anymore suggestions?

I am looking online for some different ones but even low impact videos do a lot of twists and turns with the ankle * sigh *

I want to do this but I had a SEVERE ankle sprain 3 months ago. its finally healing, I go to the gym and do 40 mins walking and elliptical 4 week days. but I cannot run or jog yet, I tried. so the jumping jacks and but kicks are out for me and possibly some lunges. I would like to sub in something else during that . I…

the calorie counting will work, just be anal about weighing/ measuring food and looking up precise and correct calorie amounts. I am a short person so I have to be really careful about this because if I am off even a small amount each time it will mess up my cal deficit big time. Then it looks like I'm losing nothing for…

so glad someone posted this. its been a week to 10 days for me too and its driving me nuts. I'm drinking over 100 oz a day too and still swollen. glad its not just me... begining to think I'm gaining weight and seeing no possible way HOW I could be.

I am 5 ft. sw 178, cw 163, Gw 130. pretty disgusted right now cause I lost 15 lbs but the last 3 weeks I've lost nothing.... but I'm gonna keep on truckin'.

I would rather weigh daily. I wanna know what is happening and if I weighed just weekly and I happened to be retaining alot of water that day it would upset me more than if I see it go up and down daily knowing that its just the water!

I hope this is what's up with me. started walking and for 3 weeks no weight lost. I hope its water weight masking any progress cuz it sucks!

I'm 5'0, started at 178 now 163 but I am 35 yrs old. waist is 40 inches but don't know the other measurements

i installed runtastic but it doesnt let you manually enter anything. i only have a nook tablet so its too big to have with me on the treadmill. im not looking for one that counts it for you, i need one just to be able to manually enter it afterward.

hang on, dont think of it that way. just start again. ok, so i usually plan my meals a day at a time, a day ahead of time. i plan meals for the week but not exactly when i am going to eat them that week. maybe this would help you. i agree, if not prepared we can make bad choices but if u had something in the fridge that…

I use kraft fat free mayo. 10 calories per tbsp vs. regular kraft at 95 calories per tbsp. taste close enough for me

I have also found a formula online with weight, heart rate , age and time walked but don't know how accurate it is.

can u be more specific with the way to calculate above? sorry, I can be a little "blonde" at times lol. Is it .57 x weight x miles walked? if that is the formula, then what I calculated says the machine is spot on

one more thing. I have read elsewhere that an elliptical and treadmill run close on the same amount of cals burned normally. MFP tells me on a treadmill in 37 mins I will burn 137 but on elliptical I will burn 410 ! Big difference. Today I plan on getting on the elliptical for the first time. I will post what the machine…

wow this makes me more hesitant to buy one! I am losing but it is just so slow going that I want to make sure I am getting maximum results. Yes , I am impatient but I know I am in for the duration. I guess I will just get use to it cause I'm sure not giving up now. and to be honest, MFP usually gives me about 50 cals under…

in 2 weeks I excersise 4 times a week for 40 minutes ( on my lunch break) each time. Any week I can get in an extra I will. so if I were to get a cheap one do u think it would be more accurate?

it is correct but this is what happens. on these healthier foods you eat much more for less calories and you stay full longer. Sugar and carb filled food tend to make you want MORE and you will stay hungrier. I keep a calorie deficit and if I really want something I do try to stay within my calories but I eat it. I try to…

5'0 SW - 178 CW - 163 GW - 130

5'0 here SW - 178 CW - 163 GW - 130 I have never been big until 4 yrs ago. Sick of it so the weight has got to go!

I can tell u that beer , a six pack a day put 50 lbs on me in about 9 months. That was four yrs ago and I quit drinking about two yrs ago and still trying to get the weight off. I was in deep depression and finally ame out of it.

yep... I worked there too. its just the same wheat bread they serve period.

buy and prepare healthier stuff ahead of time. its harder for me on weekends too so I try to have the healthy stuff that I like MORE in the fridge then. I take my lunch to work now and don't leave most of the time so that's what I ave to eat. breakfast, lunch and snacks. it helps

tilapia works good too. cook on Sunday and take out of fridge each day. I roast cauliflower and cabbage portions too all at once. low fat yogurt . I weigh it all and package individual. bought turkey to slice and take this week too.

after lunch at about 2pm I have been eating about 6 oz of vanilla low fat yogurt. its good and keeps me till I can eat dinner. only about 89 calories I think

I am ending my first month on it. I take the powder and one accelerator after breakfast every day. I started dieting. I have lost 12 lbs. I did the work to earn the weight loss but it does reduce my appetite and I don't have cravings for sweets and sodas. its worth it to me for that alone because I can't take other…

my grandma for the past 20 yrs ahas decided to get and stay fit. She's great at it. She did the Apple cider vinegar thing for a few months... it helped her lose BUT for the next 6 months she was in the doctors office and having test ran because it messed up her stomach so bad. She says it just not good for you and can…
