I just had that craving!! I made a grilled cheese sandwich with tomato slices for lunch - it was great - used low cal everything and i think it was all less than 250 calories. DELISH!!

You know you are a fitness nut when you are asked to make a gift list and 90% of the items on it are health or fitness related!!! My hubby wanted some gift ideas all I had listed was exercise clothing, gloves, weights, HRM . . . I think getting your wife something that will give both of you something to do together - and…

I can't believe I just finished level 2 of the 30 day SHRED - but beyond that - my underwear started falling down while exercising!! :blushing: I was doing jumping jacks and my underwear started to fall down!!! Every time I tried to do any of the cardio - jumping - they kept falling down!!!! :noway: I guess I really have…

planks are good. using a big ball very slow bicycle - these are killer good luck

How do you keep it off??? I am very close to reaching my goal and am now worried about gaining it back. I feel like if I eat all of my allotted calories - I will gain my weight back!!! I am so scared of doing all this hard work just to put it all back on again. :grumble: For those of you who have been successful - how are…

i like kashi go lean cereals - some say it tastes and looks like rabbit food - but it does have a bit of sweet to it that i like - and so do my kids!! rice chex honey nut and plain cheerios raisin bran wheat chex oatmeal i also eat rice with a dab of butter and milk sometimes when i just want a little something different.…

I:flowerforyou: have been looking all over for a good tilapia recipe. Thanks so much for posting this! I cannot wait to try it!!

WOW! I see a big difference. You are built very similar to my husband. He is overseas right now and we are using this time to try to get more fit. I am hoping that in the 5 months that he is gone - he will see some of these same results like you. GOOD JOB!!!!

I never had stretch marks so I don't know about that part . . . But as for the stomach - I am now 133 lbs and I still can't get my lower stomach to be flat! I try so hard and you can touch my stomach thru the skin and it is really hard underneath - I can even see "2" of the "6-pack abs" at the top of my stomach - but that…

I am not 100% sure - but to me - my opinion - is that each day is 24 hours - each person eats and exercises at different times. Even if you exercise at night - you need to eat your calories cause your body needs it for fuel. If you exercise at any time during that 24 hour day morning, noon or night - it should count…

I have used both in the gym - I was a diehard stairclimber person - then I tried the elliptical - I LOVE THE ELLIPTICAL!! I would put in my info and I would burn WAY more calories on the elliptical (with adjustments to levels and resistance) than the stairclimber for the same amount of time and I truly felt like I was…

I worked in the Personel Dept for a Plastics Factory before deciding to stay at home when I had children. Right now - I am currently a SAHM (who is never home), Medical Transcriptionist, Part-Time daycare provider for 2 children (not my own) and go to school part-time as I am working on getting my Associates Degree in…

http://www.calories-burned.buddyslim.com/30-day-shred-by-jillian-michaels/ here is where I found it. I just typed in "how many calories burned in 30 day shred" and this came up. Hope it helps as I am getting this DVD soon and want to be sure of the calories burned also. Please let us know what you find with your HRM!!! I…

I looked all over the internet and I finally found a site that said you would burn 609 calories in ONE HOUR of doing the Shred if you weighed 154lbs. So you would have to adjust that for you - but at least it is a baseline to go off of. Hope this helps.

I just ordered this DVD and am excited to see how it works for me. I was also wondering about how many calories I will burn doing this - or how I should log it to get the most accurate calorie count through the MFP database. Anybody know???

Maybe while you are walking at a slower pace with your child, you could wear ankle weights or use light hand weights to help make you work a little harder while going at the slower pace. Good luck!! and Good for you to bring this change into your family and not just for yourself!! That is so awesome!!!

I really like #3. Good Luck!!

Well, for the first time I did the BURN IT UP routine! WOW!!! Did I ever burn it up!!! I was sweating so much I was fogging up my glasses!!! I tried looking up on their website how many calories they estimate I would burn doing this routine: They say that it is 500 calories for each one of the levels - that cannot be…

I have already ate all but 86 of my daily calories. I splurged and ate a little extra and didn't calculate the calories until after I ate. Now I feel like a total idiot for even putting it in my mouth. :explode: I should have known better. I am gonna try to exercise to get back some of my calories - but there is no way I…

Yes, I would like to know also what exactly you are doing, how long you are at the gym and if you are using a HRM. GOOD LUCK!! I would love to do what you are doing!!! Keep up the good work!!!:smile:

I don't know for sure - but what my experience was and what I was told when I was nursing (and smoking :explode: was that if you were gonna smoke - do it right after nursing - that gives your body time to process the nicotine and get most of it out of your system before the baby needs to nurse again. It does change the…

I found myself hungry with at least another hour until lunch - so I grabbed some celery sticks and some water. It filled me up and gave me something to chew on until it was time to really eat. Hope this helps!!

I drink the Special K Protein Water because it only has 50 calories and it does help fill you up when you drink it with a light lunch or snack. :drinker:

Please reply so that I can find you and add you to my friends! Thanks!:drinker: :flowerforyou:

I have been doing so good the past couple of weekends - and this weekend - I just all out gorged on cake and stuff I normally wouldn't even want. I don't know why I even put it in my mouth cause it didn't even taste all that good. I am so disappointed in myself. I hate to even look at the scale!!! :mad: I am not going to…

Have you been exercising? I have been really exercising hard core - and not eating all of my exercise calories - most but not all of them - and I am up 1.5 lbs!!!! I have been frustrated also - but I have also noticed that my clothes are not fitting the same - so I am hoping that I am trading my fat for muscle - and muscle…

I have been doing the Slim in 6 workout and the Biggest Loser workouts. I looked at what other people had listed at how many calories were burned as I don't have a HRM. But now I have been thinking that I might be wrong as I don't weigh what the people posting weigh and that will make a difference in how many calories are…

I take a graham cracker and break it in 1/2 - fill it with 2 TBSP of cool whip free and then put it in the freezer - a homemade "ice cream sandwich". It is only 85 calories. also the hershey 100 calorie choc covered pretzels or dark chocolate bar and 90 calorie curves popcorn

and fell over

I personally think you will be fine. It is basically the calorie deficit over a period of time - say a week - that will have you losing weight. If you are constantly going low in your calories for several weeks I am pretty sure you will go into starvation mode - but from one day - I don't think so. I hope this helps.
