I really hate it when people log normal activities that arent deliberate exercise. Especially if they're going to eat them back. Its ridiculous.

I did 30 day shred before and logged it.. but as users said before, it's really easy to overestimate the calories. I found I only starting losing when I did about 15 mins of cardio right before, like running or another cardio workout dvd. Didn't find great results though. I am now doing ripped in 30 and i'm not logging it,…

21, add if you like :)

I leave my house at 630 and get in at 830. I wake up at 430 to work out. Still get my 7 hours sleep. Sometimes, like if i've worked more than 6 days in a row, i find it SO hard to wake up.. but generally i've got used to it.

I've lost 32lbs and haven't gone down 2 sizes yet. But in the past couple of weeks i've added more weight training into my routine (doing ripped in 30 aswell as cardio) and my jeans are already a lot looser. So helps if you're working out well aswell.

Any PT's i've asked have said it's not a good idea to eat them back - unless you're working out to an extreme (like all day bootcamps). Even Jessica Smith says not to on her website. Some people use it as an excuse to eat bad foods because they've exercised enough.. but that's not the point. It's especially ridiculous with…

It works really well for me to have a bigger breakfast. I have much more energy in the day and don't feel sluggish in the evenings. I go to bed about 10pm and I don't like to eat after 6pm (even if I go to the gym in the evening). Some people say it doesn't matter if you eat late, in my personal experience it does. But do…

30 day shred is good if you want to tone up but I found it impossible to lose weight on it, I don't think it's enough cardio. I love all of the tae bo dvds no matter how old they are and they always deliver the best results. I also have tried the lose weight workout with mikyla dodd. She is such a random 'celebrity' and I…

I think sometomes when people are bigger if they lack self confidence they dont like trying new things out beauty wise. Im the opposite, because im uncomfortable with my body I try and compensate by everything else so im always tanned, nails done and full face of makeup. I think if I was more comfortable with my body I…

I wouldnt try and count calories if I was. But I think best way to do it is drink white spirits like vodka with diet soda

Waalaikum salaam. Im planning on doing exercise just before I go to bed after I've broken the fast. And yeah 15 mins will help I sometimes exercise for 15 mins a day and I still lose weight. The only problem is its going to be hard to lose weight when eating so late at night

Not going to try it just yet but wish you luck.. you can do it!

Double the amount of cardio you're already doing. . Get that heart rate up. No more strength. Stay well within your calories and don't eat after 7pm. Good luck.. after you've done these few days carry on going slow!

I know things like squats and deadlifts work.. but I think there are some exercises that work your butt but dont necessarily build it.

I did not get any results for about 20 days. After being tired of no results I added 10 mins on treadmill before my workout and then I started to lose weight. . But I lose the same Weight doing that 10 mins of cardio even without the 30ds so personally the 30ds does not work for me at all. I don't feel like it gets your…

I've always had the same from family are friends. Best way to be is act business as usual and just dont talk about Weight and stuff with them. They'll get bored of making comments.. just use your friends on mfp for motivation!

May sound really ridiculous but little mix - change your life really motivates me.

Best way to learn how to use weights is to look at YouTube videos so you can watch the techniques done properly as it's hard to explain how to do things writing them down. And don't be nervous, people in gyms don't really pay attention to anyone else so don't feel self conscious

This is no help to you but thought id mention last night I binged and ate a curry and rice with 2 naans and a glass of coke and still lost 0.75lbs over night. Cant work it out either

As long as I really push myself on the cardio and dont do too much strength. When I did the 30 day shred even though I was eating SO well I didn't lose weight. I only ever lost weight on it if I did about 15mins on treadmill aswell. In general though I think its mostly about the diet.. exercise just gives you more health…
