  • You can be sore tomorrow, or you can be sorry tomorrow...the choice is yours!
  • The fact that you've posted this on a site that will give you nothing but support tells me you're not ready to give up....so don't!!!! I travel quite a bit for work and have always found that biggest hurdles to be the project breakfasts, consisting of nothing but bagels, cream cheese, and other breads.....I grab a healthy…
  • I switched and drink Bud Select 55. 55 calories a beer vs. 110 on average for all other light beers. It's got half the alcohol, but it's the closest tasting to a regular beer that I've found.

  • They will fix it for you, I've done this before and gotten the counter reset. Go under 'Help", then select "Web", and then "Troubleshooting". Select "Contact Us" under that and you can send thier help desk and email. I filled out the missed day and asked them to reset the counter. Two days later, all was well again. Good…
  • I've personally had great success with P90X. I know there are different opinions, but there's some pretty compelling information to support eating the calories you burn working out, especially for something as intense as P90X. I'd suggest Googling it. I use MFP to track my calorie intake and have my goals set up to lose…

  • I've used the exercises found in the MFP database for my P90X workouts. I use "calisthenics (push-ups/sit-ups) vigorous effort" for the weight lifting days and "Aerobics - high impact" for Kempo, Plyo, etc. I'm sure it's not exact, but when I've compared it using a Heart Rate monitor and calculating calories burned, it's…
  • not sure about a dairy substitute, but Truvia is a great no calorie replacement for sugar.
  • I agree with jdmacfam's advice. Cold turkey can set you up for failure. My wife uses Truvia as a sugar replacement and loves it. I've tried it and cannot tell the difference in taste between that and regular sugar. If your body is craving the sugar, a gradual slow down might be a better way to go. A little sugar as a treat…
  • Yes, walking is considered cardio. You can even choose the different speeds you walk. I walk around 4 miles a day, it really adds up!
