  • Your boyfriend is correct. And it's a GOOD thing! Keep it up! :)
  • I just took a group through a total body Calisthenic exercise. Took 60 minutes with warm-up cool down & stretching burned over 600 calories. Didn't use anything but your body weight. If you know a lot of calisthenic exercises like push-ups, sit-ups, jump squats, etc. be creative and throw something together! Otherwise I…
  • sweet potatoes, whole fruits, vegetables, maybe a good protein bar. all of those except for the last suggestion won't have any fat in it.

  • I'm a Beachbody Coach and I would have to agree. Those other coaches give the rest of us who really do want to help people a bad name. Coaches who read this need to remember that being a coach is about people HELPING people, not people USING people. I apologize on their behalf and want to let you know that we're not all…
  • They say a picture is worth a thousand words right?? http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=274416&id=804920654 Get it, it's worth EVERY SINGLE CENT. And don't get it from any other place than QVC, Beachbody.com, or through a Coach like myself who represent Beachbody. Reasons for that being: #1 - No 90-day money back…
  • That is a TON of protein they're suggesting that you eat! I'm on a 40/40/20 (carbs/protein/fats) eating plan right now and even with that I find it difficult to hit my protein goal WITH supplementation. If what you're doing is working, stick with it. I do believe that it is important to supplement in certain areas, but it…
  • Oh btw, I've had 4 friends come over and try the pie, and they've all absolutely loved it! :) I may have to make some more. It's quick and easy, so give it a shot!
  • What did you mix it with?? Granted if you mix it just with water, the taste is less than fantastic. But if you use it with a meal replacement, you should usually add some other content to it (fruit, milk, peanut butter, etc.) that's to your liking and mix it up so that it's right around a 300-400 calorie meal. If you blend…
  • Hey Tina, Hmm...are you allergic to peanuts and such?? I don't think another scoop of protein powder would help with the flavor of it. I'll try to think of something else you may be able to put into it and get back to you lol :)
  • You can pick it up at this website. Just copy and paste it into your url. http://www.shakeology.com/brianhin
  • I LOVE Shakeology and have been using it regularly since July of 2009. I even made a Chocolate Shakeology PIE yesterday and it's delicious! :) Check it out!! http://hinhealthandfitness.blogspot.com
  • You can do it!!! You're not alone!! got lots of love and support now so you can't fail! Decide that you WON'T fail!! :) love ya!!
  • I started a year ago. March 8, 2009 to be exact and I haven't stopped since. My pics speak for themselves I think :) The program works if you do!
  • Something you eat between meals. anything between 100-200 calories. If you get past 300 calories, it's becoming more of a meal & not a snack.

  • And Heather is absolutely correct, exercise WILL give you more energy. Take it from someone that use to sleep for 10+ hrs a day and STILL had to drag himself out of bed, falling asleep everywhere, and feeling chronically fatigued. All that changed when I decided I was going to exercise and get back into shape, and the rest…
  • what's your schedule like?? Are you not motivated to go to the gym?? Or do you workout at home??
  • Just to chime in about purchasing the cheapest off ebay, craigslist, etc. I have many friends that did that and yes they got the dvds. But that's it. So I find a lot of them coming to me asking about what workouts, when they should do them, what they should eat, etc. Eventually they get frustrated and stop doing the…
  • Never noticed it, but will look for it next time I do yoga! :)
  • Hey there! Congrats on wanting to recommit and start back up on P90X! I've been working out to the program for over a year now and have had phenomenal results because of it! What's the equation you're using from the program to calculate your caloric intake?? AND do you have a heart-rate monitor??
  • But how do you know that the person that already looks fit and is looking to lose 5 more lbs hasn't already gone through a dramatic transformation of maybe losing like 50, 100, 120lbs? Granted that if they flat out told people that they're lazy, there's definitely more tactful ways of motivating people, so I can see why…
  • That's awesome!! Totally works! Eat until you're not hungry...not until you're full. ;) Great job!!
  • Eating breakfast is VERY important. I use to skip breakfast altogether in the past, but found that I was consistently tired and underperforming throughout the day. When I changed that and began eating breakfast again, I've noticed a dramatic improvement over time in my energy levels, fitness performance, etc. Even if…
  • I feel your pain (as far as a busy lifestyle goes). I have 2 jobs, a business, and am a full-time graduate student. I still find at least 45 minutes to an hour a day to workout though. I would suggest trying to hard schedule a time of the day where you'll workout and prioritize other things around it. Make your health a…
  • I bought a Mio off Amazon about 9 months ago. About 2 months ago it crapped out on me and stopped working. The Mio I bought was also a one without the chest strap. I just bought a new Polar FT7 ($109 plus tax @ Sports Authority) today with a chest strap and I LOVE IT. Way easier to use in comparison to my Mio and the chest…
  • If you don't like annoying bouncy trainers, I would recommend Shaun T's INSANITY produced by Beachbody. It will work you like you wouldn't believe and it's definitely far from bouncy. I mix that up with some of my other workouts and it's excellent for core & conditioning.
