There is a group on the community thread dedicated to the paleo lifestyle. I think it really is something you should consider more for a lifestyle change than an actual diet. I usually eat paleo at home, but I don't deprive myself of other foods I really enjoy outside of the home. I don't think I could live without…

I juice kale, but with stuff like apples and carrots. Also I use it in my smoothies. This morning I chopped up kale and some spinach, with blueberries, strawberries, and a banana, then topped it off with some coconut water and blended it all together. It was good!! I know there are some recipes to make kale chips, I…

I have a couple a week. I'm a university student so they are always giving out free pizza once or twice a week. I just can't resist plus its a free meal and that is one to two meals a week I don't have to buy and cook for. I'm still losing pounds and inches. It's about making the right eating and exercise choices 80% of…

I'm doing Insanity now. I'm in recovery week. I didn't lose any pounds during the first month, but I lost 3 inches off my waist, 1 inch off each thigh and 1 inch off each arm. So, in total just during month one I've lost 7 inches. I could tell before I measured I was losing inches because my 13/14 pants were getting baggin…

Because people diet to lose weight and people who fast do it for a multitude of reasons. For example I like to do occasional fasts to keep me eating my fruits and veggies, because I find after I've been off my fast for about 4 to 6 weeks naughty foods begin to become a regular part of my diet instead of my fruits and…

I say you should still do it, but go at your own pace and keep good form. Also modify moves for yourself if you can't do some of the moves. For example there is a move where your supposed to alternate jumping and kicking out your legs. Instead of jumping I just step and kick with a punch. Also, I couldn't do a pushup to…

The word "hun" drives me insane! I work as a caregiver and a lot of staff call the clients hun. I just want to slap them! If your 20 you should not be calling an 80 year old hun! Their name is Mr. or Mrs. followed by their surname, you may call a client by their first name if they say that is ok. Another is YOLO, I do not…

Wow!! Huge difference!! Great job!!

Yea so just stay in between 1835 and 2294, but always make sure to eat up to your 1835. So if you still feel hungry when you reach 1835 your still fine to eat more. Just try to stay below 2294.
-
Yea I think you should! http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ go here and plug in your info. When you calculate remember your TDEE is the most you should be eating and BMR is the least you should be eating. I always try to attain what I calculated as my deficit, so for example I eat no less than 1850 (my…

What's your age, height, weight? If your running that much I think you have your activity level set wrong. MFP always puts ppl at too low of calories, assuming that they will workout and eat back their calories. Also, most people say they are sedentary when they are not.
-
Just finished week three of Insanity!! Feel free to add me. I try and log everyday and comment on peoples statuses and progress. Also, feel free to take a look at my diary. I eat relatively clean and when I don't it doesn't take me too much over my calories set. I'm using the 20% deficit of my TDEE method so I don't log…
-
Nope, not unless you calculated it as sedentary, then on the days you do exercise I would put in my calorie burn and eat those calories back. All the other levels include exercise. I think slightly active is 1-3 times a week, and active is 3-6. If you calculated your TDEE with one of the latter two then your deficit…
-
TDEE includes exercise depending on what you set it as. Sedentary, moderatly active, active etc... So if you found ur TDEE is 2250 (which is what it would have been if it told you 1800 with a 20% deficit), Then that includes exercise and you shouldn't log your exercise and should be eating 1800 cal a day. Also, always make…
-
I never log my alcohol. I go out with my friends maybe once or twice a month, and I just go and have a blast and don't worry about calories. I feel like if I did log them, they would make me feel bad about going out and I figure there's nothing wrong with a guilt free night on the town every once in awhile and I'm not…
-
I ignore that. I don't eat the same calories everyday so I find it's useless for me. I am just trying to weigh and measure at intervals during my journey and base my changes off that.
-
I'd like to know the same thing. I've started doing this the past couple of weeks. I've found my bmr as 1600 and my TDEE at 2300 and did a 20% deficit, so I try to eat no less than 1850 cal. I've been doing insanity and I've definitely noticed that I'm getting stronger. I'm going to weigh myself after I'm done with the…

I go by the expiration date. I actually forgot I had some in the fridge and it was past the expiration date and my bf said they were fine, and I used the rest of them up and didn't get sick. Expiration dates and use by dates for best taste are just guidelines required to put on containers.
-
Great plan!! You could also get a pedometer. I bout mine at walmart for 4 bucks. That way you don't have to keep track of laps and you can keep track of all the walking you do. I go up and down my stairs a lot during the day and that really adds up on my pedometer just from walking around my house or when I'm cooking and…

It depends on how much oil you use. If I use my pam spray I don't add it, if I use TBSs of Olive oil heck yes I add it

OMG, I say get your record expunged save up some money and high tail it of there, just disappear and start a new life. This guy seems like bad news to me from everything you just said.

I would say eat something high in protein when you get home. Not sure if you eat meat or not, but eat a chicken breast or something of that sort. Your protein intake seems really low and eating protien shouldn't make you gain any weight, because your body uses protien to build muscle it doesn't get turned into fat in the…

Drink some coffee! I always poo after my morning coffee.

Have you heard of Torrid? They carry bras, I think, 38D and above, they carry A, B, and C, but you have to measurement of 38 or above. This is for regular bras, not sure if they carry sports bras, I would assume so, though.

Basicly what everyone above has said. To give an example though. If you go into the grocery store and pick up a pack of bananas not every banana weighs the same, so when you put into mfp one medium sized banana that is just an average. Everyone has a different definition of what medium might be because bananas come in many…

Well my bf and I average between 150 to just 50 a week. The 150 is usually our main shopping day of the month that is where we buy the bulk bag of apples, carrots, organic condiments, then other house stuff like toilet paper. Then the rest of the month is just filling in the gaps, we usually run out of eggs and milk…

I know this isn't exactly what your looking for, but I did the 15 day reboot on www.rebootwithjoe.com. I lost 9 lbs in 15days. The reason I did the 15 day was because its 5 days of meals with juicing, then 5 days of juicing, then 5 days of meals and juicing. When I was on the meals portion I tried to make a different meal…
