Welcome! Its always nice to have " friends" on here for support!

I was wondering about this too and kind of asked the same question but in a weird way but never got a clear response. I woukd say that's not enough from what I did get feed back on. I was doing 1380 I am bigger than you 5'10 and 170 but I did increase my intake slightly, like 1570 because I originally had a goal of losing…

I'm 10 days into insanity and looking for people to help with motivation I'm trying to gain some friends/cheerleaders to help me stay motivated. It sounds like you're on the right track!

I just started insanity a week ago and love it. I am 5'10 highest weight was 193 pre-prego and at the end of my pregnancy I was 203 I'm down to 170 and decided insanity is something that would probably work well for my. My diet seems to be on point and I'm ready to lose another 20! Time to get motivated girl! You can do it

I am trying to get fit too and hope to lose 20 pounds. But honestly, in the past I've made measuring a priority over looking at the scale. Some times inches come off faster than you hope the pounds would. I have been cooking frozen chicken breast tenders on the George Forman with mrs.dash seasoning and steamer veggies…

Nope! Indiana here. Just moved from Ohio!

I would love friends on here!! I just started getting very into healthy eating and insanity and I'm doing good but would love to have people to communicate with!

Thank you DamePiglet. I feel like I'm looking like an anorexia sufferer. :-/

Hmmm I'm in over my head!!! :angry: haha oh well there are so many opinions and so many different ways to lose weight, get toned up, trim up, get in shape.... I reckon I'll figure it out eventually with trial and error

I may be completely ignorant but what is a macro? I keep hearing about them but haven't the slightest idea of what they are.

Ok a little recap from what I've said that some may have not read. Or things that I should have said that maybe I haven't. I'm 5' 10" and a healthy 173.0 (now) I just started eating Healthy lean meat and veggies and some protein bar etc My MFP had me at 1380 calories for an old goal I set I think in May or something. I'm…

Thank you so much for your Helpful response! I feel great amd eat when I'm hungry. I realllllly should have used a less controversial title for my question!

Personally I'm more fond of horses.... and dogs

Thank you for your response as I said I THOUGHT STARVATION MODE WAS WHEN YOUR BODY STORES FAT BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT EATING ENOUGH (toward everyone who didn't get that from my other posts) I'm just seeking help for anyone who knows what a good range of calorie intake would be. I appretiate you sharing your story.

Oh and since starting insanity amd eating healthy, which was one week ago I have gained 3 pounds. According to my scale my body fat has decreased 1%. The last time I really worked out cosistently it took me months to start losing weight, but the inches were flying off of me. By time 6 months rolled around I had lost 30…

From the first responders website they provided I found that starvation mode is loosely used. What I thought it meant was that if you don't eat enough of frequently wnough your body stores fat or holds on to it. I am not trying to starve and I don't feel like I'm "starving" I eat when I'm hungry and try to stay in my…

I am just doing what the goals thing set for me. It says 1380 because when I first started I put I wanted to lose 2 lbs a week. Right now I don't care how much I lose I just want to know how many calories are a healtht amount to eat when I'm doing 45 mins of cardio daily. I'm 5'10 170ish 28% BF according to the scale that…

Recommendations would be appreciated... Im not on a time crunch to lose weight quick I'm trying to be healthy

I have been back to calorie counting now for a week and I don't have and buddies yet I started in May-ish but kind of stopped due to moving but I'm back at it and doing insanity. I'm a nurse with a 15 month old and ready to be fit and look good for my wedding 9-6-2014. Whebn my sister gets in town I'm signing her up for an…

I just started day one of week 2!! Wooohooo I feel great (of course not during the workout lol) I haven't lost weight but I'm counting calories and according to my new weight watchers scale I juat got 3 days ago I'm down 1% body fat so I'll take that. I've been drinking almost a gallon of water every day!

I agree about letting go of the scale, if you get a tape measure the flexibile kind and keep track that way you'll be able to what's really happening to your body. I'm only one week in and have gained 3 pounds which is really depressing knowing how healthy I'm eating and how hard I'm working. I feel better which is what…

I'm crying in the break room at work, how beautiful was that video! So emotional, you look stunning. I started this site to prepare for my wedding! Thanks for sharing.

I started insanity almost a week ago so I would love to keep this thread going to see everyone's progress!

I'm 5' 10" my heaviest was 203 (while pregnant) or 193 right before I became pregnant. Now I'm 170 and have been 170 pretty much since I had my son. I started MFP last year but due to a bit of moving around stopped working out and eating right. We finally bought a house and I started insanity about a week ago and eating…

Ugh I hope it lets up a little!

I work 12 hour shifts (7a to 7:30p) 3 times a week. I find the best option for me on those days is to work out at 4:45- 5:00am. I usually do a 30 min fitnessblender routine on youtube. On my off days I workout when my 9 month old is napping. Or when hes playing with toys in the room with me which is really hard because he…

fitnessblender on youtube has amazing free videos and there are endless videos. Don't give up
