    yesterday was my fit test so im starting today! anyone have any tips on what they are eating? how much etc? everyone keeps saying to eat more calories and mfp says to eat 1200 a day to lose weight. how much are you guys eating? are u guys following the harris benedict equation to calculate your intake? because if i do that, my caloric intake needs are 1800-1900! im hoping i dont go overboard with this cuz eating a lot is already the root of the problem!

    also, id like to know if any of you bought extra protein powder or the recovery shake?

    sorry i have so many questions im just a little misguided.

    Thanks!

    I did the fit test yesterday and I am starting today. I think support/motivation is going to be needed for this program...or just someone to share stories with about our pain etc....:laugh:

    Feel free to add me as a friend

    I'm 5 weeks in, good luck to everyone! I will say the most common thing I've seen is under eating the program than over eating. I bet if you would have tracked your calories when you were gaining weight you probably would have averaged over your current maintenance, now however, you will be working your but off....literally!

    Just so you know, I'm 4'11" and I set MFP to 1470 and eat back the calories I burn daily. That means I'm eating between 1600 and 2000 calories a day, so probably avg of 1850 or 1900 daily. I have lost 12+ inches overall, but only 4lbs. But my body is shrinking and I've already gone down one pant size.

    So in the end, I would say, eat to support your workouts, as you strengthen your muscles, you will be burning even more. I hear month 2 you start to drop like crazy...I Cant wait! I LOVE these! It is a love/hate relationship with Shaun T.........I hate him during, but I love what he is doing for my body!!!

    Good luck everyone and add me if you need some hope!

    One other thing.........I'm a 47 year old fat person, LOL. I'm a grandma, I have 64 lbs to loose, well 60 now, I was sedentary and horribly out of shape. So if I can do this, all y'all can too!!
