Which weight tape have you found the most results with? I only have MIS, Slow and Heavy, and the new Intensity series. Lisa

I am looking for rotation suggestions based on the tapes I have: Power Max MIS and MIC Slow and Heavy Series (I quit using this because I found it boring, but am willing to try again) Intensity Series Intense Moves by Gin Miller various Tae Bo's I workout 5 days per week for 1 1/2...

You know, I never went to the about.com forums because I was afraid it would only be negative information and bum me out even more. I read an interesting article in Time or Newsweek that said self-diagnosing and/or researching a condition on the internet can be problematic because alot of...

I am currently in the process of getting my thyroid tested. My doctor told me the "normal" range was 0.4 - 5.5. However, I did read online somewhere that the normal range is 4.8. My initial test result was 4.77. My doctor is giving me a referral to see an endocronologist to see if I have...

I only made it through cycles 1 and 2 and ending up gaining 8 pounds - and believe me it was mostly fat - I am feeling right now as I type this because my pants are so tight on my wider, fatter, waistline. I tried to start cycle 3, but I just couldn't increase my food intake even more. I got...

How long did it take you to go from 1800 calories per day to 3500 calories per day. It seemed every other day you added another 100 calories. When I tried the Body Rx program, and was required to eat 1.5 grams of protein per pound (weight 154, height 5'5") I gained another 5 pounds! When I...

When I was eating 2500 calories per day (high protein, low carbs) I actually gained almost 5 pounds. Now I have to lose that on top of the 10 pounds I wanted to lose before that. If I eat 1600 calories per day for 5 days per week and 2100-2400 calories per day on 2 days per week - is this...

Thanks for all the wonderful replies. I will try to think of my weekend binges as a bad habit that I have developed over many year. And while bad habits are hard to break, they are not impossible either. If I have the inner strength to get up at 5am to work out 5 days per week, I surely have...

Please keep us informed on how the online personal trainer works out. I might be interested! By the way, your history sounds exactly like me! What are your current stats and what are your goals? Can you let me know how he advises you? Thanks, Lisa

I went to prosourceonline. Based on my current weight of 159, my BMR is 1551. My daily calories would range from 2404 to 2559. I am still confused. If I choose to eat "low calorie" for 5 days/week and "higher calorie" for 2 days per week, what is the calorie range for each day? Thanks, Lisa

Help! I cannot seem to stay focused on my goals on the weekends. I believe my exercise regime is good, but it is my eating that is causing me problems. I have always been like this. However, I recently learned what "clean" eating is and have been doing very well during the week, when my schedule...

I see various posts regarding getting your thyroid tested. I just got my results back. The result was 4.7, and therefore, I was considered to have a "normal" reading. I was told a normal reading is between 0.4 to 5.5. Below 0.4 is considered Hyper- and above 5.5 is considered hypo-. I...

I am also on Body RX and have gained weight and it is not muscle. When I looked back at the previous 2 weeks, I estimated that I was eating 2500 calories a day. I am 5'5" and now weigh 158, size 12. I am not sure what to do. I am just finishing cycle 2 and am really discouraged.

Thanks for your input. I am calling the doctor's office today to make an appointment. I felt even fatter over the weekend, and my scale is up 4 more pounds, and I fell it all in my stomach and waist. This is a body area I historically never had a problem with. Before, when I gained weight it...

RE: Check out... Bump

I just wanted to say thanks for all the advice. I am going to get some bloodwork done just to rule our any medical problems. I have received the advice to eat more green veggies and fruit. But I actually don't know if I can eat more. Should I then give up something I am already eating? Or...

RE: Check out... Cathe, I clicked on the above post and found your message dated 11/21/02 titled "The Intensity Series as a Whole". You gave rotations for overall body blast, Total body conditioning with Heavy weights, and Total body conditioning with muscle endurance. Which one of these...

Help! I need some advice. I am 37 years old with 3 children. I am 5'5" and weigh 150 pounds. I have been trying to lose approximately 15 pounds without success. I was so tired of the low calorie diets that have only made me heavier over the last 10-15 years that I decided to try more...
