throwing I'm throwing in 3 or 4 days of cardio. Honestly I'm seeing just as great of results this time around as last…

  • I love that you renamed the meals! Something about afternoon tea seems so much more fun!
    in Calories Comment by KBomar2 January 2013
  • Yea for collarbones! I hope your day gets better!!
  • That's fantastic! I can't wait until I get to phase 3!
  • That was a crazy leg work out. In my gym the weight room is upstairs and my legs were shaking so bad I thought I was going to fall down the stairs. I was wondering how the lemon bars were. I'm going to make those tomorrow!

  • The first time I started this program after the first month I got on the scale and nearly died, I had gained 5lbs. I could see a huge difference in my body but I let the scale derail me and I quit. I suggest staying off the scale until at least after phase 2. Go by what you see in the mirror, not the numbers!
  • I increased upper body but went a little lighter than last week on my lower. I was so sore after last weeks leg work out I couldn't walk! I like being sore but when you can't even roll over in bed I draw the line :laugh:
