a couple of questions regarding this... 1. do you think it matters which BF calculator you use? I have done both the military one and the other one (on the F2F link) and there is a 5% swing between the two for me (non-military being lower). 2. I have been reading these threads for the last week or two and have been…

I'm right there with you, too. 5'1.5", want to lose 5lbs and struggle to lose it and then when I do, it comes back on so quickly. I feel like if I stray even the tiniest little bit, I'm screwed! I'm on a recovery break from p90x right now so I'm doing yoga and running this week and next, but I'm going to try to net 1500…

JKB - just wanted to report that the Athlete's Yoga dvd that I referenced above is not really what I was looking for. It is not really conducive for an actual yoga workout because it is segmented. So if you go with the preset 45 minute workout, it is really made up of several of the individual segments, which really kind…

try focusing on breathing in through your nose, out through your mouth (like previous poster said) and doing so with your diaphragm... so your stomach is moving, not your chest. I typically have a pretty high heart rate when I'm running and I find if I really concentrate and focus on my breathing I feel its a little easier…

My favorite is Girards Lite Champagne dressing. It is 60 calories for 2 TBLS and is amazing!

we''ve been doing green smoothies for a while and I LOVE them! I agree with the poster who said that Kale is a pain to blend - somehow it never blends as well as any of my other greens. My favorite recipe: 1c. spinach (I use fresh) 5 frozen strawberries 1/2 mango 1/2c. frozen raspberries juice of 1/2 of a lemon. Tastes…

Right... I bought mine simply because I wanted to pay attention to my heart rate and was disappointed to find out it didn't also calculate calories burned, so I found this website: http://www.braydenwm.com/calburn.htm and i plug my average HR number and length of workout into that to find my calories burned. My husband's…

stick with it. I hated running, too, but decided I wanted to be "a runner" and just gutted through my runs even though I hated them. After a while I figured out that I didn't hate running anymore. Then after another while, I figured out that I loved it. Just stick with it!!!

I bought mine and my husband's on kohls.com. Both are Timex and have the chest strap. Mine doesn't calculate calories burned, his does. Mine was around $45, his was around $55. However, you can use all kinds of discount codes to get them cheaper. I think I ended up paying around $30 for mine and $40 for his after discount…

Thank you for this! I'm really hoping this is the answer, because I am SOOOOOOO sick of working harder than anyone I know, being more disciplined with my eating (at 1200 cal/day) than anyone I know and losing MAYbe .5 lbs a week. I'm short (5'1.5" / 126 lbs) and I just figured that I was doomed to eat 2 lettuce leaves a…

Does your HRM give you an average of your HR over the time of your workout? If so, you could check it against this website: http://www.braydenwm.com/calburn.htm I use that website to calculate my calories because I don't have an HRM that gives me calories burned - just my average HR over the length of my workout (I start…

I use this website to calculate my calories burned during my workout: http://www.braydenwm.com/calburn.htm I have an inexpensive HRM, too, and it only calculates my average HR during my workout (if I turn it on and off). My husband has a HRM that calculates his calories burned, but it is usually slightly higher than what…

I've been looking for something similar for a few weeks. I've looked at so many different Yoga Dvd's on amazon... I was initially going to buy Bob Harper's Yoga for the Warrior, but the reviews made me rethink that. I finally came upon this one: The Athlete's Guide to Yoga: A Personalized Practice for Strength,…

Is there a way to see your weekly deficits or are you just manually adding up your daily deficits?

bump - would love to hear from more people about their experience with this. Thanks!

Hey all! This has been an interesting thread to read - so happy to see people my size, lol! I always tell my husband that I'm screwed because I'm short, so I basically get to eat 1 lettuce leaf a day. Anyway, I'm 5'1.5" and currently weigh between 124-126. My goal is to be closer to 120. I am currently eating 1200 calories…
