hey everyone, just realized that this is where the tweeners post their challenges. I'm assuming from the feed that we are trying to make sure we are getting our water servings in for the day, as well as our veggie servings? I'm currently on a unique deployment of sorts with the Army, so maintaining fresh produce is hard,…

Doesn't matter when you eat. the body is constantly burning. Obviously your hourly caloric burn will be less at rest then it is while you're up, or standing around, or exercising. But a calorie is a calorie, eaten or burned. doesn't matter when. And the rule is always the same when you boil down to brass tacks... Calorie…

Not a wife, but I'm a soldier. Parachute rigger stationed at Fort Bragg. I see alot of unmotivated, unsupportive spouses here.... Good to see woman that want to be healthy and get out and exercise.... who support their husbands away or home! As a female in the ARMY, I respect your sacrifice! Thanks for supporting the…

One has everything you need, and a raining log, i think is called the Triathlon handbook, or Triathlon for Beginners. Little blue paper…

Revel in your strenghth and success! Brag about it here! Get motivation, and…

depends. resistance training (body or weights) will burn the same indoors or out, give or take a few if its hot out. But generally speaking cardio exercises outdoors beats indoors when it comes to treadmills, ellipticals. etc.... since they diminish the amount of energy needed to propel the body forward. Outdoors, you have…

well if you are going off the of the maxes that the MFP profile spits back out once you put in your goals and it gives you a plan, then the numbers won't line up. The algorithm assumes what the fat, carb, protien ratio will be for a given caloric intake, but in real life its almost impossible to hit all the marks exactly…

I have been struggling to break the 166 lb plateau for 2 years, I just dropped underneath it this week!!! Thanks to all the support here at MFP and to all those wondering if you'll ever break that weight loss plateau you've been sitting on........slow steady and consistent and YOU WILL. Best of luck to all! Created by…

While chances are you will gain the weight back, you can shed the five pounds in a week. The average female loses between 7-8 lbs of water weight, when first beginning a diet plan.... So what i can tell you is how to shed those five pounds of water weight, but know that once you resume a more consistent, long term…

hang in there.... the fact that you recognize a night time tendency to over eat is empowering.... for me, after keeping a food diary, with times and feelings when i would eat, i realized that my hardest time to get through was always between 3-4 in the afternoon... now i plan two mini meals around this time so that i don't…

I know that not eating is wrong, but it is very hard for me to break the cycle. I thought i'd log and ask for supprt. I feel…

MOONIN-i once read this quote posted on door in my gym, "be kind, everyone is fighting a battle". And i thought, man, that's so true... just that morning i had an argument with my mother, and i was irritated all day, and wanted to throw in my plans for the day (including exercise)... I had just come from the drugstore next…

Hello everyone! I'm really hoping that this site will help turn the corner for me. I've always felt that if i just had a better support network, i'd be successful (in a healthy way). I've struggle with disordered eating for several years, something that started with the female athlete triad....But I don't want this to be a…
