I just started a blog about my weight loss journey, and although it only has four followers so far, I feel SO MUCH better having those four people "there." They seem to understand what I'm going through and to really care about whether I make it. Also, the blog is a place where I can be totally honest about my struggle with overeating. Anyway, I love your blog.. very open, positive, and helpful.

Hopefully I'll be there soon too...around 90 or so right now I think!<br /><br />As for the heart rate monitors, I have a Polar F11 (you can get it on Amazon for $145; it's usually $180 I think) and have had no problems with it. I've had it a year and half or so now. It's super easy to use too!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15909108680799377642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-36556207765544861272009-10-28T04:55:02.366-07:002009-10-28T04:55:02.366-07:00100 followers?!?

I love the plyo dvd, the cardioX and Tony is VERY motivational to me. He gets on some peoples nerves. Buy it only on ebay to save money. It is WAY too expensive on beachbody. You will prob want to use some DVDs and not others. I go to a gym though, so do weight lifting there and use mostly the other dvds at home. hope this helps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-46187489402574283832009-10-28T03:22:58.180-07:002009-10-28T03:22:58.180-07:00alllll my IRL friends swear by it.

It's a lot of money and quite frankly, I think it's for the person who is already thin and wants to get 'ripped'. that's a 145 lb range for me. I've got a ways to go, but if you get it...let us know, I am actually very interested in that program.<br />Congratulations on 100 followers, people cheering you on helps tons.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13708815560712267698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-28093419909178224102009-10-27T22:05:28.054-07:002009-10-27T22:05:28.054-07:00congrats on 100 followers!

I might pick it up again after the holidays. It was decent but not necessarily a miracle worker. It can produce amazing results, but that's not guaranteed. <br /><br />It is pretty difficult. But if you have a high fitness level it's not terrible. It consists of 12 DVDs: chest and back, plyometrics, arms and shoulders, yoga, legs and back, kenpo, stretch, chest tris and shoulders, core synergistics, ab ripper, and cardio. <br /><br />It is supposed to use muscle confusion but, honestly, after the first phase the only extras workout you do are core synergistics, chest tries and shoulders, and back and biceps. The other DVD workouts you do throughout the entire 12 weeks, you just might do them in different orders. <br /><br />You do seven different workouts a week with one day of rest or the stretch. The work outs are pretty intense and it comes with an eating plan. You only work each muscle group twice a week but if you work them really hard it's enough to make a difference. I thought the leg routine wasn't very great but that's because I'm a woman. The plyometrics kicked my butt. <br /><br />However it's really time consuming. It takes about an hour to and hour and a half everyday. Which isn't bad but if you want to do other fitness activities, like running and such, it can make it difficult to do both. <br /><br />I didn't like how it only worked each muscle group twice a week. But that's just me. It's also more focused on strength and building muscle instead of cardio. <br /><br />As far as heart rate monitors go I've heard good things about the Polar series. Polar 4 and Polar 6 are supposed to be the best. <br /><br />Good luck!Seren_Sighshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02172773686390753632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-62885650775598998422009-10-27T19:25:10.429-07:002009-10-27T19:25:10.429-07:00100 followers of awesomeness!

P90X is supposed to be super hardcore and varied (heavier weights for strength, plyometric jumping for cardio, intense yoga poses, etc) and is meant to CHANGE your body fast. you may be at the point where you want to take it on. i can tell you that i had and used original Power90 system in 2001, when I was about 70 lbs less than I am now and that was awesome. it's only 2 DVDs- one cardio with levels 1-3 and a strength with levels 1-3. you do 6 days a week, alternating days of strength and cardio and have one day off. each workout is btwn 30-45 minutes. there is also a bonus abs one, but anyway i really liked it and will probably buy one off of ebay after the first of the year to ramp up my pre-wedding routine. but anyway, yeah they created P90x as kind of the 'next level' of the original P90 and that was really good.sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615381282944797554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-6646503452888693362009-10-27T19:13:23.617-07:002009-10-27T19:13:23.617-07:00I have not heard of a P90X either.
