I've heard about this crazy lady for some months now, and when I finally posted for support, she hit me up. I feel like I'm Crossfit official now, it's like achieving a milestone lol Here was my final response to her after she kept giving me her advice even though she's never even tried it: "I still don't understand your…

I do love the strength gains and just being amazed at the things that my body can do, what I love the most though is the CF community. Everyone is so supportive and helpful, it's really nice to be in that kind of environment.

What about pita bread brushed with olive oil and chopped garlic?

Your BMR is 2200 and you don't even seem to eat 1500 calories. That's already negative 700 calories, not including your exercise calories. You're definitely not giving your body enough fuel to work with. At minimum, find out what your TDEE is and eat somewhere in between that and your BMR. Also, it's always good to eat…

You are doing wonderful! Congrats on your achievements so far!

This isn't even a question appropriate for this forum. Ask your personal physician.

NO. As stated above, MFP doesn't recommend as much as you should be eating. Protein is definitely your friend :)

INCREDIBLE

Slow and steady along with weights...don't be scared of lifting, this will help tremendously!

Good luck on your journey. Just stick the course. There will be ups, there will be downs, but it's all about commitment. Sometimes I need to remind myself that! :) You will do great!

Can I join as well? I would love to be a part of this support group :)

Our teachers are completely undervalued here in America. Just as children are suffering the consequences of strikes temporarily, these teachers have continually suffered the consequences of not being compensated as the people that mold our children.

Just started too, but I feel so much more energy. No more grumbly tummy throughout the day :) Feel free to add me.

Oatmeal! Soooo filling, a half cup of uncooked rolled oats is 150 cals, a cup of unsweetened almond milk is 40 cals, add a little bit of cinnamon and bam, you have a small meal that feels like a full meal. Great way to start the day.

I've only recently upped my calories for about a week now, but I feel so much better! I am 5'1.5 (yes, I count that half an inch lol) I eat between 1600-1800 calories a day. It seems to be working :)

It's pretty normal to be hungry between meals. Your metabolism is revved up. I always carry healthy snacks with me to solve this. My go-to's are almonds, fruits, veggies, string cheese, hummus, etc. Soon you might find yourself eating more small meals throughout the day. Not a bad thing. Enjoy feeding your body good…

Austin, Texas here! Feel free to add me :)

What is Nike + like? I have Dance Central 1 and I love it! Such a great way to burn some calories when I don't have time to head over to the gym for a full work out.

On the same boat, but it's a new year, and it's time to take care of me. Feel free to add me, would love to support :)

2 scrambled eggs 1 piece of wheat toast oatmeal made with almond milk and cinnamon Held me over until lunch!

Would love to support you, feel free to add me. Good luck on your journey, it's definitely doable, and knowing that is the first step!

Log it in under general circuit training. It will take your stats and give you an estimate of how much you burned.

Thanks for the links...bump

I love this lol I just started running this week again, hoping to keep it up!

Can I join in on the fun? :)

Haha yes, but I'm looking forward to new pictures!

When I was little, every time I was sick my mother would force feed me garlic. Since then the smallest hint would make me gag. Just recently as an adult have I begun introducing into my foods...but never large amounts.
