    I am doing them, love them! I've been doing it since the fall, I usually alternate them with running.

    Did 1 round in 2013 and 1 in 2014….not currently using the program as a whole. JMBR & CLX are my all time fav programs, so I occasionally incorporate a workout to my current routine. Just did Burn it Off, my next will be Burn Intervals.

    Or is it just that cardio? I'm finding sometimes it's not me, it's the program ;)

    Nope, lol, it's cardio in general, I never even owned a pair of sneakers till my middle 40's!
    And totally agree with you about the program, there are a large number of "one and done" cardio dvd's sitting on the shelf.

    How is your nutrition? If it's around 3-5 pounds, it could be water weight, but I don't usually like to say that if it's been more than 2 days of fluctuation.

    @tabathavm, try to increase your water intake and are you on a deficit?

    @tabathavm, you're not alone, from Jan to April I gained 7 lbs and inches too! At the end of April I changed my cals and macros, and finally started to see a downward trend. I wonder if our bodies freak out in its own way then needs time to adjust...

    These calculators assume that you do *not* eat your cals back, where MFP is designed to eat your cals back...

    Great idea to up your protein!

    It depends on which calculator you are following, TDEE (scooby calculator already *includes* exercise calories) or MFP (does *not* include exercise calories, that why you eat them back)?

    No, do not eat back your exercise calories.

    I follow TDEE - 15% deficit...that seems to work best for me...

    Ok.
    I just did my scoobys calculator thing again because after reading your post something went off in my head and I just got the notion that maybe I read the wrong number so I went back and checked and I did...... Before i did scoobys i was doing somewhere in the 1400 and not eating back calories.
    so the first time I did Scoobys it's said to eat 1694 and I just rechecked it and in fact that was just my BMR ....I'm supposed to eat 1864. which is at a 20% deficit.

    Wow, if you need 1800 and you were at 1400, you were definitely under-eating!
    Your body will thank you for the extra fuel :)
