Here's the way I look at it. When MFP adds my calories from working out, I use it as a guide. I'm doing muscle shredding workouts like Turbo Fire and Les Mills Combat, so I need protein back in my system to start repairing the muscles. So I make sure I eat half of those calories back but in lean protein and I'll add some…

Absolutely! Remember, when you're hungry, no matter what time, your body goes into starvation mode and your metabolism slows down. I usually eat cottage cheese or greek yogurt with fresh fruit around 8:30pm.

Feel free to add me..I will be happy to support you.

It really gets me down! I haven't been able to workout for 2 weeks due to injury and it's really messing with my head !

Just got mine - but I'm already in a Challenge group for LM Combat...

Bottom line..because it is..end of story. That's why very few are successful at it. The majority of folks don't want to do anything that requires effort and work. They're looking for that magic solution where they can just sit on their *kitten* and lose weight. Why do I know this? Because I was there. I was one of those…

Teaspoon and honey and apples. That's what my yiayia used to do... Yiayia is Greek for grandmother..and she got me into a great habit !!

I'm starting Insanity today, so let me know if you would like to connect for support. I've consistently heard that some folks gain a little weight in the beginning. Chalene Johnson is the creator of Turbo Fire which is intense like Insanity. Maybe this article will help? https://www.turbokick.com/wblog/?p=709

I'll be posting my before and afters soon !! Turbo Fire rocks, and I start Insanity on Monday. You look great..awesome job girl !!

I'll be 50 in a month and I'm finishing up and intense cardio program called Turbo Fire. However, I did that cardio 3x's a week and strength 2x's week. I'm starting Insanity in two weeks. However, when I started Turbo back in May, I only could do 3 days a week and kept it low impact. So I think you really need to work up…

Great idea...and thanks for sharing !!!

I go to a bootcamp gym twice a week then the other 3 days...I workout at home. I'm just finishing up Turbo Fire, so if you are interested in that program, I'll be happy to answer any questions. I can't tell you how much I love that workout. However, like everyone is saying, variety is what keeps the workouts from being…

Happy to support you !

My boyfriend left me for someone else 2 years ago. Sadly, that's part of the reason that led to my depression and endless eating. But if it happened today..I KNOW I would handle it much better! Give yourself a good cry and get it out of your system! Right now working out isn't helping because this just happened. Give…

You don't...consider the source..a loud mouth alcoholic who hates his existence so much that he has to drown himself in booze so he doesn't have to think about. And next time he gets abusive...you may want to remind him of that...

Did you see the preview of LM Combat yet ??? It just reminds of Turbo Fire a bit though...

It may not be your workout. I did an intense workout on Friday. Then late Saturday, I started feeling achy with a scratchy throat, and very tired. Still not 100% today..still feel drained. I think for both of us...the body needs rest. It feels like I want to catch a cold, but my body is fighting as hard as it can not to…

Reach out to me .. will be happy to support you! Why because I'm Insane !!:laugh:

Either Friday after work or Saturday morning is my shopping day. Sunday is my prep day, cut the veggies, roast the chicken, etc.. Then I know I have meals for the week. Love my crock pot too. Need to start using that more for sure !!

Last Tuesday, I started eating low fat/high protein mini meal around 9pm. Weighed myself two days later on Friday and lost 2 lbs after 3 weeks of being at a complete stand still. I also increased my water too. I would stop eating after 7pm and then wake up around 2am just starving !! So I would get up and eat, but then not…

I work at Ohare and live in Wood Dale in the NW burbs..everyone here - feel free to connect with me!

Great job and God bless you for all you will be doing for our country. You ARE a Hero !!

DAAAAA BEARS !!!

Thanks for sharing this info...helps alot !!

The first time I did Turbo Fire 55 - I just started laughing ..like out of control laughing! I think because if I didn't laugh ..I would cry! I think my emotions overcome me because I am doing things in my workouts that I never thought I could do and it is such a sense of accomplishment !!

Hi everyone - I'll be the big 5-0 in October. Feel free to add me!

I bought a Sportline for Women from Sports Authority and I love it! So easy to use. Heart rate monitor, calorie counter, timer..it's great. Here's the info. Also, I think if you go and sign for Sports Authority mailing list, you get a 20% coupon..but don't quote me on that...…

Hi Carey - Turbo Jam and Turbo Fire rock! I love these programs so much, that I signed up for their training and will hopefully will become a certified Turbo Kick instructor in October. Started out with Turbo Jam in January, then graduated to Turbo Fire since May and I just love it.!!
