Getting started again!
been on here a few times, would always fall into that mindset of "OH I messed up ONE day, guess I can't do it anymore", such a stupid thing. Just bought the new power 90 DVDs, really excited to start them, they won't get here till the end of the week but getting my calorie counts and meals organized until they do. So many…

back again! over 30 days now :D
So I am on those of people that fall off the wagon a lot. Whenever I got back on the wagon I would post here and ask for friends because all the others had left and then I would quit a few weeks later. I have never been on the wagon this long. I feel like it is safe to look for friends again, unless of course friends are…

Night shifters
So just finished nursing school, got my nursing license. and accepted a position at my dream hospital on night shift. How do you guys log for the 'day'? Was thinking about just changing the labels and logging in the day that I started, I wouldn't complete the 'day' until 8am the next day, but that should be fine right?…

Trouble reaching protein amount
Alright so I am the poor college student, blah, blah. I have read the threads here on cheap protein. I was thinking about supplementing those days in which I just seem to be really under my protein goal with protein powder. Like the body fortress stuff from wal-mart. I wouldn't be doing this everyday, on days I eat chicken…

I am a student nurse, only in my second semester, but by the end of the summer I want to start working for a hospital so I can start a relationship and get experience to get me that RN job later.

I did not get to 1200 calories today, and that is just eaten calories not net. Had a tetanus shot yesterday and it is making me feel like hell..... no appetite at all.

I almost didn't do it....
Today was a serious off day for me. I am on the prep schedule for Turbo Fire and today was Fire 45 EZ and Stretch 10. I thought I could do it but I just kept quitting 5 minutes in Fire 45 and restarting it, i did like that 5 or 6 times. I was so frustrated with myself! I decided to stop trying to do it for a few hours. I…

Blood Drawn
So I just got home from the doctors and they took 4 big vials of blood from me. I am supposed to do high intensity cardio today but I am wondering if it is safe to do after having all that blood drawn. I probably should have asked while I was there but I forgot :frown: Anyone know if I can or not?

Olive Garden
So I am heading to Olive Garden tonight for my 1 year with my bf. I rarely ever eat out, and it is a special occasion so I kinda don't want to stress so much about eating the most heathly thing there. But I also don't want to mess up my diet! Even though I have been really good with it. Bleh... conflicted.... And I am…

Trouble meeting calorie requirements
So MFP has me at 1,200. I eat 3 meals a day with a few snacks and I only drink water. My goals are also set to 40% carbs, 30% fat and 30% protein. Generally I get very close to meeting Carbs and Protein and I am normally at 1,100 calories for each day. It is also common for me to go over fiber by 1 or 2 points. I do not…
