Great job!

crossfit is going to change your body composition but you still have to eat reasonably. You should eat more on cf days to fuel your body with some carbs after the workout. But doing cf doesn't give you an open book to eat what ever you want. you still have to monitor your food. Take your measurements and pictures so that…

If you are at a 800 calorie deficit you might not be eating enough on crossfit days. You have to fuel your body for those workouts. Eating something before and then adding more carbs after a workout. Helps you recover and your body won't think you are starving. You should be at 1400 calories on normal days and then up to…

I use a fitbit surge. It might not be totally accurate but it does give me a general idea on my effort.

Good luck! I'll add you!!

I don't know about mentor but I'll be your friend. It's a never ending process that is what I learnt! Good luck to you!!!

Hi! Good luck!! Adding you!

I added you!! Good luck!!

I just made an appointment with a naturopath! I'm hoping this is my answer. I think I have other hormone stuff too along with the perimenopause. I just need some relief!

That is awesome! Good luck!!

I am not sure if they are hot flashes or just hot. But I can't cool off now. Even at night with a low thermostat and a window unit and fan I'm sweating. It is miserable. Working out has been hard too because I get SO hot!!

Hi Y'all new here! But having same issues. I'm down to a period every other month or so. But still track on an app to see how far and few between they are getting and if my moods coordinate with any of it. But the hot flashes or just constantly being hot are killing me. Granted I live in South TX so it is freaking hot. But…

I will join please!

I'm a continual trier too!! I did quit smoking 5 years ago when I started the process of getting healthy. The weight has been something else. But slowly but surely I feel I'll get to that comfortable place!! Good luck on your efforts!!

Thank You! I am not going to do yoga every day. I'm probably a 2-3 times a week person. My main love is crossfit but I can only do that about 3 times a week and needed to add something so the walking and yoga are additions. Thank you all for your invites!!

Hi Y'all. I'm Terri. 49 and new to MFP. Was a sparkpeople user before that. Was close to goal weight a few years ago and have put it back on. I think a lot of hormone issues but really focused again and hoping that a new environment and new friends will push me in the right direction. Currently I crossfit 3 times a week,…

Thank You!

The best one for me is the Victoria Secret Bras. I have tried under armour and Nike and non are as comfortable or hold the girls like the VS bras do. And I need the support!! Well worth watching for the sales at VS to get a few.

I have been trying to decide whether to do it or not. I crossfit 3 times a week usually. But think I have some hormonal issues that are impeding my progress. And I really need to lose some fat along with gain muscle. Just can't decide if this is the right program for me. Is the constant measuring over whelming? I would…
