Anyone Out There? Bueller?
Hey, ladies! I'm bluelena. I've been off and on MFP for years but am jumping back in because perimenopause is some BULLSH!T. Looking for friends to start some discussion and see if we can demystify this phenomenon. Feel free to friend me.

Introducing Myself
Hi, Piyo people! I thought I'd hop in and introduce myself, as I'm new to the group. I'm a 43 year old happily single female in Houston, TX. When I'm not doing Piyo, I'm running with the Hash House Harriers (On On) and doing Turbo Jam. Sometimes I even run for fun in my neighborhood, but most of my running happens with the…

Smothered Chicken
While I'm busy posting hard-to-find recipes, I figured I'd put this one out there, too. I modify the hell out of it, but it's a good base recipe. For some reason, you can't find it on the Cooking Light site, but it came from there. Ingredients: Cooking spray 4 (4oz) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 1/2 tsp salt 1/4…

Skinnytaste Chicken and Lentil Soup - the ORIGINAL recipe
So, while I was double checking my grocery list this morning, I noticed that Gina made quite a few changes to my favorite recipe of hers. Normally, this wouldn't bother me, but this particular recipe changed so much as far as nutrition and ingredients were concerned, that I figured I'd put the original one out here so that…

A Single Round of Push?
I completed a round of CLX last year, and then ended up with an injury that prohibited me from picking up heavy things for a good long while. Now that I'm healed and starting to do more weight bearing strength training, I'm thinking about doing a round of Push (skipping Burn and Lean), just to mix up my routine. Currently,…

Why "Bad" Foods Are Good For You
A lot of good points here. I wish I could figure out how to make the link clickable, but after doing a few searches, I'm still not sure how to do it. So if you have the energy to copy/paste a link, here you go:…

What To Do In-Between "Rounds" Of CLX
I'm going into my last week of Lean this week, and I know I want to do one more round of CLX before I move on to Stronglifts 5x5. The week after Lean will be pretty much a "rest week", as I'll be spending 4 days in New Orleans right after I finish. After that, I'm not sure that I want to go right back into CLX. I'm…

Quack Quack, Dr. Oz!
Thought I'd share. http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/medical_examiner/2013/01/can_you_trust_dr_oz_his_medical_advice_often_conflicts_with_the_best_science.html "Oz maintained his trademark boyish wonder and excitement as he delivered a message many of us long to hear: A pill could help us “burn fat without…

Modifying the CLX Schedule
I just finished my first week of Burn the other day. Yesterday, I was supposed to start week 2 with Burn Circuit 1, but my day ended up being eaten up with buying a car and dinner with friends. Since today is a rest day, I can just make that up today, but then I'd be going straight into Burn Circuit 2 tomorrow. OR, I could…
