That looks really solid!

hi!....great question... unfortunately the scales are overpriced and truly aren't accurate at measuring bodyfat...you can buy some inexpensive skinfold calipers....learn how to use them correctly..and only be out 10-20 dollars... Rob

leave him....

Hey Holly....I have a salter ....it is digital...use it everyday!...can't imagine not having it....I prob. got it off of amazon?..don't remember...

hawkeye guy hit it on the head!....seems like everyone is sooooo focused on weight....when what they should be focusing on is bodyfat percentage....or loss....great post!

the completed diary thing is bs....ignore that and continue your course.....don't focus on weight as much as how much bodyfat you are losing....because what is important really?...losing that excess bodyfat!....p90x is an excellent way to truly trim fat off of your body...sounds like you are doing great!....as far as…

Like noAdditives mentioned.....HIIT....or interval training does help increase EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption)....many studies have been done on this....try to incorporate this into your workout...as well as training with weights....

Hi Louise...this place is awesome for inspiration.....motivation....you can learn something in the forums.....just a great site....I love it.. Rob

welcome!...

Whenever I plateau if I up my calories from let's say 250 to 500 it seems to work for me....most people truly aren't eating enough!...I do this for a week or two...drop my calories back down...and there I go......or...you could do lower carb...higher protein and good fat for awhile....that works as well.....for me..:O)

Hey Idlejack...you will find MANY a motivated person here!...good luck! welcome! Rob

I have done it with the macros......shifted protein and carbs......it does work...

Jenna...ya unfort. you need to keep your pro. consumption up on the program or you will tend to lose some muscle mass....if you are ok with that...than don't worry about it! :O)...Just do a couple of pro. shakes per day....you shouldn't have a problem meeting your pro. requirements...

it's amazing how many products have sugar alcohols on the ingred. list!......def. not a fan! Rob

welcome!...you will find many positive motivated people on here!...my advice...find at least an hour of just "you" time so you can exercise..and look into a healthy diet that you can live with that doesn't include processed foods!...get on here everyday for motivation...and stick with your workout...make it part of your…

I have actually done a PSMF.....protein sparing modified fast....actually the one by lyle mcdonald...it works....but isn't meant to be sustained for a long period of time.....did my metabolism slow down?...I don't know because I used stimulants to make sure it didn't slow down......extremely LOW calorie diets work...this I…

Like Kbarker69 said...for healthy weightloss about 500 less than what your everyday burn is....so...let's say to "just exist" your caloric requirement is 2200....than eat approx 1700...also..if you exercise you want to include those cals in the everyday total. So....if you req 2200...and burn about 250 a day exercising…

x....don't let those pics get you down!...let them do the total opposite...motivate you!...just understand...losing weight and getting the "you" that you want will take some time...but that is part of the process! Hang in there...and 6 mos down the road (which will come sooner than you think) take another pic of…

Hey Nigel!!...good luck!...you will find MANY positive and motivated people on here!....great community! Rob

simple....calories in....vs calories burned.....sounds like they are just misinformed...or haven't done their research! of course the macros (protein, fat, carbs) matter ...but if you are looking at simply losing weight....calories..

what about just a protein shake or 2 during the day?

what about the pre-cursor p90??.....I have done both...p90 isn't as intense as p90x...but still a good workout!

I have a suunto ...and have had a polar in the past...actually several......both worked exactly as they should and I never had a problem with either...each time I purchased one with more options than I needed (go figure). I wouldn't have a problem with buying any of the new hr monitors...even timex....good luck!

Hi LindaSue.....there are soooo many multiple ways to break up your training. Look into researching HIIT vs LISS. It sounds like what you are doing is LISS (low intensity steady state)....which does work.....but can be boring and tedious.....but if you combine your workout with some HIIT (high intensity interval training)…

I agree with oldbushie....everyone is always searching for that easy way out...magic bullet....went to the website....and the first thing that put me off was the "as seen on tv" marketing ploy....and as he said...no respectable bodies have confirmed or backed this product...big red flag....well there are several...

hey LG....awesome goal you have!....I would make sure that your shortness of breath..and panic attack IS mental and not physical....I would recommend getting a full workup by your physician...and possibly get a pulmonary function test......I know this may sound like a lot...but ...you want to make sure that everything in…

hi!...exactly what naomi said....eat your fruit....but try not to eat too much with added sugar....but....a little sugar isn't going to kill ya!...and sugar alcohols are counted as carbs..they aren't really a sugar or alcohol....another "great" invention by our food engineers!...not!..

Hey there....haven't tried jackd3....but use white flood on occasion which is pretty similar....gives me a great pump and TONS of energy.....don't take to late in the afternoon or you will never sleep!... Rob
