Well the one that read 17% bf was in the morning, as was the one that now read 21%. Hydration does have a lot to do with it I think. My trainer suggested maybe I was dehydrated at the initial weigh-in. I might start taking my own measurements and use a caliper to measure my bf%, meanwhile laying off the cardio and see what…

Thanks for the reply! I feel like I get adequate protein... I am a pescatarian, but I am obsessed with making sure I get a decent protein intake... I think MFP is set for me to 113g of protein/day. I don't usually hit THAT, but I come fairly close. My diary is public if you want to take a look. I am considering backing off…

I just ordered this book, will be here on Wednesday, so I'll be starting on Thursday or Friday. I just started training with a trainer, but I'm hoping to start lifting more (I was a cardio queen and lost 40ish lbs, now I want to get FIT!) and I'm hoping this program will help. I have cerebral palsy that effects my legs and…

I try to not eat bread and pasta much. But when I do, for bread we get Ezekial brand sprouted grain bread. It's pretty hearty. Look into the benefits of sprouted grains. It's sorta pricey, but I think it's worth it! I HATE eating pasta but my boyfriend is obsessed with it so I give in sometimes (like tonight! lol), I just…

Hmm. I googled and looked at the FAQs and I saw that too... which makes me feel worse, haha. I did it after my workout, which might be part of it. I think next time we meet I am going to check again before my workout. Thanks for your input!

I used to do nothing but cardio really and I would do it 3-5x a week. Recently I've started lifting weights/strength training as well. I do THAT 3-5x a week and I do some sort of cardio every day. On days I train, cardio will be 15-45 mins depending and on cardio-only days I do 40-60min (sometimes 75 because since I have…

THIS THREAD RULES. I've been wanting new ideas. I usually do: - RAW Protein Chocolate Flavor - 1/2 cup almond milk - 1/2 - 3/4 frozen banana (sometimes I'll leave this out and use a couple ice cubes instead) - 1 tbsp flax meal - spoonful of chia seeds - 1/2 cup cabot low fat greek yogurt - a spoonful or two of peanut or…

I usually work out in the mornings so my pre-workout is my breakfast. I've been trying to keep it kind of light, maybe an egg and some fruit, or oatmeal. I've been looking for some more ideas.

I have a blog about my fitness/health/having a disability that I've started posting in again after a little while...http://www.kellygranger.com/blog Still need a good name for it!

Hooray! I do a lot of cardio, and I've just started trying to focus more on building muscle and strength. I have cerebral palsy, so I'm kind of making up for lost time because I wasn't too active up until about 3 years ago (as you can see from my highest weight!!) I'm a pescatarian and I try to eat as many whole foods as I…

Here's me! Age: 27 Height: 5'1 HW: 150 - about three years ago. YIKES! CW: 106.5 GW: 102-105. Body Fat: 17% I don't much care about the number as long as it stays about where it is currently. I'm also okay with my BF%, I think the fat just needs to get redistributed a bit. I am really trying to gain muscle and strength…

I'm really glad I saw your response to this thread! I have mild CP (mostly my legs) and I have been considering taking a yoga class at my local gym, but I wasn't sure I would be able to do much of it. I REALLY love your instructors description of the palsy, because that is DEFINITELY on point. I am going to give the class…

I apologize because I'm sure this is redundant, but I've been reading about BMR and TDEE and trying to calculate how many cals I should be eating on workout days and non workout days, and how to input the numbers into MFP... but I think I've ended up just confusing myself with so many references! Can someone help me? I am…

Hi! I'm Kelly. I'm a 27 year old web designer. Over the last 3 years I've lost 40 lbs and managed to keep it off and pretty much changed my lifestyle. I eat mostly vegetarian (we still do eat fish on occasion) and I try to eat as healthy as possible. I am interested in this program because at this point, I don't really…

I'm not trying to lose weight. I've lost 40. I am trying to lose fat and gain muscle. Eating healthy and tracking my habits is why I'm here :)
