keep at it... your body is probably in shock as you said and i am sure your metabolism is out of whack. regardless what the scale says, you are doing great! keep it up! one day at a time... one ounce at a time... one meal at a time. you can do this...!!

yes they wear them on TBL and NO they are not waterproof....

love that!

Got mine at best buy... $174. What I like best is I needed to eat more but had no idea. :-)

Also... don't increase mileage more than 10% a week....

When I train hard I eat 50% or more quality carbs and 30% lean protein. I also have a banana a day... and fuel up on good carbs before a long run that's an hour or more. Post run I almost always have a protein smoothie. Lots if water too! At least half ur body weight in ounces or more! !

Love mine! I posted a blog about it called "buggin out" at http://payfitforward.wordpress.com

I have more recipe ideas on my blog too... http://payfitforward.wordpress.com

This is my favorite! I have it twice a day.... 1/2 serving oats made with water 0.5 scoop protein powder chocolate flavor 1 tbs cocoa Stevia to taste. 1 tap cinnamon 2 tbs peanut butter2 (pb2) Yummmy!!!!!

It gets easier to keep the core tight! I really learned this during the recovery week.

Hey all! I am on week 7 starting Monday. :-) finishing week 6 tomorrow. The second month is nuts but I love it!!!

do they have nutrition on their website? i know the last time i was there they had "healthy" options as part of their menu....

good for a quick fix but overly processed and "unclean" food overall.... i had a healthy choice last night for the first time in probably a year. LOL. it was okay... nothing delicious... but was in a time crunch.

hi there! i am a runner and i am in the middle of doing the insanity program. as a runner, it is AWESOME because it is intense, and more than running. :) plus, it's full body which is nice. i love it... check it out. ps. your running will improve from a good cross training regimen

this is up to you, of course. :) if you do exercise you should eat a little more... slim in 6 is a great program for just getting back into it. if you don't start now, you will at some point want to start working out because you will need to in order to get healthier and keep the weight loss happening. 1200 is kind of…

i know you want one without a strap but polar's new straps are soft and hardly noticeable... just a thought. plus they go up to like 4x size....

looks like a scam, smells like a fad, tastes like crap. do it the "healthy" and "real" way... it's for life... eat well, move more.

personally, i have found after 2 years of logging faithfully, that i will NEVER be able to let my guard down. i struggle with true "trigger" foods... and if i allow a little of my trigger it soon turns into too much or a binge. it also depends on stress level, fatigue, etc. depends on your situation though. if you look at…

my bodybugg/bodymedia fit shows that i usually burn 2600 a day. that means that if i did 1200 calories, my body would literally start to consume itself. :-) thus, i eat 1900-2000 and still lose weight. i love my bodymedia fit!! you will find if you go too low your body will stall out, and i finally realized that was what…

i did hal's plan last summer... loved it! i'm finishing up month two of insanity now but in 3 weeks will get back into my running routine. i will do at least one half this summer and hopefully a full. also doing a 15k in there somewhere with many 5ks. :)

i would also ask, do you eat enough? i eat 5 small meals a day... make sure to get enough protein and fiber too.

first of all.. is this a true binge? if so... have you looked into compulsive overeating books, geneen roth is awesome! also, overeaters anonymous has REALLY helped me... i have gone to several meetings and read many of their books... secondly, i find if i am tired it makes it extra hard. so, make sure to go to bed early…

stepper, bike, tv, dvd player, free weights, resistance bands, yoga mat, fan, MIRROR!, towels, stereo.

ok.. first of all, keep in mind a HRM is ONLY looking at heart rate. you will have lower burns for strength training & ab workouts. secondly, if you are not in the best shape... cardio workouts that are about 40-60min will give you anywhere from 400-900 calorie burns. i burned the MOST with P90X plyo and it was at max only…

i am on maintenance... and use my bodymedia to help me stay accountable... just trying to fine tune things. :)

i guess i should have mentioned that i am very fit (run a lot, etc.) and that i got this reading from a polar HRM.

i always burned about 300 on the "cardio" workouts on P90X. i am 150 lbs and 5'5'' and female/age 31. :)

i have a bodybugg/bodymediafit and love it. i personally don't think you need to pay jenny craig for the extra program.... you can read about my experience with mine at http://payfitforward.wordpress.com and the blog is called "buggin' out." :-)

sometimes this can mean that you have lost too much too fast.. and perhaps in the process lost muscle. the body goes to muscle more readily when we go into starvation mode... so make sure you are eating enough and losing no more than 1 to 2 lbs a week.

legumes, are they considered nuts and is she allergic to them or nuts?? what about sun butter? that's made from sunflower seeds and is GOOD stuff. i would say she should incorporate more regular grainy breads, etc. but don't have her do full fat milk/dairy... that's saturated fat and is a no no. more meat would be a good…
