I use mfp to check the ratios of what I eat (40% carbs, 30% fat, 30% protein) rather than calories (although I do keep an eye on those as well). The pie chart on the app is great :-) When I first started using the app I was using it to count calories religiously but since focussing less on calories and more on the type of…

I try for 40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fat. I don't always get it exactly right, but most of the time I'm only a couple of % points away from each. It seems to work for me. The pie chart on the app is really helpful, especially when I have some extra calories left and I'm hungry...I can see what sort of snack I need to…

I try to eat 30% protein 30% fat 40% carbs. I have managed to get my body fat % to 17.5 this way (plus workouts) whilst still having enough energy throughout the day (and not biting people's heads off hahaha) I don't eat white bread or pasta, but wholegrains, seeds, veggies and fruit are all in there. Mmmmmm bread, I love…

I finished Insanity in December, then started T25 two weeks later. I love it. I had excellent results with Insanity, but I did not follow the eating plan at all and I still had a bit of a belly (this is where I have always stored my fat - I have slim hips and a flat chest and have always hated my belly, no amount of…

Woah, 121 lbs lost. You look incredible and I bet you feel even better than that inside. Your story proves what you can do with determination and motivation to change yourself for the better, congratulations on your achievement! Inspirational.

This was really interesting - particularly the bit with the little kids. You'd assume that they would all eat all the goodies on their plate given the option, so the fact that some stopped because they weren't hungry makes you think. I have always eaten when I'm not hungry but I have never been fat; I was a really really…

Cool :happy: I'm going to try it - thanks :flowerforyou:

Are there any Shakeology sellers on ebay that you would recommend? (worried I'll end up with talcum powder/chalk or some other nonsense that tastes OK but isn't actually what it should be) :sick:

Hi fellow shift worker! I also snack on bad stuff just to keep going (last night I had to eat a choc bar at 3am just because I hadn't eaten for 12 hours and I really thought I was going to keel over) - unfortunately I'm still looking for an answer to that one (well, one that's better than chewing strawberry hubba bubba gum…

Definitely healthy eating. I can always motivate myself to do some exercise but picking a salad in a restaurant when I REAAALLY want some chips....terrible. Also my job makes it impossible to eat properly a lot of the time, yesterday for example I ate and drank nothing for 12 hours because it was impossible to have a break…

I'm trying but work makes it really difficult. I don't always get time to eat - yesterday I didn't have lunch or dinner because of work so I was way under my calories for the day :cry: I'm worried that I'm going to be so disappointed at the end. I don't have much to lose, I just want some definition. I try so hard with the…

:cry: 248! My average HR was 170 and at one point it was 193 bpm - I honestly thought my heart was going explode out of my chest (tmi) I'm going with my hrm so I don't get disheartened and give up! Thanks for the link though :smile: and good luck with the nutrition plan, I wish I was as disciplined as you!

Three words. Push Up Jacks. :mad:

Hi - I also did day 5 Pure Cardio today! My Garmin 210 tells me I burnt 510 calories. I'm 5"8 and weigh 9st 11 (and thought I was quite fit until I started the Insanity challenge and got my butt well and truly kicked by the fit test!) if that helps. The other days I was averaging about 460. I think I burnt more today due…
