This^^ you are my food twin!

i aim to stay under 300g of carb, but I mainly focus on my calorie goal and ensuring I get at least 100g of protein, the rest can go to fats and carbs :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxWLzaHrvSU just search "gym fails" on youtube, hours of entertainment bound to help you feel better about yourself!

Oshawa here!

new issues arising tonight! my mobile app shows a different amount for calories consumed then my desk top version. The missing butter on my bagel at lunch is the culprit, I have synced but the mobile app just dosnt want to keep the entry

I keep getting it to work and then my adjustments disappear, I had a 500 calorie adjustment from my run yesterday and woke up this morning and it was gone :( I am really tired of this issue, I have made sure my goals on fitbit and mfp are synced- 1.5lbs a week, both set to sedentary, clicked to track steps using fitbit. Am…

this is happening to me too, I have contacted both MFP by email and fitbit by phone and email, they have looked in to my account and given me the usual crap, disconnect accounts and re connect after 15 minutes, Yesterday I had a 300 or do adjustment and then poof! it disappeared, I have no adjustment for yesterday even tho…

I love running outside but get horrible debilitating shin splints that ultimately HAULT any running whatsoever. Treadmill has been my savior, I can run forever on one, LOVE LOVE LOVE my treadmill! I have a Nordic track c990- hooked up a sonos wifi speaker, google music and apple music audio streaming or line in with…

get a fitbit and let it make the adjustments for you!

I like gymbook, its simple, not pretty but totally custom

toasted peanutbutter and jam

364 calories;)

I am doing weight watchers and also log on here! I have a personal trainer who has given me set macros to follow, so I log on MFP according to my set macros for the day, then flip that into the weight watchers app for the points. I like having both calories, macros and points to follow. I feel ultimately when I am able to…

your food diary is pretty sparse, start logging, measuring and ensure you are consuming LESS calories than you burn No logging = no clear reason why you are not losing

I am obese, I have at least 40-50lbs to lose on mt 5ft 6in frame the mirror is showing improvements- i took measurements august 2 and will take them again in 4 weeks time (sept 2) My goal is fat loss. I am lifting heavy and doing hiit because almost every fitness source I have read says even if you are overweight you…

Thanks OP!! nice to know someone who went thru this!!!

I think the scale matters to me because at the weight I am currently it places me very much in the obese category :( I appreciate all the comments to keep doing what I am doing, but still I often think "isnt the definition of insanity -to keep doing the same thing expecting a different result?" So here I am supposedly…

what an ahhhhmazing transformation!!! well done!

agreed with the above suggestions, its not your RMR, its not your body's thermodynamic calorie burning efforts- if you are not weighing or measuring out your food, you are probably not eating at a deficit. There is nothing to blame, stop looking for an excuse or an easy out, I know you are frustrated and feeling…

my most favourite breakfast, i eat it every day unless i dont have the items in my house. Weight watcher everything bagel- its lower in carb and just the right size, I do not need 58g of carb in a dempster bagel! I toast this extra dark and top with 2TBS of light her and garlic cream cheese, along side a banana and my…

I use fitbit with mfp on my iphone- I have the iphone health stuff turned OFF I have mfp step tracking turned OFF and i have my fitbit linked to MFP. so my steps taken with fitbit are logged once on both fitbit app and mfp and i get extra exercise cals for those steps. If i work out i get "active minutes" on fitbit but not…

I just got my Charge HR on Thursday-after work I charged it up, put it on and did a simple 30 min HIIT workout, it gave me an insane amount of calories :( I doubted its accuracy but since wearing it all day friday at work and over night until this morning it seems to be more inline with my adjustments like my force- I do…

it really just depends on the individual- my weight can fluctuate 8lbs in one day up or down, its insane.I just finished writing a paper for school and i snack when I write- over the week I ate freely and didnt track. I weighed in yesterday and gained 6lbs! I knew it was bloat, I weighed in again this morning, 4 of the 6…

i have the old recalled force that i still love and refuse to replace- the band is fine, i never wash it, ive worn it thru all my workouts! no smell seriously!

compression shorts work but really sometimes you dont want shorts under your dress or skirt- most sport or running stores carry this http://www.bodyglide.com/products/anti-chafe/ body glide looks like a stick of deorderant but it goes on clear and provide that slickness to skin so it wont chaffe- its a lifesaver- I keep it…

bahahaha just got for a run- earn those calories and then have your cake and eat it too!

sounds like you have same issues at me!!! I have a shortened achilles tendon and very short and tight calf muscles! As a child I always walked on my tip toes! my legs hyper extend at the knee, so they bend forward and back to a degree my ankles roll in and i am slightly knock kneed my shin muscles make up for my issues and…

Im on week 5 alpha- I dont get muscle soreness- its odd, im a genetic freak tho, and I have run for years so perhaps my lower body just isnt taxed by the movements, I love T25- I wake up and see mr focus at 515 each workday morning!

yep- its only really bothersome when I am going down a flight of stairs, or going from a low seated position to standing quickly- I lose my balance easily but I still run and workout. I have learned to develop FAST reflexes to catch myself from falling- i never let go of the handrail on the stairs, I do things at my own…

^ I just did this math and yep still comes out to 2600! so where fitbit tells me im 2800 or 2900 i think its a lil generous...and if my TDEE is 2600 that would explain why I see results fast sticking to 1600ish cals/day. I think maintance for me is about 2000 as well, i remember eating around 2000 and not losing any but…
