What kind of fat are you talking about? As I am trying to keep my saturated fat to a very low / non-existent amount while the other fats I consume at any rate for the most part. @EVERYONE ABOVE - Great inspiration to know the belly crap can go away!

I updated my post as I forgot one website that I liked. check them out.

And they…

I'm open to your opinion. On days I strength train I take in 210-225 grams of protein, about 1600 calories. On general HIIT carido I take in 185 grams of protein and about 1400 calories.

Good Job!

I think a real question you need to ask yourself is what are you buying it for? Smart watch capabilities or fitness capabilities? While I know this one wasn't in your group, I personally chose the Microsoft Band 2 due to the accuracy I was seeing in reviews. A video that might help is…

For me the elliptical was the best. It was easy on my body when I was starting and with the option to change the settings, such as resistance and cross-ramp, I was able to start out easy and whenever I felt like I needed to make it harder(I based that off my heart rate, I liked to keep it at 130-170) I'd just up the…

Just turned 32. Didn't hit my goal of being at 15-18% body fat before my 32nd but I am close. SW 327 CW 211.3 GW 185-195

211.3 lb - 22.2% bf - Long journey and these last miles seem more like lightyears away.

Day 4: 1:45 - 1:51

Something my trainer has told me in the past, being sore is fine but not pain. If it hurts take a break and give your body time to heal. There is no point in progressing if all your doing is more harm than good. Doing these planks is building new muscle, so you might need a break. In other words be safe. The spine is not…

Day 2: 1:35 - 1:35

Day 2: 1:35 - 1:35

I'll join in. I would love to get to 4min. Day 1: 1:15 - 1:30

Also, is there a type of food I should be eating more of after strength vs cardio days? As it stands I am 70% protein then the rest for the most part is vegetables and fruit with a small amount of starch carbohydrates each time I workout.

It sounds like so far what I have been doing is correct. Eat enough to maintain my 12-1400 per day goal even with the calories burned during workout. Like today, I should eat 22-2400 to make up for the 1000 lost during cardio, correct? Or to your point Alatariel75, maybe 1900-2150 depending on the percentage I am making…

For the most part my strength day isn't around weights them self but using body weight. I have a high focus on core and general strength. I am doing cardio so much because last month I set a goal of running a 5k in March/April(depending on temperature) then a 10k in June/July. My co-workers keep asking me if I want to join…

Two questions.* What is considered a reasonable deficit? * I thought the protein .65-.85 was per kg not lb?

According to google my BMI is 29.2.

ha! that just means pounds. My current plan for that is just eat right(or so I think so far) and workout. I am doing a lower calorie diet and working out 5-6 times a week. Two days strength with my trainer and 3-4 times cardio.

No, but I am not sure of that number as I do no remember from the test. I do not know what LBM is, so I cannot answer that.

I know my end goal I want to be 15% or less body fat and I just scaled in at 27%.

No, but with more than one of you asking it sounds like I should set a goal per week. I was just basing it off of do I see any loss per week, wasn't watching the amount all the much.

I am trying the same thing. First time I tried to quit I was SO angry the first few days and was going to visit my sister and kids that I just smoked again so I wouldn't take it out on them. Starting tomorrow I am going to try again, but this time I am going to start with the smoking portion not the nicotine part. I am…

Yes, MFP just had me do that. I've been around 1200-1400 since August. MFP tells me I can do more and still hit my goal just I got so used to the type of food I have a hard time increasing it. What I know I need to do is focus more on macro and the type of calories I am taking in since I started to weight lift and workout…

Only went 4 days without logged in the last 80ish days. Food scale every day :) Patients is not something I have but I know it will take time as it took so long to put on it will take a while to come off.

I don't have any set amount. I only start to get bothered if it doesn't move at all or goes up by a bit.

Ah, just based on what you were saying in the amount of weeks then I am not plateauing. I am just being picky.

Raspberries & Pineapple Smoothie or if I am really willing to cheat, I go with Oh's Cereal... for that I need to pour it into a cup first and then remove the box from my eye sight.
