I have always listed my macros like that since that's how it is listed in the P90x manual with protein first,carbs, then fat. P90x (I''m on my second round) recommended macros are 50% protein, 30% carbs and 20% fat for the Fat Shredder Phase. Next phase,Energy Booster, is 40% protein, 40% carb and 20% fat. I was suggesting…

Looking at your diary, I would greatly increase your protein and reduce your carbs. Maybe eat a more of a ratio of 40% protein, 30% carbs and 30% fat. I would try to eat more satisfying, nutrient rich meals spread out throughout the day. Also, I would cut out the ice cream and cakes. Feel free to add me as a friend and…

I make a delicious Chicken Cacciatore that is very low in calories, fat and carbs and very satisfying. I have it posted in Recipes under Chicken cacciatore by Tammy. Enjoy!

I too was a diet soda junkie. I had to quit cold turkey and now I drink water only. It took me about a week to stop craving it. When I go out, I'll have a club soda with lime. This may be an option for you to still have the bubbly sensation without the chemicals. Good luck to you.

It's not on MFP. In the Exercise Tab, click on My Exercises, you need to log it in as a cardio exercise. Name the exercise, add the minutes,add the calories burned. Best to wear a heart rate monitor so it more accurate. Good luck to you. I'm on day 74. Keep pushing play.

Feel free to look at my diary. I eat 1200 calories a day and having an easy time with it.

Looking at your diary- I think your protein is too low and your carbs are way too high. Probably your macros should be more like 40% protein, 30% carbs, 30% fats. I do not see any water logged in either. Gotta drink a lot of water, 8 glasses at least.

you can add me

You look great! Can't wait to see what the next 30 days brings. Keep up all your hard work.

I put a teaspoon in my chocolate Vegan Shakeology every day. I love it. Tastes like a Reese's milkshake

You have inspired me to work even harder and stay committed. Thanks for the post

I only need to lose about 6 pounds but looking to get fit and lean. I eat 1200 calories a day as well. My ratios are 50% protein, 30% carbs and 20% fat- Phase 1 of P90x. I eat lots of egg whites (mixed with 1 whole egg) greek yogurt ( Dannon light and fit non fat greek, delicious!) and a lot of chicken, turkey and seafood.…

I have been dealing with the same situation and I must tell you it's a bit frustrating. I am sticking to the diet and doing all of the P90x dvds. Tomorrow is my first remeasure day (day 30) and I know the inches are reducing. Everything I have read on all of the MFP site and Beachbody site says that because muscle weighs…

I'm 5'4'' and my goal is 110. SW 117, really want to loose a little and get firm and fit. Been on P90x for about 1 month and I love it. I have only lost 1 pound, sticking strictly to diet and exercise but my clothes are def big. I do my 1 month follow up measurements tomorrow!

Cutco. Awesome knives I must say

Had the same problem You can only enter your calories burned through the cardio portion only. To specify a strength workout- go to Exercise tab at top, then click on My Exercises on blue tab, then click green box that says Create Exercise. This way you can enter your own description such as Chest and Back, then enter your…

Thanks all! I'm going to go buy a HRM so I know what I'm burning.
