I come from a long line of ice tea addicts with multiple pitchers full on the counter for all day anytime consumption. I imagined that I would become the feral cat with caffeine withdrawal, but amazingly, it was not difficult. I was over caffeine in 3 days and 1 migraine.

And in addition to the Dove’s Bodies Total Body Workout DVDs which should be done one per day from start to finish without breaks as she’s playing with your heart rate constantly, there is, drum roll please, …

CARDIO…

Oh how I hated cardio and each time I did a Dove’s Bodies DVD I saw those machines lurking in the background. However, Dove helped me tremendously here. She told me not to think of doing it to get a “high” but rather do it for tissue change. Ahh. All this time I never got a joy state like others. Dove said she doesn’t either but she does it anyway. Coming from 5 minutes on the elliptical, my intuition finally told me to buy a treadmill. OMG OMG OMG I’m so glad I did. I got a bad ass one too with fans and docking station for an iPod and speakers and tweeters. I can go uphill, downhill or flat. Twenty minutes flies by. Yes I wear my MBT shoes!! Dove likes the 4.0 speed. I think she said she did intervals. There were two days that I pushed and I did 45 minutes but for right now, I’m happy being happy with 20 minutes. I do this 4 days a week. My ‘Dove goal’ she gave me is 6 days at 45 minutes each.

Dove prefers cross-training-cardio and does treadmill, elliptical and recumbent. Oh and she can do a mean jump rope.

Okay. Now you have a plan. A plan that works and takes the mystery out of “should I or shouldn’t I do XYZ?” However if you have specific issues, I encourage you not to buy that dress or jacket and invest in a consult for you with Dove.

I’ve lost many inches, gained more definition, am much tighter, youthful, and as Dove said, not only can you gain all of those qualities, but you will change the tissue quality on the inside which is necessary to help the cellulite go bye-bye.

Wow. After all these years, I’m saying goodbye to my cellulite. There was a fix. Aren’t some new relationships just plain wonderful?!

It turned out that Dove Rose is a pretty good magic bullet.
