No I go by the calories that mfp gave me. That's why I only ate half back. To account for the over calculation. I have a watch that tells you your heart rate when u put ur finger on it. But that's about it.

Should I do more weights in addition to the 30 day shred?

Yes I walk 12.5-13 miles in the weekend. Then occasionally I hike 11 miles

That is giving me Bmr of 1397 (87 higher than the 1310 I've been doing and tdee of 2043. I'd probably be sick if I ate that much lol. At 1310 I was trying hard to make it to that number each day.

4 lbs away is great. ???? Best wishes to you too! Glad to hear that someone else switched from WW for same reason and is doin good!

If I put sedentary then it recommends 1200. I was thinking of trying that for a while. I am a service working in a school so i do sit some but I walk a bit too. I went with lightly active since I do not site for hours once I'm home haha. Maybe the 1200 would help

I just completed the 30day shred which is circuit training with strength and plan to start ripped in 30. Should I add more strength to that? Maybe it's not enough?

I started weight watchers 6 years ago and would do it for a few months then stop because it was so hard to follow. So maybe about 6 months out of each year. This most recent time it was three months. I weigh or measure everything I eat with the exception of like nutrigrain bars and stuff like that we're the nutrition is…

Did you get it?

Hello, Here's a quick explanation of how to add a weight loss ticker to your forum signature: 1. First, click on the Apps tab, then on the "Weight Loss Tickers" link in the "Other Tools" area to reach the section of the site where you can create your ticker. 2. Follow the steps to create your ticker. They should…

I just did that to mine. Hang on

I just completed 30 day shred today. I will be posting progress pics probably tomorrow! Then starting her rippe in 30 video!

I had 800 calories remaining after working out today so i took care of 400 of them with two pop tarts lol

Mudvayne ....yes.

You gotta continue to emphasize to them why you want this an how important it is to you!

You gotta teach me how to take pictures then! Lol. Mine always seem to make me look worse than I really look!

5-6 sounds good to me.

They look good in your picture. I am one inch shorter than you and at 135. If mine look like yours in the pic on your profile I'd be happy. How much did you weight when you took profile picture?

I have two days left of 30 day shred then its time to begin ripped in 30 !

I appreciate the posts. I guess I will just have to be patient and accept that I may need to lose more on top than I want To in order to lose some in the thighs. :/. But atleast I know now its nothing I'm doing wrong.

I just came from weight watches to here in November so I probably use a lot of those words. Lol it had me doing so much wrong and falling into all the hype in their emails. But since I came here I'm learning so Much. I only wish I had sooner. I could possible already be where I want to.

So basically I have to eliminate fat off of them before they get firmer? It's weird the top section of me looks like a person who works out and the bottom looks flabby and soft. I know you can't spot train to reduce fat but will working the legs more build the muscle under the fat until I burn it or will I just build them…

Yeah I'm 5'2. Don't have a specific goal weight in mind. Just trying to look toned and athletic. :). I was aiming for 120 originally but I'm almost 100% satisfied with my arms and stomach. One the thighs look sleeker and harder I guess that's my goal weight

Anyone? Lol

5 more days of shred left. Thinking of starting ripped in 30

So wait....MFP won't bring my daily goal down as my weight comes down?

That's very reassuring. :) and congrats on 12+ months of maintenance!!!!

Thank you for all the responses. I have 10 days left of 30 day shred. After that I'd like to throw the earbuds in and just lift. I use 5 ad 8 lb weights for the video but want to do heavier ones to do some sets. Then my cardio can be outside enjoying the nice weather! :)

I know by burning calories I will keep weight off but I know I need weights to keep my body tight. But do I need circuit training to keep it tight

I'm hoping I prefer it too. Thanks for the motivation! Are you still on level 3?
