May be a stupid question what is compound movement?

Thanks for the great advice...DO you actually have to walk fast or if you walk fast enough and long enough to break a sweat are you good? My boyfriend does an incline of 17% and a 4.2 pace...I can do this but seem to be so sore after that it hampers my other training. I am tryong to tone up and build muscle do not wish to…

Thanks for sharing...great story...

as many veggies as I have in my fridge always add spinach and wheat germ- do really like to add either feta, goat or gouda cheese when I have it on hand.

Please add me...I am relatively new to this as well

Spaghetti squash is awesome...season with garlic and cracked pepper while cooking adds tremedous flavor...better than any pasta...

I think there is a big difference between male and female metabloism....Being a female in my later 40's I have to stay at around 1200 calories and work out to lose anything at all...I am envious of those of you who can eat more and still lose but it doesn't work that way for me...I havr quite a few friends who are regulars…

Sounds yummy thanks for sharing...

Ok...I am new to the strength training. I know it is important to eat enough calories and protein the problem I am heving is that I can only manage to eat my basic 1200 calories I get on average 50 or more grams of protein but I go way over on the sugars....I do not eat processed foods but even fruit veggies and granola…

You are not alone...I cannot embrace the treadmill like I do outside running....so I do a higher incline and face paced walk but looking forward to spring if it ever gets here so I can go back to running outside...

I would love to join in your challange my SW was190 my current is somewhere arund 185 trying to get to 140...165 by 5/29 would be a good start....So Happy Birhtday to you lets do this....

same thing happened to me I gained 3 pounds the first 2 weeks than all of a sudden I lost 8 net loss of 5 but, I think it takes a body a a few weeks to realize that you mean business. Just keep going...I did not change my caloric intake at all just kept to the 1200 or less a day and continued to work out and it is starting…

multi grain crackers with laughing cow light creamy swiss cheese chese is only 35 calories per wedge...You have to read the labels but there are some really good crackers to choose from low in calories...I also use the laughing cow on baked potatoes, bagels, and almost anything you would normally put butter on...delicious…

try to choose a restaurant that offers their cravings but also some healthier choices like a smoothie in place of a milkshake skip the fries and one slice of veggie pizza can fit your plan. i have the same problem especially when I go home to visit.( I recently relocated). Anyway this is how I try to go with the flow…

Good morning, Just having breakfast and getting ready to go to Harpers Ferry for the day...Great place to hike and sight see. It is finally nice enough to get out and enjoy the Shanandoah Valley.

I am having the same problem. Seems like no matter what I do I go over the sugars so I am just doing the best I can with everything else and watching the sugars on the foods I eat when I decide what to eat but not worrying about staying under 25 as it is not possible.

I would say the person who wants to have social hour....I walk at a fast pace usaully 4 or 4.5 and incline of 12. I really hate to be rude but I would have to slow down incredibly to chit chat...I am normally a people person but my gym time is limitied and I need to make the most of it...so I pretend no tot speak…

I have used the recipe function...it worked well and then I could save that recipe to use again. I cook almost all of my meals from scratch so I know the challenge well.

I am in will add to my strength training today....

I hav ethe same problem....I have found that I need to stay busy...Now I have a light snack and go to the gym. Than have a reasonable dinner and get out a good book or work on a craft. If i am not busy I am eating......

WOW very inspirational...Congratulations

Heavenly Angel by Victoria Secrets is my favorite

Would love to. i am new to this how do I add friends?

I am so sorry to hear your situation. All I can add is a bit of advice. Have you thought of going to school? Even if community college, you may be able to get into a work program on campus to aid with your living expenses. The only way to help your boyfriend is to be able to take care of yourself first. I am a mom and now…

How many grams of sugars are you eating....I was watching calories and fat and exericses fiercely got no where. I have started watching sugars and this week I have lost 4 pounds....Worth a try

I am in...:laugh: :wink:

How long did it take you to lose 60 pounds? I am currently 185 pounds at 5'7 between a size 10 and 12 depending on cut. My goal is to lose 40 pounds. I am trying to come up with a realistic timeline to get down to size 7.

web MD has some awesome recipes

If you eat a small salad or some carrots before eating the pizza or ravioli you will be more full and satisified and will not eat as much of the not so good stuff. Hav eyou considered making the pizza choice of toppings healthy chicken and peppers and onions are delicious on pizza. I am about the same weight as you and I…

Only once a week...otherwise the little ups and downs discourage me.
