  • i run 5 days a week..i run for about 3 to 4 miles..it varies because i just go by my fitbit..i will have a ten minute warmup..and at that point have 2k steps in..so once my warmup is done i run until i hit 10..then walk the rest..
  • yeah thats one thing i dont have...until i have extra money..what i've got now will have to do..out of 3 pairs..these are the ones i like the best for cardio..their lighter then my others..which are just my current everday sneakers and an old pair (nike shox)
  • i thought about foam rolling..but considering if i lay on that side..its when it hurts the most..so idk if foam rolling it is good or not
  • i've been getting 10k steps..with the running and nicer weather..i do 11k steps and then my mom and i go for a walk..so sometimes lately i have 14-15k steps cardio i do 5 days a week..or i've been running (i am on the treadmill i set it to 4.0mph i've bumped it up a few times but i'm still a beginning trying to get the…
  • hmm well..I rely on my Bodymedia for what i've burned in the day..but...the past year i've just been constantly breaking out from wearing it (i've had it for two years..)..and honestly I dont see where its helped me lose weight..but i'm a slow loser anyway..I wear a fitbit..i was addicted to getting my steps in at the…
  • i actually have the same issue with mine...i know the diet cream soda i can get it very fizzy..but my other attempts with other flavors..i've had to drink flat ... is the noise we are describing the one where it sounds like you pushed to long and it sounds like you broke it???
  • oh not at all!! its great that you are setting such a great example and she wants to join in! If she was school age she could of easily gotten sore from gym or recess anyway..its a great bonding time you two can have together..and as someone previously said theres way to many kids now these days that sit around in front of…
  • I lift heavy..I can burn more sometimes with heavy lifting then a cardio workout
  • i know where you are talking about..not sure what i'm suppose to be looking at specifically??
  • bodymedia...i'm not sure..i've had it since last august..and never noticed the numbers this odd
  • didnt know this was going to post gigantic..and its missing the net number which is -389
  • well trying to figure out..i've sent them an email..asked around..posted on instagram..apparently no one seems to know or know what i'm talking about..or doesnt look at their numbers... i have no idea how to even post a pic here?
  • but doesnt it subtract from how much you've eaten to have a net.. i looked on the help section and this is what it says What are Net Calories? We set your nutritional target in Net Calories which we define as: Calories Consumed (Food) - Calories Burned (Exercise) = Net Calories Edit..so if exercise does subract from…
  • hmm for weight lifting its not..so my burn for the day is low..i honestly (and still) do not know how much I burn in a day officially..and unfortunately live in a small tiny state probably doesnt have anything i can test..or i could actually afford...when doing cardio i'm okay..but just not weight lifting (which is my main…
  • ahhh what is this you speak of?? must find this
  • I have both fitbit and bodymedia..I rely on my bodymedia more..I feel like the fitbit is just a fancy pedometer...it made me move more..but nothing in regards to weight loss etc..i had the fitbit first..then bought the bodymedia and realized I was burning more then what my fitbit was telling me..then again why should…
  • generally dislike BB coaches..I do workout to their workout programs....I have bought shakeo (no its not a cure all answer to your weightloss problems like they claim)..MOST have pushed down their sales pitch ..I can post on instagram and hastag and will most likely get some sort of coach asking if i have a coach or to…
  • Mine will claim I should be burning so much..and I'm like yeah IF i worked out for maybe 2 hours plus something else...i never thought to adjust height though..I click to customize what it gives me to have a lower burn..which means they want me to eat less...Which lately has been way to low for me and I've been starving…
  • hmm i've been questioning its accuracy..I rely on my BMF over anything..including Fitbit that I still wear..to me its just a fancy pedometer..I wanted more..I wanted to know how much I was really burning in a day..which is why i bought the BMF..I've emailed them recently questioning how accurate it was for me...I've had…
  • nope..i took it for two months..replaced it with a meal..didnt see any weight change at all..I avoided it for months because I thought that even if it really was the "best meal of the day" its VERY over priced..even to ship it..and I just cannot afford that luxury.. And to be perfectly honest..I've only had the…
  • I'll say its possible..I've really buckled down in the last year to continue losing weight and havent lost ...I didnt even workout or ate as well as I do now then the 2.5 years I was on ww's and lost 55lbs.. I've spent the last year asking, researching, doing different things..so far I'm eating at maintenance and hope…
  • took me about 2.5 years..I was on ww's..for the last year Ive been using mfp and working out..still figuring it out ..and figuring out what works.. for me the hardest part is seeing the work i've done..others can see it..I still really just cant..unless I put a picture up side by side..then I'll see it..but if i go look in…
  • no my logging is just fine..i measure weight if i need it..i wouldnt say my bodymedia is faulty or isnt accurate..and by their claims its pretty accurate...i've used a HRM along with my bodymedia..currently i'm not using it and just going by what my bodymedia says..it gives me a few less then HRM..Bodymedia is pretty high…
  • still confused..according to my bodymedia AND mfp I'm at a deficit..I've ate calories ranging from 1600 to 1900 when working out..none have worked
  • well as I said I do 6 days instead of the 5..in the program they have it doubled one day..I just dont torture my body that much in one day..t25 is hard. so I stretch it to 6..which they have said is fine. they have a questionnaire for determining calorie intake its 1600 for me..its really on a guideline. If following their…
  • ah gotcha..I guess I'm considered sedentary..my job forces me to sit most of the day. I'm doing T25 so like in the phase that I'm in theres more strength so I dont feel like I'm getting enough out of it like i did in the first phase. Their 25 minutes long but its hard to figure out what minutes go where? but I just kinda…
  • just keep pressing play..I did 21 weeks of turbo fire and didnt lose a pound..i may of lost an inch or two but thats about it..and i have been searching for answers as to why i wasnt losing...i lost more inches in the first 5 weeks of t25..then TF altogether..I havent lost anything in the new phase..i've actually gained a…
  • i'm on week 3 of alpha..I did start turbo fire chalean extreme hybrid just before christmas..after I had finished turbofire..but working from home and my job..I did about a month of that before I had to really focus on all of the christmas orders I had. I wasnt sure what weights to get but even in that month I'm glad I got…
  • I didnt take the break..I just continued on..I didnt want to get so out of the groove ..especially since its kicked up a notch I wanted to be ready for it..it kicks your butt
  • thats what i thought so using my hrm isnt such a "bad" thing as it was stated...
