I usually do a quick walk during my morning and afternoon break. I work at a hospital, so I walk around the floor (I am on a secure floor as I am in Medical Records) and I do a few sets of stairs also. I used to do 6 floors of stairs on my way to lunch but I dont do that anymore.... I get in at least 30 minutes of the…

I think you just need to go by the maintaining calories when you get to where you want to be...know what I mean?? lol

I went to the site to see what it was like, it has me with several hundred more calories than MFP does. I am going to get into this site and research to see how they compare....good luck with your weight loss journey!!

we all carry out weight differently.... I guess its due to some having more muscles tone than others?!! I have always been told that I didnt look like what my weight said but I was more solid I guess... I actually had some muscle under it all!!! LOL :smile:

Swimming in general makes you tired. When my kids were younger and played sports, we could not go swimming on game days because they drug their butts out there!! And the coach ALWAYS knew that we had gone swimming. Not sure what causes it but it does.... lol good luck!!

Thats awesome!!! :happy:

Thats Incredible!!! You look amazing!! Congratulations!!! :flowerforyou:

Im sorry to hear about your kitten. I know it can be heart wrenching. All I know to tell you is just get up and do it!! I got thru the same emotional eating but for different reasons. After a couple days I just get mad at myself and make myself do better... Good luck! :flowerforyou:

I have the Mio Petite Motiva. Love it!!

Age also factors in to how quickly we lose weight. I dont know why but as you get older, its tougher to lose!! I guess your body just likes it too much and doesnt want to part with it!!! :laugh:

just wondering but how did you come up with this number?? the way I understand it is, you should not make it a habit of staying below the calorie intake suggested on MFP. and to always to eat the extra calories burned by exercise.

I have taken depo provera in the past. I wasnt working out or anything at the time as it was almost 18 yrs ago. The one thing I can tell you is I gained weight like crazy!!!!!!! I probly went up at least 50 lbs after starting it. Just pay attention to you body and what it tells you. I would also suggest talking to your dr…

Wish I could help, I hate veggies too!! I just kinda try to force myself... sometimes... lol it is tough tho!!

do you monitor the changes in your heart rate?? I think it needs to be updated as your intensity changes....with mine, when I start the timer I check my hr, about every couple minutes I check it again...I dont have one with the chest strap so I think its important that you do that...but I could be wrong, maybe someone else…

gonna bump it cuz thats a good question!!!! :happy:

I would stick with what you are doing till your body adjusts to exercising then slowly add other workouts. I know it was tough on me when I first started. I just stuck with what I could do and lil by lil I would add a different workout. I feel alot better after a workout than I did at the start!!! Good luck!!!

Thats what Ive told her but I wanted to make sure...Thanks!!!

even just protein from foods?? I dont think she is using supplements....

well she is worried because when she fills in her diary her protein is always way over.... Thanks tho, I will refer her to this post!!!

lol shes not a man... she used to be fat tho! I like her, when shes kickin *kitten*... but on one of the videos I have shes trying to talk all nice and THAT CREEPS ME OUT! Be the "Bia" that she is and I can handle it.... lol but on the other hand... I love Bob Harper!!!! Im a true biggest loser fan!

good job!!!!! :happy:

thats a good question... I experience the same thing with my son! Cant wait to hear everyones ideas!! ;o)

Awww thanks Rach!! now you are going to make me cry!!! lol Im glad to have you as a friend!! I am dealing with this as best as I can... and I dont want to mess up what progess I have made so far...I am one of those emotional eaters!! when I am stressed I want EVERYTHING!!

Wow!! congrats!! You have more patience than I do..lol I just dont know what to do anymore...I didnt have near the problems with my daughter who is now grown! Checking out my options today because Im so over it all!! Thanks again!!! Have a great day!

Thanks so much...Its pretty much a constant state of stress...dealing with a "rebellious" teenager! (thats putting it mildly) Honestly not sure how much more I can take...Ive worked so hard at my weight loss and I just know this is going to ruin it all...trying to relax, might work if he stays away!! I know that sounds…

Thanks! somethings gotta give tho!! I dont have the strength to "fight" anymore!! :indifferent:

Sounds like you need to get out your lil info packet. I recently got a Mio Motiva Petite HRM. I had to input all that info so Im sure there is a way. It actually took me a couple days to figure mine out! lol Just sit down and read first!! Mine is usually a bit higher than what MFP says and since thats only a general…

AWESOME!!!!!!!! :happy:
