It sounds weird but you need to eat more than 1200, if you're building muscle. I slowly upped my intake (100 calories a week) to 1400 and broke through a 2 month plateau. In order to lose fat you need to do a combination of cardio and strength training. Even though you're not doing a lot of cardio your body is still…

I'm 5'6" and was 177. I originally had my goal at 135 but at 153 the weight seems to be coming off a lot more slowly than before. I changed my goal to 145. I can still see a few areas with fat and/or loose skin I want to to work on. So right now I'm focusing that and not as much on the scale; although I do still pay…

Well said!

Add me. I'm a 32 year old mother of two, and I'm a teacher too. Good luck with your journey!

Since rocket surgery is such a specialized field there is only one school in the world that offers the proper education and inservice opportunities...a Harvard NASA hybrid. :laugh:

It's a joke. Rocket Science + Brain Surgery = Rocket Surgery

My husband doesn't dress up but I'm going as Rosie the Riverter!

If anyone needs some help with P90X or Turbo Fire let me know. I'm happy to help!

Thanks everyone!

Hey me too! Totally worth the price. It's been one of the best investments I've ever made! vdubmomma - depending on the workout, the videos are anywhere from 15 minutes to 55 minutes. Don't let the short workouts fool you they are intense but a ton of fun!

Thanks everyone!

I did want to do a Tough Mudder but thought it would be good to do Warrior Dash first. Now I get this information and it sounds crazy fun! I must do this race!

Pocorn...homemade stovetop popcorn (in a pinch air popped) with a little drizzle of butter and sprinkle of salt...mmmmmmmm.

I try to do it but it doesn't always happen. The days that I do go MUCH better.I might not log each meal andsnack but it lets me know what I can have with the meals I didn't log....hope that makes sense.

I'mgoing to staart tring for Warrior Dash in Decem to run next April. I need the time because I'm not a runner! I was going to post almost the exact same thing when I got home later but now I don't have to. Thanks for all the great info!

I NEED to do this race!

Me too! I want to be able to participate in "Tough Mudder" without being dead last. So to get ready for that startin gin December I'll begin a C25K with cross training to get ready to do a "Warrior Dash" AND then maybe at the end of next year I'll be ready for those 11-13 miles for Tough Mudder!

I'm doing a P90X Turbo Fire Hybrid right now but would love to join you.

Wonderful {{{pat on the back}}} !

Isn't this site the best. You're going to love it here. Today is my 260th day logging in and I'm going to keep with it!

Yes it is, I did it last week. Last Saturday I did P90X Legs and Back & Ab Ripper X. On Sunday From my stomach to the bottom of my feet was sore. I had to make myself do my Turbo Fire workout that day but I felt much better afterwards. You might try a protein drink afterwards, I've found it helps tremendously with muscle…

Welcome back and ditto to garrettsmommy!

Thank's girls!

hat's helped me to est about the same amout of calories at each meal (about 325). I'll have a small snack between breakfast and lunch, about 150 calories. I'l also have a snack between lunch and dinner, about 325 calories. Smetimes I'll have a snack after dinner but its usually pretty small. It's all about blood sugar…

I can't wait but am always weary of books that arte turned into movies. That being said I have high hopes for Breaking Dawn. I think they'll have to stick pretty close to the book or the last movie wouldn't make sense. I'm excited!

fs happens when I don't get a good fiber/water balance. I usually have a few days of drinking dieters tea to get back on track and then it's smooth sailing from there.

Thanks everyone!

So true. Although, I don't think it was a bad food day just a too much food day!

So I had a little dinner. I've got a pretty busy evening to prepare for a busy day tomorrow; hopefully I can squeeze something in. You better believe that I will kill it tomorrow morning with my Turbo Fire!
