**Lean Lady Transformation Challenge by Top Secret Nutrition**

[escamarie]

YAY!!! So excited for the official start of the Challenge! Hit the gym this morning since I have plans tonight .. core and cardio was on the menu. Checked out the other side the gym as I need to plan out my workouts for the maximum effect. I was going 4-5 times a week for 10 weeks straight and literally didn't see any change, actually felt flabbier and worse. So things need to change. I'm hoping the supplements help too!! Let's rock this out!!

[0nyx79]

Morning Ladies! Starting with 2 FAS Leans before breakfast which I should have taken earlier BUT left them at work. Egg whites and oatmeal with a scoop of vanilla protein. Usually I would workout at lunch but I was asked to go to lunch by my love. Can't say no to that so I will run after Body Pump tonight instead =)

[beckycabello]

Good morning Lean Ladies! Hope everyone has a super 1st official day to the Challenge! I am logging my meals, taking my supp's and a working out fool! Obviously, we all can't win, but I do hope everyone meets their goals. So, in that case we are all winners! My daughter wants me to win, because she seems to think I would share the gift card with her......WRONG!!!!! bE THE BEST YOU TODAY!!!!!!

[racegal]

Good morning challengers! Today is the day! My hope is that we all have such rockin transformations that it will be impossible for TSN to pick a winner! I figure that this challenge is a win/win anyway, because I get to meet some pretty incredible ladies and test my own drive and focus to see just what can be accomplished! Get to work ladies! Let's do this!
I am on a 4-day split, so today was cardio only for me. Trying out one supplement at a time, to see how I handle things... 1 scoop of Cardio Igniter for my stair master workout this morning and feeling pretty good. Kind of had that "warm and fuzzy" feeling, but no jitters and no headache so far. Will probably add in the XAT-7 tomorrow.

You go girl

Lol thank you and you know I am going for it full force

[spinninmama]

I have to say how much I am loving the Cardio Igniter!!! I don't have the jitters or nausea that some workouts give me. I also have noticed a definite increase in endurance. I am not a runner by any means, but today noticed such more energy and was able to run further at a time than usual. Hope all you gals are doing awesome!!! I really do love the support in this group.

[naschmidt]

Yeah! First DAy!!!
Wishing all of you an awesome day!
Today I took just one XAT-7 and drank some Cardio Ignitor before I hit the gym this morning. I am slowly easing into the supplements. When I got to the gym one of the guys that work there was all excited about how he going to keep me going and motivated! I LOVE IT!!! He said he was going to get a bullhorn and yell encouraging words at me.
My daughter is planning Saturday's workout. This ought to be interesting. She wants be to do the workout on a treadmill that her XC coach put them through at the beginning of the season. Something about inclines and sprints. YIKES.

Well, must get back to get back folding laundry. So much fun

[0nyx79]

Unusual but did not work out at lunch today but I took 2 XAT-7 when I got back from lunch and I tell you what I want to run to the gym just to get some energy out of my system! WHOA! =) Love it! I feel a little warm inside but I think my body will adjust to it for sure. Cant wait to get to the gym to try the Cardio Ignitor! I will either take my body pump class or work out with my boyfriend doing upperbody (I really need a good tricep workout which is my prob area of my arms and shoulders too I guess LOL) and running sprints....which is my least favorite but maybe the ignitor will get me fired up! Its always easier to run sprints next to a partner so thats great to have. Also, I MUST mention that my 11 year old son is totally being supportive and decided on his own not to drink soda the rest of this month through October for me AND we are doing 50 pushups and 50 situps together after dinner and walking our dog for a mile. =) Oh and if I dont get on tonight, Im going to take 2 L-Carnitine Plus before dinner! This way I will be able to try everything daily. What are you guys doing?

So... How do you set up the signature at the bottom???

** Edit **
I found it! And I stole your idea Rach! Good idea and it can be updated to whatever new challenges are picked up along the way!

[1Reddress]

Can't believe I'm sooo late checking in today on here....I have had you all on my mind ALL day!! I have been soooo excited!!
I spend the whole morning at my "noggin" follow up only to be told I have to wait until tomorrow to have a Catscan. Ugh! I got home just in time to shower and get to work. (hate when that happens) Since my appointment is out of town at 10am...I will have to do an afternoon/evening work out which is just weird! Thinking of hitting up a Zumba class since I can never go working evenings...Oh did I mention this is my Friday?! Woo Hoo!! Off the next two days!

I am sooo pumped about this challenge.
I will update you tomorrow on my supplement dosage..I've been "experimenting" with it this week...I absolutely love it all!!

Rest Well Lean Ladies so you can ROCK it tomorrow all over again!!

Good Morning Rockin Lean Ladies!

Its 3am EST and I can't sleep, so my workoyt today is back and biceps. I am loving all the products and how much energy it gives me.

We all are doing an excellant job

[escamarie]

Good morning Lean Ladies! Happy Thursday!! No gym for me today But that means getting outside and enjoying a beautiful fall day here in Upstate New York. I started out with a mile walk with my dog this morning and walks in the morning and afternoon are already on the work calendar. If plans for tonight fall through, hopefully I'll be able to get in a Zumba tape at home. Cardio Igniter has replaced coffee in the morning especially since that's when I do most of my working out. I'm taking one of each of the XAT-7, L-Carnitine, and FAS Lean with meals. ROCK ON!!

[racegal]

Good morning ladies! This morning was a 'dead arm' day at the gym. I did a shoulders/abs circuit, then a bicep/tricep/abs circuit, followed by sprint intervals. I am up to a full scoop on the Cardio Igniter and feeling good! Today, I will add in a XAT-7 at either my mid-morning meal or lunch, to test that tollerance. I am technically on Week 5 of my 12-week program and was a bit discouraged that I hadn't seen a whole lot of change, but after talking to others on this program, it sounds like things really start changing and picking up around week 6, so I am sticking with it and giving it my all! I had a bit of a 'lifting with ego' moment this morning, because I refused to drop my weight down and so some sets ended up being a rest/pause set to get all the reps in! Got through it and glad I pushed myself!
Have a fabulous day all!

[beckycabello]

Happy Thursday to fellow challenge ladies! Yesterday I did not feel well at all. BAttling allergy issues. But, stuck with my meals and supps. Today is my long day at work! So no workout for me, just supplements. Hoping to get up early tomorrow morning and workout before work! Hope you all are having a wonderful, healthy eating week!

[0nyx79]

Morning Ladies. I must say my heart was a little fast on the XAT-7. I took two. I was only going to take one today but just took two just now not thinking lol. I am about to go to body pump so Im excited to see if I work harder today with them! I felt great yesterday and I ran much easier as well. I didn't get pooped after my 30 sec sprints like I usually do. Yesterday was an easy workout today compared to my usual so today will really be the test. Body pump which is a full body weight workout and tonight is Body combat which is similar to kickboxing but SO much better! I will take the ignite before that class for sure and see how it really works! =)

[1Reddress]

Hey Hey!!

Started my day off with the CatScan...Results came back "good".(headaches will just hang around I guess for a bit)..I really really wanted to take a nap when I got home....ALMOST talked myself into it (I'm off work tonight) but took some XAT-7 and the Cardio Igniter and headed off to the gym!! I am SOOOOO glad I did! Absolutely awesome workout! Chest/Triceps/Abs/Legs/Calves/Cardio

@Escamarie- I have been CRAVING Zumba!! I love-love Zumba! (lost alot of my earlier weight with Zumba) Beto is pretty hot to watch too ;P

The 9th graders have thier own dance. Kinda different, but Change is GOOD! I don't need an 18 yr old senior boy lookin' at my 14 yr old daughter who's freshman.


Have a good evening everyone.

Good Morning Rockin Lean Ladies

My workout today is abs, glutes, hamstrings and calfs then 3 mile jog

[escamarie]

Happy Friday, Lean Ladies!!
I worked everything this morning at the gym, but alternated cardio with the weight machines. I use to do the 30 minute workout at Planet Fitness, which is what I modeled this after, and I got really toned before my wedding three years ago with it. Since there was time left before having to get ready for work, I hopped onto the stair machine. Hoping to get in a walk soon during break. Started the morning with some yummy Cardio Igniter then had one of each of the XAT-7, L-Carnitine, and FAS Lean. My stomach is getting use to it which is good. I'm going to wait maybe another week before uping one of them. We'll see.

[vminaya44]

Rockin Lean Ladies,

I just wanted to say all of you are doing a gret job keep it going.

[1Reddress]

Hey Hey You Rockin' Lean Ladies!!

Are you feelin' as awesome as I am?!!
Today was weigh in day for me as well as measurements and I am ecstatic! I really thought my scale was broken..OR I was gonna break it!! (one of the two) Since it has been stagnant for so long- except the "moving up" part! Sheesh!!
Needless to say I saw a weight today that I can't even remember seeing....It's been THAT long!! I was doing the Happy Dance and singing "Ohhhh Yeahhhhhh!!" all over my house! LOL

I was really excited to get to the gym. It seems that the time just speeds by nowadays!
I know that we're not supposed to compare ourselves to others, but there are these two gals (built) that I have seen lately...They came to use my machine, during my Super Set...thankfully, it didn't interfere..they were pretty quick. But when I went to sit down (middle back rower) The pin was only down 1 notch from mine! Talk about an ego booster!! Since I was sitting right next to them on the dip machine I saw them move it...Niiiiice!! I just want to keep on this awesome motivation level...It is absolutely awesome!!

Rest Well Ladies, Let's Rock This All Over Again Tomorrow!!

Sounds like a GREAT DAY! Keep up the hard work!

[racegal]

Happy Friday all! So glad it is the weekend, but it is going to be a busy one, yet again! Had a great back/legs/abs circuit with sprint intervals this morning. I was glad I got it in early, because shortly after, that darn visitor showed up and I have been having terrible cramps the rest of the day. It never fails that the first 24 hours are the worst. Bleh!
Used Cardio Igniter pre-workout and had one XAT-7 at 9:30 am and one at 3:30 am. Sticking with this for a bit to see how I tolerate it. If I start adjusting, I would also like to add the L-Carnatine + with it. I am easing into this so that I don't drive my husband crazy being too wired! haha
Tomorrow is going to be a rest day. I got my Polar FT7 today, so I am going to do my 24 hour burn test so that I can make some adjustments to my nutrition count if needed. I am also so excited to have something a little more accurate to see what my burns are during my workouts!
Tomorrow I am headed to the Northwest Natural Bodybuilding competition here in Boise, ID to cheer on my friend Marisa in the Bikini Division, then, it is my son's 18th birthday party! I am making a pretty cool cake that I am going to try really hard to avoid!

[beezee1143]
