Hello,

I'm BB!! Heyas! I am 51 and live in Florida. I really want to take the fat off my body.

I have had the Oxycise program for a couple of years and I just never "got" it.!!. So I placed the DVDs on the bookshelf to collect dust.

When I receive the newsletters I sit back and marvel at the success of others. Then I say, "really"?? Then I wonder what the heck am I doing wrong?!

I'm going to do the program and work through the hard parts.

I will keep ya'll posted. And I will ask for help, too.

Hello BB and welcome to Oxycise.

Don't let the DVD's gather dust! Take one out and watch it. You can go at your own pace and do the moves you like the best. I skip the moves I don't like and do more of the ones I do like. I have also found that I don't care much for the three sniffs so I bypass that and try to take in more air with the inhale and then blow it out with extra gusto..as I hold in my abs. Don't hold your abs while you are inhaling though. Relax while inhaling. Anyway, thats what works for me.

Work through the DVD's. They're worth the money you spent. You'll wonder why you didn't try it again sooner.

Come talk with us on the Determine to Lose (D2L) thread. We post daily on there. Good luck and welcome back

Welcome, BB! I hope you'll get this figured out. Remember that it took us all awhile to "get it". In fact, I lost 30 pounds doing it wrong!!!! Shows what just getting some decent oxygen into my body did.
Go to the top of the board, and under "Newsletters and Announcements", read the breathing tips. They are very, very helpful.
DO ask questions, and please join us on the daily thread! We're always glad to try to help.
I'm 51 also...for a few more days.

Hi BB! Welcome to the message board!

If anything, just do the deep breathing. Even that without the extra sniffs/puffs is supposed to be beneficial.

Hope to see you posting with us in the D2L thread!

HI and Welcome; I'm back after a few months off, and it's great to see both new and familiar faces!!

Love,
Helene
