30 day shred, Level 3 question
Hi everyone! So I'm on Level 3 and just finished Day 7 today. Level 1, I gained inches and plateaued on weight. Stayed the same in Level 2 until then end when I literally lost 5 lbs in 2 days. 3 days into Level 3, that weight shot right back up and I'm still sitting at the same weight I was when I plateaued. My inches are…

Hey everyone I'm new!
Did Level 1 day 2 today. I'm a bit sore in the legs, shoulders, and abs. I'm pretty slim but am hoping this works to cut some more of that fat off. Feel free to add me :-)

I keeps bouncing between the same pound. Suggestions?
I'm eating ~1300-1400 healthy calories, do 35 min of cardio 4-5x a week and strength train. I definitely mix it up too. It's really frustrating to go up and down and up and down for the last 3 weeks. Any suggestions? Carbs are under 100 g as is, every third day I might take it to 130 to confuse my body but otherwise...I'm…

I weigh more day 2 after a binge?!
So I was excited, I got down to 139! I think I got a little carried away rewarding myself and ate 2600 calories. I stepped on the scale the next day and jumped up to 141, I was expecting that so it was okay. I had a large BM (sorry :-/ but it's relevant.) Ate only when I was hungry which ended up being ~1200 calories of…

Motivation to not...eat...everything
Hi everyone! So, my fitness goals are a bit different than everyone else's. I'm ~20-21% bf, trying to get ~14% because I'm competing in a pageant. Don't laugh! Haha, I know the stereotypes associated with pageants. Anyway, I'm USUALLY pretty good with my diet but I've been feeling incredibly burnt out. For the last 3 days…

I am so upset. 4 day binge.
I'm competing in a pageant in 13 weeks and am trying to lose 15 lbs. I've been doing so great with exercising and eating 1400 calories a day, the weight has been slowly falling off. I recently met some of the contestants which I think has messed with my brain, and has caused this pattern of self-sabotage. "I'm not as…

Exercise Motivation
Sooooo I'm sitting on my couch, exhausted from work and inevitably my low-carb diet. I'd like to go for a run but I'm just exhausted. I need some serious motivation. The fact that I hate cardio, mayyyy have something to do with it. Help? Suggestions on overcoming?

Anybody ever use a fat burner like hydroxycut?
I tried it for 1 week and stopped because my weight was plateauing, and now, even though I have the same diet of 1200 calories. My weight keeps going up...I don't know what to do. When it will stop going up and start going down? Is this normal? I've been off of it for a week and am still gaining. Suggestions? Advice?

1200 calories, gaining weight, freaking out
I was on a really great road of losing 1-2 lbs per week. I was eating 1200 calories, got my AF (weight stabilized), and finished my AF to be down again. I decided to on a fat burner under the suggestion of a friend who competes in fitness competitions. (I want to compete in one), did it for a week, felt sick, so I stopped.…
