  • I have just recently started with MFP and I have questioned the samething. What I have read is you do want to eat back some of those calories. I wouldnt eat all of them but I definitly make sure I get atleast 1200. Some people have said the more you eat and then burn the more you loose. A lot of people have said they up…

  • I wear a sports bra and then a tank top with another one built in. I have bought cheap ones and they do not work. So far my favorite has been from Champion. Its worth the money because I have noticed I dont work out as hard because its uncomfortable with all the movement.

    in does anyone do Zumba on here?? :) Comment by Mellowmar98 March 2012
  • Yes I agree packing your gym stuff and going right after work has helped me. If I would stop at home I am less likely to get back out. Also, find things you like to do for excercise like walking with friends or if you like dancing take a Zumba class. Zumba has become my new obsession.
