I was curious too how the get your resting burn, and I found this from fitbit: https://help.fitbit.com/customer/portal/articles/898903-how-does-fitbit-know-how-many-calories-i-ve-burned-

I'm not sure on your question about the exercise registering. But fitbit and and mfp will sync throughout the day. And based on how many calories fitbit projects you will burn throughout the day, mfp will adjust its goal calorie amount for you by either adding or subtracting calories (you have to enable the negative…

I figured it out...apparently when I set it up, fitbit missed my losing per week goal and had me maintaining my weight, hence the ~500 calorie difference between mfp and fitbit

Today was my first full day using my fitbit and fitbit is telling me I has 1050 calories still to eat today and mfp is telling me I have 476. I'm going to lean towards the lower allowance for now but I hope the difference gets smaller soon. I got the fitbit so I could know really how much I needed vs a guess with activity…

booze (all sorts) and cheese. I love exploring new flavors

I am right there with you. I gained back everything I had lost over the period of a year plus some, in another year. It has taken me months of saying "I'm going to start" or starting for two days and then giving up. I am now in my third week on logging every day with the exception of my free days. I am doing my best to not…

good luck with phase 2! that's always were I fizzled out

I would def up your calories...I tried doing insanity on that low of a diet and it was awful. I had much more energy for the workouts after going up to 1700-1800 a day

i love both of those dresses! congrats :)

5'10 hovering around 200 for a couple weeks waist: 35" hips: 42"

bahahaha, love it

working out is pretty much the only thing that manages my stress levels

^I don't set an alarm if i don't have anything to get up for, end up getting up between 9am and 2 pm.... <I would like to get my PhD eventually (jr civil engineering major-geotechnical) v what is your favorite exercise?

chi-town!!!!!! (Chicago :) ) well...i currently go to school in Terre Haute IN but i'll prob be back in chicago after graduation

wow...i'm 5'10 right around 200 and looking to get around 175, i have a bigger build though

i'm currently running by myself....don't feel like i could keep up with any of the real runners i know and no one i know is looking to start either.

looking good!!

i really like the weight watchers string cheese, they have smoked flavor which i love! 50 cal/stick

buy a heart rate monitor....

my hrm usually has a lot higher vales than the machines. for example earlier this week i went 30 min on the elliptical, ~6.1 mph avg with an avg heart rate in the 170s and it said i burned 778. i am 5'10, 198lb and 20 y.o.

it is definitely possible....I have been on bc for years and have been losing. losing takes time and actual changes so don't be discouraged

sadly my professors.....although exam week just ended and finals are two mondays away.....

i'm 50/50 so far

through a mutual friend, we all went/still go to applebees every monday night

any diet coke or coke zero....(flavors included) i really hate diet sprite/sierra mist

i used to guess when i did insanity but when i finally got a heart rate monitor i found out i was way underestimating (which was partially on purpose) i personally burn about 600-800 calories for a 40 min session depending on how much effort i put it, that specific workout, etc

mine shrunk a little, went from a large D to a small D, really hoping they don't shrink any more....

college: having food available all the time and no mother to tell me not to spoil my appetite

i'm down 34 at it wasn't until recently that i've really felt different, its mostly in the way clothes fit now that i see it

i take melatonin every night, either 6 or 9 mg. it takes hours for me to fall asleep and i wake up repeatedly if i don't take it
