You are on the right track. Keep up the motivation and dedicate yourself to getting healthy and fit.

Yes the assessment is correct. One way you can incorporate cardio is to do 20 minutes before which loosens up the joints and muscles and then hit the weights hard. Then do another 20 minute session after your workout to ensure your heart rate stays up. I eat 6 times a day and about 1800 total for the day. I eat clean and…

Put the scale up and start measuring weekly if that is desirable. You usually wont see a change for two weeks and measure you see things that your clothes will see. I have been stale on the scale for two months (Not Worried) but I measure every two weeks and I see it in my clothes. I only weigh and post here so others can…

Well the high sodium intake from pork products (Processed) will give you a high sodium count. I would recommend you talk to your doctor and get on the correct eating regiment (Not a Diet). This should help you maintain your sodium intake and also allow you to release water. You want to loose 30 pounds, well limiting or…

I would consider lowering your intake on sodium and increasing your protein intake. Also eat clean meaning get away from the processed foods or additives. The Oats you eat every morning, go to regular oats and eat two to four hard boiled or scrambled eggs. Take the almonds out for the moment. Take the lactose entries out…

This might help get you on the right track for your swimming. http://www.swimming.org/swimfit/calorie-cruncher/?stroke=Breaststroke&minutes=15

I will agree with both of these statements. I eat every 2 hours which keeps my metabolism going and on track for afternoon workouts and fat burning.

If anyone would like to add me I am good. I am logging everyday with my weight and diary so everyone in my friends list sees the habits and training I do to reach my goals. I am not concerned about weight more than eating and training hard. IF the diary helps others to start a clean eating regiment then great if lifting or…

Haters will be here and everywhere. The only thing that MFP does it to allow them to really show their true colors. In a help and support forum then you will have all types of people because society has shifted from a thought process (Smart) people to ignorance (Stupid). When you see a hater typing then that person is the…

Everyone is different when it comes to opinions or statements. I however would prefer to have comments opinions and anything from others. This is because if they are talking about me then I am doing something right and they don't know what they are doing to get fit. Drive forward and move up the stakes. Get fit and prove…

Lets say attractiveness comes in many ways, forms and fashion. It does not matter what others think about your pecks (I think pecks are sexy on a woman) because being healthy is the ultimate goal. If a man thinks they are not sexy than he needs to evaluate what he is looking for. Meaning: People who judge people from looks…

Yes, I have leveled off and still have 50 pounds to loose. I have restructured my eating where I take in more protein than I did before. I have went to eat two to four egg whites in the morning. Chicken Fish three times a day and 1/4 cup of rice two times a day and broccoli throughout the day. I also take a supplement…

Luara, You are correct. There are al ot of fake advertise people where I got caught up in one. To move forward one has to set the mind over the body to push the body to the brink and beyond to be healthy. One way since I have fell into a set of bad luck is to ensure that my mind stayed somewhat healthy and it kept me…

Ok let me start it this way since I have been around the block. You don't need to be concerned with your metabolism right now cause you havent discussed anything with a doctor (Medical). They will be able to help you on your course to fixing anything that you might think you have. Everyone here has gave their opinion which…

This is one of the most talked about fluctuation in forums and not just in MFP. I will say this factors and more factors play parts and more parts. I would do this and it may help in the ever changing scale weight. Get on the scale and jump up and down on it and break it. This will help in the change in weight. Start…

Its better to look back on life and say: "I cant believe I did that" than to look back and say: "I wish I did that".. There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.

You can change it to what you want on the app or here. Just make sure you are getting enough nutrients to help with stabilization or weight loss. http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/8-ways-to-burn-calories-and-fight-fat

Maybe this will help.. http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/8-ways-to-burn-calories-and-fight-fat I do a low calorie diet where I take in 1500 and burn half in the gym..

SloRose, This will happen if you do not stretch before you run. Do things like crossover stretches and forward lunge in place to stretch the calves out. Always stretch before you run it helps in building and conditioning the muscles. I hope this helps

What have you changed in your eating or exercise routine? Change up your eating habits eat more raw veggies like sweet peppers and jalapeno peppers, Increase your walks, runs or any cardio by 10 minutes.
-
LeeBee, Cardio can be done everyday as long as you don't do your lower body that day. I do both on strength days and run on my off days from weights. To lose weight you have to increase your heart rate to achieve success. If you haven't been in the gym or working out for a while I would start light like a 30 minute bike…

A healthy eating is always best. That means eating right all the time. If you want weight loss then increase your cardio like a fast or brisk 2 miles. Increase your heart rate and break a sweat. This increases the fat burning mechanisms in your body with the right balance of foods.
-
Well I have done this once since I got hard and heavy. I would pick a place that is beautiful (Park, lake or beach) and take a break from the gym and take a nice leasurely walk and enjoy your surroundings. Its relaxing and motivational, yes yes you still get to exercise.
-
Never think of it as a set back or a failure. Look at it from a positive view as a opportunity to improve your thinking and keep going. this is not a start over situation is a moving forward situation where the donuts is the key. You see the donuts and you move on. Eat or don't eat that is a choice and opportunity to get…

Never give up on anything that you want. The healthy lifestyle always is hard starting but once you keep that up it changes and the foods you choose to eat will always be healthy choices. If you are having issues with your ankle then a sit down bike at the gym helps keep you moving. My daughter broke her bones above her…
