not a good exercise to eat beforehand and then do...hence the name :/ do they get easier? yeah...do you learn to like them? probably not. as a fitness professional, i don't like doing them BUT they are a GREAT all-over exercise!

as long as it doesn't have caffeine in it, it counts :0)

AMAZING!!!! you look wonderful and happiness and confidence just radiate! keep it up :0)

you just have to LET IT GO! and get back on it RIGHT NOW with your next meal. DONT LOOK BACK JSUT KEEP MOVIN' AHEAD!

you look FABULOUS! and i love TRX workouts! great job! keep it up girl :0)

real bacon...turkey bacon is loaded w way more salt!

actually from home tab choose goals>change goals> customize> then you can reset your food ratios

you need to change the setttings on your food....mfp sets protein at 15%. good ratio especial if you are trying to reduce body fat and contorl cravings is 40% carb, 30% protein, 30%fat. from home tab go to goals> customize> and reset your food ratio % :)

i have been using recently silk light vanilla soy...replaced my creamer in my coffee...enjoy it :0)

AMAZING! great job!

I usually weigh everything

singapore noodles out of the new issue of clean eating :0)

the trainer is called RIP 60 comes with a set of dvds ( a new one each week), door hanger, diet plan (which i didn't follow). i bought it on hsn.com, it was $119...looked on amazon, some sellers had it for $99. i injured my shoulder in february and needed a way to continue training without provoking my injury. worked out…

i have worked for many, many years in the fitness industry and the one thing i have found with yoyo dieters is they have a strong emotional connection in their relationship to food. a question you may want to ask yourself and explore is, "why am i eating right now?" look back at times in your life when you weren't dieting,…

i am a trainer and i would have fired that trianer :( the unfortunate fact of the industry is that ANYONE can get certified and be a trainer...doesn't mean they know what they are doing....good for you! i'm sure you will find what you need to motivate you and get you to your goal! best wishes to you on your journey :)

soulnds like plantar fascitis...make sure you stretch your calves/ achiles after working out. great stretch in the a.m. is can roll. keep a 16oz can of fruit or veggies under your bed and before you get out of bed, sit at the edge and roll the can back and forth over the arch of each foot several times to loosen your feet.…

go into your goals and adjusting your food ratios to 40% carb/30% protein/30% fat. protien while trying to lose weight is helpful to reduce sugar cravings and to build & maintain muscle mass. our brain and body does need carbs to function properly. they need to be healthy carbs- fruits, veggies, and whole grains. these…

i normally have my coffee & usually a slice of whole wheat toast w a bit of peanut butter.

im a girl and i sing in the choir at church =)

i shop aldi us and you have to be very careful...read the labels. i mostly buy fruit , veggies, milk, eggs, canned beans, frozen veggies, cheese...not too much of the packaged foods because they add lots of fillers, like: sugar, high fructose corn syrup, potato starch, msg, malodextrin, etc....in stuff you wouldn't…

i have had both models and the only difference is the amount of memory it holds for workouts....the ft7 holds 100, the ft4 only 10. as far as functions- time, hr, cals burned, zone- they are the same. i just replaced my ft7 w my second ft4...you can save yourself the extra $$$. you can replace the batteries and buy the…

you have a couple things going on here... >knees going inward ...you need to train your quads and stretch them like crazy. this is a very common issue with women. the angle of our femur into the knee joint is larger due to our hips. if your quads or i.t. band are tight, you will rotate inward...more so too if you have high…

You look WONDERFUL! Great job on your dilligence =)

depending on your eating and exercise habits prior to january, you may have done enough work in a month to recharge your metabolism. inactivity and poor eating will suppress it and changes in diet will "stoke the fire" so to speak :0) here's the deal...take advantage of it NOW and get back on track TODAY! you've lost…

your brain and your body NEEDS carbs to function properly...if you want to moderate your carb intake to lean down, switch your food ratios to 40% carb, 30% protein, 30% fat, or what is called "the zone". i recommend this combination to most of my female clients who are trying to lose weight and fat. it will help stabilize…

i usually zone 40c/30f/30pro it works best for me when i am trying to lose and lean out. i recently changed mine to 45c/30f/25p, i am on a rest & recovery phase right now. i always try to hit my protein and fiber goal then i look at the rest....i try not to go over on my carbs, but that occasionally happens. and i try to…

i have dealt with that in the past...some stratgies that have worked for me and i have passed onto my clients: make sure you are eating regularly during the day...there is nothing worse than to come home from a stressful day FAMISHED and start eating your way through to bedtime to make yourself feel better. take some time…
