  • When I plugged my numbers in, it gave me 1200 but I had too much trouble sticking to that. I have found that if I eat around 1500 a day and DO NOT eat back my exercise calories, that works best for me!
  • This was SUCH a great idea!!! I have been feeling overwhelmed with info lately....how many calories to eat, to eat exercise calories or not, how often to eat, what to eat, when to exercise, caridio vs toning.....ITS ALL TOO MUCH! It obvious from these photos that YOU FOLKS KNOW HOW TO DO IT!!! I am relatively new here and…
  • That crustless quiche sounds FABULOUS!!!! And I even have some of that Heart Healthy Lowfat Bisquick in the house! THANKS! Any chance its in the food database?
  • I have been thinking about trying this program. I recently started jogging a little. 5 minutes warm up on the treadmill at 3.5 mph and then every time the clock has a 0 or a 5...I jog for 1.5 minutes! Yesterday I did that for 45 minutes...and I can STILL walk today!! Wondering how the C25k work and if its similar to what I…
  • My goal? ONEDERLAND!!!!! It's 12 lbs away and MORE than achieveable....but I keep playing games and just cannot seem to get there!!! I lose...then I gain....I lose...then I gain. I need to lose....AND LOSE...AND LOSE!!!!
  • I make a "Dinners for the Week" sheet that I hang on the fridge. I make that list based on what is on sale that week. My kids are older so they do their own breakfast/lunch thing (2 are away at college, the 24 year old is home)
  • OK ready for this? I went to the gym. It was only 30 minutes (I usually do at least 60!) but I had my daughter with me and she wants to start slow. (NOTE TO SELF....next time TAKE TWO CARS!) Anywyay....I warmed up on the elliptical for 10 minutes...and then I hit the treadmill....where I walked for 3 minutes and then…
  • I LOVE MINE!!! I don't have any trouble syncing it (it does sometimes take a few minutes) and I keep the charger thing connected to my laptop. You don't have to physically put the Fitbit on the charger to have it sync....you just have to be in the area! I only connect it when it needs to be charged. I don't know if the…
  • Hi everyone! So happy to find this 50+ board although I am not sure where I find Part 1 & 2. I am 51 years old, married 25 years, 3 kids, the youngest just headed off to college. I work full time and have been trying to lose weight, well....FOREVER. I have managed to lose and keep off 20 lbs (I lost 25 but gained back 5!)…
  • I would like to join this challenge!! I have a gym membership and try to go 5-6 times a week, but the weight is coming off SLOWLY and I need a little boost! Please let me know what we do to get started!
  • I was 51 in May. I DO find it harder to lose the weight now that I am older...and I also find that I have weight in places I never had it before! I was always bottom heavy, didnt have too much of a stomach. Now I have a tire!! And back fat!! And then there's all the hormonal nonsense! Its now easy...and I still have about…
  • I, too, have done WW various times...tried Jenny Craig...you name it. Right now I am tracking here, on MFP, and I like that better than WW because it tell you WHAT you are eating and what you may be over or under with. For example, I just learned that I was over in my sodium all last week! I also tend to follow Chris…
  • I don't do strength training enough yet so I am not logging it....but I think you SHOULD be able to log it as circuit training for the number of minutes of the video.
  • Well I dont have a heart rate monitor but I do have this FitBit that Janelle and Ida have. I just got mine a few days ago and I LOVE IT!!!
