I started this plan Friday at noon. It is supposed to last 36 hours for each fasting day. I thought that was a bit much so I was going to do 30. At the 30th hour, I breathed a sigh of relief, and ate a couple of protein balls......then didn't eat again til 7am! I just wasn't hungry! I think my...

Since I am just starting, I will just recap what I have read in the book so far. On fasting days, besides drinking water, coffee and/or tea, most people drink broth/soup, nuts, veges, especially leafy greens, fruit (but watch what kind of fruit - some are worse than others- they say apples are...

Justinef, thanks for the positive input! How similar our thoughts about food, eh?! And yes, I wondered how many people will just binge on non-fasting days..kind of like taking one step forward, three steps back! Makes no sense to do that. So I am going to still eat sensibly , with a treat here...

I really don't particularly care what articles say...seems to me that if you want to believe in something (or not), one can always find an article or research that will prove what you want to believe. I have tried everything else, since reaching about 45, and I got this far (lost 40 lbs since...

Looks like Zumba, with a hip hop twist. I love it!

HI! I have been struggling on and off for a couple of years with that stubborn last 20 lbs to lose, plus the muffin top, etc. I am 53, and it is frustrating to work out, eat "right", and not see the fat budge! I am sure I am not alone. So I was looking at CNN or something yesterday, and saw an...

Zumba is dance fitness with mostly Latin music, but I do a lot of top 40 songs! I will post a link from my computer at work later.

How about some Zumba? I have been doing it for 6 years, even with 2 recent back surgeries. It is easily modified to lower impact if any particular song uses jumps or other high impact moves. And it burns calories like crazy.

Having been through 2 major back surgeries, I can't recommend a DVD, but will tell you that McKenzie exercises will help possibly transition your bulges. I still have to do them when I get a flare up (I still have several bulges discs and stenosis). Since I started Cathe, I did the STS and the...

The Zone eating plan that I have been on for years expresses all the facts from the articles. But unlike Atkins or South Beach, it is more balanced. But I decided to stop stressing over every little thing I eat. It started to seem like I would gain a little, and think, it must have been that...

Definitively arms and thighs! I stopped all workouts during Thanksgiving and restarted in Jnauary, and my upper arms were flab and lumpy. Now they are defined and muscular!

Barbell upper body live! Now I don't know what STS was all about! I feel like I never lifted a weight in my life! And I was bench pressing 30 lbs (started with 20...was in week 3). I think I am going to ditch the STS and do these regular upper body workouts a couple of times a week.

I also was gaining doing STS. So I dropped it down to lighter weights and only do it once or twice a week now. I also had to increase my cardio. I thought I was getting a good workout until I remembered that when I was doing classes at the gym, I was TOTALLY winded. Working out at home, I wasn't...

I also questioned the vet's diagnosis and treatment. I took my elderly cat to a vet last year, and he told me she had a tumor in her leg and that she would be dead soon, and recommended putting her down. I knew it wasn't a tumor, since it had appeared so quickly. I took her home. It was an...

I use a TENS unit for when my back is on the Fritz. Plus lidocaine patches and heating pad.

Yep, that is the one! Thank you! I love all the music in that one!

"love the typo LOL and congrats on your progress with Cathe" Yeah, saw that! STS!

I did a really awesome step workout a couple weeks ago. It used several well known songs, including "Buttercup" towards the end, where you skip across the step. Now I can't find it again! Sure wish there was a way to put the On Demand videos in a "my favorites" folder! Thanks

HI, Elsie, and welcome! I am relatively new here too, but have done step most of my life, as well as others. I just joined the On Demand here, and love it. For only $20/ month, I get all the workouts. So, I researched and decided to do her STD series. I have never touched a dumb bell heavier...
