  • Hi, I can use accountability too. Need to lose about 40 pounds. My Naturopath just tested me and found out I am really insulin resistance, which basically means my body has reverted to using carbs for energy instead of burning fat. I figured as much because no matter the exercise I did I could not lose weight. I just…
  • Go to your local community college fitness center. I know in my area I can pay $25 for one session and have my body fat taken by certified professional trainers. They'll even write a strengthening program for you. You can also go on ACE - AMERICAN COUNCIL OF EXERCISE and type in your zip code to find a qualified personal…
  • Go to chocolatecoveredkatie.com for healthier desserts. From gluten free to sugar free and I especially love the single serving Choc Mocha Cake in a cup! 45 seconds in a microwave. In fact I'm about to go Mae it now :-) :bigsmile:
  • You look great! You look like you have been working very hard. We all struggle with weight loss. Sometimes we slip. What's important is that you keep moving forward. You/we do that by starting over everyday! Don't you allow anyone to take away all that hard work you've done.
  • Great work. Keep up the hard work.
  • Great work. Keep up the hard work.
  • Add me if you like. I am a certified personal trainer who uses the site myself and suggests to my clients. I enjoy helping others :flowerforyou:
  • I so agree with you. This is not the place for it. This is the place to get away from politics:angry:
  • Really? This is a site for healthy weight loss help.....I'm all for guns but not on here!:explode:
  • When you add in your exercise you'll be given more calories. They are figured in so you don't starve. Eat only what you need of those extras to keep from feeling hungry. Be sure to start your day w/water and drink no less than the 8. Doing so, helps with hunger too. Be sure you are picking food choices that are high in…

  • So I found d out what MCT OIL is :laugh: From Amazon: Product Description Extracted from coconut oil and glycerin, MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) play an important role in the body. Very little MCT gets converted into stored body fat because MCTs are rapidly burned for energy. Studies show that MCTs do not increase…
  • I just found this group and want to get some together to start too. Was thinking of starting next Monday the 19th of 2013. Any takers? Plus I need to know what MCT oil is
  • I just joined and now realized this was last year. Anyone care to start next Monday January 21, 2013?
  • I just created a new recipe on mfp. I called it Rhonda's Made @ Home Chipotle' CHECK IT OUT!:flowerforyou:
  • Find someone, anyone, to be a support. I suggest if you can't find anyone, hire a Personal Fitness trainer to help motivate and hold you accountable until you get past this bump. You CAN DO IT remember how good you feel AFTER each workout! :smile:
  • Looks (nutritionally) and sounds good:smile:
  • By any chance have you been tracking your body fat vs lean mass along the way? Remember the scale is only a total but does not show how that number is distributed.:smile:
  • That is what a registered dietician told me! Why must people be so mean? Could you not have replied without the sarcasm? Is not that what adults do?
  • As a personal trainer, I would have you increase your strength training to twice a week. And,according to a dietician I work with, when upping calories it only needs to be 100 more. The problem with platuea is water fills the space where you have lost fat. You then need to increase your cardio to 45-60 minutes at one time.…
  • here is the standard in the fitness industry according to ACSM: 100# for first 5 feet +5# for every inch after, with a give or take of 10%. So if you are 5' 1" that looks like this: 100+5=105 +/- 10.5# SO 105 +10.5# =115.5 or 105- 10.5#=95.5
  • You may not be eating enough calories. If you don't your body goes into starvation mode making it very difficult to lose #:sad:
  • I am an avid runner and just bought a pir of Brooks shoes. They are extremely light and pillow on ur feet! I will never use anything else from here on. They are about $120.00 but well worth it!
