I do not typically measure it but I have a generally good idea about how hard I am pushing myself. My resting heart rate is 58-63 bpm (if you're curious as to why that is I use to competitively swim so my cardiovascular system became pretty efficient). When I do hiit I try not to pay attention to it, however I do notice I…

Well! In order to properly give advice, is it ok if we ask for a little more information? If you're eating 1200 calories, thats all fine and dandy IF that is above your Basic Metabolic Rate. If you are not meeting that Basic Metabolic Rate ( use the BMR calculator under the tools tab to find out if you don't know) you…

Well, welcome to myfitnesspal and congratulations on taking the plunge! This is a great way to start. Firstly, start out by doing things you know you can stick to. My method was telling myself I was going to make one decision better today than I did the day prior. Secondly, figure out what your basic metabolic rate is,…

Well first of all, this journey is a life time change, and from my observations it looks like you have just recently took the plunge! But you have come to the right place! First of all, use the BMR tool to calculate your basic metabolic rate. You need to be above that in order to lose most effectively, and by looking at…

My initial goal was 155, but now that I'm 159, I am really re-analyzing that goal, I'm not the size I want to be at yet, and to be honest, the changes I made were easier than I had originally anticipated. Also, I have received compliments that I look healthy and well - which is most important to me. Last time I tried to…

HIIT Interval training is great for you, and for a lot of information on it, check out bodyrock.tv - its the first result in google search. However, their older work outs ( Prior to Nov 2011) are the most informative I think. Recently, they switched hosts, and the new hosts is on information over load. Their old host, is…

I don't know if I'm pushing it but Im 5'8 and at my last weigh in I was 173.5. The largest I ever been was at the beginning of this past summer at around 185. I haven't been doing as well as I would like, and I know this is my own fault. Next week classes start back up and I have my work out scheduled plan. I personally…

I say go for it - you can also follow along with BodyRock.TV. The great thing is they only take 20 minutes maximum! Here is a link http://www.bodyrock.tv/category/daily-workouts/fitness-tips/ this way you can do this at home, take yoga classes, and have the bike - you'll be a bodyrocker in no time!

Definitely Ready!! This weekend is well deserved because ever since fall break it has been non-stop madness with the school work. Well I finally have gotten all caught up, and I am ready to mini-celebrate (with out going over board of course) !!!
-
Just got done with work - I might do some yoga instead of hard core working out ! Im a chiropractic assistant and we are highly understaffed so by the end of the day I am exhausted from cleaning, helping patients, putting therapies on, and playing with charts!

I have been doing the 30 day shred by jillian michaels - oh my goodness its tough! I didn't know what to log it as so I said " cardio" and before I mentioned it as elliptical - whats your favorite program?

Im in!

1. Drink 8 glasses of water a day 2. Work out a minimum of 3 days this week! 3. No late night snacking
-
It all depends- I use to be a swimmer and the objective of many of our work outs were to push our heart rate to the maximum. Just monitor it, and if you feel like you can't go harder or further, just do the best you can. If you have severe chest pain, then stop and call your doctor immediately. Like I said it all depends,…

:) Just about to have some dinner and then done for the day except for water and a cup of hot cocoa while I study watching Hocus Pocus! LNS: 2 Me: ??

Thank you, I am too!

Also, an idea for the "no-sweet" challenge. What about a "swap a sweet" challenge. Every time you find yourself craving say some left over halloween candy, instead of that oh so delicious king size candy bar, what about apple slices with some nutella? Still get the sweet but not as unhealthy?
-
I have good news and bad news, I got very ill last week therefore I did not take the few minutes to log what I had eaten or worked out. However, I do have good news, since I was so sick I am still going strong with my late night snacking. I am not sure the last day I posted was, however I know I have not eaten any late…

Just finishing up my drink from dinner and then its done for the night! Today was a great day for me, I made wiser choices, I logged every little morsel in my mouth, and I did treat myself, I burned 360 calories at the gym today, and I have 324 calories for the day remaining! I feel great! ME: 2 LNS: 0

This is great because I was just thinking this earlier! Over the past few weeks I have been observing my weak spots and attempting to become more aware of what small changes I could make to improve, and this is one of them. However it extends to more than just late night snacking, it extends to dinner. I do really well up…
