i gotcha girl... 26?

ok, i totally love you ;) I turned 35 last month!

i think i got skipped? am i doing this right? haha

xKrystalX- 22?

Female Age : 35 Height: 5'4 SW: 245 CW: 235 GW: 145 I'd love to be able to race my 9 year old son down the street, play soccer again, feel comfortable in my own skin, be more energetic, and look on the outside how i feel on the inside :-) Feel free to add me, i've been on MFP for about a month now

Pretty in both but there does seem to be a glow coming from the newest one :) great job!

I just got my HRM (the polar F7) last week.. i do the elliptical about 3 times a week for 60 minutes (i usually get a bit sweaty, i change levels and intensity up and down several times during the workout) and it says i burn about 570 calories each time. I also do Zumba 2 times a week and i feel like i'm really killing…

This is why i heart you ;-D

Haha!! I never understood the full makeup and perfectly coiffed hair at the gym... really?! unless you're like me and come straight from work...i have on makeup but rarely is my hair good ;D

I found it on here somewhere?

i found it on here somewhere?

btw i just got a hrm and used it for the first time last night, did zumba for 60 minutes and hrm says i burned 667 calories vs mfp says i burned 1000- that's a HUGE difference

I've been on mfp for a month today and this topic gets asked (and answered a million different ways) often! I'm very confused, i'm given a budget of 1200 calories a day to eat then i usually workout 4-5 days a week and burn At least 500 calories each time... does that mean i'm supposed to eat 1700 a day when i workout and…

Not holding the cat?! This totally cracked me up...thanks for that ;-D PS you are not alone in this "obsession" , i weigh myself, have my bm, weigh again, take my bath/shower, weigh again! I usually see a 1-3 pound loss from the first weigh in to the last!

Totally agree! It's hard to see others consistently lose each week (i did great the first 2 weeks, lost 9 pounds! but haven't lost any since ) and i've been really down about it, but i went out yesterday and bought a heart rate monitor because i felt like the calories burned listed on here weren't very accurate and i was…

I was wondering this same exact thing (i decided to go with the sedentary because of my job, but i workout 4 times or more a week..figured it would be safer to not allow myself more calories) Thanks for asking this :-)

couldn't have said it better myself ;-) thanks for the details, it helps to be informed to meet my goals

I am totally with you on this one!! (except my days start at 5:45!) i don't want to exercise at lunch and get all sweaty for the rest of the work day and working out BEFORE 5:45 am is def NOT gonna happen (not a morning person). And on nights i head to the gym, i feel guilty for taking an hour away from time spent with my…
