I stagger my calorie goal each day, so some days I eat exercise calories and other days I don't. I'm typically a singles player and trying doubles for the first time. I miss the calorie burn of singles play! For now I just decreased the amount of time (so I played for two hours but I only logged 60 mins) but I'm hoping a…

Thank you so much for the speedy reply! I think I will try adding the earned calories to the next day. Thanks again! :)

Me too! I am 10 weeks pregnant as well, due May 1st, and hoping to make sure I have a healthy pregnancy with healthy weight gain. It seems impossible right now since the ONLY thing that sounds good is salt and vinegar chips and skittles/jolly ranchers/candy. I occasionally get a craving for celery and ranch or carrots and…

AWESOME run! I decided to run instead of plyo, too. Feels good to throw the ipod on, watch some HGTV, and zone out while burning calories :)

Wow...chest, shoulders, tris and ab ripper is an intense night! All those pushups are killer! I'll be honest, there are some that I didnt even attempt because I KNEW I couldnt do a one-armed pushup. I like the tricep moves a lot, and can feel them burning. I also could do much more of the ab ripper than I could 30 days…

Thanks Ley2! Our daughter is a little ham :tongue: AWESOME job on the weight loss! 4lbs is a great loss, too!! Woohoooo!! I think the Recovery Week was just what I needed to get me refocused and re-excited about P90X. We had birthday parties the last 2 days and were traveling all over the state of Florida, so I didnt get…

I love everything about this response. Especially that second link. GREAT info there!

Food = Fuel. Food is not the enemy. You need to replenish the calories you burn because MFP already creates a deficit based on your goals. Simple answer: Yes, you should be eating your exercise calories. Better answer: Use the MFP search tool and type in: "700 calories a day" and read the thread that results. Or search…

My husband is bald and its hot! I MUCH prefer him without hair, than with hair. oooh, and the goatee thing is amazing :tongue:

1550, but I set my goal to 1600....and <GASP!>, I eat my exercise calories.

Ok, so its ONLY .4lbs, but its officially .4 lbs that are OFF my body! woohoo! Scale is finally going to start budging for me again :smile: I have hit my calorie goal (Net: 1500) or come super close in the last 3 days, and while I feel like I am constantly eating or planning my next meal, I am thrilled that my body is…

My husband and I just started P90X this month. I am surprised to learn that I work out harder/better when I do the DVDs alone. A) i can get them done on my time, not having to wait til he gets home from work and B) i get annoyed with his workout techniques and grunting/breathing/taking up the entire living room while I am…

I think it depends on how each activity makes you feel. Sounds like it could just be a matter of individual preference. I run on a treadmill and think its easier than running outside because I can run whatever time of day I want/can, am in the air conditioning which helps me last longer than if I was running int he Florida…

Wow...after thinking about this some more, I looked at the Reports tab here on MFP. My BMR is 1550. Turns out, in the past 30 days, I have only hit 1500 calories TWICE. Every other day has been significantly short of my 1550 goal! I am off to eat more and keep pushing play!! Feels great to have a clue about how to fix this…

Good morning everyone! I skipped Yoga last night and was planning on running, but that didnt happen. I think thats my first real "no exercise" day in a while. We are in recovery week here, so tonight is our first shot at Core Synergistics. I am a bit intimidated after my husband told me what this workout includes, but…

Hey! Actually, you should add in your exercise calories. MFP already incorporates a deficit from the settings you provided ("lose 1 lb per week? "lose 2 lbs per week?" or "lose half a pound a week?", height, weight, lifestyle, etc) So if you dont eat back your exercise calories, you are creating an even larger deficit. You…

Well, I am still not losing pounds or inches and Im not sure Im feeling stronger either. To say it is discouraging is an understatement. But Im determined to see it through, I suppose. I did Back/Chest, Plyo, arms/shoulders, Run for 60 minutes, Legs/Back, and then Ran for 60 minutes this week. I was hoping to see SOME…

Welcome Lori!! Always nice to have another stay at home mommy on board :smile: How old are your kids? Speaking of kids....I have an explanation for my low calorie burn today. Check out our FB group :)

THANK YOU for taking the time to chime in and encourage me! I needed this, especially on this Monday morning. I know its going to take all 90 days, and sorta feel cheesy for expecting results in just 14 days, but its tough to stay commited when it doesnt appear my hard work is giving me many results yet. Im not giving up!…

Ley...Im so sorry to hear abotu your son! How scary!? Is he feeling better now? Im super impressed that you commited to the Kenpo after a day like that! CONGRATS!!! Elly....8.75 inches?!?! Im not gonna lie...Im jealous! Great work!! Are you following the meal plan, too? The wall squats dont bother me as much as all the…

Evelyn, glad youre feelign better! I bet youll feel 100% tomorrow :happy: I did NOT want to work out today. My mom came and took my daughter away from some fun at the park, so I had NO excuse to skip doing Back and Legs today haha I powered through and feel GREAT now! Its so funny because the scale is BARELY moving (it…

Amen, brother!! I can totally relate! I willl never get my legs to 'swing through" gracefully. Heck, at this point I have to completely reposition myself to get my leg into runner's pose. So glad Im not alone! haha Well, I had to settle for some Kinect Boxing with my husband tonight. I told him I would wait to do yoga…

I did Plyo today and was surprised to see I burned almost 200 fewer calories than last week's plyo session. I was able to do more of the moves this week, so I thought I'd end up burning MORE calories, but I guess iI wanst getting my heart rate up as high as last week. I am realllllllllly searching for some kind of…

I live here in Orlando and our local channels have has coverage from 8:30am through the 6pm news. I was admittedly hooked on the trial and watched often. I think the State did a decent job, given the fact that they dont have hard evidence of what, exactly, happened to that poor girl. I dont think they did enough to prove…

Kenpo was intense! Loved it but hated it :love: :noway: I am down .8 lb this morning. Not that exciting, but Im glad I knew ahead of time not to expect major weight loss at first. Not disappointed. I did lose a full inch in my hips and a half inch in my chest though :) So that was sorta encouraging since it is only the…

Holy. Freaking. Kenpo. OUCHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! That workout is KILLER! I liked it but I hated it all at the same time!!! I completely get overboard at dinner last night and I paid for it during today's workout. I said I was gonna stick with healthy choices and no wine. Apparently I lied because I had rare filet, mixed veggies,…

Cheers!! Youve earned it! Enjoy!!! Oh my gosh, this is my nightmare!! :sad: i am SOOO sorry! I dont know what I would doooo! :ohwell:

Wow! you look amazing!! Great job!!! Love your outfit in the last pic, too :)

We have a great group going and would love more input! Search for "P90X - Bring it! June-Sept" or something like that. We all started in the last 4 or 5 days and so far, so good!

the dress and shoes are awesome! I think id leave some hair down (as long as the wedding isnt outdoors). It looks a lil too much like a stewardess with it all up. You look like you have great hair....show it off :) if your hair holds curl well:…
