RE: 12-Week Check-in Sounds like a great workout Heather! Just got finished doing Power Hour. I've had the DVD for more than a year, maybe 2 years, but I can't remember ever doing it before??? Anyways, it was a great workout and I have a feeling I'll be feeling it in my biceps tomorrow...

That's a great approach Kathy. For the last 2 weeks I was losing a bit of lean mass and so I upped my calories and as a result have lost some body fat and gained back some lean mass. It's really showed me that if you fuel your body well and work out consistently, it'll take care of the rest...

Good morning Kathy! Have fun yard saleing, hope you find some cool stuff. I'll be away for the weekend too, so I'm packing some of my own food also. Hi Wendy, I'm sorry to hear about your pain not being gone, gosh that's frustrating. I HATE it when that happens. Today is Power Hour...

RE: 12-Week Check-in Hi Gayle, maybe I didn't mention my ankle here. I found that hours after I did MIC my right ankle was sort of cranky. I'm just babying it to play it safe. Actually it feels quite good today, enough that I was so tempted to do a step workout but I controlled myself! LOL...

RE: 12-Week Check-in You're a woman on a mission Heather!! :D Way to go on planning your meals in advance, I've got to do that some day soon. Heidi

Good morning Kathy, Wendy, Gayle, and Karen, and everyone else! Sounds like you all are getting in some great workouts, even Wendy's rest day - that's important. Today is supposed to be Cardio Kicks and althought I SO WISH I could do it, I want to take care of my offended ankle (as per MIC)...

Hey Kelly, you already know I'm excited for you that you now have these series! They are truly must-haves! You've got a great rotation planned there! Heidi :-)

Hi Heather. I do just as Becky does, otherwise I don't have the energy for my workout, and it's the whole point to get in a great workout?! :) I eat plain prepared oatmeal with half a banana mashed in, and a tsp. of protein. I also drink 2 cups of coffee. Shortly after that I start my...

Well I don't have a hope in heck, I only have 16 days until my birthday and it ain't my 20th, it's my 39th! I've been focusing on fat loss so strength is not something I have a lot of at the moment! :o :P I'm starting a 4 week rotation with the Gym Styles and S&H next week. I wonder if 2...

RE: Daily calorie allowance with or without factoring i... Hey that's a great way to figure it out! I think that could work well for having a good ballpark figure to shoot for. Thanks! :-) Heidi

RE: 12-Week Check-in Hi Everyone, I'm just popping on here to check-in before it's too late in the day! My right ankle is a little cranky from doing MIC yesterday as I think I may have underestimated my readiness for such a challenge. So, instead of doing all of MIS, I just did the upper body...

Good morning Karen, Gayle, and Heather! Just wanted to wave to ya! Oh and Heather you probably need all that sleep to recharge your batteries, plus yes good ol' TOM will be a factor. I don't have the Timersaver DVD, but man you make me want it for those times when you need it! It does...

Kathy, what superb results!!! You must be pleased and motivated!! Wendy, bummer on the stiff neck, shoulder, and back!! I myself have a "cranky" right ankle from doing MIC yesterday, so I'm going to have to probably baby it for a few days. I'm supposed to do Cardio Kicks tomorrow but I...

I think too, if you were doing the same thing for over a year, your body would certainly respond to the change, and obviously that change is probably a better style for your particular body. Enjoy the results!! :-) Heidi

I do as others do, keep the whole seeds in the freezer or fridge, and have a coffee grinder just for grinding flaxseed. I only grind enough for about 2-3 days. I always put a Tbsp. on my GoLean cereal every morning. I do like the idea of putting it in my protein shake instead of say natural...

Thanks Wendy, you're a doll for tracking her down for us! Now I can relax! ;) Heidi

RE: Daily calorie allowance with or without factoring i... Thanks Traci! It is nice when we figure something out isn't it?! :-) For me I've found I need carbs, and I don't do well at all on high protein, so my ratios are 50% carbs, 25% protein, 25% fat. With that, IF I'm eating clean and...

Wendy -- do tell us if you find out how Lori is. I know you will anyways, but I'm hoping to hear she's fine but tired or busy or something. Heidi

Hi Kali! I hear you on being accountable, man it just doesn't work if you've got no one to give you a kick in the butt the odd time. Even knowing the fact that others assume you'll post a workout every day is a huge help. Plus talking about this stuff with likeminded people is very very...

RE: Daily calorie allowance with or without factoring i... Thanks Debbie. I know there's no risk of adding more calories on the day of a tough workout. I do tend to go a little overboard in my technique for choosing a calorie intake though, it's my anal side! LOL! But in reality if I don't...
