Hypothyroid and FRUSTRATED!!
Hi all! I'm 46, and was diagnosed hypothyroid roughly 5-6 years ago. As this goes on, I find it harder and harder to eat healthy. I'm constantly hungry, tired, major brain fog, moody/depressed at times, the list goes on. I've been able to lose weight once since the diagnosis, but ended up gaining almost all of it back. I…

Looking for a good calorie monitor
I do a boot camp 3 x per week and have used the "Mio" watch type cal monitor. It seemed to work ok at first, but then I noticed it would stop tracking for a while (I'd look down, see the cals and 10 min later in my workout it would read the exact # again). Most people in my class are seeing between 900-1100 cals burned.…

I'm back and tracking regularly again and would love to buddy up with current users who would like a motivation buddy themselves! About me - 42, 3 kids, work a lot and travel for work several…

Day 1 - FIt Test
I may be a day ahead, or a day behind everyone. I did my fit test yesterday. I got through it all, and scores were not too bad in my opinion. I did feel pretty wiped out and a little nauseous for about 15-20 minutes afterwards, but got over it. Here are my stats: Switch Kicks - 42 Power Jacks - 38 Power Knees - 63 Power…

Day 2 - Plyometric Cardio Circuit
Done on 7/31. Today I was a little sore (calves and hip flexors), and was a little scared of this new workout. The total time was something like 43 minutes, and I'm used to a 1 hour boot camp, but figured it would be much harder. I have to say I'm pretty impressed with myself as I got through about 65% of it without…

What do you do when you get off track?
I started this journey in mid March, and so far have lost about 15 lbs (lost about 5-6 before signing up for MFP). I was on a roll, up until the middle of May when my life got super crazy hectic. My daughter graduated HS, my fiance moved in, got my daughter off to another state for college, and I got married. Of course,…

Somewhat new, looking for motivation buddies!
Hi! I've been tracking for a few weeks now, most days doing well, some days not so much. Would love to find some friends for some mutual motivation! I'm 41, need to lose about 30 lbs, and finally got myself back on track earlier this month. I've lost about 5-6 lbs so far.
