I am at 1500 calories a day at 50% protein/25 carb/ 25 fat. This has been working well and the hardest part is getting all that protein. lean…

Thanks for the tip on the FB page. I requested be added so waiting... I did legs today and that burned! I know I will feel it tomorrow. Been craving so many sweets lately and has been hard to fight.

My husband just got me a Fitbit, but Im not impressed so far and do not feel it is accurate on my calorie burn. Do you think a heart rate monitor is…
