Head spinning....still confused lol.

got mine friday

I have. Gives me 30 minutes and says it is 148 calories. That seems low to me. I could be wrong. It gives me less than what it gives you for double the time. Doesn't make sense. (Yes I made sure I put in 30 minutes and not 15).

Long Island. Do you do long durations then break or (example) 3 minutes then 1 min break. Then 2 mins then 3 mins, etc?

Water work outs I’ve been looking in to but no affordable place near me with open swim hours.

This may help more. I found a pic of April 2015 when I was around 184 and the 2018 is from April 2018. This would have made much sense from the beginning.

Yeah the food I am constantly watching. I am fine being at 192. I was a 42" waist when I started and I am am currently just below a 37". I am not sure what the average for a man is supposed to be, but for me this is a big difference. I have always exercised and worked out and I think it is more me trying to come to terms…

Hopefully this makes sense....today has been a rough one and tiring so it may not lol: I think it is that it makes me feel bad about not working out. I ignored the pain for a while (I am told it wouldn't have mattered if I stopped then or not), but once it became obvious I could either play with my kids OR work out, but…

No problem. Thanks.

Yeah the first pic they had changed the bulbs recently. What difference do you see?

Ah, never knew that.

Last Saturday I was 186. Today 191.5. I definitely didn’t eat enough to gain 6 pounds in a week, but each day it went up not down so would water weight/ bowls do that for an entire week?

I am weighing the morning. I should have said that earlier if that matters.

I need sleep

Is that not allowed? I didn't realize. I figured it's be better to update here then to start another thread about basically the same thing. My fault.

Just to update: January 1 I was 181.2. The weight keeps going up (this morning weight in at 190), but I also have not been "regular" in a while so I don't know if that is impacting it or not. I am always within my goal calories or at the very least maintaining weight so I doubt I would've gained 9 pounds in a month and a…

Interesting....never even thought it had any impact on weight.

I weigh myself in the mornings at the same time. Around the same time anyway lol.

I have always had issues with weight. When I was a kid I was chubby. In high school, between Junior and Senior year, I lost a lot of weight. I would play on multiple hockey teams with up to 3 games in one night 5-6 nights a week- then I would walk a lot after the third game most nights. I liked this 8 mile route I'd do and…

How is it pointless? Exercising without pain and being able to do 70 minutes on the machine without needing to stop here and there is a win to me. The discomfort was felt in the hamstrings, lower back, and gluteus.

Don't know. I've always gotten the same brand and style of sneaker when using the elliptical since they never caused me problems before. I have tried three different pairs since the discomfort started and had the same issue results.

lol. The 9 month old I was able to get my arm out no problem and she stayed a sleep. As the floor creaked a little though my 3 year old woke up asking "Is it morning? Can I play?"

I did like it, but it was more trying to get my arm out from under a sleeping 9 month old without waking her and erasing any plans I have to sleep tonight. You wouldn’t want to quote me even once if that happened.

Thanks for the replies. I think the boost is where it entered my head to ask. Haven’t had a bloated feeling like this in a while and it went right to my head as “how much damage did these two days do to my progress?”

I researched low impact exercises (as mentioned above) and I may try step aerobics. I found this: I may try doing home step aerobics 185-Pound Person If you weigh 185 pounds, you can burn about 622 calories doing step aerobics at a low intensity, or burn about 888 calories participating in high-intensity step aerobics for…

OP doesn't have much extra money with two small children, lol :smile:

does yoga burn calories? I was never sure about that.

Thank you. In high school (junior and senior year) and start of college I was 165lbs. I was heavy as a kid and then lost a lot of it. I was good until October 2004 when I hurt my knee at hockey. I was on crutches for 6 months and ballooned up. I never counted calories so I didn't realize how many I was taking in and much…

Sounds to me like he could be jealous that you're losing some weight and he hasn't gotten motivated to start trying himself.
