i've done that a time or two myself as far as taking a hiatus. I kept up with the good eating habits but just don't feel like logging it into mfp. I'd suggest trying a healthier version of something you like so you get what you want but thats better for you. and if you can't find it healthier just remember moderation. Oh…

from one married guy to another i feel like if i am trying to be supportive in another persons struggle or success of their goals than there is nothing to worry about. i think that any and all support is good.

i agree id check into that. i know that the first few weeks are rough and results are hard to see at first. but stick in there and you'll start to notice

i usually try to eat something high in energy and watch my calorie count. i by sara lee whole wheat bread that like 45 calories per two pieces.

i agree with boffo. break down one time and get what you would eat at a salad bar at home and measure it out at home and make one close to that at the salad bar. I know it seems like a pain but at least you would be closer than just guessing

i picked up a book from the store that shows you how to use your body weight when your at home or in a crowded gym. I would suggest getting one for yourself i was just unable to pay for the gym as much as i was using it also. i walk at home and use some exercise games on the wii.

good luck

id say get a hrm. i think thats the only way to really be sure

sounds delicious. cept i don't care for avacado. what do you think to substitute in its place

i try to eat a protein shake t night after my workouts to help with the calorie deficit and like others said i have a basic routine and know how many calories i possibly will burn and eat according during the day

i am a former AF member and i have been doing the same thing the past few weeks i have been skipping days and not logging most of the things i eat like small snacks. i just got released from surgery and am able to get back to my exercise routine. if you need any help just let me know

I don't think doing just machines will be detremintal but at the same time you wont work some of the stabilizer muscles that you would with free weights. I also think you wont be as able to do as much weight on free weights as you would on a machine because your also using those same stabilizer muscles as well. I'm no…

I have it on my motorola backflip which runs on android. its a great time safer and the guess work is gone

i try to eat healthier foods and factor in what i think i will burn for my workout that i am going to do. I put in my energy supplement before my workout and my whey protien shake afterward. I use this information to figure out how many calories estimated that i need to eat at each meal

Mike I only get to the gym three days a week. I don't do as much on the weight because I know each exercise works more mucles than just the muscle your trying to work. I think I am going to do my daily cardio after my workout and see how that goes. I also do my core exercises inbetween the major lifting to try and give my…

thats what i would like to happen

try allowing for a protein snack whether it be a bar or a shake. I like shakes in th evening becuase it does two things your thirst and your hunger.

i usually only get three days to do strength training. if i go more than that i am usually just doing cardio to give my muscles some time to rest.

if you have a smartphone and can get the mfp app there is a barcode scanner that helps out alot with the accuracy of the nutrition value as well.

walt im doing more reps less weight just trying to cut the fat out of the muscles and get a better shape. i have the strength just not the defenition like i want. also im drinking two protein shakes a day. one with breakfast and one after my workouts.

i only work out three days a week. i forgot to mention i do at least thirty minutes of cardio each day as well. I usually do other cardio exercises between those three workout like tennis or walking pulling a wagon with a thirty pound kid in it. Thanks for the comments

i think you are doing well. I see two things that could hinder your progress: 1. you arent eating a mid morning snack. Going without food for so long can slow down your metabolism. I suggest you eat your "school Snack" or eat lunch earlier. 2. You should be eating more of your calories. MFP has already built in a deficit…

i only weigh once a week on my goal day. i have a weekly goal so i don't pay attention each day. i weigh first thing in the morning after i have gotten up out of bed and before i get dressed for work or even eat breakfast. its supposed to be the time of day when you are at your lightest with nothing in your stomach.

some of the stretches i do is stand with your legs together and try and touch your toes, then criss cross your legs while standing and touch your toes, then stand with your legs spread wide and cross your left hand to your right foot and then your right hand to your left foot. i also do this while sitting. I would count…

yeah i was wondern if i should be eating them back. i usually exercise at the end of the day after my dinner has been eaten. I drink a protein shake afterwords but i usually burn more calories than the shake.

i like alot of different stuff like hurts ten ton brick slipnot, tantric breakdown, lot of eminem especially during lifting, 3 doors down, limp biskit, linkin park, basically just lots of metal rock and some rockin country. if its a laid back day i just listen to about anything hit the randomizer and let it play

i have noticed that i notice myself paying more attention to the nutritional facts and changing not necesarily what i get but maybe a healthier version of it. I do have a few things i'm taking time to give up ex. sweet tea. im southern and it runs in my viens. i look at other peoples buggies and wonder if they really know…
