I used to eat the Quest bars as well and have switched over to Robert Irvine's Fit Crunch bars either the peanut butter or chocolate chip cookie dough YUM!

Maybe it would be helpful to have my stats as well: 43 year old female 5'2 134 pounds

Thanks ladies for your feedback. That's what I was thinking but I feel better knowing that someone else thinks the same :) Can't wait to get back to it!

I have a bodybugg and my calorie burn is pretty low. I am 5'2, 132 pounds and burn approximately 3.5-4 calories per minute for each of the burn and push circuits. I did Lean Circuit 1 tonight and for the 45 minute video I only burned 171 calories.

I workout for at least 1an hour and a half both Saturday and Sunday but I am still up on the scale on Monday. I attribute that to the fact that I eat pretty clean during the week and am a little more relaxed on the weekends. I take in way more sodium than I would during the week too because we usually eat out at least…

SoCal....more specifically Huntington Beach!

You've got the idea....I actually put it in the left cup so that it is even with where it would be placed if on your arm...hope that makes sense.

I wear mine inside my bra when i want it concealed :) The calorie count is almost identical, maybe a little less.

My music playlist includes: Afrojack - Take Over Control LMFAO - Party Rock, Sexy and I know it Cobra Starship - You make me Feel Black Eyed Peas - Just Can' Get Enough, I Gotta Feeling, The Time (Dirty Bit) Jennifer Lopez - I'm into You, On the Floor Katy Perry - E.T. Ke$ha - Blow, We R Who We R, Tik Tok Lady Gaga - Born…

Center Cut Bacon is actually the better choice based on the nutritional information. Here's the nutritional information per serving for each: Center Cut: Serving Size: 3 slices 70 calories 5g Fat 2g Saturated 15 Cholesterol 270mg sodium 7g protein Turkey Bacon: Serving Size: 2 slices 70 calories 6g Fat 2g Saturated 30…

I looked at your diary and you haven't logged much in the past week....are you sure you are eating enough or are you eating too much?

I use cumin and chili powder in place of the packaged taco seasoning to save on sodium....I think it tastes great!

My husband would KILL me if I did that. I say go for a walk/run outside or invest in some workout DVDs to do in the living room!

I love Dance Central and on days I don't have time to make it to the gym that is what I do!

I get a tall non-fat mocha with 1 pump of mocha syrup instead of the 3 pumps that comes with the tall and no whip cream. It is 125 calories and I love it and drink it Monday - Friday. When I first started getting it, I used to do 2 pumps of mocha and worked down from there.

Can't give up my latte in the morning and my fat free frozen yogurt in the evening....gotta have them!!!

You can get their 7oz outback special light style for under 500 calories!! Light style means no butter, seasoning on the steak, with a veggie side with no butter and their house salad with no cheese, croutons or dressing. I have to say it's still pretty tasty!

Do you have a bodybugg? I don't know that HRM are really designed to be worn all day, are they? Anyway, I do have a bodybugg and can say that I usually don't have to do a formal exercise that day and my calorie burn for the day is as if I did a 400 calorie workout. I say leave it at home and enjoy yourself but still be…

I always go for either top sirloin or filet mignon, either one is a leaner cut of meat. Not sure about the other cuts. Good luck and enjoy your steak, YUM!

Wow, a lot of these recipes sound amazing! But looking at the few recipes posted here I see the sodium content is really high, are all of the recipes high sodium?

I'm with Helen on this one....was a solid 6.5 before kids....solid 7.5 after and has not changed with the weight loss :(

I don't know that seems kind of high to me....almost 16 calories a minute!!! But this is coming from someone who can work her booty off and still only burn 8 calories a minute :(

Thank you so much for sharing all of this info!

I would think if you like the bottled starbucks mocha, the skinny caramel macchiatto should be a good replacement if you like caramel. I used to drink a tall non-fat mocha (3 pumps of mocha, 170 calories) with no whip cream and worked myself down to a non-fat latte with 1 pump of regular mocha syrup (125 calories). I drink…

I burn about 300-325 doing Cardio Party.

That does sound expensive but I guess it's possible depending on the size. I usually buy the smallest I can find and it runs me about $4-6!

It really depends on you personally (age, weight etc). I personally only burn about 200 calories doing the 30 day shred. A HRM is really the only way to know for sure!

Yummy!

I am so trying this!!! Thanks for sharing.

I really like the Steel Cut Oats as well. I make mine in the crockpot overnight...mine calls for 1C of Oats to 4 Cups of water. Cook overnight and then serve. I portion mine out into single servings and freeze for easy grab in the morning breakfasts.
