I use Kraft Calorie Wise Italian 5 calories for 1tbsp.

Polar FT4. It is my 2nd polar and I love it. I was able to find my current one on ebay for $49.99 with free shipping and it was brand new in the box. Make sure whatever you get has the chest strap with it.

1560 for me. My goal is to lose .5lbs a week since i only have 8lbs to lose :)

I had the longest hottest bath last night with some epsom salt and it seemed to help quite a bit...right before bed so I slept much better too.

Level 1 Day 4 -- Completed! I trudged through it! I still can't do great modified pushups. I still hate the first round of cardio (jumping jacks/skipping) but happy to say I did it and I am better for it. Almost half way through level 1 YAY!! :flowerforyou:

I am sick :sad: However I still plan on shredding soon. I have to do this! Every single day! Just getting ready to put my little one down then off to shred I go :laugh:

Not sure if you missed the point but did YOU tell your trainer that MFP already factors in a deficit? On most sites that deficit is not there so ya 1200 is 1200 here on MFP 1200 is the lowest calorie intake and aleady has a 500 calorie deficit built in so if you eat 1200 and burn 500 you are creating a bigger deficit of…

I also wanted to add...TAKE PICTURES! I only have 1 and now wish I had more to compare. I hated having my picture taken but now love to see the side by side. Take a bunch and that way when you lose the weight you can do the before and after and post here of course :wink:

Congrats! You can TOTALLY do this! You have come to the right place. I find when I am down and looking for food I come on here and read the success stories, they have gotten me through a lot. I may not have had as much to lose but I have lost the same weight several times. I have up days and down days but this site is…

I got my Polar FT4 from ebay for $49.99 and it was brand new still in the box.

It's hard....well not so much for me getting to 1200 but when I started here I was doing 1200 calories and recently upped it to 1560..OMG I had no idea how hard it would be..lol. I don't have much left to lose and MFP hasn't failed me yet so I figured I would do as suggested and that was BEFORE exercise! I just started the…

You aren't eating enough. You should be netting 1200 calories a day and from what I can see you are at time only 600 - 900 calories. You need to eat more so that you don't go into starvation mode. Maybe once you get up on your calories a bit you will start to lose more weight and eventually it has no choice but to leave…

I use splenda daily in my coffee/tea and all my water I drink has an iced tea single added which is sweetened with sucralose. It seems like every time you turn around something is horrible and to be avoided. I cannot cut out everything because then what is the point. I'll stick with splenda!

Take a break. You are young and have your life to live. If he is the one then once you have lived a little you will find eachother again. My husband and I met in high school we lost touch for 10 years both got engaged to other people yet never went through with it. 10 years later we reconnected and got married the…

I have graves disease as well. I was diagnosed in 2003. I was 120lbs and gained about 10lbs when I went on the meds BUT I was skinny my whole life (probably due to my thyroid) so exercise and diet were never something I did. I was scheduled for the RAI but could not go through with it. I had my daughter is 2004 and went…

Thanks I usually have some peanut butter toast before I workout...it is my go to snack. I will have to try with apples though since I am not big on eating so much bread.

I try to focus more on what she is saying then what I am doing. Like if it gets hard I concentrate on her talking and try to forget what I am doing..lol. I can't even imagine what the other 2 levels are like but if I see results it will totally be worth it!

Level 1 Day 3 -- Complete! I was a little worried today..lol. My legs were pretty sore today, it hurt to stand up and sit down right in the front of my thighs however I pushed through and for right now they actually feel better. Happy I did it but happier it is over :wink:

I just got it the other day. Today is day 3 of level one. I read a lot before starting it and was worried..lol. I heard people say they could not move and were close to throwing up after the first day. I made it through the first day and can't do the modified pushups too well and begin to hate jumping jack/skipping a…

I took a ton of measurements and pics too just to see. I always notice things when I see it in pictures. lol...of course you can use my slogan..I am sure it isn't actually mine anyway but would be cool if it was :happy:

marking this as I am on Day 3 so interested to see other's results.

Taio Cruz...Dynamite or anything of his gets me moving!

Yup still water. I drink my water with the nestea iced tea singles and they are sweetened with sucrlose but that is how I get my water. I use to be a diet pepsi addict but figure the singles are much better and as a previous poster said if it wasn't this it would be much worse.

April 2nd - 138lbs April 9th - 138lbs...lol..when I weighed in this week I got down to 137 but went back up in the last few days. Not exactly sure why but happy to not have gained at all. I also started the 30 day shred! Today is day 3 and I am starting to really feel in my legs.

Level 1 Day 2 -- Complete I actually did MUCH better today....The workout seemed to go a lot quicker, I burned more calories and feel great. My legs were a little sore today and I noticed it when going up stairs or after sitting for long periods of time. NOTHING I can't handle....yet. I was so scared I would be unable to…

Level 1 Day 1 DONE! I was expecting way worse..lol. I had trouble with the push ups and there were a tad too many jumping jacks but happy to have burned 200 calories. Maybe after some sleep it will hit me but so far so good. I had a bit of weakness in my legs during the lunges with the weights.

I weigh daily. I like it and for me it works. Others let the numbers discourage them but for me it totally motivates me. I only "officially weigh in once a week but I do weigh daily...many times daily some days :laugh:

Yes. At the end of the day when you look at your home page your GOAL and Your NET should match or be very close to :flowerforyou:

Ok I am ready!! DVD --- Check 3lb weights ---- Check Mat -- Check Going to get my hair done at the salon after work so I should be feeling pretty good tonight :flowerforyou: i will report back if I make it back up the stairs when I am done:laugh:

I thought I read Jillian is only using 5lbs and she is PRO! i was thinking of 2lbs even....lol.
