Loosey

Well, I am glad to know that it's just not me that has had a hard time loosing the last few pounds. I plan to step up my IE as well, I am really thinking about joining 24 hour fitness, or curves, I need different machines to work on and I don't have room for them in my home...Thank you so very much for posting to us, we need all the motivation we can get.

Thanks for the Gazelle information - am I right that they don't need power (sorry if I'm being REALLY dense) but that would be easier if we move from the US... it is always my first concern when buying things, I ask myself "would this work elsewhere" lol.

I was actually hoping to get a UWS 2006 calendar but I don't think they are doing one this time... I'm going to stop going on about it because it's not the first time I've mentioned it.

See you soon!

E

You are right - the only power the gazelle needs is YOU power!! lol Unless you get the one with the heart rate monitor and then it would require small batteries. 

  

I also don't think they are doing the UWS calendar this year. They seem to just put out one per year from what I can see. This year it was UWS and last year it was Self Matters. If I find out anything different, I'll let you know!

It sounds as if you are referring to the Rapid Start program??  When I followed it, over a year ago now, I encountered a tremendous amount of bloating and gas for a period of time - as did many others who were doing the plan.  It comes about as a result of incorporating more vegetables and fruit into our eating.  A simple solution would be to take gasx.  May I ask did you have a complete physical before starting the program to rule out any other medical conditions?  The Rapid Start is designed to give your metabolism a "jump start" and most of the gals lost a considerable amount during this time.  I know my first loss was 6 lbs.  Are you exercising and eating 5X a day?   

 

There are tapes available for doing the band exercises - just don't know the names off hand.  Were you doing any type of aerobic exercise along with the bands?? 

 

As for Dr. Phils books being pulled from the shelves - well I don't know where you live but I would just consider that a 'NASTY RUMOR as you put it.  His program works - I can speak for that as I have been at goal for 1 1/2 years now.   

 

Please let us know if we can help you get back on the program and welcome to the board.   Lois 

 I found a place to get a video for the exercise bands....

I don't recall losing more than 1-5 lbs in the whole month.  Maybe I wasn't doing everything correctly.

I'm also having a little trouble figuring out how this message board works.  It's different than the Hostboard group that I belong to.

That's what I was thinking.. DH's cousin works at Curves, and she thinks since my body is used to an Intense workout that 24 hour fitness was probably better for me, also the hours would work better too, since I am stuck at home, I could workout at night, or real early in the mornings...I'll have to check them all out and see...Thanks hun.

 My Friend, Wishing you a great day! lol Are you getting excited  over the xmas season? lol
I'm a kid at heart! gigles. Hope to see you later my friend. lolHugs Linda

Linda, (((((((((big hugs your way)))))))! Yes, I am really looking forward to Christmas...I love it! It is my favoroite holiday. Aside from the fact that I am always thinking about those who are no longer around to celebrate...it is a very joyous time of year. My father passed away 8 years ago last July...and it's so odd how the grieving part is way better, but my mom said it best when she said that the longer time passes, the more you miss them. It is so true! 

 

So, how about you? Are you looking forward to Christmas? Have any shopping done yet? I haven't done any yet, but am hoping to get some done later this week.((((((((((hugs))))))))))
