Its more stuff I can't be trusted with because I eat too much...chocolate; homemade mac and cheese, almond butter...I call these my trigger foods

Squat 135 lbs Deadlift 185 lbs Row - 90 lbs Bench Press - 85 lbs I am loving seeing all of these numbers

Check out the EM2WL (Eat more to weight less) board. There is a ton of helpful information there.

so interesting I tried this today...I put in a workout labeled Weights the one I logged gave me no steps and 328 cals...the one that my fit bit logged said 1332 steps and 237 cals....I didn't expect the one on the fitbit to be lower...does that make sense?

ok, going to try it out for a week and see what happens.

so this is good information...so How do I get my fitbit to not count my lifting in order for me to log it manually? So with what you are saying, is the 3300 calories it tells me I am burning a day inflated because I have been wearing my fitbit while lifting?

heybales - wouldn't my weightlifting be logged by my fitbit with HR monitor?

heybales - In the past 4 months I bounced around within an 8 lb window but never really lost any weight. My logging was good, but not great. I have really tightened that up. I really only started working out about a month ago, so my activity level has changed. I just get my calorie burns from my fitbit. The only workout I…

kitten - yes the scooby calculator was where I got my numbers from

When you talk about a 12 week reset does that include time only at TDEE or does that include time getting to TDEE? for example if you slowly raise your calories, and it takes 6 weeks to get to TDEE, do those 6 weeks count as part of the 12?

Julie - congrats on the new low Green - way to get started, remember everyone in the gym had a day one Got my lifting workout in today. Stage 1 workout B. Went up on all weights so that is good. Lat pull downs at 75 lbs are kicking my butt My deadlift at 30 lbs isn't too heavy but I am having a lot of trouble with the form…

thanks for all the solid answers. I appreciate it

Hey everyone, let me introduct myself. I am a 35 year old mom of 2, with a desk job and about 140lbs to lose. I started the program 3 weeks ago. Am currently figuring out where to put my calories. I did workout A yesterday current weights below Squats - bar + 20 pushups - 60 degree angle (10 each time) - This is huge for…

Thanks guys, time to try some experimenting with different numbers. Julie - when you started , what calorie level were you at?

if by testing you mean trying it out...I have not. If you mean something else, let me know. I forgot to add my weight...I am 285 lbs, about 130-140 overweight. When you say go up slowly..how much would you add a week?

Friend me if you would like...about 140 to lose...doing it with solid nutritional choices adn lifestyle change.

Full TDEE is 2798...seems really high to me

been here awhile...just started to lift and loving it...add me

I am above the weight you mentioned and have "lost weight" during both of my pregnancies which resulted in two healthy full term babies that were 8lbs and above. For me my metabolism actually kicks in, I can eat normal and lose about 10-15 lbs in the first trimester. Stay about the same or up a few in the second tri and…

Hi guys, I just found you. Mind if I join in?? I am a married mom of two, work full time and have 100+ pounds to lose. I am 5'6" tall.

OMG I loved that game. If you find it somewhere let me know.

I hear you on this, I love and hate the success stories at the same time. Sometimes they really motivate me and other times really depress me. I can't make anything move in the right direction and I am horribly scared about the next 6 weeks...ugh.

I am in...add me. 280 and can't take it anymore....it must change.

Female 34 5'6" 280 Anyone?

This is what I was thinking but said soo much better

Working on my weight loss with plantar fasciitis as well. Add me as a friend if you would like. Get a brace to wear at night, it is the thing that helped me the most and stretch, stretch and then stretch again. If you don't like tennis shoes find a pair of shoes that are comfortable and you do like. I ahve a pair of…

Do you know the calories and serving size for this?

Mine do it too and I have always thought it was blood pooling in my hands. If you hold them up by your shoulders when swinging your arms, or clench and unclench your fist, it will help.

Keep one size up...get rid of two sizes up.

Keep up the hard work, wear what makes you happy and enjoy the vacation. Stop stressing over it, it really isn't that important. Your health and happiness are way more important.
