My diary is open to friends. I eat clean most of the time and I'm consistent logging. Feel free to add.:wink:

I do zwow's from you tube at home, or any hiit workout. They've worked better than anything else I've done and most workouts don't take more than 20 mns of my day.

I found my numbers and stayed within them. That's BMR and TDEE. When I ate between those numbers of calories my weight loss never stopped. I eat my exercise calories all or enough to not be under my BMR (net about 1200-1500 after workout). There are BMR and TDEE calculators online. Best thing I did for myself was input my…

I dont know what usually eat but in your own recipes you can substitute canned stuff for the real veggies or fruit. If you make chili on crockpot for example use the bagged beans instead of canned, fresh chopped tomatoes, and if u must use canned tomato sauce use unsalted. Using the fresh ingredients in any recipe taste…

Long time ago I tried it and got bad headaches. I couldnt continue for long. I only assume it was because of so little nutrition.

bump to read later

My favorite burpee video, Burpees with a great scenery. http://youtu.be/-V_ahke_gZA hate burpees too!

People who arent on mfp or just counting calories themselves usually do not understand the efforts it takes to become and stay healthy. Many would love to be healthy and look good but most people I know would take a "short cut" if they could. Long time ago I stopped talking about counting calories, specially on family…

bumping:bigsmile: Thanx!:flowerforyou:

I would try Paula deen's burgers with donut as buns. And chocolate, waffle and Icecream for dinner everyday.

This^^ and I love yours too. My daily treat (ok sometimes twice a day) fiber one oats & chocolate bar :heart:

1200 might be to little. Calculate your bmr and TDEE eat in between. NEVER eat less than bmr. Google those calculators.

Everyone will have a different opinion on this. I recomend you keep an eye on the carbs, protein, fat, sodium (and sugar if you want) each day and see what foods are likely to make you go over the recommended guidelines. You'll eventually search for foods YOU can live with and others you can replace with healthier choices…

I tried hummus, g yogurt and quinoa as an adult and wasnt dissapointed :happy: . I make my own hummus now. love quinoa with cut up veggies and I sweeten my greek with whatever I feel like each day. Sometimes it works to replacing it for mayo on recipes.

bump!

We were in same class since 4th grade. Started dating one week before highschool graduation. Dated for 2 yrs and been married for 10. 3 kids later wouldnt change a thing.

know your triggers and work on them. The foods you love if say pizza. Have a slice and then a big serving of carrots. A bowl of veggies or salad next to your pasta, rice or whatever food makes you go over calories will help you fill up. Some time ago I found out that if I ban certain foods I set myself for a binge later…

Mfp calculated numbers wrong for me. Find your bmr(minimum calories) and then calculate your tdee(maintanance calories) and eat in between those two. You can google those calculators. By eating in between you already have a deficit to lose. If you burn calories you'll have a bigger deficit and end up eating too little.…

Forgot to say I'm 5'2.

If you're not sure find a calculator for your bmr (your minimum calories) and then calculate your TDEE (maintainance calories) Eat anywhere in between those two. If you google you'll find'em. For my height I can eat between 1270-1570.

I'll try this soon. I'll have to substitute the raisins for craisins 'cause for some reason the hubs cant stand them. Thanx for sharing!:flowerforyou:

Awesome I've been looking for something like this! Do you know how many calories it is?

Its been a long time since I've had it but I came to taste a really good salad in Burger king in Puerto Rico. Too bad they dont serve it over here. It had greens, grilled chicken, tomato, tropical ripe bananas(guineo maduro) (fried or baked), bacon pieces, pink beans and your choice of dressing. Its a sweet and salty salad.

I loooove chocolate:heart: . I know what u mean. For myself In the begining chocolate would be my downfall. Then I had chocolate twice a day. For example first snack chocolate granola bar and the second snack on the afternoon chocolate rice cake, topped with sugarfree chocolate pudding cup and a few sprinkles mini…

my baby's breath Fresh cut grass when it rains on hot pavement new shoes

Might seem high but again you'd want to be sure right? I would try it for a couple weeks while eating healthy like you are already and see what happens. Then you can go from there. Best of luck to ya!:drinker: BTW I would be eating back 500 and that still turned happened what happened. Younger baby though.

Wow! congrats well done!

I had my settings to lose a pound a week. I lost pounds and I lost milk supply. Right now Im 3Lbs away from goal and havent lost anymore for a while I kept yo-yoing. Turns out mfp had my starting calories too low, lower than my bmr. You should always eat between your bmr-tdee, and thats not even considering bfeeding.…

My baby is 7 months now and I was bfeeding 'till now. I did strenuous cardio (HIIT) and I thought I wasnt eating too low. I was wrong. MFP had calculated my base to start with lower than my bmr. Plus I wasnt all sure about my calories. I was eating about 2000 calories or more. Most of the time I ate all or atleast most my…

LOL!
