Anyone doing (or planning) CLX-Insanity Hybrid or CLX?
Today is my last workout of Insanity & tom's Fit Test. Yay! I'm not sure yet if I'll do Chalean Extreme alone, or hybrid with Insanity. I read some posts saying that coming from Insanity, its better to do a hybrid coz you wanna keep the intensity. Or is it better just to focus on CLX? I love the results I got from Insanity…

Anyone with success on setting goal less than their BMR?
Anyone with success on setting goal less than their BMR? They're saying your goal should be above or at your BMR level. Whenever I browse some diaries, some of them are 1200 or even lesser. I'm one of them. I've been eating less than my BMR, had weight loss for 2 wks, except for the 3rd week (0.2 lb). Thanks!
