..:::Turbo Fire:::...



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I am finally getting back on track with my food and so I am ready to start concentrating on exercise. I was wondering if anyone has tried the Turbo fire. Lets be honest at 270lbs no exercise is easy and on the videos the people are like 120 to start so i was wondering if anyone closer to my weight has tried them and are they too hard at this weight or did you do just fine? They look like a blast but really hard so before I waste my money, I wanted some opinions! Thanks!

I have Turbo Fire and I was doing it before my surgery and I'm hoping to start it once it again. It's very fast but they show you how to modify everything. You can also try Turbo Jam, it's by Charlene as well and it's like Turbo Fire, but not as ampped. LOL I was banded on 6/9 and I have to wait til 3 weeks to do ad workouts so I'm hoping to start again next week. She also has great music.

:lol:

I bought Turbo Fire and personally HATED it. I ended up returning it. I'm not even uncoordinated and felt that eventually my legs and arms were flailing around at such a high rate of speed I was going to end up twisted like a pretzel. IMO, she didn't explain things that well, didn't spend a lot of time on a move, you have about 10 seconds to grasp something before she was onto something else. Like I said, I'm not uncoordinated by any means, I've done years and years of aerobic type of activities and currently Zumba, but yeah, just didn't like the whole Turbo Fire thing.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
