@myrianne93 that's a great reason! You'll both benefit and he'll have an amazing role model, too!

My habit is going to be making sure I have a weekly deficit of 5,000 at least, and track daily :)

It's probably going to be less all out HIIT and more Moderate Intensity Interval Training? Most of the 30 minute HIIT programs aren't all out, that I've seen, anyway.
-
I think it's actually better to log even over calories - you often overeat less than you think you do, and it can be good to see that one over day doesn't take away too much from your weekly deficit. If you log as you go, or even write down in a diary if you can't log it here, it'll also help you to not go too overboard-…

Any exercise, if you're at a deficit, is going to be a bonus for weight loss really. Even if it's just walking a bit more! 30 mins of HIIT will definitely be enough if you're just looking to help along the weight loss, provided you don't eat back the calories.

Sent you an invite there :)

I made it my mission in work to do 250 steps an hour at least and I burn around 300 more calories a day! Plus mentally, I feel so much better!
-
Added you!

True enough. There's some really big programs too that you pay a lot for and basically get told "Do HIIT and don't eat many carbs".

If this is about my post, I've sent an invite now :)

Well done!

Same here! Especially MMX and CVX (?). There's a tabata part of IM30, too!

@khaoulakash that's all anyone could ask for! :)

@khaoulakash I think everyone feels like that sometimes, I know I definitely do! Just focus on how far you've come and how great it is you're taking the first step- that's often the most difficult part, mentally, so you're already doing so well!
-
You're already super pretty @khaoulakash! You've got this! :)

I used to get shin splints all the time before I lost some weight and started lifting weights. Getting your strength up through low impact but intense resistance training could help you in the long term and adding muscle will help with your calorie burn (and ultimately fat loss) too.
-
Added you both! :)

I have a Charge HR and love it. I like the 250 an hour step goals, the tap screen, and the silent alarms too- very handy. Tracks my heart rate and calorie burn well, and I love that the app tells you your calorie budget based on actual calorie burn, instead of just general guidelines- it's more personalised. Just my…

Initially I just wanted to look letter- but now it's so much more than that. I want to be fit, healthy, and most of all, strong! I never wanted to be the girl who could lift heavy things before but now I'm starting to, I'm really getting into it!
-
Managed to burn off 1,000 calories more than I ate. Didn't stick to 1,200 but didn't blow it like I thought I would before starting properly tomorrow!

Added!

All invited! :)

It may sound funny, but I like to do workouts that make me feel like a badass, basically. Boxing, lifting- anything where afterwards I go "I am getting stronger!". It makes it feel less like effort, and more like I'm pushing towards being a better person- someone who is tough, and strong, and can fight for themselves.
-
First thing in the morning, before eating, after going to the bathroom. Most consistent, I think.
-
Libra here too. I'm also trying out Scaless, which is quite good, too. I track on those every day, and then track once a week on MFP.

Add me if you want!
