Go to the beachbody web site and download the free excel spread sheets. You customize them with all your personal info..they have everything, all the workouts, spread sheets and nutritional info.

I belong to a gym but I really like fitness videos for the structure. P90x is great and you can do it with just one workout band or a couple pair of dumbbells. Really any of the beachbody videos are good.

I had to test it out for myself. One of my mfp friends logs really high calorie burns "walking thier dog". I got out my heart rate monitor and walked my dog and after a mile I was not burning anything near what my mfp friend was burning so I started to run, I still could not get the same burn they did. Turns out I would…

This seems silly..it does not matter if you have exact accuracy. As long as your heart rate monitor is consistant then you can monitor your progress. You need to know that if you workout in your "zone" ( predetermined intensity) for a certain amount of time and eat a certain amount of calories if it works. Who cares if the…

5'2" and 130 pounds is healthy. Since you are already in your ideal weight range maybe focusing on fitness and proper nutrition will get you the results you want. If you are not fueling your body properly you might hold on to that weight. Try working on eating clean (tosca reno's eating clean recharged book might help) and…

I lost 40 pounds before joining mfp. and was also a size 18. I was not able to transform my shape until I started lifting weights and then it still took a good 6 months of continuous work to see a difference.

You could cook the ones that are on the verge of going bad and then freeze them. Then you can store them for up to a month in the freezer.

When you focus on proper nutrion you can actually eat more of the "right types" of foods. If you are fueling your body timely with good foods you should not be hungry. If you are just eating less crap you are going to be hungry!

What got me obese was my habit of over eating. The difference now is that when I over eat I quickly get back on plan. As far as foods go I dont do the same thing 100% of the time. There are times where I am hyper focused and eat what some people would consider "extreme", times that I am more relaxed and sometimes that all…

If you have candy to eat... put it away!!! When your daughter leaves today have her take it with her. Everyone gets depressed sometimes, but depression can be serious. It sounds like you really have strong feelings about the arrangement with your daughter. Dont let yourself think that you are alone in those feelings. Make…

NO FAIR!!!! I just can not lose 2 pounds in one week. I am allowed 1200 calories per day and if I stick to that I will lose .7 pounds per week. I wear a polar heart monitor and will burn between 200-350 calories per workout doing P90x. Trust me I "bring it". I have tried to increase my workouts to two a day doing P90x and…

Oh yeah can I relate. My husband does not care what he eats. He jokes that he likes his fried food double dunked with a side of dipping grease. Each night he eats as much as three people and then an entire bag of cookies. When I started to diet he really complained about the food that I kept in the house and where I was…

Hello, Weight fluctuates, it might be a good idea to pick a healthy weight range to give yourself some wiggle room to go up and down. If you are trying to lose body fat you should get a device that measures body fat like a scale that includes body fat percentage or use a tape measure or even more accurate a caliper. I also…

I do the same thing... I am considering adding some casein protein before I go to bed. It is supposed to keep you fueled longer. Good Luck!!

No doubt P90X is a tough workout. When I bought it, I was not sure I could do it. I was just finishing slim in 6 and wanted to keep going. What I found out after I bought P90X is that you can modify almost every move. It combines 3 days of weight lifting and 2 days of cardio and a day of yoga. The program is always…

I have been doing P90X for the last 29 weeks!! I have a few but this is my favorite!!

I need some help too.

I was really lost too...I bought some DVD's. My favorite has been P90X. I put off buying it for a long time because it cost $150.00 and I did not think I could do it. But once I got started there was no turning back!! I do not sell beachbody products like P90X, but if you want to know more about the workouts, I can share…
