    Help!

    It's so interesting that you say that because I was actually on Weight Watchers and stopped because I was worried I wasn't eating enough.. I've been trying to eat around 1500 calories a day, but am usually closer to 1300-1400. I figured WW had me at around 1200. I really don't want to quit...

    Help!

    I am in my second week of Insanity and have gained weight!! I know I've read posts about this before, but don't remember reading anything in regards to if the weight eventually begins to drop. I have been eating clean and working out according to the Insanity calendar. I am trying to lose...

    Starting Insanity tomorrow... any advice

    Okay, I'm biting the bullet and I'm starting Insanity tomorrow. I will probably be crying half way though the fit test tomorrow, but I want to challenge myself. For those of you who have conquered the beast, do you have any advice? Did you all drink a recovery drink? What kind of eating plan...

    Okay ladies, need step advice...

    Thank you so much for all your responses. I do have all the IMAX's (IMAX 2 is one of my favs, in fact I plan to do that this morning). I decided with the sale going on right now to just get both Athletic Step and Step Moves. I like the dancy aspect for fun factor but the athletic aspect for...

    Okay ladies, need step advice...

    I have been a major Cathe fan for the last 7 years, but have not purchased any of her real recent stuff. I am looking for a new DVD to add to my collection similar to Step Blast or Rythmic Step, or my favorite Body Max 2 Cardio Blast Premix. I like more advanced workouts, so I am asking all...

    UGH! I am hating self tanners........

    I too use the Jergens and like the results, but not the smell. I wear it at night while I'm sleeping and my husband says some nights the smell is so bad he can't sleep. Under the covers it's like the smell is baking. I haven't had any problems with my palms because I always wash the palms of...

    I don't get it

    I know exactly what you are talking about! I am throwing a baby shower for my closest friend on Sunday and as of Monday I had maybe 4 responses when about 24 people were invited. I had to have the guest of honor's Mom contact people to see if they were coming, and sure enough almost all of...

    Can't stop doing BodyMax 2 Cardio Blast Pre Mix

    I seriously can't get enough of this workout!! It has become my new favorite and I find that I constantly want to reach for it. I like to consistentaly change my workouts, so I am having a difficult time because I don't want to do other cardio workouts, I just want to do this one! :) I did...

    should my puppy stay or go?

    Janie, I have been reading your posts for awhile, and first off I just want to say how sorry I am that you are going through this. I also just wanted to share my own experience with you... When DH and I first starting dating we obtained two Rottweilers (Morgan and Brittany). We got them as...

    Insanity or P90X???

    I don't have Insanity, so I can't comment on that one. What I can tell you is that I got great results from P90X. I dropped weight like crazy and my muscles were more defined than ever. The only thing about P90X is that I didn't really enjoy the workouts... there is no fun factor really to...

    Carnival v. Royal Caribbean...with kids?

    I've been doing a lot of research on both lines as well because I would like to go with our 6 year old daughter. From the majority of the reviews I've read I get the impression that Carnival is more the "party cruise" for the younger crowds where RC is more family oriented. I heard that both...

    I don't know what's wrong...

    Thanks ladies for all you kind words! I know I just need to give it more time. I am thinking it may be a good idea for me to just get a little less obsessive about it and instead of tracking all my calories and monitoring all the calories I burn during my workouts to fit them all neatly into...

    I don't know what's wrong...

    Just a little background... about 3 years ago I lost about 15 lbs and was in the best shape of my life. Since then I have gained about 20 (so disappointed in myself), dieting and exercising on and off. I have decided it is time to take this weight off for good. For the past 2 weeks I have...

    Getting out of the "lowest of low"

    Do you have some people you could get together with and start some kind of challenge? That's what I just did. A group of guys I work with were all talking about starting P90X and I told them about how I did it 2 and half years ago and what great results I got from it. They were all talking...

    Opinions on P90X

    I didn't particularly like the workouts as far as fun factor, and I didn't care that much for Tony Horton... but the more important thing to me is that I got results!! Fat really just dropped off me while doing the workout series. I did eat really healthy though and upped my calories by about...
