Ive noticed that mfps calories burned are super high. I actually bought a polae heart rate monitor to give me a more accures reading. But maybe i am logging fewer calories.

I'm 5'7. I'm trying to lose 60 pounds. I want to get back to my pre babies, sexy military body....and feel better about myself and all that jazz. :tongue:

Thank you to everyone responding. Im definitely one of those type A personalities. I have no patience and i can never seem to agree with something unless its perfect, and weight loss is definitely one of those imperfect things. If i follow guidelines that say, do this and youll lose 2 pounds a week, i expect it. But 1…

I do 30 minutes of cardio and 30 mibutes of weight training every day. Except today. Today i walked 5 miles. I just can never get a straight answer to how many calories i shoukd be eating.

I just feel like I should be losing more, more quickly than I am.

I usually eat oatmeal or egg whites with toast for breakfast. Lunch is iffy because I'm in class so I come home and try to eat something healthy. And dinner is usually chicken, fish, ground turkey or extra lean ground beef with vegetables. Snacks are usually fruit or shakeology.

I do measure what I eat. That's what I don't understand. I'm eating healthy. Working out. Drinking water and eating less calories. I'm at a total loss. But thank you for your encouraging words. :smile:

Im a mother of 2 boys. 2 and a half and 10 months. I go to school full time and my husband works 2nd shift so i also have that problem. I try to get a run in before i pick up the boys from school and i take them for a long walk every night. You can add me if you like. As pathetic as it sounds i dont really have any friends…

Try connecting with a recruiter. Before i joined i was 10 pounds over weight and he helped me a lot. They will also be able to give you a mock pt test and let you know where you need to be.
