Question!

[Guest guest]

Hi Vicky,

Congratulations on your wonderful success.

I have been wading through e-mails since I returned home and saw the one from

you, then this one and I thought it might be helpful for everyone to see the

answer to this question. I am so impressed with you. At 17 you have decided to

take the best care of yourself. This positive attitude toward your health and

fitness will be rewarded in many ways throughout your life.

I have found that not only can you do it without having a completely empty

stomach, but there may actually be some benefits to doing it shortly after

eating. (Unless it is a huge, heavy meal)

It may help speed up and improve your digestion to do exercise shortly after

eating. Again, I want to say clearly that this would be a normal meal or snack,

not after a big dinner.

The reason I originally said with an empty stomach was to make sure you were not

trying to exercise on a FULL stomach. If you have just eaten a large meal you

will not only feel uncomfortable, but you may experience some acid which would

be very uncomfortable. Most people don't eat a huge breakfast, so about 15 to 30

minutes after breakfast or after a snack would be fine. 15 to 30 minutes after

any small meal is fine.

Take good care,

Rashelle

Question!

Hey.

I've been LiFeLiFTiNG for just over two weeks now and have had incredible

inch-loss - 11.25 " so far!

However, I was wondering, is it essential to do LiFeLiFT in the morning before

breakfast (like in BoDYFLeX) to continue getting good results, or can it be done

anytime throughout the day (on an empty tummy) and still get the same results as

you would if you done it in the morning?

I've done it everyday since I started, and only three days (including today)

have I done it after breakfast.

I don't actually have the video - I found out the basic breath in one of the

' files, along with some positions. However, I tend to just lay in

bed and do my breathing before getting up the morning usually (unless I don't

have time or just HAVE to eat!), and don't do the positions.

I'd really like the video - however, I'm just 17 and can't order it myself of

the site yet, Lol. And my mum and dad won't order it for me, because they just

bought me Oxycise! and that wasn't exactly inexpensive.

Up until two weeks ago I was using Oxycise!, but then found out on the net

about BodyFlex, followed by LifeLift, and decided that LifeLift seemed to be the

best one - for weight/inch loss, clearer skin, better hair, and better health in

general!

OK.. So if any of you could answer my question I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks,

Vicky xxx

Bonnie - I personally was not, but I know at least three people who were

misdiagnosed this way -

[Guest guest]

I was misdiagnosed with MCL. The FISH test and one other that was ordered by

the doc at MD in Houston showed that I have SLL instead. Very difficult

to tell them apart, but apparently the FISH is definitive. (I can't remember

what the letters stand for). Good luck. Bettie

Question!

Who else out there was diagnosed with mantle cell before being

confirmed with sll/cll?

Had my appointment today and the question of mantle cell seems to be

lingering in the background.

Just curious.

Thanks

hi beth! we just like to talk about working out -- with exercise

videos in particular, but other workouts are ok to talk about too

we all use the group in different ways... some like to post

about their workout each day, some like to give a weekly update, some

use it as a check-in to keep them on track, some like to give

detailed reviews of the videos that they do...etc. there is no

requirement, except that we do try to keep on the topic of exercising

as much as possible.

i am doing an 'every day in august' challenge right now though....

completely voluntary and it is up to you to keep yourself on track,

using this group as a daily check-in to say what you did. i find it

motivating to read everyone's check-in... i then feel like i must do

my own workout so that i can check in as well!

we dont normally do certain workout rotations together, but do try

that once in a while. it seems like some of us are doing turbo jam

rotations lately, but that wasnt planned. however, if there is a

set of workouts that you would like to have a buddy do with you, then

just holler! im always interested in doing that kind of thing.

having a buddy do the same workout on the same day would REALLY help

me to stay on track.

anyway, i hope that you will use the group to your advantage, in

whichever way you feel is right, and will post often! welcome to

the group!

[Guest guest]

Thanks Carolyn! You answered all my questions perfectly! I think it's a great group and it will help me to keep on track too......my first hurdle.........GETTING STARTED!! I guess I'll be posting here as soon as I do start. I've heard good things about Turbo Jams.......I'll have to see if it's on Netflix! I have this cheapy Yoga/Pilates DVD I got from Ross for like $5 that I sort of tried once, so for now I'll have to use that one! Thanks again! -Beth "Words are, of course, the

getting started is the hardest part! once you get yourself to do

that, then you will be rolling right along.

other workout dvds.

That doctor was not talking about spinal stenosis. Get yourself an appointment with a neurosurgeon and have surgery. That is the only thing that will fix your back. In the meantime tell your doctor you need a prescription for gabapentin or Lyrica. You are right, the Darvocet will do nothing for the kind of pain you are having. Don't be afraid of the surgery, it is a painful surgery, but just look at all the pain you are in now--the surgery is worth it. You don't have to live that way--in constant never ending pain. Good luck to you and let us know how you are doing.Beth in OKOn May 11, 2010, at 6:02 PM, Ann wrote:

Hello,

Did any of you see GMA this morning? There was a Dr. on there talking about back pain, He said you should never have surgery on your back. To try Hot Soaks, Chiropractor etc. instead of surgery. My pain is killing me I do believe, I can't hardly stand it, so now what to do?? I am so depressed and disgusted. All My Dr. gives me is Darvocet, and that is worthless. Hope every one has a Good Evening with less pain..Oh yes, I have DDD and Spinal stenosis.

[Guest guest]

Hi,

That Dr. said he had had 2 back surgeries himself and he's looking pretty good!!!!!!!!! You have been posting on this site for 2 or 3 years and you just keep getting worse. Now's the time to listen to Beth and Fran and get it done!!!!!

Good Luck

[Guest guest]

Hi AnnI didn't see the program, I don't watch any of the morning shows. I did check the GMA website and read the transcript from the broadcast.I didn't see anything in the transcript that said don't get spine surgery or you should never get spine surgery at all.What I did see is that spine surgery should be the last resort and any good spine surgeon would tell you the same thing. They would tell you that any kind of spine surgery is the last resort when all conservative measures have failed and you are still crippled in pain and can not live with the pain any more.Even then, the surgery should be done only if the doctor can be absolutely sure where the pain is coming from.Spine surgery can be a wonderful thing when done

for the appropriate reasons, and the correct surgery is being done for the specific cause of the back pain.Most spine surgeries are quite successful and I can vouch for that, having had 2 of them and living a life that I want to have.If your doctor is doing nothing but prescribing darvocet for pain, you need to find a new doctor ASAP. Especially since the FDA may take it off the market as it really isn't any mor effective than OTC tylenol.I suggest you seek out the opinion of an orthopedic surgeon that specializes in spines.When was the last time you had an MRI done? What type of doctor are you seeing now that is prescribing your pain med?Have you done at least 6 months of physical therapy to learn exercises to strengthen your core muscles and move correctly?Have

you tried any epidural injections to relieve your pain.Here is the link to the transcript of the GMA segment on back pain that you are talking about.http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/OnCall/fix-dr-richard-besser-finds-back-pain-relief/story?id=10609394 & page=2Fran--- On Tue, 5/11/10, Ann <nachobaby2@...> wrote:From: Ann <nachobaby2@...>Subject: Question!Spinal Stenosis Treatment Date: Tuesday, May 11, 2010, 7:02 PM

really appreciate it. He was one of the main people that helped me out when I

was first dx'd with throat cancer and I would really like to find out how he is

doing.

Thank you in advance
