Beautiful!

I'm using the classes to improve my strength and flexibility. Weight loss will come with diet.

Thank you everyone! Unfortunately I do not own a bike and do not enjoy running so I cannot follow those suggestions. I was so tired this morning that I slept and missed both 6am classes. So by default it will be yoga tonight. I go to classes as I found I have made significant progress in building strength and agility vs my…

All of the sudden back in August I had this "ah-ha" moment. I realized that if I get up and go to the gym first thing in the morning for a 6 AM class that means I have accomplished my exercise plan for the day and nothing else will get in the way of me getting to the gym and doing what I need to do for myself. My entire…

I'm struggling too. This is life transforming change we're making versus a 21-day program. I carefully weigh and track my food. The meals I like and that feel nutritionally appropriate (i.e. Macro ratio, satisfying etc) I put in the recepie and meal section so I'm essentially building my own meal plan as I go along. There…

I started with daily weigh ins but lately do twice a week. I track my weight in mfp which gives you a nice graph. I also track my waist and hip measurements in the app as well.

I also have type 2 diabetes. I'd cut back on the eggs and cheese and use the mfp tracker to look at how much cholesterol you're taking in. Avocado has become a big staple for me. I also cut back on refined carbs and replaced them with black and garbanzo beans and low sodium Ezekiel bread. I have a long way to go on…

I used TDEE to calculate how many calories and macros to eat but track everything in MFP. What does NEAT mean?

I really enjoy wines and now have 3 unfinished bottles open and don't want to waste them!

Campbell's slogan is true...Soup is good food!!!

I stuck to my plan for 80/20 allowing myself a glass of wine, some challah and dessert at each meal. And I only took one dessert and two glasses of wine plus challah over the entire 4 meals. So I consider it a win!

I'm in! 5'3" 190 today I do not eat my exercise calories I run 20min 3x/wk Weight class 2x/wk Free weights 1x/wk Yoga 2x/wk If I have time I'll go to Zumba 1-2x/wk to unwind!

Yup I'm working to avoid eating my exercise calories. That was a bad habit I had. But so far, most days, it appears I have broken the habit.

I'm a desk jockey too! So my intake is 1280 and I run about a 500 deficit -- I think-- that's something I haven't really paid attention too because I've been more focused on staying on track for the intake calorie and carb ratio - and getting a daily workout in! I'm eating about 100g carbs a day. I'm going over 40g in…

My gym offers weigh training classes on two consecutive days and as I'm limited to going to gym to 6am. I want to do these classes as I perform better in a class. But then it means training two days in a row. Thoughts?

Thank you everyone who replied. Yes I am also working on reducing my caloric intake, tracking my food and increased water intake to about 100oz a day. I've lost about 10lbs since August 1, 2016. I'm a diabetic, have a very sedentary work at home job and am a single parent. So I'm looking for success stories about what has…

I'm 5'3" and 194 today. I'm 47. I'm scared of failure and saved your post because you inspire me. Thank you!

Great suggestions! I am getting into a routine of taking a supplement. I'm a diabetic so I need to watch the nut milks. As for soy--I'm very sensitive so I have it only twice a week. Thank you for your input!
