Try switching up your routine. Tabadas doing amazing things for your body!! add some weight training.

I had two thanksgivings as well. one with husband as he was going to be working out of town on thanksgiving and one with firends. I really really over did the second one lol. I estimated i ate about 3000 calories that day. Two days of eating right and working out and im right back to were I was before thanksgiving. Im sure…

Well I sortof have two cheat meals but not every week.... My husband works out of town for 2 weeks at a time. he's not allowed alcohol while on hitch so when he gets home he wants to celbrate. lol. I typically join him. So that usually puts me over. Sunday night is desert night/( or date night when hubby is home) so its…

Dont you want to be tone? I think im missing something here. Are you asking if your headed for a losing streak... Ive never heard that. well not quite the way I think your thinking anyway. yes lean muscle mass is more efficient at burning fat but that doesn't mean as soon as your abs show up you're going to start dropping…

Im so sorry for your loss. my heart goes out to you. No parent should ever have to know that pain. My first born son was stillborn. there are no words to describe the emptiness that's felt when I child is gone. (( Hugs)) and If you need someone to talk to I'd be happy to lend an ear. take care of yourself.

Well yes. I believe your doctor is right 1500 is probably better if you are going to be perfect everyday... but if your likely to over shoot 1500 a few times a week a low daily goal may give you just the cushion you need. Speaking as someone who has almost too much muscle ( I love it but some say its too much ) and has…

I try to keep it to just once ot twice a week, any more than that dose seem to interfere with progress.

You can add me if you like. I do insanityat my gym & p90x at home and am an aspiring group fitness instructor ( bootcamp classes ) as well as a personal trainer. Id love some more mfp firends.

I do insanity at my gym 2x a week LOVE it!!!! I may buy the dvds so i cando them at home when im not able to make it to the gym. Congratulations on your 5k thats awsome!

Hi there! Im also a mommy in Colorado with goal of 125. I'm currently 133 thanks to thanksgiving lol. You can add me if you'd like. Where in Colorado are you? Im on the Western slope.

I just did a rough estimate on mine, it was about 3000.

Im going to buy a flipbelt they look perfect

Im up 3lbs lol. ooohhh the wine, cheese, cheese dip, crackers, summer sausage, stuffed mushrooms, mini sweet potato pies. I was stuffed before we even got to the Turkey not to mention the 3 pies.

I just bumped a post about glycerine stores. I cant link it on my tab but its really great info! Its in the general weight loss section, its called why gain if you eat more than your cut. Definitely give that a read it will exsplain whats probably going on.

Thank you i know ive read this a number of times before but it seems i need reminders every now and then lol. As an aspiring personal trainer i best get it cemented in my brain!

Im a shorty too i know how just a few lbs can really feel like it makes a big difference. Are you tracking your measurements as well? also you might want to try to not just track your weight but track your average weight. its a much more accurate way of looking at your true weight. there are some apps that can help you.…

Have you looked up bmi calculators to see about where they put you as far as bf% go? They're not 100% accurate but it will give you some idea. As for the other... im back in weightloss mode because i got careless and stopped tracking too soon (i believe thats what happened anyway) so id say keep tracking for a while. Dont…

Did your trainer want you to increase your calories slowly say week by week but you haven't re-up because your scale weight was going up? Did you tell him/her? How are your measurements? Are you watching your avrage weight or your scale weight? Your avrage will give you a much better idea of whats really going on. there…

In general id say mfp dose not give unhealthy recommendations so if your getting your range from mfp your probably fine. Im 5`4" my ideal weight ( to me ) is 125 that puts me at about 20-21%bf lets my abs show just slightly and i like that lol. currently im 130 ( actually 133 thanks to thanksgiving ) to lose 1.5lbs a week…

lol a another users post just reminded me of what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it. A while back I had been logging my weight daily on an app called Libra. it gives you a moving average. that way you know your true weight as an average, not your current scale weight with all its possible variation. I need to get back to…

You can add me too! in fact you all can :) I'd love some more pals on MFP. I'm a mom of a 5year old very active boy. and I'm working on getting my certificates in personal training and group fitness. I've been simi maintaining for almost a year now. I have had to occasionally cut calories again so not sure what you call…

Im working out more but im also trying to become a personal trainer and group fitness instructor. So i have my usually work out routine and then what I've added for teaching.

First congratulations!!! Second I feel ya. lol. I readjusted my goal 3 or 4 times before settling. I lost 80lbs in all so i think the first 40 was a matter of belief. my goal back then seemed almost unreachable. once i did reach it i knew i could keep going so i did. Anyway loose skin sucks, i know!!! Some of mine may…

Im still finding a balance. I know usually know how much I can eat of my typical foods and dont worry about logging them as much but with the hoildays I find logging helps keep me from going crazy.

The calorie recommendation is just that a recommendation. If you find your needing to workout that much in order to maintain then the recommendation maybe too high for you. also I don't like that My Fitness Pal adds calories to your allowmeant when you workout. Personally I've never actually added those calories. I just…

I run the trails around my home just for fun but haven't yet entered anything official. I'm hopping to be ready for Desert RATS this coming April. its choice 5k, 10k, half, full or ultra marathon. I want to try for the half.

I'm in the same boat. I just had my husband's birthday and a girls night out, night two days apart. both nights I played every low key really didn't go crazy at all; I had 3 drinks and a desert on my husbands birthday and two drinks and chips with the girls. Had it not been for those things I know I would have been in my…

Personally I think finding the right shoe is a very personal thing and more money will not always mean better shoe. thou every fitness magazine trainer and alike out there will say otherwise. they will all insist you by the most expensive, the newest, top of the line, ect ect ect.. Well guess what? I did and I got horrible…

I hate her voice and I hated the program LOL but it did kick start me into fitness that I now take very seriously. It did work. it annoyed the crap out of me every step of the way but it did work. I believe I lost 15lbs. it was very early on in my weight loss journey ( which was 80lbs in just under two years ) so I'm not…
