  • Do you have a smart phone? If so you can get the free CardioTrainer app and buy a Polar bluetooth chest strap and it will link to your phone. You can share your workouts on facebook, twitter etc. It keeps track of your history and has a heart rate graph you can look at. It is pretty cool. If you don't have a smart phone, I…

  • Fiber for sure. Fish Oil capsules also help quite a bit. Will also help with joints, skin and hair (it has in my case). Also, be sure you are taking in enough calories every day with the exercise you are doing.

  • I agree with this post completely. That is beauty of MFP is that it puts it all right there in front of you. I would not be worried about being a few points over the protein requirement, as a matter of fact you should be if you are exercising a lot.

  • As far as strength training . If you have a gym in your area or go to a gym with Les Mills BodyPump, I would suggest that group fitness class. The essentials of the program are lower weight + higher reps + pace changes = lean muscle. If you do not have a gym membership or do not have a Les Mills-enriched gym near you, you…

  • I do Combat with a HRM (chest strap) on and I normally average about 500-530 calories/60 min. I love Combat! Best way to know for sure is to get a HRM with chest strap so it can keep track of your HR more accurately. Guessing just doesn't cut it for me...seeing as different bodies burn at a different rate.

  • Lower weight + more reps equals lean muscle. Change up speed. Do not just do up/down. Go quick down/slow up, etc. Add some tricep dips in there too.

  • Congrats... I had the same problem. I got a ring guard put on my engagement ring and I wear it on top of my wedding band, so it will keep both on. Works like a charm. I am in the same boat you are. I don't want to resize until I reach my goal.

  • I have never responded to a blog before, but I can't let this pass me by. I am not sure what types of diet you are trying now or have tried. I too have PCOS. I started my diet in July and thus far have lost 85 pounds. I am on the South Beach Diet. Buy the book and read it. It wasn't until I went to a Nurse Practitioner…
