  • I've had a Vivosmart for four days now. I researched and hemmed & hawed for a month before deciding on it. My runner up was the Fitbit Charge HR. I had the Fitbit Force but found it a bit clunky to wear. I also previously had the BodyMedia armband. I found that to be a lot more accurate and comfortable but I started having…
    in Garmin Vivofit anyone? Comment by martinabaer February 2015
  • I just got my Vivosmart a few days ago and am also looking for connections. I'm not much of a runner . . . just starting a C25K program. I'm a stay-at-home mom trying to lose weight after having two kiddos. My username is BookFairy.

  • I'm due Dec 1 with a little girl. I also have a just-turned-three year old little boy. I lost about 40lbs previously with MFP, but I gained a few last holiday season then 17 lbs so far this pregnancy (at 26 weeks).

    in any dec due dates? Comment by martinabaer August 2012
  • I'm 26 weeks pregnant with my second (due Dec 1, 2012) and have gained about 17 lbs. I started MFP a few years back to help me lose weight after my first pregnancy and lost over 40 lbs, but was still overweight. I'm 5'6" and got down just under 180 lbs from a 220 starting point. Today I weighed in just over 200 lbs - a…

  • I have a Bodybugg that tracks what I burn and I've found that I (I'm 5'6" and currently weigh just under 180 lbs) burn about 160 calories for Level 1 (doing some but not all the easier version exercises) and a bit less - closer to 130 calories for Level 2 & 3. It's going to be different for each person, though, depending…
    in so what do you put in MFP for the 30 day shred? Comment by martinabaer September 2011
  • I'm in a similar boat. I've lost about 36 lbs and need to go 30 more. Mostly I just get stuck or bored, but I just recently found Health Month (www.healthmonth.com). It makes a game out of being healthy and was, for me, just the kind of motivation I needed. It's not entirely just about weight loss, but more of a holistic…

  • ROFLMAO! Oh, man! This thread has completely brightened my day! You folks are cracking me up! Okay, so I might be a teensy weensy bit sad that I've never received inappropriate/obscene messages, but I'm going to blame that on the fact that I'm married and have a toddler. . . not for other reasons. ;-)

  • I just started using tofu, myself. One thing that's rarely mentioned on the packages (as far as I can tell) and that always messed up my recipes in the past is that it helps if you dry out the tofu a bit. I drain it from the package, then slice the tofu "brick" in half or thirds long-wise so that I have some nice, flat…

  • I just got my DVD on Tuesday, so I've only finished two days and I'm definitely feeling sore. This thread is really inspiring! Keep posting and hopefully in 28 days I'll have my own fabulous photos to share! :-)
