Hi, I new here. I love the way things are on this site. I have been searching for a place to log my food, but haven't found one I like. I have lost 45 pounds since Sept. 08 and I am currently training for my first Figure Competition. I am excited to see all the new changes!

    Thanks you guys! I am having Mia Finnegan help coach me and I am also going to join Tanji Johnson's Save Fitness Team. Hopefully, I will be stage ready with their help in no time! I find that being a stay-at-home mom of 3 little ones is a huge distraction for me.

    This weekend I am buying extra storage containers so I can prepare my meals for the week, or at least a few days!

    Kris, my question to you is did you go by the recommended calories and macro breakdown on here? I have already changed mine a bit, but not sure where I should be exactly. Good luck at your competition! Let me know how it goes!

    Sorry for the late reply but I've been a little crazed the last few days. I have 2 little "distractions" too and of course one of them has to be sick this week! I completely changed the macros depending on my stage of prep. In general, I increased the protein and decreased carbs and fat. Then, the last 6 weeks I cycled carbs. I'm wishing right now I had a figure coach to help me with this peak week thing!
