I know that there are sweatproof ones out there, but my plain ol' in the ear skull candy ones have held up really well for me. they stay in perfectly and haven't shorted out or anything (and I get preeeeetty gross on my elliptical....). I used to use some in-ear sony ones that worked well too but they didn't last as long…

here's the link to buy it from your computer and have it auto-install in your phone (so long as you're logged into your google account linked to your phone): https://market.android.com/details?id=com.endomondo.android.pro I LOVE endomondo and I'm on runkeeper, fleetly, fitocracy, have tried sportypal, and tons others and…

I love my janome (I have the tb-30, ADORE IT), and they make kenmores, too, so as far as buying new, I think those brands (along with brother) are going to be your best best in your price range. overstock.com has refurbished versions of machines by those brands for a steal as well, so check them out! my mom got her brother…

I know calorie calculators aren't perfect, but it could help you get a good idea? http://www.superskinnyme.com/calorie-calculator.html is one. you can maybe compare that to what MFP gives you for maintaining and use those numbers to get a good idea of where to start? I do like the idea of slowly increasing as well, though.

I've heard good things about PB2 (it's a powder, and when adding water it does compress so it's better to use to flavor than to make a paste for peanut butter) and Better'n Peanut Butter is apparently a good substitute for things that actually need the peanut butter texture. I know a lot of the healthy/natural ones use…

I have a maaaaajor pinterest addiction. so here's mine: http://pinterest.com/merryfaith/

DANG GIRL GET IT! seriously though, good work :)

I am SO behind on this challenge, and I'm at 447 total for the month so far. I'd have to exercise more than 50 minutes a day for the rest of the month to catch up. yikessss. but it's still more than I worked out last month so woo? yes.

27 minutes today! 11 of cardio and 26 of 30 day shred! added it to the google docs spreadsheet too (of course!)

25 min of 30 day shred!! I updated the spreadsheet too.

also, here is a link to that thread that doesn't default to the new post page: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/382028-1000-minutes-in-november

hey guys, I tried to give the heads up that we weren't using this thread anymore earlier but I don't know if the memo caught on, so to reiterate and repeat: "MOVING/MERGING THREADS! because molly's is getting way more replies, sorry guys. GO HERE: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/post/new/382028-1000-minutes-in-november and add…

48 minutes of elliptical today (adding to my spreadsheet totals!). today was gonna be an off day but then stress and bad bad bad food happened and this was damage control.

11/2--23 minutes on wii fit. did the hoola hooping, the advanced step, and a short run. 11/3--nothin'. 11/4--61 minutes of elliptical! woo! I've added my min to the spreadsheet, too.

also, I don't know if you can edit your very first post, but if so, maybe link to the spreadsheet in there so newcomers can find it easily? and if you want to link to the fleetly and endomondo groups you can (though the fleetly one is kind of not working until one of the admins can change it to include all exercise instead…

molly you are doing an awesome job with this challenge! thank you for including strength training :) though if some people want to go all cardio they can, I may try to do more than I thought I would these weeks when we don't have family in town. and I'll bookmark the google docs spreadsheet too!

molly, would it be easier to make a google doc speadsheet where we can log our own progress?

yours is getting waaaay more replies, so I'm telling everyone in my thread (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/post/new/382028-1000-minutes-in-november) to come here! peeps! feel free to add this to your sig if you are like me and just aren't a ticker person. also, if you want to join the challenges on endomondo and/or fleetly.…

I eat oatmeal and cereal, so it's not the best breakfast, but I do notice I'm less hungry if I remember to at least eat those than to skip it. I do love making fried eggs when I have time. I do fry them in butter (I need to try in EVOO next time, though), and eat the yolk but mmm. and they have protein. and taste really…

you can make a meal category for them too--I have a vitamins one. I was just debating no longer logging them because I've been over just by 15-30 calories on days and I would've been under had I not logged my fish oil pills. then again, I like how it helps track my vitamins and reminds me to take them. also--quick add:…

yay! we have quite a few people in it looks like! happy first day, everyone! and if anyone does want to use this in their signature, feel free to:

wherever you want to, basically. you can use this thread if you don't want to join endomondo or fleetly just for this, or you can use those sites, if you'd like. if you joined fleetly, they don't do challenges by minutes but by points, so you kind of are keeping track of it yourself, but it does too, just not for the…

I understand that there is a serious discussion and a lot of issues being brought up here, especially regarding celebrity culture, fame, role models, marriage, and morals. And I'm sorry to interrupt. However, I just wanted to point out that having both the dollar sign ($) in front of "10 million dollar" as well as the word…

just did!

you can do it! I do mainly elliptical workouts (LOVE my elliptical!) so I'm going to try to go for an hour on it if I can (been working up to that) and also start doing some strength training. I always save the workouts from health magazines and even have a fitness board on pinterest with a bunch on there, but I always…

bumping cause we start tomorrow! anyone else want to burn off that halloween candy? I wasn't expecting to eat as much at my school's celebration as I actually did. whoops.

if that's you in your profile pic, then DANG GIRL! you look amazing!

I'm 5'2" and want to get down to 110-113 (from 127), though I may try for 110. I'm ok with where I am now too (115), I just would love to tone up my stomach. but it's really impossible to lose weight from only one area, and my fat goes right on my tummy.

nah bill, you don't, though I'm always down for more MFP friends! I'd recommend adding it to your favorites, cause it'll show on your profile if it's one of the last 2 threads you posted in, but you're probably going to post in more throughout the month! thanks for joining! :)
