  • Wow seeing all these comments has me worried! After entering my info the suggested was 1240...I thought that was too low so I set my goal for 1350, but usually eat around 1400 a day. Just started last 2 weeks ago. Lost 2 pound though! So confused I wonder if I should eat more ?
  • Haha, thanks for making me laugh! Oh trust me I will still enjoy my hot cheetos sometimes! Just once in a while and a small bag. I use to binge eat two large bags of chips on the weekend(i just love them that much) I know I do need to cut back, but heck no I still eat real food. I try to eat as much chicken and fish as…
  • Yeah, I dont calculate anything actually! I just was trying to eat the recommended amount that was suggested. Not including what I burn from exercise. Oh really?! Interesting, yeah I just enter how many minutes my pacer records my activity at. I do that at the end of the night when I am going to bed. So I never eat any of…
  • I set it to sedentary, I never actually got around to changing this.... now that I am walking. No I dont eat any of those calories back I just ignore them actually. I have been trying to eat around 1350 actually a day, but I do find myself a little hungry when going to bed, usually after a hard workout.
  • Well congrats on your progress! That is amazing! My recommended weight is at max 140. So I have a good 40-50 pounds to go! I am making small goals of course and like you mentioned looking into eating healthy. Both my grandparents suffer from high blood pressure, so I took what the doctor gave them and also did some…
  • Thank you for that information. I am looking for one that is local unfortunately there are only a few. I am doing my best to meal prep and just eat food I enjoy such as lean meats and veggies( I could just live off this!) I can not have milk so I know I need to actually speak with a professional. I am afraid I am missing…
  • Really? I have had so many people tell me this! Well good to know thanks! I did buy a scale and plenty of measuring cups. I meal prep every few days as well:) Thanks!
  • Yes I understand that. I do not expect to lose weight rapidly. Like I stated my main goal is to become healthy, due to feeling sick every single day. Yes I was hoping she could refer me to a dietitian or someone who could help but she was actually quite rude to me about the subject. The app recommended 1240 calories a day,…
  • I work in a office setting, but I do make it a point to walk(alot). I am getting around 8,000 - 12,000 steps in a day. I am trying to work out at least 3 times a week. HIIT workouts(my knees hurt) so I take it easy with those, and just lots of walking. I am begging to add weights to my routine as well, since I heard so…
  • I personally do not like gyms(bad experience)! I bought a pedometer, and my phone has a built in one as well. I use both to calculate my walking distance. I will be investing in a nicer one soon. I just walk lots of walking, its amazing(outside, inside around my house, anywhere!) I literally throw on my headphones, blast…
  • I try to weigh myself once a week, although some weeks I just want to get on the scale everyday! I know myself and its best for me to just wait a week because then I do usually see some progress:) Always in the morning before my shower.:)
  • My best friend began herbalife in May. We both went on a healthy journey I choose to count calories and began meal planning. Which helped me because I'm always on the go! We walked every night for a hour at our local track and ate healthy. She replaced her meals with the shakes and was doing good. Lost 20 pound that month.…
  • Would love some new friends :) motivation is always welcomed!
