Thanks guys. I'm starting to watch a lot of FIT TV and it helps keep me motivated.

Yes, seeing someone lean and mean is a motivator, isn't it!!

It sure is. I was watching a family fitness challenge show last night while I was laying in my usual position on the couch and I just felt lazy watching them sweat it out in the gym. I jumped up and took the dog for a nice 20 minute walk. It really does help motivate you.

Yes, it does, and exercising creates endorphins, those chemicals that make you feel really good!
But here is what you don't want to do; tear or stretch a muscle, ligament, or cartilage; that is bad news. If they do a segment you are not "fit" enough to do, then "jog" in place, or do something that you can do that won't hurt your body.
I have hurt myself, doing just that. I think I have torn the cartilage in my knee trying to force myself to do something I wasn't ready for. I was rushing it and had no business doing that. It hasn't healed in over a year, and now I keep a big knot on the side of my knee that hurts constantly now. Sure hope it is not something that has to be repaired surgically. But it is so painful to me now that I am going to have to break down and go to the doc's. It is almost to the point that it won't allow itself to be bent.
So............., don't be stupid like I was and have to pay a hefty price for it!!

Definitely go get that checked out. You only get one body. Thanks for the advice. I will be sure to get into excercising more slowly but steadily. I have a rebounder (mini trampoline) that is great. No stress on my knees, so that will be the most that I use for the next few weeks. By then my body should be conditioned enough to start a slow jog around the neighborhood in the evenings after dinner. I know walking is better than jogging, but by trying to jog around the neighborhood, is a good indicator for me of how in shape I am. If I'm gasping for air by the end of the first block, back to the rebounder I go. LOL

Yeah, I have a rebounder too, and should've been using it!! I guess while I can still walk, I better go take care of my outside animals; we live on a farm and I have animals that are more trouble than they are worth, but I love 'em to pieces; in fact, they are calling my name now, LOL!
We'll chat again, I'll try to keep track of your progress. I will be on and off again with the computer since it is summertime and I am outside a lot of the time.
Don't gasp too hard!!

Hey, good for you! I am on day 2 of my 21 days phase after 1st round of phase 2. I had a tough day, as had to eat at restaurants and didn't do my best. It is something you just feel like doing after following the protocol so precisely and as a result already gained 2.2 lbs so doing a steak day today. Do you know what happens if I don't lose the 2.2 lbs by tomorrow. Do I do another steak day until I am back to my previous weight?

Comment by Terrie on July 20, 2008 at 4:12pm

Hi Darla,
I'm assuming the weight gain is mostly fluid at this point; do the steak day, drink your teas, drink lots of water, you'll do okay.
I would probably do another steak day if it were me. I'm not sure what the answer is to that; but eating protein, no sugar, no starch, should get you back to par.
