Same, started back today and will be deleting MFP and going else where. Terrible decision by management

Thanks for taking the time to respond!!! Very insightful and helpful. I have been on this workout regime for a year now. I used to just run, but I decided to start cross-fit and try to gain some muscle and increase fat burn that way. My simple goal is to be able to take my shirt off at the pool and beach, LOL Again, very…

Thanks, a family member actually recommended this also. I will look into this. Thanks for the YouTube suggestion!!!

O...H

I am in. My last events were a 4-miler in November and a 5K on Thanksgiving. Since then I have put on 15 lbs and I need to get it off. The snow is finally melted and I can see the sun at times so it is about time to get back to it. I signed up for a half marathon in October to give myself something to works towards. Last…

I am on the road for work 3 to 4 days per week, so I have to eat fast food because that is all I have time for. I try to pack my lunch and eat in the car but that doesn't always happen. So, here are my go to places. Taco Bell - chicken or steak fresca tacos - 150 calories each, I get 3 of them and I am filled up for 450…

I have the same issue. I put my kids to bed around 9pm and then go running when it is dark. I am in the sub 25 minutes 5k range right now and I still can't run in my neighborhood in day light. I don't have any trouble running in a race, which is weird. When I do make myself run in daylight, I turn my music up louder than…

Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I never thought of the diet thing for testosterone, just foods for raising metabolism. I will also look into the other brands. As far as the last post, I have a Wife and we have 2 small kids, to tell you the truth, after 10 yrs of marriage I think she is enjoying the lower levels. I am…

Great Job... GO BUCKS!!! O...H

Mine was having one of my wife's aunts tell me that I better stop losing weight because I was starting to look sickly. I laughed and told her that I still had 10 pounds to go. Then I realized that she was serious after she started getting upset at me for still wanting to lose more.

Thanks for the response, I am done having children but I didn't have to deal with any of the weight gain, that was my Wife's job :smile:

I had 2 over the weekend. I bought dress pants because everything that I had been wearing were to big, I bought size 34, 18 months ago I wore size 42. Also, while at a Christmas party, one of my Wife's aunts who I have not seen since last Christmas told me that I better stop losing weight because I was starting to look…

It is great motivation when someone walks up and comments. I was at a family Christmas party last week and my Wife's Aunt, who I have not seen since last Christmas actually said to me "you better stop losing weight because you are starting to look sickly". I told her that I had 10 more pounds to go and she said "no way,…

I am super motivated to hit ONE-derland before the end of the year, I have 9 lbs to go, so I think it is do-able. I plan on carrying a note in my wallet that says 199.9 lbs on it. Before I fill my plate, I am going to look at the card and then eat accordingly. Not sure if it will work but it sounds good.

I just finished week #2, I love it now. I can't wait to get home from work to do that day's excercise. I started at 220lbs (6ft male) and I am only down to 217lbs but I can tell a big difference. I just finished my 2nd fit test and made improvments with all 8 excercises. I hope more weight starts to come off soon.

I have the exact same addiction to Diet M Dew. I drink 2 20oz bottles per day, I have to set my limit at that or I won't get my water in. I also make sure I get my water in, especially before and after I work out. I have no problem staying within my calories because Diet Dew has zero calories (or 10 per 20 oz bottle). As…

Terrell Pryor... GO BUCKS!!!

I used the C25K to work towards running the Warrior Dash this past weekend. It was a blast. I recommend it to everyone. During the winter months I wasn't able to hold to the C25K that much. I found that I lost way more weight using my elliptical then running outside training for the Warrior Dash. I think that I got in…

I have started eating a frozen breakfast sandwich made by Jimmy Dean. It is ham, egg and cheese on a wheat english muffin. They are only 210 calories and are really good and quick. They are kind of expensive ($5 for a package of 4).

I have not gotten little red bumps, but the heat and body temp thing could be a reason. The weather had started to get warmer in Ohio and last night I think it was close to 80 when I ran. 80 seems hot now but will be cool in a few months :)

I tore my ACL in April of 2010 playing basketball and had it completly replaced in October of 2010. I went though physical therapy for 6 months after surgery which ended in April of 2011. It has been almost a year since PT was complete. I still have pain every now and then but right now I am running 9 - 15 miles a week (3…

My daily "go to" menu is: Jimmy Dean D-light breakfast sandwich - 210 cal frozen chicken breast - approx 110 cal celery - approx 20 cal w/ laughing cow cheese wedge - 35 cal pre packaged apple slices - 30 cal steamed broccoli - approx 35 cal pretzel sticks - 100 cal weight watcher cheese stick - 50 cal 100 cal packs if I…

Taco Bell is actually a major part of my current diet. I am travelling alot for my job and if I need to eat fast I find a Taco Bell. I get 3 Fresca soft tacos at 150 calories each and I have a quick on the go lunch for 450 calories that fills me up.
