Last time I went I had the Turkey burger and sweet potato fries. Sad to say the turkey burger was terrible. NOTHING on it. no cheese even.

Thanks everyone for your replies but none of this has helped. btw i do eat a ton of protein, and strength train. I guess I will go back to reading what Jillian suggests as she is more of an expert.

Because I have to plan out my meals. i dont just just shove crap in my mouth to eat exercise calories back. Someday i dont burn as many calories. And as I have got more fit I dont burn as many. And Its not that I got FAT from eating like ****. I had a baby and as men dont understand you gain weight from it...all over. And…

Oh yeah I guess i have noticed that if I sit down with my HRM on it will go off. I really really doubt I lost muscle mass. I lost a TON of inches. I did lose some water weight I know that. I really cut my sodium down. I know had to because I had kidney stones (which is part genetic my dad gets them ALOT)

I am set to light active. And it gives me 1710. I am 5 4. Short! My body fat is probably like 22-24%

in reallity I do eat some back. My maintenance is 1710. And some days its probably really more like 1600. i have my settings at light active because I am a stay at home mom. But some days I am not that active. i eat 1500 calories so yes I consider I have 210 calorie deficit. Its why i changed from eat 1200 calories to 1500…

yeah I am thinking its to high. And somedays I do more of a workout and then the next day I do less. I guess I just need to come up with a new plan. i do drink plenty of water 12-15 cups a day with a splash of lemon.

Oh I know i cant spot reduce. Its why I would like to lose 5 lbs. to reduce body fat. I think i said that. I do lift heavy 3 times a week at the gym. And Ripped in 30 is a workout video. I lost a bunch of inches doing it. Also my cardio is 45 minutes on the treadmill doing inclines of walk and jog. I dont max out my heart…

how tall are you? and whats your 'ideal' weight? Mine is 130 which is where i am at. And I am thinking I should revisit my goal. I am little my deficit is already small.

Oh I eat very healthy thats not my problem.

i already set my goal to .5 a week. But i dont eat calories back. i believe in calories in and calories out.

You should listen to Jillian's pod cast from this week. She says there is no plateau. I am glad I listened I was curious why my weight stuck. http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jillian-michaels-show/id418368811

Congrats! dont you already feel better? I have been soda free for just over 3 months and I think I have more energy then when i had 6 sodas a day!

I use EAS Whey protein Vanilla. I buy it at Target for $21 for 2lbs. I use to blend it with chocolate milk and i use to think of it as a marshmallow. But to reduce the calories I switched to silk almond milk and it taste SOOOO much better! I dont think its super sweet at all. Taste really good. I have been thinking of…

I use EAS Whey protein in vanilla falvor. I bought it from target for $21. Its 100% whey which is important. I just drink it with 1 cup of almond milk (60 calories). Here is what a scoop of they whey: calories130 carbs 3 fat 3 protein 23 sugar 1 sodium.50 I also eat Greek yogurt everyday. And i buy salmon filet frozen a…

I reset my calories after i do my warm up on the elliptical. But I hit start soon as I hit the first machine until I am done with all my strength training, then i reset it again and do my treadmill workout. I like to keep track of calories for each to see how I am doing. But I dont rest much between sets so why pause it.

I soooo agree. I dont cheat or diet. I am just learning to eat healthy and smart/ i still eat what i want. Stuff i like! I just dont eat fast food or drink pop. I think i am doing great!!

I was going to cut my workouts down a bit this month but since I looked at my results I changed my mind.

I agree divid the salad in 2. Most of the time they are MASSIVE! also I would suggest have the dressing on the side. then just lightly dip your fork in the dressing before you take a bite. You will find you will hardly use any and will save a TON on calories and will taste the same. I do that everyday for my lunch and only…

Ok first let me say i burn about 3500-3750 calories a week so I dont just do this video. But I do think this as alot to do with my results. I like to think of this video as what a personal trainer would but you threw for a half hour each day! cant just do this alone imo. additional cardio is needed. I didnt follow her…

Well I finished up lvl 4. I was sick so only did 5 days. But I have to say this dvd really does work! But I do also go to the gym 3 times a week also. I am going to restart lvl 1 again this week. I will post how many pounds and inches I lost this month. But loved this dvd. 30 day shred is easier if you dont workout often…

Ok I suggest doing Ripped in 30. Its so much harder then the other videos and a great change that you will like. As for intervals I do them for all my cardio. Like today i was on the treadmill and did a Jillian interval. It would be walk 5 minutes at like 3.7 with say 5 incline then jog 2 minutes at like 5.2 with 2…

Woot congrats to you for doing a half! It will be awesome and alot of ppl on facebook are just more about themself.

I agree. I do some jogging but not a ton. More as a body body wants to run so I will run. I go to the gym 3 days a week. Mon. I do 20 minutes of intervals on elliptical then 20 minutes of strength to my legs, and 60 minutes of walking at a incline on the treadmill which is great for getting your butt tone. Wed. I do 20…

Well I just finished week 3. Omg I hate the duck walks. This was hard week. I was getting to the point I didnt want to workout. But i pushed threw and did all my workouts. I really have noticed that my upperbody is getting smaller. Like my shoulders places where i dont measure lol. I did lose 2 more pounds in the past week…

I eat the Strawberry every morning! i buy a big container and only eat 4oz at a time instead of 6oz. Its thicker then other yogurts imo but i like it sooo much more!

I use to drink like 5 or 6 mountain dews a day and never water. Then when I quit pop I switched to adding propel to my water. I did that for a few weeks and it made a nice lemonade. But it got really expensive so Now I just add alittle lemon juice to my water and I drink 12-15 cups a day.When your body gets use to all the…

I LOVE ripped in 30 my favorite.

Great article Thanks for posting!

Oh I heard from the pills. If you dissolve them in water you see little worms. But this was 10 years ago. Just as scarred me for life!
