I just found this thread and had to ask...because I'm even more confused after reading this....should I just follow the suggestions MFP are giving me? My BMR is also higher (1572) than what MFP tells me to consume. WHen I workout I am eating back some but not all of my calories. I too have not lost anything since starting…

I am in :) I have such difficulty on the weekends and now with an extra day this weekend ugh....I'm dreading it

I just ordered a Polar FT7 I can't wait to get in the mail!!!

I ended up buying the Polar FT7F from walmart online. They had is priced well. I will check things out when it arrives but could find no difference between the FT7 and FT7F exept the FT7F is the female version of the FT7. It should come in the mail today or tomorrow so I'll let you know what I think of it.

Chalean Extreme is a program offered by Beachbody. you can google it and read more about it. I will be joining you over on that board. Thx :)

What is the difference between the FT7 and FT7F? I am assuming the FT7f is the female version?

do you all feel that it reads calories burned accurately. I've been looking into the Polar HRM's but I'm not sure I want to spend that kind of money on one....think I might look into this one.

Thank you all for your advice. I'm looking into the F6 but I'll let you know for sure what I end up getting......so many choices :)

I'm going to post my stats later today....I will take pics too but I won't post those till the end

What do you guys think about a 30DS/Chalean Extreme Hybrid? Have any of you had any experience with Chalean Extreme? Its a great program but its mainly a strenght training program, so I wasn't sure if this would be ok to do along with 30DS because of the weight training Jillian does in her videos. I think I will be adding…

are any of you adding extra cardio to your program? I'm thinking about starting the 30ds but I think I'm going to add extra cardio to it as well. Also I think I'm only going to do the 30ds every other day. I've done this video before, made it to level 2 and quit lol....I'm going to stick to it this time.

my hubby won't let me get it :( He thinks its going to be like another program I bought and never completed...I'm bummed but I guess I'll just have to show him I can stick with it on other things :)

another question did you get your programs from Beachbody? I'm seeing a set on another site for $45

Thank you both for responding I appreciate your input :)

My Hubby will not let me spend that much money on a program....does anyone know how or where I can order it for cheaper? I have CLX but need TF.

I've been a member of sparkpeople for years, this is how I lost my first 20 pounds but it is like some people mentioned very busy. What I like about the site is that you can join groups that have a specific interest such at the C25K program and the Chalean Extreme Group etc. You can also look at people's sparkpages which I…

My best friend recently died of leukemia, the doctors beleive that her dieting habits lead to her diagnosis. She was one of those people that ate all the 100 cal packs of things and would restrict her food intake to below 1200 calories but would workout excessively. She began getting back pains and was later found to have…

Another thing I've noticed is that now that I'm drinking lots more water, I have to use the restroom about every 20 minutes or so. Is that normal?

Wow thank you all for your replies. I didn't expect to hear from you all so soon, that is so helpful. I did notice that the calories burned it calculates for me seems a little high. I will aim to eat about half of my calories back. I do tend to get a little obesessed with the number on the scale. I've been meaning to take…
