  • Ok this might be a really dumb question, but I actually have a HRM but I haven't been wearing it, I got it when I was doing a half marathon but had found out I was pregnant and so I had to keep my heartrate under a certain number while I did the run, but how do I translate that to calories burned? Thanks for your help!
  • How are you guys knowing how many calories you are burning during these workouts? How are you guys (and gals!) logging all of this here on MFP? I'm on week three of my first session and I am finding that I'm just not logging and then feeling like I don't know if it's happening the right way. I have only lost 3 lbs so far,…
  • Thanks for the posts everyone! I did great today and biked to and from work and made healthy choices when I went to lunch with my boss. It's a much better day than yesterday and I am really glad that my head is in a better place. <3

  • My family usually has a fairly healthy Christmas dinner because we eat vegetarian and have a nutroast. But of course we do have our yorkshire puds :D. Let me know if you want some of our recipes. xoxo
  • I think you've got it totally right Bex. I mean, I think thats one of the great things about the site, not only can you manage things in a way that works for you, but it's very educational about just how bad some of those things are for you, and you can make decisions that fit your lifestyle to figure out how to get…
  • I want to lose the baby weight. I have always LOVED exercise, but until I had kids I never knew how much advantage I should have taken when I had loads of time that I could have spent doing it!! Thanks to my friend George, I figured out that if I started getting on my elliptical even if it was only for ten minutes when the…

  • I am a huge fan of "Fantastik" brand mixes, they have a soy taco that is truly amazing (even my meat loving friends think it's good), they also have an awesome hummus mix, falafal, veggie burger mixes, and more. Check it out if you don't already. I also love spinach, and use it in a lot of cooking, like eggs, I even use it…
  • Hello, I am new, just started, I LOVE this plan, and I'm combining it with some Wii programs I have at home and it's all really working! Feel free to add me if you want to. ~Ruxie - Midwest
