She said NO EXERCISE until I get the MRI of my neck back. My vertebrae appear to be stacked on top of each other, little to no disk space, in the x-ray. I asked her about just yoga & low impact but she said none.

I love it. It's worth the money. It's not a fad diet, it's not a protein powder, it's actually a truly healthy thing you can do for your body. Why not just eat healthy? I do but the veggies & fruits of today have less than 1/2 the nutrients they did 20 yrs ago. Our soil is over-farmed & the nutrients just aren't there…

30lbs is awesome!! You are incredible! Don't you ever forget that!

I found this article. It does indicate hair loss. Read this: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-protein-deficiency.htm

Tara... I'm so sorry to hear about your health. Do they have a diagnosis yet? Our bodies do need protein. This lack of protein could be causing your hair loss as well as many other symptoms. Is this the same with liquid proteins? Nutritional shakes, etc..???

I do. Not sure why. I get on the scale, flip it off, & then I go hunt for something salty &/or chocolatey... LOL ;)

I'm a coach for beach body. I became a coach because the programs work! 62 lbs gone & it all started with Turbo Jam! I've also tried p90x, turbo fire, hip hop abs, 10min trainers, insanity... Some programs, like insanity, you feel like you can't do if you aren't in great shape but it actually gets you into great shape…

Esther, Why did you throw me away? I was only 35% broken...

35lbs lost with Turbo Jam! Glad you love it Lori! :)

Welcome to MFP! You will find awesome tools & awesomer (yeah, that's a word now) people to motivate & support your fitness journey! :bigsmile:

There are some good HRM that are only around $30-$40 that I know of. i'd be happy to help you find one. I recently bought a really good HRM & found that on several exercises on here I was burning way more calories than MFP said, but on a few, like yoga, I was burning way less. All the time I was not losing weight was due…

Tea is a diuretic & will remove water from your body. You should try to drink at least 4 glasses of regular water a day without any additives to ensure your are getting enough. I don't count anything as water but pure water. The water in your area is probably high mineral content causing the flavor you don't like. Try…

YES they do store fat cells. When you are over-toxic you can gain fat cells just as well as over-eating. Over-eating causes excess of nutrient & waste that the body doesn't need/can't process and this is stored in the fat cells as well as day to day toxins. So, when you start to lose weight you start releasing toxins. Your…

You will! Just take it easy & don't push so hard that you injure yourself & take yourself back to square one!! The yoga will really help your flexibility! Yes you can do this & you so should! Life changing!

If you are doing all of the moves, even the blocks with intensity & vigor your heart rate will reach well into your training zone, if not above. It may not be "anaerobic" level of intensity, but I wouldn't call it easy. KenpoX is one of my absolute faves. I get really low into the horse stance, really perfect my kicks,…

I'm on week 3. Ohhhhh it burns! :wink:

Lived & learned. ;)

I have heard at least 5 different examples of how to calculate protein needs lately. What have you heard?

Nothing in Truvia is even close to pure Stevia!!! I read the ingredients list of Truvia expecting to read Stevia, stevioside, or rebaudioside, but found only a modified version of rebaudioside as one of several ingredients. Truvia contains erythritol, rebiana, & natural flavors. Erythritol is not stevia at all, it is…

I've found since joining and seeing I'm allowed 1200 calories plus whatever I work out in order to lose weight, I've actually gained about 4lbs. Before that I was doing around 1500 calories a day, over a little or under didn't matter, & just working out. No special diet or anything, just following 1500 calories. Another…

I did gain! Win some, lose some, gotta go & burn some... :laugh:

LOVE the pfifer scissors! I have great abs, they're just hiding. ;)

You are incredible!

INTENSE! it works!!

It depends on whether you are giving 100%, your hear rate, fitness level, weight, etc... they say about 500-600 calories per workout. Many people burn much more than this but there are a few that only burn in the 200-300 calories range. A HRM is vital. if you can't get one now just start with the 500 calorie burn estimate.…

I've been there. True change takes time. It took how many years to get to the size you are now, and how many more did you stay at that weight? Your body is accustomed to one thing & it does need some time to get adjusted to a new routine. I was doing 2 workout programs at once, burning 900+ calories a day and I GAINED 4…

I've been listening to Jim Rohn every day for a few weeks. My life has changed immensely. When I listen to this man & I realize the impact he's had on so many people, I realize I can do the same. We all can.

You can do this! I know it!

Brazil Butt Lift gets here tomorrow. Remind me & I'll let you know how it's going! :)

how do you adjust the settings on protein?
