Yes! I am 1 month in, had a few of the side-effects (dry mouth, restlessness at night - but then I never was a good sleeper, more focus and energy, and 90% of the time, I have to remind myself to eat) and in that time I've lost 6lbs. Not a lot, huh? Well, let me tell you a little something about myself... I'm 35, 5'8", SW…

Very Inspirational! It's great how you're seeing such noticable results. Can you talk a little about what you're doing that's working well?

Unles you're cooking it yourself, it's a processed meat... sorry to break it to you. There's ALL sorts of chemicals (nitrates, flavors, other preservatives) in deli meat. Best bet is to bake your own turkey breast on Sunday night and slice it up for the week. It's life, and it's our decisions, and we must own them. I made…

SO beautiful!!! What kind of dog? I must admit that this thread has made my Friday. My family used to breed labs and outside of that we've always had a motley assortment of dogs and cats. Since I moved in with my BF and we can't have pets (he's allergic) my fuzzies had to find new homes. Luckily, Sassafras, my miniature,…

Tameko2 - awesome summary! irridia - that is some great trouble shooting (4/17 post), thanks! I just finished week 2 today, and have to share with those of you who haven't started yet (and don't know 1st hand) the thrill of this! This workout is FUN. You feel strong, you feel capable. One thing to remember - you CANNOT…

MFP helps you figure out what your body needs to maintain current weight and exercise level, then helps you set a reasonable goal. 3500 calories(more or less) = 1lb (gain or loss) 3500/7 days = 500 calories per day deficit (for a loss - achieved either through managing intake or increasing output/burning) This would be if…

My goal overall is 1lb/week... so while I'd love to say that I can make 20 by the end of August, I'm going to set a realistic stretch goal of 15. This challenge is perfect timing as I'm recovering from a post-training binge and need to get back on track! Good luck to all!

I commend you on your high protein goals! Although it's a bit concerning when you say that you can only have meat once a day... you may want to take a look at the quality of your protein. I eat 6 meals a day, and i have protein with each one of them! Sometimes we need to give up the super tasty ones (beef, bacon, sausages)…

I have been wearing the Fit Advantage (with the watch-like display) since January and I love it. There are some pros and cons of it, so I'll try to answer your questions. First few day weirdness - you may get a little bit, but try to wear the armband as much as possible (including when you sleep.) This will start the…

One of the things you will have to watch is that the base MFP nutrition profile is set up for your calories to be 55% Carbs, 15% Protein, 30% Fat. For most people, it's just not enough protein! This calculator ( http://www.freedieting.com/tools/nutrient_calculator.htm ) gives you some often-used distributions, or you can…

Yikes! 56% for me... I wonder if the holidays help or hinder????
