I forgot to mention that the 1500 on those days might be a good idea...... :)

I have had huge success with weight lose and an increase in muscle. I am very short and have been very good at checking and calculating my calorie intake. All of the calculations suggest I be between 1200-1300 calories a day. Good to know you don't increase your calories. I eat very very clean and choose to make good…

As I mentioned below. I am a coach so not out there actually getting my heart rate up and burning calories for exercise. I do count a few calories for skating, but really it is no more burned than a person with an office job getting up and walking to the printer. Lol. Thank you for the links. I have been to many many sites…

I am a coach, so actually am not doing a lot of skating (unless choreographing something). I do count a few extra calories, but am on the ice 7 days a week and sometimes twice a day. I don't really consider coaching burning calories from exercise. It is different than actually going it and getting your heart rate up. So…

Thanks for that. I am sure it will too.

I am a new Beachbody Coach and have been trying the shakeology for a month.

I will look into that. I am in Canada so will have to see what is available here. I do use shakeology now and really like it. Time to do some research. Thanks!

I am reaching my protein goal for the day no problem their. My diet is extremely clean, and I do drink a protein shake everyday. Good thought about the icecream and chocolate! I like that. Lol

Sometimes you need to wake up your metabolism by changing our calorie intake for a day. Spike it one day and then go back to 1200 the next. OR as previously said, change your workout routine. That will get it going again as well. Do you lift heavy weights, or mostly cardio? Lifting heavy will also boost your metabolism. I…
