Thanks everyone! I know I need more protein now but didn't know how much, I have a hard time getting close to the goal to begin with

I'm on my second week of pump and love it! FYI les mills pump is separating from beachbody so they're only sending the program out until their sold out so get it while you can! Also, because of that they are no longer sending out 10 lb weights but instead 3 pairs of 5 lb weights.

Got it, thanks!

Thanks for the replies! Still waiting to get mine should be here tmrw !:) In the meantime t25 is kicking my butt!

Lol no I haven't done classes so thanks for the heads up, and I'll stay far away from TV :)

I just realized we are already friends! Haha. I actually decided to order les mills pump :)

Yes that's exactly what I meant, that's the answer I was looking for! Thank you!

Okay thanks for the feedback!

Some days I have just a few calories left over at end of day and other days I have 300-400 calories left. Just doesn't seem that accurate if its basing it off a calculation that's 400 less a week. I do t25 5 days a week for 25 min and wear my hrm so I know I burn at least 200 calories per workout or more. I have my goal…

Thanks!

Ok thank you, I'll check it out.

Okay that's making sense. Is the number they give you for the calories burned goal your tdee? Im familiar with iifym and I noticed its a little off but pretty close to what iifym calculates. Thanks for your help I really appreciate it, they don't give you much information on how it actually works.

So when mfp syncs with the fit bit does it calculate extra calories I get towards my daily calories? I know when you set up mfp it already figures your daily calories according to the setting you choose-- sedentary, active etc. I guess where I'm confused is what am I supposed to do with the information that the fitbit…

Alright good to hear that! I usually have at least 100 calories still left at the end of the day but its nice to have the extra to fluctuate without getting off track

I tried changing my goals by using the recommended setting rather then the custom one and it still gave me 1750 for daily calories. It seems like a lot compared to the 1450 I once did to get where I am now. I am content with slower weight loss at this point but want to make sure I'm doing it right still :)

That's the same thing I think too, if I don't have enough carbs to use its depressing lol! I love carbs, I'm sure im having a lot less then I did before I was watching my macros but definitely an area that still needs work. Thanks for the tip.

Sounds like I have my carbs maybe a little too high. The iffym calculator set my protein super high that I never got even close to the amount it said so I took quite a bit away from that and put it elsewhere. 15% for carbs?? Lol omg I'd be dying! Idk how you do it!

Thanks so much!!:)

Good idea getting protein in early, ill have to try that! Because even today after inputting my lunch and breakfast in already I'm close to my limit for carbs and really low on protein!

Thank you! That helps a lot and makes sense, I was curious if I still had to really count calories or if it'd fall in to place. All I know is just counting calories isnt working for me anymore because I get too focused on staying under rather then the nutritional value of what I eat.

Thanks! I was a couch potato and only did Jillian Michaels for a couple week before doing t25, just follow the modifier and you'd be fine! I didn't follow the meal plan, I only watched my calories and tried to keep the not so healthy foods in smaller portions :)

My profile pic is my before and after of t25. I lost a total of about 14 lbs, not sure measurements because I didn't do them. I am debating on doing a second round of it, such a great workout!

Its shows pretty much anything green! Lol

Here is the meal plan? Its for 12 weeks. BREAKFAST egg whites 5 vegetables Unlimited starch 1 serving MID-MORNING turkey or chicken muffins 2 Other Options: 4 homemade protein bars Small meal option vegetables Unlimited LUNCH: lean meat (chicken breast, white meat turkey; white fish like tilapia and orange roughy) 6 oz…

I'm not good at looking at ingredients and if things are healthy,I more or less just made sure I ate under my calories and this meal plan looks really appealing to me being that theres certain starches, meats, and unlimited veggies I can do by following a certain list for each category. I just didn't know if doing a…

I am 26 5'6 at 150 lbs looking to get down to 135. I work out roughly 3 hours total a week, 5 days a week 30-40 min a day. I like her meal plan but the weight lifting will be hard to do at home when its supposed to be done at the gym for the most part

I was going by what mfp said to do for daily calories which set me for like 1450. Since I completed t25 two weeks ago and haven't found something I want to follow yet I used the Harris Benedict formula to set my calories manually and that's at 1550 now. I guess i don't understand how the program works if its not following…

I completed t25 and it does use weights so I'm not sure where you got that it doesn't? You use them in beta. I just started day one of body revolution and have to say I love it! A lot less cardio then t25 and you do use more weights which I like. I did like t25 too, I lost 14 lbs from it and gained endurance :)

I'm starting Monday! How are you doing with the meal plan? I'm not sure how I'm going to eat 6 egg whites after dinner like it says! I usually have a small snack and thats it. I'm excited to start, I just got done with t25 and want to incorporate weightlifting now and need help with eating right so I hope this helps me.

I did all 10 weeks of the program and lost about 14 lbs, ate healthy about 75% of the time. You can get results but I didn't notice until I hit the beta workouts. I can say there is a lot less jumping in beta, I too have troubles with it, it kills my ankles!
