Thanks for these tips! I am looking at signing up for my first half-marathon soon and I was worried that my training would halt in the winter. I'm in southern Ontario and I know these tips will come in handy!
-
Bump...same question regarding the number of days per exercise.
-
Could be many things...water? heavier clothing? Time of the month? I seriously wouldn't worry about it...break the daily scale habit sooner rather than later and focus on NSV's
-
Great smile!
-
Bump...I'm curious about this as well...
-
Go to "Check-in" or "weigh-in" and update your weight and the ticker will automatically adjust.

Hershey's with Almonds, Dairy Milk Cookie Crunch, Dark chocolate, Cappucino frozen yogurt, Ice cream with dark chocolate chips, Doritos, Fudgsicle mini....

Awesome results murmt! Congrats!
-
Bump. I have the same issue... always way over on my sugar.
-
Thanks!
-
Done! Will post final results tomorrow!!!!

Lol. I've been using Jillian Michaels Natural Whey Protein and for 67g I would need more than 4 scoops at 100 calories per scoop. That seens like a lot for me in one go if you have to also add in the milk and other stuff.
-
What kind of protein mix and how much to get 67g of protein?? Just curious..
-
Generally speaking, you are weighing food the way it comes in the package (before cooking). I realized I was weighing food after cooking it and subsequently eating more than I should have or not enough. Pasta was a big culprit. I had to weigh out my portion first and cook it in a different pot because the 75g turned into…

Ooops! Haha Level THREE!
-
Congrats!
-
Exciting!

Thanks for the input everyone. I guess part of me wants to log and eat back calories because I figure it would be more accurate because it is based on what exercises I am actually doing as opposed to if you use lightly active and having it guess how many calories that I would be burning. Make sense?

I indulge in frozen yogurt a lot...I like Chapman's Cappucino with espresso flakes (100 cals per 1/2 cup), or Dutch chocolate or Vanilla with Caramel (these latter two have slightly more cals per half cup). You can get frozen yogurt bars for under 100 cals. BUT they do have a good amount of sugar and carbs.

Anyone?
-
Thanks for the input all. I have my GW at 135 but I may lower it to 130 which puts me in the middle of a normal BMI. Just a question...why would you only do 10% off TDEE when you get closer to goal? Is it just go you make a smoother transition to maintenance mode? If I lower my goal to 130, so 12 pounds to go, should I do…

Bump : S

This is echoing everyone else but just keep going. Did Level 3 Day 2 today and I still do push-ups on my knees but I am definitely stronger. Also, for level 1, I would do one set of push-ups on my knees and the other standing against a wall. Little less resistance but still, as Jillian likes to say, still effective!
-
Congrats! I just calculated mine and came in at 10.12%! Woot!
-
Done! And ditto with the carpet. I seriously have rug-burn on my elbows and forearm : S Today was probably the hardest 30DS day so far. I woke up really sore (abs and back muscles). Even the arm crosses hurt today. I pushed through it but man today was a toughie! 8 more days!
-
Yeah, you could do that. Whatever works for you...just keep moving in one way or another.
-
Same! Three things: 1) I have no balance on the jumping lunges...I land and tilt to the side : S 2) Holy calf-muscles batman from the cardio in circuit 3 and 3) Anybody else working out on carpet? My poor elbows hurt from the side raises at the end. 9 more days!
-
Yeah, it is tough on the knees. For the squats, just do a tiny squat and still do the arm movements. For the pendulum lunges, try only going one direction. I find the back ones harder on my knees so maybe just try the forward lunges.
-
Maybe replace "notice" with the word "feel". Sometimes mirrors can be our worse nightmare when you do not think you are seeing any changes. But maybe you can feel your body changing...more endurance, ability to finish a full set of an activity that you couldn't before, etc. Congrats on the 38 pounds, BTW! You should be…
