I'm new to the MYAC, but I need some motivation to get moving. My goal is 85 miles in the month of October. I'm off to a VERY slow start for October (I have been on fall break this week). 10/1 ~ 1.19 10/2 ~ 1.82 10/3 ~ 1.61 Here's to a great month of moving!

I LOVE your post. And I must admit that I, too, have broken EVERY one of the rules that you listed!!! I agree, some days you just need a dang pop tart -- all 400 calories (or in my case a blizzard from Dairy Queen and not the mini one a small or medium) :wink: Thank you for your very real post. I think most of us can…

I am/was having the same problem. I wear my Fitbit all the time and I log my exercise activity in MFP. I don't log anything in the fitbit program. I don't eat back any of the activity calories from my fitbit -- I don't know if you've noticed or not, but as you become less active at night it will begin to take away those…

I'll be starting 30 day Shred on Monday (7/1). This will be my first attempt also. Can't wait to see the results. Good Luck!!

I'm 5'4" and have about 35 pounds to go. I'd love the support and encouragement. I'm struggling to find a happy place with exercise and eating. What do you all think about (or how do you handle) eating exercise calories? I've been exercising 5-6 days a week and the scale hasn't budged in 2 weeks (I've lost some inches).…

bump for later

Thanks for the info. I just realized yesterday that my net calories are no where close to 1200 so I need to up my intake. My goal today is to revamp my meals/snacks and get in more (healthy) calories. I think for about a week I've only been netting about 800 or 900 calories -- probably the reason I'm not seeing any lose.

Insanity Friends ~ Another question. This is month 1, week 2 for me and I'm wondering did you all change your MFP goals to increase your activity level when you began Insanity? I still have my activity level set at "light activity" and I think Insanity qualifies as more activity... :laugh: I'm not sure if it makes a…

I just started Week 2 today. The soreness will get better. I was the same way, but I went ahead and did each day as suggested in the plan outline and it does get better. I still have some soreness, but nothing like the 1st two days. Keep going -- stay strong!! Good Luck!!

Week 1 = DONE!!! It's been a long week, but I've found that if I get up and workout 1st thing I tend work harder. I can't wait to see if Week 2 is easier... Thanks for all of the support and encouragement. :smile:

I need some help from those of you that have been at this for a while. I'm only on week 1 and just completed day 4 -- Cardio Recovery and I didn't enjoy the workout and it is a let down from the others; if that makes any sense at all. I'll be going back to work in about 2 weeks (school teacher) and I'm thinking about…

Hello All ~ I just finished the Fit Test (day 1) and I'm wondering how you all are tracking calories burned? I bought a watch style HRM and it said that I only burned 30 calories... that can't be right, can it??? Also, those of you that have been at this a couple of weeks ~ did you increase your calorie count from the…

I'm In: Start Date: 7/16 End Date: mid-September Following Nutrition Guide: no Starting weight: 190ish Goal Weight (for insanity): 175-180 (I just want to complete the program and not die) :laugh: I'm looking forward to the accountability and encouragement of this group.

I'm new to MFP and this is my first attempt at counting calories instead of points, but I've been recording my food choices for about 2 weeks and my choices are getting better!! I'm looking forward to learning from everyone here and seeing everyone's progress! 5'4" HW - 199.6 CW - 196.8 SW - 196.8 90 Day Goal: 166 Over all…
