I hardly ever post but thought that whatI am experiencing now might be of help to someone else
I have been tapping on and off since 2001. (I think) Although I really always thought Ttapp was terrific I never lost any significant amount of weight or inches. It aways kept me fit, firm and maintained my flexibility even better than yoga. In fact I liked better than yoga in some ways cause in demanded concentration which makes it almost meditative. And Ttapp arms are the best looking things around!
So I would quit but I always came back for the Ttapp "fix". Well this time is different. I am not dieting. I eat what I want and stop when I am full. I started w/ BWO+ every day. EOD I would do cardo. After awhile I worked up to doing a full WO EOD. At first I chose Ladybug or Tempo. Now I like Torso or the first halves of Maxi 1 or 2 mixed in EOD. (They're shorter!) I do cadrio EOD for 1/2 hr on the off days.
Here's the thing. THIS IS SO MUCH LESS THAN I WAS DOING BEFORE. That is the difference. And it is the biggest difference in the world. It is like I am losing everyday. I eat something that is "bad" , usually two somethings, and expect that the next day I will pay. Instead my jeans are getting looser. I think the difference is just that I am totally paying complete attention to form. I can do it now because I am doing less. Every move I do I try to do to the max. It's not pretty! I think I am finally using leverage and the push/pull idea.
As I have said before, I wish I listend, processed, and internalized this information before. I was doing so many things wrong. I have the Retreat dvd and I practice one move at a time. I wasn't losing because I wasn't really doing Ttapp. Wow am I a slow learner or what.
When I started losing I was so surprised. In fact i was almost worried that I was sick because I had never lost weight/inches like this before! I still remain amazed and want to stay on this ride forever!
hope this has not been too boring.
