Hi Karen!! I've decided to try zig-zagging my calories, so I'm trying to figure out how many calories I need in one week minus the 3500 calorie deficit to lose a pound a week. Then I'll spread the calories out over the week and have some high and low days. Yesterday I ate about 1900 calories...

Good morning Kathy, Wendy, and Gayle. And good morning to the other lovely ladies who haven't shown up here yet. Kathy, I commend you for doing HIIT. I did that for a little while but have put it aside for now. Even though it was a killer way to do cardio, it still has a dread factor for...

Well I did Leaner Legs (minus the ab workout), then went right to doing The Bar Method "Designer Sculpting" which further worked the quads and especially the glutes. It also works the abs in a non-traditional way. It'll be interesting to see what my butt will feel like tomorrow! :7 Heidi

RE: Best Plan for Fat Loss/Muscle Gain w/o Weight Loss... Bumping yet again! ;-) Heidi

Hey everyone! Well speaking of eating late, I woke up around 4am just famished! I ignored it and tried to go back to sleep, but I think it was my body's shock of doing Imax 2 for the first time yesterday. I think I'm going to up my calories today, plus I'm thinking about doing 3 calorie...

I do BFFM too and as Tom stresses, you need to find the right ratio for your body through trial and error. I don't do 30% protein, more like 25% tops. It translates into about 94g per day. I discovered this the hard way! LOL! For me it works and I'm losing body fat. Hope you find the...

I don't blame you for being excited!! I did Imax 2 for the very first time today and no way could I do those tuck jumps properly. Way to go!!!! :7 Heidi

I did Imax 2 for the first time ever today. It's sneaky, the second half is hard! I survived though, but my face was red for about an hour afterwards! No doubt my body got a shocker, woo hoo! Hope it equals more progress in fat loss. I made the kids oatmeal cookies today, and not a...

Kathy, I'm looking forward to hearing how you make out with Karen Sessions guiding you along. I'm going to really check out her site later on when I'm ready to be a little lazy, LOL! Here's the site for anyone else who wants to see: http://www.theelitephysique.com/ Heidi

Hey, you're back on track Gayle and that's what matters....TODAY! Hope you figure out a game plan for training for your marathons. Heidi

Stephanie, you're right to be excited, that's one fantastic book!! If I could only pick one health and fitness book to keep, that would be the one. I've never regreted buying it and I refer to it on a regular basis. It's the best!!!!! You're smart to take on a personal goal during an...

Lori!!!! It's so good to see you here, I've missed your reports on how you're doing! I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm sure it'll be easier to get into some kind of groove with your workouts once the 3 months are past. My workouts are getting done, and before this challenge it was hit or...

RE: 12-Week Check-in Hi Everyone! Boy we're a little bunch lately! I did CTX Upper Body Split today, and then this evening I did The Bar Method "Designer Sculpting". My gosh my glutes and thighs felt worked, but in a really different way than I've ever felt. After the workout I was...

Good morning Karen, and everyone else! Karen I indulged in some unhealthy eating over the weekend too, and so I can relate to having to pay for it by not feeling as good as usual. We'll get back to feeling like our old selves (or "new" selves might be a better term) in no time! Heidi :-)

RE: Changing Rotations I just finished doing the CTX series and I lost weight and inches and reduced my body fat percentage. I ate very clean, drank lots of water (but not a gallon ;)) and kept my calories between 1400-1700. I agree with Debbie too, that you should switch things up after 3...

Hi Karen!!! Sounds like you have a nice day planned. I did CTX Kickbox this morning. I'm starting Cathe's July 2003 Fat Loss & Definition rotation this Monday, I'm looking forward to the change from CTX, and I think my body could use the change in workouts. Looks like we've both made some...

Hi Gayle, nice treat you're thinking of getting yourself!!!! I'd like something like that some day. Hopefully the forecast changes and you and your boys will have a chance to plant that veggie garden! Sounds like a great way to create memories! Heidi

What a busy bunch we are!! I hope us mothers get special treatment come Mother's Day! This is a tight month for us but hubby said for Mother's Day he'll promise me a little bit of money towards a Cathe DVD...I'll take that! Today is CTX 10-10-10 and hopefully some yoga. I've decided I'm...

RE: 12-Week Check-in I've made a note in my workout journal to re-take my measurements on Saturday and I'm a little nervous! I may just chicken out and wait until more time has gone by! :o Heidi

RE: 12-Week Check-in Sunnyd, "cleanmax".....I like that!! That's a workout I should be doing right now! :7 Heidi
