I am not a mom but I am a teacher to a classroom of 3 year olds! I have 9 children in my class. I have mine set at sedentary because I am not moving the entire day. While the children are napping I am not moving around, craft time etc! I guess it really just depends on how active you are with your child.

Congrats!! I am getting married in October. I started this journey before I became engaged but I am also trying to get some pounds off before the wedding. Just be careful that you give yourself enough time for dress fittings and to have a dress properly sized so it isn't baggy the day of your wedding. I have 43 more pounds…

Are you talking about restrictive diet plans like Special K, Slim Fast etc or are you talking about those who are making lifestyle changes? It would not be fair to lump those who actually made changes and are satisfied with their life style changes... a life style change is not a diet.

I finished watching the movie. My fiance watched the last hour with me and we are definitely going to start trying to be more aware of where our food it coming from and the change that can be made by eating healthier.

Do you have a criticism of the movie you would like to share??

I met all the members of Train and We The Kings. I have also met Owl City ( Adam Young).

MFP set mine to 1200 calories a day and I was starving! I changed the settings to lose 1/2 pound per week and it raised my calories to 1600 and now I am losing 2 - 3 pounds a week!!

This is just my opinion... It is a huge turn off for me! The reason being though is most of the guys I have ever met that do have a lot of muscle and really in shape were complete @ss***** and very cocky. It is not that I not "used to seeing" a built dude, I have not met one that wasn't cocky about it.

I am getting married October 12th of this year!! I would like to lose about 45 more pounds.

I agree with many of the other posters. Upon looking at your diary, your have logged maybe 3 days in the past week. Unless your writing down every calorie you eat someone else, you may be overeating those days, plus eating all your calories the days you log which will eventually lead to weight gain.

I don't fit in any of the categories!! The last post was asking for those 19-23, now this one is over 30!! I guess I will have to start a post for those 24-29!!

I am 24... Is that still considered young? Gosh, I feel so old now!

I have the program and have done a few pieces here and there... It is hard!! I need to get started and actually go through the program. It is a totally body workout.

It sounds like your activity level was set very high- like very active.

Thank you to those who answered! I'll start logging what is says and if I notice any issues I'll start logging a percentage of it.

I couldn't afford one of the top line lines so I just bought a simple Mio. It cost me about $35. I am to lose 1/2 per week so I just want to make sure I don't double dip calories since I don't have that much room for error.

You said you workout 40 minutes and get 1200-1400 a day but mfp gives you over 1600. You need to eat a little bit more. Also, try to look at the quality of foods you are eating. If you are eating things that have a lot of sodium that can hurt weight loss. Also, if you drink sodas it can cause you to be bloated. Hope this…

I second Aldis!! It is so much cheaper and their quality is excellent (or at least the one in my area) Their quality is better then our supermarket.

My floor doesn't "move" however I also live in an apartment and when my upstairs neighbors are jumping around things in my apartment will shake.

I know where you are coming from! I am on the 2nd floor of my apartment complex and my apartment is very strict about the noise level in here! 2 of my neighbors have been kicked out because of the noise level coming from their apartment. Sorry guys, but it isn't as easy as "Oh well, it is a part of living downstairs" Some…

I switched to caffeine free about 2 weeks ago! I did get some headaches but they are finally gone. I was a diet coke addict myself. I am slowly cutting back on sodas all together though because I feel so much better without them! Last week I allowed myself one caffeine free with lunch and 1 with dinner. This week I am…

I like this!! I think that is the way it should be...IMO .. I think this direct sales meal replacement this is just a fad and will be over soon. It wouldn't be so popular if it were in the stores and not through consultants.

My fear with any of the shakes is it is a very reduced calorie diet. I would be afraid I would gain it all back as soon as I began eating food again. Better for me to play it safe and eat regular food and lose the weight with healthy food.

I'm pretty sure she meant actually training in the gym. I'm pretty sure I could not find a Beachbody rep willing to train me in the gym for free.

I wonder how many people are new to this site due to their new years resolution are now giving up because of all these comments. Seriously people, I get it. Your time at the gym is being throw off due to extra people but seriously.... many people on here are constantly complaining about all the obesity in America and…

This is just my opinion... Any of the shakes can do the same thing. There are tons of them at the grocery store that are cheaper. However, I don't think I would be happy replacing my meals with a shake for the rest of my life. Lets say I started having a shake everyday for lunch and it was 200 calories, then after a year I…

What is it? I've never heard of it.
