Ok, so we know we have to vary cardio to shock the body for fat loss. But what counts? If you primarily like doing Cathe cardio, do you just need to get over it and do some other things like running, or join a gym and use cardio equipment? Can this notion of varying cardio be accomplished...

I agree that someone must have said something. I wouldn't panic just yet, he might have been just reacting to whatever was said and may get over it on his own. I'd also keep going with your assertions that he does not need to lose weight, as he is more likely to believe you if you're consistent...

Hi everyone. Its been way too long since I checked in. I'd really like to come back if you'll have me:-). My fiancee's brother was killed in a car accident 3 weeks ago, and it has just been terrible. We went up to VA (drove from Mobile, AL, 16 hours) and stayed for a week. I got back on track...

Ok, here's the problem, help me solve it! I am currently working on fat loss using Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle and the 3 month rotation Cathe posted a year ago involving 5-6 days cardio and weight training using S&H and PS. I know that you can't really build muscle and burn fat at the...

I like that phrase - I guess my daily phrase is water-focused and sugar free! Great job on 9 days binge-free! I am proud to announce a small victory - I have been without sugar for 4 whole days now, and I have to say, its great. The first couple of days I could not believe the headache, and I am...

Hi burners, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Trouble with our modem. I have had a humbling but very eye-opening experience this week. I weighed myself for the first time since starting this. I did it the morning after a party, so I had eaten dessert, salty stuff, had some wine. I've been...

Would you mind posting the rotation?

Yeah, I kind of wondered about the Slow and Heavy with a fat loss goal working against each other. THis is a rotation posted by Cathe for 20-30 pounds loss over 3 months, and it involves doing 3 week Slow and Heavy at 2 different points with Pure Strength in between. Oh well, if I get to the end...

Christine, Can't comment on the guy thing except to say oh well, we all get older, don't we? Just think how much wiser you probably are! But I'm right with ya on the child/marriage thing (I'm almost 29). When people ask and I tell them I don't plan to start a family until my early to...

Happy Wednesday, Burners! My plan of gradually decreasing unclean calories has been a good one for helping me focus - I'm taking it down a bit more slowly than originally planned ;-) but its getting there. What do you do for coffee creamer? Thinking of getting some vanilla Soymilk (those...

I've found GS legs to be much less dreaded if I break up the standing and floor sections for different days and pair an upper body part with each (e.g. last night I did GS floor and a Core max segment). The standing portion is killer...

Nancy, This is our first marriage - I am 28 and he is 31. The payment thing is an interesting thing. I thought the bride's family was supposed to pay for it and the groom's to pay for the honeymoon - I read in a book, though, that now lots of couples pay for the wedding themselves. Both of...

I am currently beginning to plan my wedding (YIKES!!!) and literally have no idea where to get started. I thought it would be fun to hear some stories from everyone here- funny, inspirational, even horrible, as well as any advice you have. Please lend me some wisdom! FYI we are going small...

Thanks for all the encouragement, Burners! Because of it, I had a great day - only 150 unclean calories (sugar free pudding with Lite Cool Whip on top is unclean, right? Cmon, someone tell me these are listed as A grade foods!) and low calories - around 1450. I also did the floor part of GS legs...

Wow, who knew this would be such a fertile topic? And that Netflix intrigue exists, but I can definitely see it happening. Just when my fiancee was encouraging me not to do it (and I went ahead anyway) he jumps on there and starts raving about how cool it is and exploring all the features. I...

I did it! Perhaps I should have waited for someone to post a negative, but you ladies were right. They have some really obscure movies that I haven't seen in a long time and which have not been at Blockbuster for a long time. Just the horror movie listings convinced me! And I'm starting guitar...

Unlike Dana, I don't think just because you married a man who you knew wanted children means that now you have to provide them. I'm pretty sure (no, not certain) that your perspective on life, work, and your husband is different now than before you were married. Specifically, it sounds like you...

Catwoman, I have not seen The Thing! I am always eager to check out new horror flicks, since I've seen so many. I will order it from Netflix right now! Yes, I have seen Lost Boys and love this movie as well. Its another great Vampire movie with a great soundtrack. Hmm, there seems to be a...

Anyone a subscriber? My sister was singing its praises today, and after looking on the website, they do appear to have tons of movies. Looking for positives and negatives in your experiences...

Hi ladies! Haven't written in awhile, but its so awesome to see everyone hanging in there. I have a confession to make (I've been hiding): I have not been eating fully clean everyday. I have found that around my 3rd meal of the day, I go straight for something unhealthy - I keep the calories...
