RE: Success, finally! Hope, I know what you mean. It just seems more commonsensical that you would lose weight faster doing cardio rather than strength training. When you go through the other treads though, I get the impression that some people respond better to cardio and other better to...

Success, finally! Hi guys, Sorry I haven’t checked in, had a hectic week. I do have fantastic news however. I got on the scale this morning and I’ve lost 3, 5 lbs!!!! Just hope it’s for real and not just a fluctuation. This week I did the entire PS series and cardio 2x45 minutes but I think...

RE: check in Hi everyone, Marie1120, I have the PS series and I can honestly say that those tapes did more for me than any other vids so far. I really like their pace and the fact that there is a lot of stretching throughout. I’ve been doing them for about 5 months now and I still have DOMS...

RE: check in FFD, Good luck on Monday!!!! By, the way, which vid’s did you get? I’m rapidly building up to a video shopping spree myself so I could use some advice. I desperately need some new strength vids – I was thinking of ‘Legs & Glutes’, ‘Max Intensity Strength’ and ‘Body Max’. Del

RE: check in Weighed myself this morning – haven’t lost any weight despite 2 works of zigzagging and working out 5-6 times a week. I’m disappointed but I can’t say completely surprised. I’m still struggling with my ‘low calorie’ days; I take in way too many calories during dinnertime. Over the...

RE: Checking In! Yesterday I faithfully did PS Back, Biceps & Abs in the morning and StepMax in the evening. I don’t have any DOMS in my upper arms or back today either but I’m in a bit of a dubio as to whether I should increase the weight. I think that sometimes I don’t do the exercise as...

RE: No workout here either FFD, I wasn’t really saying that consuming ground beef is a good idea to raise your calorie intake, quite the opposite. I hadn’t realized how ‘bad’ it was, calorie wise speaking then. Do you find that as a vegetarian you have a problem consuming enough/too little...

RE: No workout here either FFD, In one of her posts, Francine said that on the low calorie days you should cut back on your fat intake so that’s the first thing I do – no more margarine on my bread and I try and limit as much as possible the oil/butter that I use for cooking. I’ve also...

RE: No workout here either Cferrante, I’m counting the calories myself. At http://calorielab.com you can look-up the caloric content of just about anything. I really plan ahead – the evening before I plan and write up what I’m going to eat the next day. That way I don’t run into any...

RE: No workout here either FFD, My scheme for the coming months is: Monday: 1300 kcal, rest Tuesday: 1300 kcal, 60 minutes step aerobics Wednesday: 2000 kcal, 45 minutes strength training + 45 minutes step aerobics Thursday: 1300 kcal, 60 minutes step aerobics Friday: 1300 kcal, 30...

RE: Clean eating is hard!!! FFD, Here's a link in which Francine explains how the zig-zag diet works. It sounds like it should work and I think I just might be able to stick with it!! :-) http://69.0.137.118/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=4&topic_id=42725 Kind regards, Del

RE: Clean eating is hard!!! Hi, I’ve been working out with video’s for about a year now and switched to working more or less exclusively with Cathe vids about 6 months ago. I’m 30 and want to lose 25 pounds plus get some hard needed definition. I haven’t had much luck losing weight with the...
