At a weight of 200ish I only burned about 200 cals in 30 min, 2 miles. So for me its less than walking at 4mph.

Double post:grumble:

I havd heard peoplemention this but not with much explanation. Thanks.

Depending on the type of yoga you can get a really good strength workout. Some people think yoga is lame because it is mostly about stretching, but stretching is VERY important! Most people do not stretch enough so adding yoga is a good way to do more. And flexibility is important as well.

This!

Not to be all judgey cuz I don't always eat the best either, but since you asked and your diet is public.... You eat a lot of processed foods and drink soda on what seems to be a daily basis. I know it can be hard to figure out how to buy healthy food on a budget but beans & rice (dried) are inexpensive. Frozen veggies go…

[/quote] NO! There's already alcohol and fake butter on the table! Enough loaded weapons in this pic [/quote] Actually it's apple cider I can see the Martinelli's logo.... But the fake butter is inexcusable! :laugh:

And the opposite can be true. There are some things where MFP overestimates.

This except I don't just bet it I am positive and I don't think they will ever visit us or vice versa.

Love this!

Thanks for all the replies. I think I will ck for the where I crease when I bend and measure there. That is what I thought but 40 lbs later my belly button is definitely lower.

It would be fun to wear a HRM while reading this thread. I bet my pulse increases enough for it to think I'm burning some serious calories...

You are definitely not alone. I wonder about calories in all my vitamins and supplements.

Enter breastfeeding in the food section and there are a lot of options based on age of child and exclusive bfing or not. Most are about 500 cals.

I don't do cheat days cuz I don't have any forbidden foods on my diet.

You can weigh more and be smaller. Really depends on body composition. Last time I weighed 199 I did NOT fit into size 14 jeans. and now I do.

Die Hard a chic flick? No! But Live Free or Die Hard? YES!!! Cute boys and at the end implication of people getting together. Totally qualifies

The most popular threads pop up on the side bar. And the less nutrition/fitness oriented threads seem to be more popular. You can still find it in those section of the msg boards and in groups. I have found lots of people now have those posts in their groups which do not appear on the general msg boards or side bar.

I asked this before on FB and one of my friends said the miracle noodles have a fishy taste and an odd texture. They said if you are looking for something to replace noddles in Italian dishes this is not the way to go, but if you are using them in Asian dishes they work fine.

If you weigh about the same amount and it is taking you the same amount of time to walk those 3 miles then just based off common sense I agree with your Dr. If you weigh a considerably different amount and/or are doing it a LOT faster or slower then I think the calorie burn could be different. I have heard that HRMs don't…

Unless it is actually Christmas or Christmas Eve, I think it is odd when someone says Merry Christmas. Until it is actually Christmas -Happy Holidays makes more sense to me. No one would say Happy Thanksgiving on Nov 10th....

I want to know the weight of these women and more details. Also I would like to point out A - VERY small sample size. B- The follow up is listed after 4 weeks and they say they followed the women for 4 months. What were the final results? Not saying it doesn't work. Just my analytically research oriented mind wants to know…

This site is great! If you long on often and keep track of your calories- exercise and food you should see results and if you ck out the msg boards, blogs and groups you should easily be able to find people to lose weight with.

^^^ THIS times a billion!

It's really individualized. They always say you lose weight easier if you do BF, but I know people who have a hard time losing weight until they stop. And there are people who BF and lose all the weight super quick. It isn't that your body thinks it is still pregnant, it's that producing milk takes a lot of work/burns…

Depends on where you live. At my lattitude (WA/ID pretty much any state touching/near Canada) we really can't get enough vitamin D from the sun Nov-Apr....

Well based on us being in the same challenge I would say go with the lower one. BUT if your hrm takes weight into account I would go with it. Or if you aren't sure do 500, which is in the middle of the 2 #s you got.

I normally eat whatever I want, I was only resisting this time due to not being sure if I was really wanting it or just stressed out.

I had some ham and an apple. Now deciding on what I want for dinner, might still have ice cream later...

Yeah! makes me a lot closer to overweight than I had thought! And my wrists stay about the same size when i lose weight, but my feet do get a bit smaller.
