  • I'd say loosen your grip and/or try some classes. If your gym offers classes you should give them a try, yes a lot of them are predominantly female but the cardio benefits apply to men just as much as they do women. You could also swap out machines maybe try an elliptical one day, a bike the next, then the stair climbing…
  • I'd say if your gonna add exercise put yourself on sedentary and only eat back half your calories.
  • It makes a predicted amount you've burnt today it averages out how many you've burnt since 12:01 am based on what you've told it in the set up (ie active or couch potato).
  • I'm just east of Toronto.
  • Congrats hun, getting married and planning your wedding is quiet a challenge. I'd really recommend bringing your soon to be husband on board with the new health trend, remember he loves you for you not what you look like. I'm sure your gonna make a beautiful bride and if you need any help with anything feel free to ask me…
  • Just get into something you enjoy doing and keep going I would really recommend classes since I found they are easier to make a routine out of because it isn't something you can just say I'll do later.
  • I would say focus on your food but pick up some cardio with strength (spin classes are great). Don't let yourself get too down just eat healthy and stay active. Its one of the pitfalls of being on a medical supervised diet because once you come off your SOL. Keep a food log and just hit the gym and keep positive about…
  • I notice when i do squats if i pulse my knees back it during them I feel it in my inner thighs.
  • Hi Christie, You should always be happy with you no matter what size you are you can hate ur size but not yourself.

  • I like the rule if you have to ask just do it. Never say no to exercise.
  • I want to congratulate you on quitting smoking, its really amazing and if you can do that you can do anything! But sadly quitting smoking isn't helping with the weigh I'm sure, slowing ur heart rate and making you actually taste food again :-p I'm sure you can do it again. Think about how great it will be when you'll be…
  • First congrats on joining the service. Second I'd recommend getting your armed checked by a professional before being shipped off to OSUT, if you are found to have something during your medical your out, and you will not be given a chance to recover from what ever could be. My husband and his buddies are all told to just…
  • Personally I prefer classes because you can almost feed off the energy in the class which is something you can't get at home.
  • Well I should have said I don't eat a lot of things but I eat horribly. I'm aware of this. I would rather a bowl of chips then a full dinner (more calories less nutrients I know) and I'd fill up on fluids. If i was hungry I'd have a can of pop rather then eat something (again HORRIBLE I know.) I could have 8-12 cans of pop…
  • Well till today I wasn't counting calories but I've never been a big eater but I'm a big drinker (juice and formerly pop). I'm aiming now at about 1400-1500 with at least 100g of protein. I never realized how much sugar was in light cranberry raspberry juice so I've cut that and started to drink more water and cutting my…
