  • I tend to base my calorie burn off of the MFP database, yes, though for one class it says I would burn 486 calories. I usually count one class as 400, mentally, because I don't use MFP to track calories anymore (long story short, it was too time consuming, frustrating and triggered me to eat less. I really hate calorie…
  • That would be a good idea, except the extra bite or two can't make up for all of the classes. Lots of times my net goes down under 1000 after these classes, and can go right down below 500 occasionally. So let's say I ate my comfortable amount (around 1200 to 1400 calories), and my net for any workout day would fall to…

  • I use an unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 40 cals a cup, and a scoop of body fortress premium whey protein powder in strawberry, at 160 cals, though I don't drink it as a meal replacement, just after working out. Though if you wanted it as a meal replacement just stick a banana in it because strawberry banana shakes are…
  • I'm 5'5" about, and weigh 137lbs. I almost have a thigh gap, though not quite there.. does anyone know how much I should weigh to have one? I know it does depend on body frame and structure, my frame is about medium and so far my hips are about halfway between narrow and wide. I do have some muscle on me because I take a…
