Glad to know it is not just me that is swollen....just a pain when the majority of my jeans are now tight on my legs... GRRR Ah well.... stronger is better!! I am going to start walking more to see if it helps.

I am on week 2 day 10 tonight. I am finally not feeling as sore after my workouts. I still feel it afterwards, just not as severe! :laugh: My legs, expecially my calves feel swollen and feel like they have grown :noway: I am thinking maybe they are holding onto water from the intensity? I don't know lol just a thought. I…

I left the crispy mini's at home.

Mustard - lots and lots of Mustard.

I am on Day 8 tonight - but feel free to add me if you want some support. I absolutely LOVE it!

Fruit - Gala Apples Veg - Carrots

I still make sure I don't eat too many fruits naturally high in sugar, but I love apples and they are a great source of fiber!

This is also why I love it. You only need your body to do the program.

I watch my EOD calorie deficit, carbs, protein, fat, sodium and fiber. I thought about tracking sugar, but I enjoy fruit and veggies, and when I eat two apples and some vegetables, in one day the sugar count ends up be over. I hated seeing red for something I was making healthy choices with. So in the back of my mind I try…

Funny - me too. I am not that concerned about the scale at this point of my weight loss journey. MFP wanted a goal weight so I chose a 10lbs loss. I have lost enough now to put me just on the tip of the healthy BMI range. A few to go and I will technically be perfect where I am, according to my doctor (weight wise). I…

Bump for later......

I was the same way. I hated fitness dvd's. THIS however I have stuck with for the last 8 days and actually looke forward to it! Not boring at all.....high energy without the annoying instructor. : ) The only reason I missed a session was due to time. This has to be my hardest hurdle. Making time in my evening to do a…

I am on day 8. Enjoy! Missed one session last week. Was soo busy. I actaully look forward to my daily dose of Shaun T!! Tonight is Pure Cardio. I have yet to do this one since this was the one I missed last week. I can not wait to do the next fit test on day 15. I feel stronger already.

Hagersville, ON here....

Bump!

I do interval training (jog/walk) weekly. Once I started watching my diet closer and making sure I had a good deficit at the end of the day, I notice my waist and hips getting smaller. It really depends on your body. Some people will loose the bulk of their fat in other places first. I always loose mine in my hips and…

HA! THIS!! LOL

I may be slowly understanding. Since my daily work is sedetary (desk job) regardless of how much exercising I should set my activity level within MFP to this, and change my goal of weight loss to maintenance. This gives me a daily goal of 1870 at maintenance. I record my workouts and make sure to keep the REMAINING…

Thanks! - I never considered getting one until I joined MFP. Now I see all the more reason TO invest in one. I want to get the most out of my workout.

Sent a friend request. I can keep you updated on how it is. I'll probably die, but I have to at least try it!

Once I get a HRM, I will have a closer idea as to how much I will burn, then I will log ahead of time. Its a good approach I think. I will probably under estimating a bit until the actually number appears on my HRM. Then just fix it after.

Thanks! Kinds what I was thinking I should aim for : ) Now to eat that much.....:sick: I was going to stop interval jog/walk but I have a partner who I team up with and I don't want to leave her hanging. I won't be jogging at home on my own if I can't handle it. But I don't want to leave her to do her own thing... were a…

I will be getting one of these very very soon!! : ) Not that I NEED to know exact calories burned, although much easier to mange food. I also make sure I am not pushing to hard or not pushy hard enough. So many people advise on getting one, so I am. As soon as I can get to the store and hope they have it in stock : )…

Correction (apparently I can't do math right) BMR according to Insanity (Harris Benefict Equation) = 1534.65 at rest. Moderately Active (3-5days/wk) = 2378.71 2378.71 - 500 (for weight loss) = total 1878.71 Highly Actuive (6-7days/wk) = 2608.91 2608.91 - 500 = total 2108.91 So with that fixed now what.... lol

^^This^^ I couldn't beleive how off my eating was. My boyfriend just joing MFP and his food meal log was HORRIBLE. He thought he was eating good, he was making good choices but the amounts of everything were WAY off. I also thought I was eating healthy, but my healthy choices we not even close to my goals. Not enough…

I do this everyday and it has helped me stay on track and make sure I don't over eat on something. I am getting quicker at it now, since a lot of my food I eat and buy can be found in my recent. I also save a lot to my meals and I have included quite a few recipes now. My boyfriend just steals the meals from my diary since…

Thanks for sharing!

This is how I prepare them. They are to die for!! Yum Yum Yum. I also Bake with skin on, brushed with olive oil.
