Alot of what I've been reading on the Beachbody forums say that the ab routine if very tough - Guess not for you :)

I think I have Yoga tonite, but I know abs are around the bend soon.... Yikes!

Hows your overall progress so far penny?  How long you been doing TMT?
Fitness 10 Minute Video...OK who woke up and played this horrible informercial joke on me?? Aug 24 2008

I just started this program today and the first 10 minute program kicked my butt, I had to hit Pause twice to bring my heartrate down. Some of the comments above sound more hilarious to me than the ones being critical of the infomercial. I'm 60 lbs over my goal weight but have already lost 50 since 07 before trying this program. One thing I've noticed personally is that your body gets used to doing stuff, so even though I can go a long time on the exercise bike ( because I'm used to it ) I get winded doing these other routines because I don't use those muscles.  I think, in my mind, that the sucess of this program will be the variation of different routines over time.

I can't say anything negative about this myself, the first routine did what it should have - got my heartrate up and pumping. I'll do the next routine tonight.

How far can this take me, what will I look like at the end of 30 days, who knows... But then, if I were to post my before and after photos some folks would think they were fake like the others.

After day 1, I would say that it's working.

P.S. I ordered online and wound up getting the Deluxe version which is more pricey than what you see on t.v I think?

Back from vacation, had a great time. Did alot of walking which seems to have led to me losing alittle weight while I was away :) Not bad considering... Anyhow, may go ahead and take my before photos tommorow and fire up the first day of 10 minute trainer! Depending on how it goes I may try for 20 mins but I have a feeling the first 10 are gonna kill me!

How's progress with you?

Seems like you're really done in 30 mins? *grin*  Not a whole lot online about this program though, I've found some details here and there.  I'm going to do the "Before" and "After" thing on this just for fun - should be interesting to actually SEE the results. I'm also hoping that my wife might also get interested in this as well, it makes it SOOOO much easier to stay on track when you are working as a team I think.

Well keep me posted, I'll also do the same once I actually get started on it.  I have an upcoming vacation in PA for a week, so I'm gonna get all of the cheating on bad food  out of my system while I'm there and then go nuts on the 10minutetrainer program when I come back.

P.S.  Probably too soon, but are you noticing anything yet?

Well, I guess I'll be starting this in a couple of weeks.  It seems I mistakenly ordered it and it's on the way *lol* 

Anyhow, I've gained back alot of the weight I lost so this might be just the ticket for me ( once it arrives and I get back from my vacation to start it).

How's it working for you so far?

For me, it's every night before I go to bed and every morning when I wake up.  The only one I count though is on Saturday mornings. Weight fluctuates so much day to day, many weeks I find myself on Friday night asking "OMG, will I lose it before tommorow morning!?" :)

Not bad Wanda, my loss has slowed alot but I'm still losing... slowly... I'm at a year now and still going strong though :) I'm so glad many have found this as usefull as I have over this past year, I'm no Excel guru by any means, but I do love crunching numbers when it comes to weight loss :)

I've motivated a few at work to get out an walk with me during my lunch hour, that in itself has made all of this worth it.

It's really more so a clafification on what is considered to be a link.

howareyou.com

Is "howareyou.com" a link?  if so, what does it link too? This is really the issue, is text considered a link? If it is, then I was completely wrong.

From working in the computer world, however, most definition of link would be a hyperlink that would look like this www.gohereorthereoranywhere.com that takes you to a website.

At any rate, I was just trying to give people a nice tool to track their progress, if I had known all this was going to come from it I would have just kept it to myself, friends locally, and family - all of which love it. 

On a side note, you would have to be a complete moron to post a malicous link using your established CC id... But anyway.

There was no "LINK", I removed the "LINK" - If, by "LINK" you mean "HYPERLINK". So based on this, all that was there was an unfunctional URL where the user would have to intentionally change it to go to the spreadsheet. No different than standard text.  While I understand there are crazies out there, each individual user of Calorie Count can make the decision on whether they would type the URL in on thier machine ( which is not controlled by you and releases you of any responsibility ).  I made the correction to the post to remove the Hyperlink so no one would go there automatically, are you also stateing now that a URL address in a message in the forum is not allowed? 

What, exactly, is this sites definition of "LINK"? 

Guys, as for the spreadsheet which I know everyone is finding helpfull but is being supressed for reasons they posted above, you can find the actual "LINK" on my profile page. For whatever reason it's ok that I redirect you to the spreadsheet there but not here - Go figure :S   I'm just trying to help people, which is what I believed CC's goal was until this happened.

Editted: I wanted to also add, based on the rules above, I was in error when I posted the original topic because at that time it did have a link in it. I apologize for this, I signed up along while back and haven't ever had a need or desire to post a link to anything until this spreadsheet. CC had every right to ask me to edit/remove the link from the original post AND I did comply with the request. Maybe CC could just add the spreadsheets functionality to the weight tracker screen here on the site? Since I've never posted anything like this before, I would look to CC's expertise to find a way of shareing this with it's members in a way as not to violate any policies.

Surprised and off track, she ran to me, confused and thirsting for a sugar free chocolate. I told her that many people mistake me for dark beer. Almost falling on the grocery store floor, she regained composure by exclaiming, "I won't ever believe dieticians when they say yeast allergy matters!" Then she cried, "Who has stolen an artificial elephant flavored jerky?!" and flung it madly at the elderly man. He jeered while reaching for all-natural jam. But then, the strangest sound reminded him to turn around and jump off track. Quickly, Mother! When does my diet start working? Not only did lions appear magical but slightly whimsical! They sniffed the grass singing corny showtunes until a PSYCHOLOGIST awoke the hypnotized starving couple. "OH MY RED SHORTS are GELATINOUS!" This ludicrous notion that one can be ravenous and out of spaghetti never crossed their minds. Only after seeing the enormous mound of Hunt's pasta swirled in symmetrical circles, did Hans realize hairloss wasn't going to rule leprechaun's lives. Frightened out of his pants, cloverleaves were covering the doorway to enchantment. The undiscovered astronomical ramifications left everyone aghast. Consequently, episodes of Desperate Housewives repeatedly danced through ghostly images of televisions. Alternatively, The Flintstones, mischievously disrupted the tranquility that caused rupture. Reminiscing rapturously, they decided that today would be the day to diet! They began releasing flammable gas that caused a flood.  The craving for chocolate litterally made them comatose.
