Aside from that, here are some comments and notes I've found helpful I posted these elsewhere recently but there are a variety of factors that matter…bottomline is…

Eat plenty of protein.…

I used my OT heart rate monitor and my peloton to compare stats for my 45 min cycling class last night... OTB 564 cals and avg HR of 145... Peloton was 485 cals and avg HR of 145...I guess they are fairly close but that 80 cals is like 4 TBS of 1/2&1/2... and almost a glass of wine...

Wow, of course! Thanks so much for pointing this out Victoria! Why didn't I think of that... I am wondering how my peloton and my heart rate monitor may differ in their estimates of my calorie burn... This is why I also try not to give myself credit for my exercise calories in my diary, at least not while I'm building up…

Hi and welcome! The other thing to remember is that you may be swapping out muscle weight for fat weight... take your measurements, those are important too. This is particularly true if you aren't significantly overweight. While a lb is a lb... muscle takes up less space... Also If you utilize a strength training regimen,…

Hi Ya'll, I'm 53 and my metabolism hit a wall last year... ugh. 135#...targeting 120 and have a lot of work to do do build muscle!

Historically my weight loss success and ability to maintain always centered around consistent time spent with cardio and strength training, at least 4-5 days per week. Calorie counting never really worked for me. But here I am now over 50, 5'5", 134 lbs and stuck yo-yoing about 15ish lbs above my fighting weight... grrrgh.…

Also, lifting weights (not sure that resistance training is the same) made all the difference for me once upon a time...

Day 10 & 11 done... gosh I hate that I got so behind... Decided to switch up the plain lunges for curtsy lunges since my hips feel really tight...good for those inner thighs too I think! https://goo.gl/images/2ztEgW

omg... OBSESSED. Coconut strips are a sweet snack that aren't that healthy but I don't feel so bad, their califlower rice is a blessing since I don't have a food processor, additionally their pre washed veggies and pre-cut fruits save me a ton of time!... As do their precooked roasted sweet potatoes, lentils and brussel…
