see i thought about that but when i was working out and counting cals and doing everything right, i wasnt loosing in inches either, i just took my measurments again, everything is the same except for near my hip bones, ive lost 1 inch

yah butive been trying to loose weight for over a year. i lost 8 pds in like a year, so if it was water weight, i feellike that would have happened months ago.

ive been on the fence with this too.i posted a few topics, some people subtract, and alot of people dont, and they eat their exercise cals and continue to lose, so idk. it makes sense but as the same time, i dont see a point if sooo many people using a hrm if after, they got sit there and do math and calculate what they…

i used to log it under circuit training

yes. i have 14 to go and they wont leave. ive only lost 5 pds in a year. ive always been close to my goal so its super hard to loose

yah thats what i heard thats why i did the shred cause its more strength with weights then anything, and i have no upper body strength so the dvd has been hard but i didnt see any change in inches or weight.

ya i dont takeit seriously at all, especially since in 5 weeks ill weigh the same. like i said i usually loose a one pd every 2 months.if im lucky. and if i days that i dont eat all my excercise cals back, it says i would be like 123, and on days where i do eat them all, itd be like 129. thats like telling people, hey,…

what a pushchair? is that a stroller? i wish i could but i cant really go outside for more then a few min at a time. im in fl and its like 90 here everyday and im not used to the heat at all. i cant take it. even in the am, its gross out. cant wait until i move back up north, i used to walk everywhere

hmm my hrm is always higher then mfp

yep i log EVERYTHING. if i eat 1 grape, i log it. my sodium is high, stil lin my daily goal but i drink alot of water to combat that, and im slowely working on lowering my sodium, i just started paying ttention to it cause i didnt know u can add it to your diary. i drink at least 8 glasses a day. right now i do 30 day…

i did alot of research before i bought one, and only had good reviews for this one. i bought it at amazon, and i know everyone loves the polars but i cant afford one, i couldnt even afford this one but splurged cause i wanted 1 so bad. so i rather not return it, if i can afford a polar and might wind up buying another 1…

none of that made sense to me. lol i dont do technology or math...i dont understand, if everyone that uses a hrm had to sit down after they workout and say ok i burned 600 now i have to subtract and figurte out how much i really burned..i feel like noone would use a hrm, what the point? im not lazy, and i didnt see that…

i bought a timex and it wasnt cheap. it wasnt 100 bucks but it was 30 either. i think with tax it was like 70 something. im afraid its off cause it only takes in my weight, and my target heart zone that i want to be in..u can set that depending on your needs. and it wil llet u know your average heart rate, highest, lowest,…

u look pretty toned and stuff in your pic, id get it but i have mixed reviews on it. everyone on here ravs about how awesome it is, even people who dont have that much weight to loose. i have 14 lbs to loose which doesnt seem to be going anywhere so i got the dvd is hopes of loosing in inches, not pds, cause that seems to…

and ps. because its hard for me to loose, alot of people suggest upping my calories. ok so if i do that to lets say 1400-1500. thats 1500 cals a day, then i exercise 500 of it off, to eat back 500, to be at 1500. how is that helping me loose more weight as opposed to doing the same exact thing at 1200.

to clear this up, i thought the user who mentioned a recent post of mine was another user, who in an older post messaged me, started but bashing me, flat out said stuff she had no idea about and no real right to do, very rude. pissed me off. i love mfp, and i love when i post something, people respond, give support and…

thanks, ill def. check that out, i have been thinking about raising my daily cal goal.

actually its nothing like my last post, im talking about eating MORE processed foods, higher sodium, not enoiugh water, not working out as hard and i was loosing.... compared to now..working out more, drinking 8 glasses and cutting out more processed foods..but not loosing. and i dont know why u answer when i wrote u a…

hmm thats what mine is set at. .9 pds a week. so a smidge less then 1.

im worried i wont see much result too, today will be day 2 L3, but i measured on day 10 of L2 and there was no difference. i think its because we dont have that much to loose so everything is harder..i was hoping for more drastic results from the shred as well but ill see what happens in 9 days. but the postive thing is,…

thanks, i did measure also and no change but im happy to say after postung this, i went back and did all of level 3..all beginner moves..haha but i did it. im pretty sure ill have to do all beginner moves for the whole thing, my body just isent that strong to do the advanced versions..but maybe after doing L3 for 10 days,…

i use 3 lbs and do dont do the easy ones, im usually in the middle doing what jillan does instead of doing easy or really hard. its not easy for me at all..everyday sucks which is why i thought id see some results. bla. im gonna keep at it but its gonna suck if i dont see ajy change in 12 more days. i start level 3 in 2…

i know. i just added my sodium to my diary, didnt even know i could before but i try and drink at least 8 glasses to combat the sodium, im trying to gradually lower it.

so crazy, everyone gets results but like i said, im almost done with level 2 and so far nothing. no pds, no inches, i do it everyday.

hmm i think im gonna try that. i usually have a rest day but with the shred recently, i do it everyday. I'll actuallybe out all tomorrow ( i clean my vf;s grans house for a few hrs) so i wont be home to do the dvd, i think ill take a rest day and suck down some extra crystal light and see if that helps.

i cant drink straight water. so its either crystal light or nothing. like i said i cut the oackets in half and put some lemon juice in it..so its really light. its mostly water.

usually i only worked out mon-fri but because ive started the shred. i havent taken a break in 7 days, and i usually try to do extra crunches and some zumba on the same day.

so i tried the 30 day shred once before. did 10 day on L1 and saw no reuslts- inches or pds, stoped due to an arm tattoo. it healed so i decided to try again but started with level 2. today is day 7

i'm 50-50 i have the dvds and started with the cardio. the first 2 times i did it i was out of breath and the 3rd and 4th time it was eh, but i havent tried the next cardio dvd so im sure it will be a lil harder. its pretty easy to follow, i tend to have to do it before any other workout because if my legs are tired it…
