Hi, my name is Frank. I'm 38 and was diagnosed with T2 last week... I'm not shocked, since I have been living in denial for a while. Up until this year, I had not had insurance for a while. But I finally bit the bullet and went to the doc to confirm what I already knew to be true. Based on the initial testing, I am not…

Wow! I am impressed! Not just with your endeavor, but with your willingness to fight publicly! Best of luck to you! I've been fighting for 5 months now, and feel better than I have in a decade! You can do it... one day at a time.

Agreed. A heart reate monitor is the way to go. It is still an extimation, but the most accurate estimation you'll get for your work. I've been doing P90X (I'm 1/2 way through my 2nd Round) and I log everything through cardio, even the resistance exercises.

Keep it up, man! I totally know the feeling, though. I'm down 62 lbs, and while I can see the difference now, I still have a long way to go. Whatever you're doing, stay at it! Great work!

Welcome! MFP has been a HUGE part of my weightloss! Best of luck on you journey!

I love P90X... though if it stands for Power 90 X-treme, then I'm on W90B... Weak 90 B-team! 8) Joking! It has been very demanding and, while I don't fit their "target audience" (folks already in decent shape, looking to take it to the next level), with modeifications (which the system allows for) and conistency I have…

Way to keep at it! Snacks are a must... well, PLANNED snacks are a must. 8) The cliche is right, though: 5-6 small meals throughout the day is best. I've been doing P90X for 4 months now and have lost 60 lbs. It's pretty demanding, but I really like it. Best of luck to you!

Thanks for the input! Is the "Fat Burning Zone" out? Just goes to show how long I've been out of the loop! 8) And EPOC? I clearly need to do some more research! But that is exactly why I posted the topic... I KNOW I don't know what I'm talking about. haha! If you know of any resources that debunk Zone Training, please…

Don't know how many dudes will reply to this, but my wife and I sometimes do "Power Cleaning." I have a heart rate monitor and I will do my best to keep my heart rate up in the Fat Burning Zone for however long. Since this becomes a measurable activity, I count it. The problem with using the online "guesstimates" is that…

I hope it's a system mistake that when I click on your profile it says you have deactivated your account. MFP has really helped me stay on track. If you get this, hang in there!

Thanks! I have been thinking through the thanksgiving meal with my in-laws, because aside from turkey and one vegetable, its mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, sweet potato cassarole, stuffing, and the list of calorie count crushers goes on and on! I was planning on asking for feedback. This is great stuff! Anyone else have…

Just saw this on another thread... This guy is my new hero! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/131657-p90x-round-2-day-30-pics

Power 90 Extreme (P90X) is a home fitness routine offered through Beachbody Fitness (www.beachbody.com). Judging from your comments regarding "tea," I assume that you live in the UK and not the US, correct? Regardless, P90X is one of those infomercial exercise products that I often skip right past (have you heard of the…

I just started P90X last week and I have lost 6 pounds! It's pretty intense and by no means can I do all the exercises with perfect form or for the full duration, but so far I love it. As far as diet goes, I'm cutting out fried food, fast food, and soda; limiting my carbs; and maintaining 2000/day calorie intake before…
