  • I do my workout every morning, first thing, so I have NO excuse later in the day to NOT do it. On my off day, I actually miss my workouts, but I tend to have my "off days" on a weekend cheat day as well. Which means, I can sleep in, have a heavier breakfast than normal... but when I think about it, the way I stager my "fat…
  • Love it! Amazing how a few lbs can add to a face. I suffer from the same thing, I have a naturally rounder face, so any excess weight makes it look rounder. Great job!
  • I actually just recently had my glocose levels checked becuase I had gained 35lbs in a little over a year. I now have to take metformin to regualate the insulin in my blood :( But man, does it help! I don't crave as many sugars as I used to so I am happy about that. The best way to really determined YOUR bodies blood sugar…
  • My protein was always in the negative everyday too... I went into goals and clicked in edit.. then customized the settings to allow more protein and less carbs....since that is more effective for me to lose weight. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

  • Keep it up.. training can make you very sore.. make sure you are eating or having a protein shake after your workouts- carbs are needed to help repair muscle after workouts.. so fuel your body with proper nutrition so you can work through it. If the pain is that bad.. you may want to have it checked out.. it could be more…
  • Morning exersizes are hard at first... but once you have your shoes on and you are ready to go they are great... plus you actually feel more energized during the day... and by time you get home you feel more accomplished because you actually get to have more YOU time. (Or if you anything like me, more time to do the…
  • I love buying rotisserie chickens from my grocer. I cut it up and put it in a ziplock. Buy it on sunday and take it to work for the week. Cut up veggies too. Have you also considered a protein shake for breakfast on the go? Fat free yoplait yogurt? They have awesome Boston Cream pie, Strawberry cheesecake, etc.Honestly...…
  • I would say if you want to indulge in a favorite of yours, that you never have the chance to, do it! whatever that food, meal may be. If not.. I would still eat something.. like nuts or cereal, or a salad. Sometimes if you are used to starving yourself... and then eating till your gorged.. you body may still be in training…
  • I found it helpful to make a list of foods I LOVED! Chocolate, Hummus, Tabouli, Crepes with coolwhip, cereal ,burger king burgers, greek salads and found out what all the fat, cals, protein were in them. The ones that were fairly low I kept.. and I eat them EVERYDAY! Tabouli, Hummus, and the things that were high that I…
  • I also liked taking the hydroxy cut... but here i am 7 years later trying to lose weight again... only this time as a lifestyle... not just a boost for energy or quick results. I would take the long term results over anything. give it time.. if you learn the right foods and work out... you will get the same results! Good…
  • I usually do 6 days a week of cardio/strenght training (switching). Depending on how much I burn I can get any where from 300 to 500 more calories a day (except my day off) other wise I eat around 1300 calories a day (per my BMR which I had tested at my doctors office prior to starting). I was hesitant to eat the extra…

  • Awesome!! Thanks... and good luck to you too! I think if I can get a more accurate read I will lose more weight at well. I have been doing this for over 3 weeks and have only lost 1 lb!! YIKES!

  • I have had that too and thought it was the no sugar and no caffeine but then found I was still having them... I changed my food chart to say Breakfast, AM Snack, Lunch, PM Snack, Dinner- smaller meals more often regualtes my low blood sugar issues.
  • Has anyone tried the new ChaLEAN fitness? I ama huge fan of the Turbo Jam.... but need something new to spice up my workouts.... would love to hear about the program from an insider. Thx

  • This may sound weird.. and I am no way a professional.. but you may need to start taking in more calories... and doing interval training. As you work out longer your body metabolizes food faster... so if you are doing the same routine as 2 months ago.. your body no longer functions the same.. and may have kicked into…
  • Thanks.. I will have to look at it. I am only at 1253 calories for the day and I worked out for 1 hour today.. so I should still have calories technically to eat. :tongue:
  • Hey I hope someone can give me some guidance. Everyday I workout and diligently input all of the food I have eaten for the day. Everyday my 5 week projected weight outlook will go down even if only a few ounces.. but today it went uo 3 lbs for the projected 5 weeks???/ Why is that????? Am I doing something wrong???
  • I have also been told on average it takes women's bodies about 7 weeks to start to kick into high metabolic mode where they finally begin to shed weight.. maybe its a timing thing.
  • I feel for you girl... I did the same thing yesterday. I was on a great streek and then I at half a batch of brownies and a bottle of champagne... BOY! I kept asking myself why was I doing this... and all I could think of is I am so angry, frustrated I need to make myself feel better.. BAD idea... because once I did that I…
