Thanks Cendrine! Today I did RWH Low Impact 1 and Bonus Abs 1. I haven't done any RWH in a while, so I figured I was overdue, lol! I think I got through it a little better than last time.

Today was STS disc 8. I will have to look at barbells somewhere other than Walmart sometime :). Today I only had one change over, so it wasn't too bad. I also shoveled the little bit of snow we got. It was soooo cold out (the wind chill was about -20). It makes me very glad I have workouts...

Thanks Cendrine re: the weight loss. This isn't the first time I've lost a lot of weight, but I hope it's the last time. I really have to take it off and keep it off for my back and my heart. I will have lost almost half of myself by the time I'm done! Katie, I have a barbell with "threads."...

Happy New Year! Thanks for the list of foods, Cendrine. I'm going to add some of those to my shopping list. That makes sense that you would lose weight when you lower inflammation. 3.5 lbs. in 4 days sounds like water weight/inflammation to me. Cendrine, I don't have any specific workout...

"Holiday crap and booze" is my issue lately too (well, not so much the booze). I don't eat super clean, but cleaner than I used to. I had a hard time keeping the saturated fat in check over the holidays, and I discovered some new foods to stay away from (some of the junk I bought for the...

I had a good Christmas. The dinner I prepared didn't come out as good as I had hoped (stuffed turkey breast), so I don't think I'll be trying to make that again anytime soon. My daughter's came out really good though. I got a Roku in the hopes that Cathe will have a Roku channel at some point...

Yesterday I did STS disc 6 again. My cats usually want pets when I'm doing floor work. And they walk under and on top of me. I decided to use this to my advantage. When I can't get one of my cats to come out from under my bed, I do a plank in front of it and he comes right out! Good luck...

Cendrine, I usually try to keep my calories 750-1000 below maintenance calories, and I use Fitbit and My Fitness Pal to figure out and keep track of my calories. I try to keep my protein over 100g/day (to conserve muscle mass), soluble fiber above 10g/day, and saturated fat to under 7% of my...

I still haven't tried the other low impact RWH workout. I was going to do it yesterday, but I ended up taking a nap and messing up my plans for the day. Oh well, I needed the sleep, and I can do the workout tomorrow. Today was STS disc 4 again. I'm getting a little better with all of the...

I had to modify some of the moves in low impact HiiT 1 as well, Cendrine. It was still quite a challenge! I've been trying to research as to whether I will ever be able to do any plyo moves. I'm not planning to try any until at least mesocycle 3 in STS. I'll have to ask my PT beforehand, but...

I tried RWH low impact 1 and bonus abs 1 yesterday. Oh boy do I have a lot to work up to with those workouts! Today it was warm enough outside to go for a walk, so I walked over 2 miles. I also did STS disc 5.

I got my low impact RWH DVD a day later than the tracking information online said it would be delivered, but I'm happy to have gotten it today. Since today was STS disc 4, I figured I'd wait until tomorrow to try one of the new workouts. I hope you have a great time with your son and...

Today I did low impact step. I don't have nearly as much DOMS after doing STS disc 3 this time, but I do have some. Thanks for the info about RWH low impact, Katie. I'm impatiently awaiting the arrival of mine. The USPS status says I should get it tomorrow, but I don't trust that. The last...

Yesterday I did some ab work, and today was STS disc 3. I've been doing the extended stretch every time I do STS, and I think it hits all the areas I was stretching before with my PT stretches. So I'm just going to go with that for my stretching program at least until I finish STS. Wow...

Thanks Katie. I have been looking into Xtrain. I will probably get it when I near the end of STS. Yesterday was Low Impact Challenge (step express #1), and today was STS disc 2 again. I like doing the STS workouts two weeks in a row so I can make adjustments from the previous week.

I had serious DOMS for days after STS disc 3! I did light walking-based videos for a couple of days after that. Today was STS disc 1 again, and an old aerobics video. I'm excited that the new workouts will arrive soon! Have a wonderful weekend!

I finished STS disc 3 today, but I had to take a few short breaks during it to catch my breath! I did a couple of the newer moves (for me) with no weight, but I will add some weight next time. My feet were cramping up toward the end, so I had to wait a while to do the extended stretch. Thanks...

Katie, that's great that Butts & Guts didn't give you back pain! I hope you made it through the antigravity class OK. Cendrine, I am not feeling any DOMS, but I also didn't get through all of the pushups. I was already doing them on my knees, but I forgot that you can do them in the table-top...

Katie, I'm glad you had a nice visit with your boys. I kept my calories in check on Thanksgiving, but I ate way too many leftovers yesterday! I was back on track today, and luckily there aren't many leftovers left. I am looking forward to the new w/o too, but I only ordered Low Impact HiiT...

Thanks Cendrine! I had all my equipment lined up for STS today, but I still had to pause the DVD several times to set things up. Wow, that moves fast! But I love the variety of exercises. I had to do all pushups on my knees, and I was not able to complete nearly all of them, but I did OK on...
