PS....my thighs were hurting all night and kept waking me up - and today they are uber tired!

I'll change the setting today - about to head out for a walk to the REI store to buy a new pair of gloves for rowing which round trip will be about 2.5miles. I appreciate you saying that about the LBM but apparently not as the calculators say I am at 34.1%BF so my calorie burn stats will probably drop once I adjust the age…

Congrats!!!! Amazing and gorgeous!!!! How many calories do you eat and what's your workout routine?? I'm around the same stats and am losing so slowly!!!

Hi there. Sent you a PM but maybe better posted here in case other people have the same question... I have the Polar FT60 which did a VO2max index when I first got it. SO...since my HRM has this function, do I still need to go in and change me age from 38 to 54 to account for the change in my BMR due to my BF? Thanks!

39 in July...no kids. Currently single! About 24lbs to lose. Feel free to add me :)

Swimmers! Two (possibly dumb) questions: 1) if you wear a cap, does it keep your hair dry so that chlorine (to avoid dryness)? 2) if you wear goggles, does it keep water out of your contacts (to avoid infection)? THANK YOU!

If you let it thaw for about 30 min - it's creamy enough ;)

In case anyone is wondering, the lowest model Polar that allows you to test your VO2Max and set that setting is the FT60. I'm getting mine on Friday!

I'm curious too. Should be getting my FitBit Ultra and a Polar FT60 on Friday!

This could be breakfast or dessert... Mix 4oz Fage 0% yogurt with 1 scoop 365 Natural Vanilla Whey Powder (mixed together it takes like cream!) 1cup Kashi Go Lean cereal Eat together or separately. 287 calories 41g protein 37g carbs 2g fat 10g fiber

It is SOOOOOOO good :)

Thanks :D

Two weeks into going the higher calorie route and I've lost about 3lbs. What's even more fantastic is that because I get to eat more, I crave less and on Friday when I was feeling down - I managed to NOT BINGE! Prior to this - i was taking 2 steps forward, 1 step back...certainly there will be challenges along the way, but…

You are a SKINNY 14! You look fabulous! Congrats :D

That is a great time -especially for your first mile!!!! Congrats!

Fried egg over 1/2 cup cooked quinoa with a sprinkle of salt. Mix it all up. Heaven! I have fried the egg w butter when I have the calories, but Pam is just as delish. Quinoa accordibg to instructions. So simple, but oh so delicious!!!

Trader Joe's Whey Protein, Natural Vanilla 2 scoops 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa 1 packet Truvia (optional) 5 ice cubes Blend. GREAT TASTING CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKE, 288 calories, 49 grams of protein!

Unsweetened Almond Milk is SO great for protein shakes, french toast, and so much more. It has the creaminess of milk without all the calories. Hardly has any protein BUT I find that I get more bang for my 'calories' with protein in protein powder vs protein in milk :)

I agree. I just added the C25K this week and it is tough. I'm just wondering if I would get better results if I changed something around and did heavier weights.... Plus...I need to see how long my left knee holds up - acts up when running so perhaps substitute weights for C25K... Analysis paralysis. I'm going to keep…

WOW! I really appreciate all the replies!!!! I just started the following schedule: 1) Indo-Row class (featured on Biggest Loser) 6x a week 2) Brazilian Butt Lift Videos (5 different videos 2 of which are cardio, 3 are weights/resistance bands/ankle weights) 6x a week - it varies on what you do each day 3) C25K 3x a week.…

Thanks for the detail! weights over 100#...WOW - I definitely can't lift like that! Are those machines?

I have it. I'm on week 2 of the Lift and Shape Solution. There's a lot of variety and I find it to be a good workout. There are some exercise I definitely can't do. Bum Bum makes me drip with sweat, I can really feel High & Tight working various muscles, just start Sculpt and I'm worn out after, Tummy Tuck is also tough.…

Hey Tanisha, First off, my condolences on your Mom. I hope you are finding peace, and I think it's wonderful that you are channeling things into taking better care of yourself. Our bodies get used to things. I looked briefly at your exercise diary and see that you do a lot of walking - which is GREAT - and some dancing.…

and Blitz...sexy sexy!

Great hair!
