I did Power 90 a couple years ago. I ddn't make it all the way through because of other things going on in my life, but over the 2 month I did it and tracked on here, I lost a little over 25 lbs. The first level is about 30 minutes for the strengthening days and about 45 for the cardio and abs, and go up a bit more on the…

If you know at the beginning of the day what you'rew going to do for a workout that night, you can put in the workout before you actually do it, and it will make the calculations for you, so you'll know during the day how many extra you're going to have.

I woul suggest starting with a different product of their's first. It's on their website and it's called Power 90 and it was the precursor to P90X. It's a fairly simple program, less than an hour, but a great workout. Last time I was on here regualrly and using it to workout, I lost 20 -25 lbs on it. All you need for it is…

The way I've done it with my recipes is I add up all the ingredents together and the tell it that the serving size is a fration of the entire batch. I did that before they added the recipes opton, so I just did that under my foods.

Stress can also lead to a bit of weight gain. When you have high amounts of stress, your body releases hormones into your body that when the levels stay up fo a while, can lead to weight gain. Here's an article about it: http://stress.about.com/od/stresshealth/a/weightgain.htm So, now that your finals are done, you should…

1 Banana 8 Hulled Strawberries 1/2 cup plain yogurt 1/2 cup skim milk 6 ice cubes It's technically supposes to be 2 servings, but I drink the whole thing at one sitting. I modified it froma recipe I got on allrecipes.com, which is a very good site for finding recipes.

Howdy MyFitnessPal folks. Just writing to see what people listen to when they workout. I need a fast or aggressive beat to the music, just curious what way others go. The songs are in the order they happen to be in today, since I just load them onto my Zune and the have it shuffle... It's So Easy - Willy DeVille Never…

When I get desperate enough to use lotion, I use Vasoline Intensive Rescue.

I'm not a lotion user either, but when my hands get all dried out and crack, I use Vasoline Intensive Care lotion. It's pretty good about not leaving my hands feeling greasy. Also, uping your water intake may help as well.

Absolutely. Just like with starvation mode when you aren't getting enough calorie, if you aren't getting enough water, you're body tried to hold on to it as much as it can. Plus your body simply doesn't work as efficiently when it's dehydrated. That's why when I was getting ready to lose weight I bought a Nalgene 32oz…

I don't have a specific recipe for you, but if you go to www.allrecipes.com the have a ton of recipes that you can scope out.

Hey noid, why didn't you come to me with your question?!?!? Before anyone gets on my case about calling her "noid", she's my sister and I call her that sometimes. :bigsmile: I recently read something where the caffine in coffee and tea are negligable, as in, before some people said you had to "counteract" every cup of…

Thanx a whole bunch. :smile: Looks like I'm not going to be able to eat all my calories on Saturday if I'm going to be massaging as much as I think I will...

Just wondering if anyone who has any idea roughly how many calories are burned doing an hour of basic Swedish massage... Gonna have a full day of doing massage on Saturday and I'd like to know how many calories I'm burning so I can make some effort to not be too low on my total calories for the day... Thanx.

1. What are your starting, current and goal weights? 255, 239.2, 200 2. What's been the hardest thing since beginning your weight-loss journey? Keeping up with the laundry, since I "dirty" two shirts a day now... 3. What's your favourite exercise? My Power 90 4. What's your favourite healthy snack? Roasted Garlic Tricuits…

Only way I could do that is if I threw out my scale. I weigh everyday, a few times a day. I call it being overtrained. I wrestled for 14 years, and so with having to make weight, I was constantly checking my weight. And now that I'm trying to lose again, well, old habits die hard... :ohwell: :laugh:

I go under the same thought as GettingThin08. I don't eat for the last 3 hours (at least) before bed.

When I work out, I'm not really looking at what I burned for calories. This is probably a throwback to when I was in sports, but for me, whether or not it was a good workout comes down to how hard did I work? If I worked hard, built up a good sweat and pushed as best I could without risking hurting myself, then it was a…

Home. When I sign up for the gym I might as well be flushing the money down the toilet, since I can never get myself to go... :laugh:

I wrestled for 14 years and from 6th grade through the second to last year I was in college, I always had to diet to make weight. I got tired of it and so I stopped paying any attention and my eating habits weren't great to start with, so slowly but surely I gained, and gained, and gained. Every now and then I'd take a…

Put the chicken in and…

I'm a big fan of Power 90 by Beachbody. They also have some other programs on their site that many on here seem to really like. :bigsmile:

Power 90 program is a fantastic thing. :bigsmile:

My results are very atypical... Started on here on October 20th and have lost about 15 lbs. Plus 5 more the two week before I started on my exercise program and on here.

I always workout before I have my first meal (I work a 2nd shift job, so my schedule is a little weird and my first meal is usually lunch). When I used to get up early and go to the gym, I'd usually feel sick when I worked out on an empty stomach too. So I would have either Slimfast or a Carnation Instant Breakfast before…

I use use the Power 90 and on the Sculpt (resistance band/weight) days, I put it in a circuit training and the Sweat (cardio) days I put general aerobic.

I have them most every evening at work. My fav is the Creamy Rigatoni with Broccoli and Chicken.

And introduce myself. :smile: I'm Dan and I've been using this site for a little over 2 weeks now. My sister showed it to me, and I've been tracking since 10/20. Main reason I'm here is to use the tools. They've made tracking everything a whole lot easier. And I like to try to help people when they have a problem and I…
