Please don’t be hard on yourself. You are doing the best you can. I believe that. I hope you do as well. Hugs and encouragement!

Can't wait to get started! Thanks Kristen!

I would love to join the next challenge!

Saved this on my favorites. I need to read this often. Bumped!

Check out Veena and Neena's videos. They are identical twins and have several videos. Some of their videos are made to be workouts and you will work up a sweat. The instructional videos are not much of a workout until you get good at the moves and can really dance on your own. :smile:

Well, never mind. I just checked out the help section and found my answer. I ordered a Jawbone UP yesterday so I should be able to tell how many calories I burn once I start using it. I am just now learning how important it is to eat enough calories.

I just completed Day 1 and recorded my sets and reps on MFP. I am confused and disappointed that there is no info on how many calories I burned. This is the first time I have done any strength training and would like to understand.

I would really like to join. I haven't been able to keep my motivation going. I think this will help!
