Push Circuit 1 was today. Whew - I sure love that workout. My eating has been right on all day. I am feeling really good.

I am so glad to hear you are so exited about Chaleene , I also do chalene extreme and I get the same felling , she cares and can be trusted , I never realy want to get started on a workout but once the DVD is in and I get started she motivates me in a way like ,if this little blonde can do it so can I and it always amazes me how fast the workouts go by , at first I was just doing the weight portion of the program and skipping alot of the cardio but after talking to Chalene in chat ( i beleve the next chat is Nov 27 ) she convinced me how important the cardio is , now I do Cardio 6 days a week and weights 3
...........just another Excited Chalene Fan

I am positive there was a live chat with Chalene on the 27th but it is no longer listed
and dont get to excited about talking to her , there are so many people asking her questions at once and she is like me she has to look at the keyboard when typing , so she misses things and there is not enough time to answer every one but she does manage to get some words of wisdom in , I have been following the workout's exactly as laid out in the guide book , in her last chat she said her programs were set at the Minum to get results
that we need to do 6 days of cardio and 3 days of weights , so I have started on weight days also doing the bouus turo Jam work out and on cardio days i will also do a ab workout
keep enjoying your extreme zone ................... joe

Well today we are having our "second" thanksgiving dinner at my mother in laws. I am really feeling grossed out by that today. I feel like I already had my overindlugence so I am going to try really hard today to eat something healthy before I go and then really limit my portions. I like spending time with the family but having two huge meals only days apart - used to be great - but now is gross.

Gonna rock my Push 3 in a little bit so at least I will feel good about that. I know if I concentrate on small portions I will be ok - but it is really gonna take concentration. Ugh.

Hi
I feel the same way you do about Chalene.I started Turbo jam in March this year after a very fit friend was raving about the program.I had been trying to lose weight for several years working out on a regular basis and trying several diets and was lucky to lose 5 lbs in 3 months and then it slowly crept back on.I am 55 and my metabolism and lifestyle changed about 10 years ago and then 7 years ago I quit smoking.I have been 27 lbs heavier than I am comfortable with and was pretty depressed about it.I didn't lose any weight until I started Chalene Extreme.That program kicked my metabolism back into high gear and i feel like my young self again and have lost 18 lbs with 9 more to go.I wore the same size jeans for 25 years and still have 3 pair. A month ago I pulled them on but didn't come close to getting them zipped.A few days ago I got them on ,zipped and buttoned [I can't breathe yet!] I felt a huge emotional sense of achievement and felt soooooo grateful to Chalene for her careful research in designing these programs and her encouraging manner.
I had really felt i was condemmed to that roll of flab around my middle and it felt horrible and I know it is unhealthy.I work in the healthcare field and am so thrilled to be able to show people that you can get back in shape.
I am doing my third round of Chalene extreme and started the Push phase today-I am so much stronger and some Abs are starting to poke thru the flab!
So, Thanks from the bottom of my heart also, Chalene you are a hero

Ok so not that much longer until the holidays. I am really really going to challenge myself to CLEAN EATING. all of the days leading up to Christmas Eve and Christmas. Who is with me? Let's do this.

Today was Cardio X and a mile and half run on the treadmill.

Eating was good

B: oatmeal with tbsp peanut butter
S; almonds and apple
L: egg salad on one slice whole wheat bread; cup of lentil soup
S: greek yogurt
D: cup of whole wheat pasta; 4 oz tofu, 1/4 c black beans, and salad.

Lots of water today and two cups of green tea.

Gonna end 2009 with a bang.

Burn intervals today. Whew. I am glad this week is over. It has been a very stressful week. I cannot beleive how quickly the holidays are approaching. I swear I feel like time has been flying by lately.

Wow - LC 1 - I forgot breakdown sets right out of the gates!! Whew. I swear my arms and legs are like jelly now. GOnna really sit and plan my meals out today - no way am I blowing all that hard work I did. Tricep push-ups - mercy me!!

Todays mealplan:

B: multigrain cheerios, 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 banana
S: greek yogurt with 1/2 scoop protein powder
L: cup of vegetable soup, cup of kidney beans and salad with olive oil, vinegar
S: apple with peanut butter
D: pasta with tofu and brocoli



lots of water - gotta get a workout in.

well i never got a workout in on tuesday. I got a call early afternoon that my grandmom was not doing good. SO I went to be with her instead of working out. She died that night. Yesterday I went to funeral home with my parents to make arrangements for saturday's funeral. Needless to say, I havent worked out yesterday or yet this morning. Just not feeling it right now. If I still feel this way by tomorrow, I am just going to do it - no matter if I feel like it or not. I know it will make me feel better. Just a matter of showing up for it.
