  • I am 5'6" and I am an 8 and my goal is a 6..hope that helps , but everyone is different Marie Osmond is 5'6" and she is a size 4, her hips are a whole lot smaller than mine ever will be...

  • Full-time mom, student and part time nurse's assistant! oh yeah and personal fitness and healthy living lady!
  • Ok I have heard that TurboFire because it's more cardio than the Jam you actually have the problem where you can loose muscle tone...so I hope this helps, I love TurboJam I don't think I got bulky but my arms have a definite shape to them!
  • If I could delete this I would I hate when people get all judgey on here...wanted to share a good deal that I got and yeah this relates to body fitness more than some of the other posts that I read, and hello this is non surgical...and no I do not beleive in miracles I know that my body changes with my workouts and eating…
  • I babysat in my home for 3 years and I quit because it got to be too much for not enough money. I would simply look around see what day care would run them, then look up how much it costs for a housekeeper and then call a lawn service, I was charging $350 weekly for 50 hours, and you obvioudly work much more than that. I…
  • actually I have read alot about I Lipo and it is super safe compared to most plastic surgery especially since it is non surgical! And I have worked really hard to get this far I really can't get rid of my muffin top...
  • Am not really a fan of Chalean Extreme, but bigger than that I have extremely bad carpal tunnel syndrome and tried to add hand weights , and then the gloves to Turbo jam and the pain was unbearable...but thanks for the suggestion I was actually thinking about some ankle weights though think that may help with the Spartan…
  • It is definitely more fast paced and today now that I "know" some the moves better my burn was higher than Monday ( I have a hrm). But it is definitely different than Turbo Jam, I say this because I am sore, and I went straight from Turbo Jam. And ladies eat more what, fruits veggies, protein or carbs?
  • I do, in the am and I have done a lot of different programs you have to find one that works for you. I have done the 30 day Shred, and many of Jillian Micheals other workouts. I have done Insanity, P90X, and Turbo Jam, Zumba and now I ma doing Turbo Hire! Good luck and here is to hoping you find success!
  • Totally agree you need a rest day even Insanity calls for a rest day. Your body needs it..no walking no working out...or you will burn out and fall hard I think too many of us have had that experience. I am currently training for a Spartan Race in October and I just started TurboFire, which is great cardio, so I am only…
  • I have added strength excercises that focus on my hips and thighs here is to hoping that it helps ( I have a lot of loose skin on the inside of my thighs, really not a pretty sight!). And my sister ( a personal trainer) reminded me that one day it will all catch up, and that if this truly is a lifestyle change that my…
  • I did Insanity first it is a crazy cardio program and helped me build up endurance it does not take as much of your time as P90X does, so really depneds on your life style can you fit an hour half work out in? If so then maybe P90X is a good starter it is just not for me at all, love Turbo Fire and Turbo Jam!
  • My fav is the apple chicken pecan half salad from Wendy's filling and yummy!

  • Disagree you need your exercise calories if you want to change your life and not just be on a diet, 1200 calories is next to impossible to satisfy those cravings we all have, and every now and again those things should be allowed, plus you need fuel to build muscle. Good luck MFP has been great for me, in the last year and…
  • totally slacked in this department, ran out of eggs. ran out of Kashi, so I had a banana( hey I really need to grocery shop!)
  • Those are the best kind of compliments the ones they aren't even aware are the most important"seeing as I have a waist now!!! ", the ones we give our selves!
  • I will tell you that your milk changes with your child's age so you can't necessarily reserve it all, I am not saying you can't do some but your breast milk's nutritional content changes with your child's age. As for how many calories consult your OB, I would call and ask, but I am sure that it isn't 800 extra. The same…
