I really like the more endurance-type workouts, so I'm leaning towards Meso 1. What concerns me most is the one-rep max calculations and the all the different weighted dumbbells. While I have a good variety of dumbbells, I don't have anything heavier than 15 lbs. Will I need heavier weights than...

Another vote for B&G. To me, it seems more like a muscle endurance-type workout. However, the floor work in GS legs is a killer!

I can only afford to purchase one of the STS workouts. For those who've done them, which is your favorite? Why? I love the Gym Style series and am looking for a nice compliment to them. Thanks!

I'll admit, I love my cardio! I also love the GS series and am excited to try your rotation. When you were building your body, what rotation was the most effective for you? You look so great! Thank you!!

Debbie, this looks very similiar to the rotation you just created for me...can I incorporate the two?

First, thank you so much for your advice! I appreciate the rotation and am excited to do something different. I do have a couple of questions for you. What is the difference between a total body and a circuit workout? Will the two deliver the same results, ie: leaner, more toned body? I...

I forgot to ask that with the running, that should help reduce my lower body, but I won't be building any muscle, correct? Do you think that this is too much cardio? Also, if you already started the rotation, I would be grateful to see it, but please don't feel like you have to create one if...

My dh and I were talking about my progress last night and we came to some conclusions. Since I'm getting good results with the workouts I'm already doing, I decided to stick with my current rotation. However, I will be adding 1 or 2 more days of resistance training as well as increasing my...

Thank you so much, Debbie. You have such a generous spirit. All of us on the Cathe boards are so lucky to have you!!

Hi, Debbie: You are so incredible with all of your advice, I felt like you would be able to help me with my question. I've finally reached my goal weight and now I'm wondering what I should do next. Over the past several months, I really focused on weight loss through a combination of...

Here's another great article I wanted to share. Boy, can I relate to #1!! http://www.fitnessmagazine.com/workout/tips/expert-advice/oops-proof-your-workout/?sssdmh=dm17.378918&esrc=nwftn46_0917&email=1453564336 I'm re-posting the other fantastic article regarding weight loss (9 cold, hard...

I have a favorite! I got this recipe from the Southbeach Diet and I eat them almost every morning! 4 egg whites 1/2 c. oatmeal (uncooked; I use old-fashioned oats) 1/4 c. fat free cottage cheese (the recipe calls for low-fat or tofu) 1 tsp. vanilla 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/4 tsp. nutmeg...

Yes, seriously, Flintstones Complete (but it has to be the complete and not gummies or any other variety). We all take just one a day.

I love disboards. There is so much info on that site. All ears is a great site as well. I can't wait to go back!

Thanks, Jerry. We were at Disney this time last year (specifically, Magic Kingdom) and we are so ready to go back!! We're planning a 2010 trip for next May. Do you belong to any of the other Disney forums, like disboards.com?

I re-read this article when I feel like I need to get back on track.

#1 was my surprise. I was really bummed when 30 minutes of exercise 4 days a week wouldn't be enough...especially on those brownie days!

#9 says it all, doesn't it? You have to learn the skills to eat for life, not just a few months. You have to find an activity(ies) that you really enjoy so that you can stay consistent and exercise doesn't feel like such a chore.

I just wanted to share an article I read several months ago that really helped me lose weight. It opened up my eyes and made me realize just how hard it is to get that scale to move. Once I knew that it wasn't just me or my body but it takes genuine hard work, those hour long workouts didn't...

I did the "series with no name" mostly (LIC, DM, BM2), but included High Step Challenge, BC/ME and running/walking into the rotation.
