  • Wow, great results! I'm fairly new here and never looked put T25 until just now. Honestly, if I just saw the website, I would think it was a gimmick, but with your post, it is clear that it delivers results! Great job!

  • Thanks everyone! You make me feel great about the little progress that I have made so far. I should mention that even though my ticker says that I lost 17 pounds, I have really lost 25 pounds. I only started tracking on MFP when I was ~247 pounds or so. Even with the 25 pounds lost, I know that I gained a lot of muscle…

  • I just finished stage 1 of The New Rules of Lifting for Women. It's a great program, but I ditched it in favor of StrongLifts for simplicity. I was intimidated by the following stages as well. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to finish the workout in my allotted lunch time. I even spent hours creating training logs for…

  • Scott, I don't know what caused the B12 deficiency to begin with. I am diagnosed with Pernicious Anemia, meaning that my body cannot absorb B12 from food because of the lack of intrinsic factor (a protein). So, this is how it will be for the rest of my life. I experience fatigue, weakness, and painful burning/tingling in…

  • A follow on question.... I have a Wahoo fitness bluetooth heart rate monitor. If I wear the heart rate monitor AND the FitBit, are they smart enough to sync together for an activity on MFP? or will I end up with 2 entries for the same activity (one from FitBit and one from Wahoo HR monitor)?

  • Hey Scott, I don't have thyroid issues, but I have a vitamin B12 deficiency which I get a shot every other week. My weight has been up and down for the past 10 years. I'm hoping to lose the weight for good this time. I noticed that you live in McKinney. I'm in Plano.
