    Generic Rotation

    Power 90

    Thank you for your input... The only problem I have is that I live in Israel and the policy for returning here is only if you didn't open the package. Isn't that ridicilous ?! I also think the tapes are boring.... Anat.

    30 min a day - enough ?

    Hi guys, Unfortunately I am not like you ! I can't seem to exercise without taking at least 2 days off during the week. Working out every day is too harsh on my body. The most I can do is exercise 2 days in a row, but then I have to take one day off. That's my body - what can I do... So, with...

    Restarting....

    So...after a month of being a total couch potato, I need to get back to exercise. I have no excuse why I took a break - simply lazy. Now I feel that I lost some strength and definately cardiovascular ability. I am tired all the time, and I can't even bring myself to start exercising again. But I...

    Question - Dr. Dean Ornish

    forgot to ask.... If I am to cut out all oils completely (including Olive Oil), where do I get my 10% fat from ? Do I need to take any supplement like fish oil to compensate for no-oil diet ?

    Question - Dr. Dean Ornish

    Thank you all ! I think I will try to stick with the 10% rule for most weekdays. Weekends and holidays will probably be tough to keep, so I will raise the percentage to about 20-30%. Regarding protein sources...I live in Israel and we have plenty of non-fat dairy in here and so the options are...

    Question - Dr. Dean Ornish

    Restricting calories Hi Hollie, There's nothing I hate more than restricting my calories. That's one of the things I liked about this program. No counting at all. He says that by eating certain food (grains, legumes, vegetables, fruit and no fat dairy) you automatically reduce your calories...

    Question - Dr. Dean Ornish

    Ok, so I am still searching for the one food plan that I can keep for life. I love to eat and all diets that I had tried failed because they restricted food (amount or calories). Last night I came across an older book I bought a couple of years ago "Eat more, Weigh less" by Dr. Dean Ornish...

    foot problem - no cardio...

    WOW - Thank you ! I didn't think I would get so many replies... I am not sure what is the definition of my foot problem (I live in Israel and I only know the term in Hebrew). I can say that the pain is mostly in my big toe (not nail) and in the arch. It is getting a bit better now, but it seems...

    foot problem - no cardio...

    Hi, I have been suffering from some pain in my foot, especially after a hard workout. My doctor suggested that I do not do any impact cardio for a while until my foot feels better. The only activity he suggested is swimming, but I don't belong to a swimming pool. I would like to lose weight...

    Foot bothering me...

    A couple of days ago I did a step tape (6") and during the workout I started to feel some discomfort at the bottom of my left foot (the arch). Two days later, I am still having the same discomfort. The foot is not swollen and there is no sign of serious injury. I can walk, but I feel some...

The first stage in 1100-1200 calories and I am not sure if I will have the energy to work out without enough fuel. Need your opinion... Thanks, Anat. Here is...

    weight loss - 5 weeks ...

    Thank you all ! I received some good advice. I am not planning on a fad diet, it's not for me anymore. But I will try to up my cardio (perhaps twice a week) and watch carefully what I eat. Hopefully, I'll see some results. Thanks again ! Anat.
