Fat Fast

DVD suggestions
So I'm looking for a new workout and I could really use some feedback. I have been running a few times a week for the last several months and just completed the 21 Day Fix.

P90x/Power90 mom/dad question
I'm just finishing up the 30day Shred and looking to find another plan to keep me on track. I have really enjoyed the Shred and mostly I love that it is only 30 minutes that I can squeeze in before my day starts.

I started a couch to 5k last year and at week 3 injured my lower back, and it is still is not right a year later.

Protein diet
Im wondering if anyone has tried a protein diet and successfully transitioned to a normal (healthy) eating plan? My husband went to his doctor a week ago and asked for help losing some weight. He needs to drop right around 25lbs according to the chart for his height/weight/age. His plan is basically eating 5-6 times a day,…
