Hell yes!! Enjoy :)

MFP has me set at 1200 and I try and use a P90X estimate calculator that told me how many calories I should burn during the different workout tapes, so I was eating those calories back. But, today for instance, it is only around 1450 calories total that I would eat. I just ordered a HRM with calorie counter to see if that…

I want to lose 10 lbs and tone up. Just started P90X on Monday (Lean program). I was doing different Jillian Michael's tapes about 6 times a week and some cardio on my treadmill, so now doing P90X to see if that helps. I am set to lose 0.7 lbs a week on MFP and set at 1200 cals per day. I have lost nothing yet and just…

Baby wipes to wipe you down! I used to use them when I would ride into work. Not sure about the suit....

I think when you add new foods/meals, you can make them public. There is an option to click that will share with all of MFP. Then you can give it a unique name so your friend and hubby know what to look for when adding the recipe.

I just started the Lean program on Monday, so this will be day 3 for me!! I am very sore and feel every muscle in my abs! They are tough workouts, but don't give up!!

Thanks. I am doing P90X right now and wanted to try and figure out my calorie burn.

My hubby and I started taking turns on putting our 2 boys to bed. One of us will start working out at 7 pm and then the other will go and workout (in our basement or bedroom) at 8 pm. Our boys are usually in bed by 8, but if they aren't, the one who worked out starting at 7 will finish with getting them in bed. This has…

AMAZING! Congrats!

My latest breakfast craze for me has been1 egg white and 1 egg scrambled then add a wedge of laughing cow cheese on top. Delicious. It might not hold you over until lunch, so add a banana or apple. I have to eat a snack in between breakfast and lunch b/c of blood sugar issues.

I did one in PA last year and was out of shape. I didn't do too bad though and it was very hard, but very fun!! I also did another mud run in Sept with some girlfriends and we all wore dresses. I am signing up for another one here in June....they are addicting!! They push your body, but are FUN! The other runners are great…

My husband and I take turns putting our boys to bed. Our boys watch sesame street, starting at 7pm. That is when one of us goes to workout. Then when we are done, the other person can workout and stay on alert for either of the boys getting up out of bed. They are usually in bed by 7:30 b/c we get them up early to go to…

They are hard for me as well. I have a 3.5 yr old and 18 month old. So, I try and spend as much time with them and our normal household chores and try and make/prep meals for the upcoming week!! My hubby and I try and workout on the weekends, but don't always do that and aren't as strict with our diets. We do try and eat…

Some of these look like recipes I get from Spark People. Check out their site for healthy recipes and nutritional info. They are delicious!!

I believe the course was designed for military use or similar to what some of our military go through during training. There are very high climbing walls, might have to carry logs, etc. It is tough, hence the name :) A lot of people don' t finish. It is supposed to be more of a teamwork type drill b/c some obstacles might…

Do you have the "schedule" that women are supposed to follow for the Lean program? I can't find my list.

I have not done the tough mudder, but shorter (5K) obstacle courses and she should be training!! They are hard and intense.....and FUN!!! I didn't train for my first one and I did ok, but it killed me. I trained a little for my second one and did much better. The Tough Mudder has a lot harder obstacles then your normal…

1/4 cup of almonds (150 cals), 30 pistachios (100 cals), cheese sticks (60 cals), 100 calorie snack mixes/packs found in your snack aisle.

I have it at my desk and used it once yesterday. Not sure if it was the drink that helped or just the fact that I liked the taste and drank pretty fast and that woke me up!

I started this diet, but had a lot of issues with how it affected my blood sugar. I was following it religiously, but ended up getting sick from my blood sugar dropping so low and becoming very weak. My husband had a hard time with it as well and felt very weak by the 4th day. It does have a lot of valuable information and…
