Feeling like a loser! Bueller.......Bueller.......

I usually do it every morning, M-F in the locker room at the gym after my workout. I just use it for trending. I will usually only count one a week as official. I have to be a little obseeded becasue my weight/bodyfat can impact if I keep my job.

I did not read all of the replies, but from the first page you can get the idea that you can eat anytime. I used to lift heavy and follow bodybuilding heavily. Those guys get down to single digit bodyfat, and eat atound the clock. Becasue they have sooooo much muscle their BMR is through the roof, so they wake up in the…

Isnt the one Trolling here the same person who spent an enire thread talking about how she would never do Burpee's becasue they look silly? I think crossfit would be awwesome, but I had elbow surgery and have a prothetic piece in my forarm which limits how much I can lift, push, etc. I cant do pull ups, push ups, dips,…

It is pricey, but I think it is worth it because, it is the best of both worlds. It only gets up to about 4 mph, but I can not run so that is fine, and so far the fastest I have been able to do is about 3.3. I got it and I saved money abd space over get both. I get a GREAT calorie burn in a shorter period of time than an…

Are you doing the palms facing you grip or pals away. The version you are doing will impact the main muscle groups being used and determine the best way to improve. I ussed to do the palms away "pull-up" as opposed to the palms towards "chin up". I was up to doing over ten, but an elbow injury has taken them out of the…

Bowflex treadclimber. Best of both worlds and burns more calories in less time!

Met my wife on POF

Make sure all information is input to the HRM. That can effect the calculations.

For me it depends on the exercise. Some times MFP is higher, some times it is lower. I just go with HRM. My rate of losing has increased since I started using the HRM.

Too Funny!

Greek yogurt and water help keep me full.

My question is how do you know the milk only comes from white cows? IS milk from brown, black or spotted cows different? Does it look or taste different? Just wonderin'! :wink:

I think that was sarcasam!

2 Great bodyweight exercises: 1. Eight count Body builder. (starting position is standing up) Count 1 Squat Count 2 Thrust feet out to a push up position Count 3 lower body Count 4 Push back up Count 5 Lower Body Count 6 Push back up Count 7 Pull feet forward to Squat position again Count 8 Stand up This is oftern done as…

If I eat three fries off daughters plate, I dont log that. The creamer in my coffee, nope. If I was not makeing the progress that I am, I would buckle down more, but it is not impacting my progress.

Go for the combo. Get the Bowflex treadclimber. We bought one in August and I LOVE it. It kicks my butt. When we first got it I was doing an hour on an elliptical with the resistance at 12. I could only do about 20 minutes on the tradclimber and was drenched in sweat. Now that I have a HRM I can see that I am burning more…

I have heard that some who lose a lot of weight are actually shorter becasue there was actually boby on thier head and feet. There was an actor who lost close to 300lbs I think and he said he was 2 inches shorter.

We should get all the NOVA folks together. I know a great all you can eat Chinese buffet! LOL

I find that the HRM says I burned more on some exercises and less on others that the machine or MFP. So I think it is a pretty accurate number. I feel like I have been losing more consistantly since I got my HRM then I was before I got it. (Only had about 1 1/2 months.) Just my $.02

NOVA- Live Warrenton, work Arlington. Nice commute!

Black boxeers with yellow trim and Batman emblem right up front!

Wife and I are considering Baltimore.

I have not watched much of a game, but it does not seem too bad. Here is my thought: What about womens beach volleyball, which is an olympic sport. Have you seem what they wear? Why cant they wear shorts and a tank top like the indoor players. I think their uniforms might be more revealing than the LFL. Every other thing…

I recently heard "when tortured, numbers can be made to say anything." Similar to: "There are lies, damn lies, and statistics."

As soon as I am done exercising. That way the calories are probably under so I build in a little cushion!!

We used them from time to time in my group workout. I dont know if they are the bees knees, but I like them. I like the fact that with the different exercises you can get a full body workout. If you are going to purchase some, you should consider seeing if a gym nearby offers a class or make sure you follow the…

Thanks for all the input. It has no calories and less than one gram of carbs. I am not worried about sodium. I add salt to nothing and dont eat much that has a whole lot of sodium. I was listing it as a snack and quit. I am trying not to get to anal retentive about logging stuff becasue that will drive me crazy. I dont log…

Wegmans plain and Blue berry and Oikos rapberry. This has been a staple of my diet for about 2 months now. I will eat 3-4 a day on average.

I eat then log. But M-F my Breakfast lunch and snacks are about the same. Dinner is the variable. I do my workouts first thing in the morning so I know how many total calories I have for the day and that will impact dinner choices. There are some days when I know I am eating out for dinner. (my daughter has therapy every…
