My Stubborn Body!
This is the second week in a row with no weight-loss, and I maybe lost 1/2 inch...maybe. I'm just venting more than anything else, but I've been eating healthy (with the exception of blowing it on Mother's Day), exercising about 5-6 days a week, staying within my calorie range, drinking water...everything that I know to…

P90X Hybrids
I'm starting a P90X/Turbo Fire hybrid tomorrow. I know that there are a couple of people who are doing P90X hybrids, but I'm just wondering if there are enough of us out there to keep a thread going. Anyone interested?

Starting P90X/Turbo Fire Hybrid in a week or so... anyone wa
I decided a few months ago that I wanted to start P90X over the summer, but I did Turbo Fire and now I love it! So I decided to do a hybrid. Is anyone interested in doing it with me?

Turbo Fire thread?
Am I missing something? I can't find a Turbo Fire thread, just a hybrid. Is there one or not??

Fourth of July tips?
Sorry if this has already been posted, but I couldn't find it. I'm going to an all day/night 4th of July party tomorrow. I can eat normal food for breakfast (and maybe lunch), but the rest of the day, we will be at a party w/ a ton of food. I'm going to do my best to not go overboard...maybe have a few bites of…

My pictures surprised me!
I was uploading some pictures last night from Memorial Day weekend and from my daughter's birthday on Saturday. I put them in my profile so you can check them out if you want. I've only lost a few pounds since then...maybe 4ish? But I've been working out for a couple of months now, and have lost inches too. I started P90X…

Mothers (no offense)
I'm a mother too, but my mother sometimes just doesn't know when to put her foot in her mouth. I stayed at her house last night. This morning, I was busy with all kinds of stuff. At one point, I stopped and made a comment about needing to eat breakfast. She said that it wasn't important to eat. I tried to explain the…

A question about fat
For the past few days, I keep going over on my stinking fat intake!! It's driving me nuts. Is it totally bad to go over in them? I have an allotment of 41 grams, which is 30% of my caloric intake. If I'm eating healthy fats, is it ever ok to be over, or should I make sure I stay under my allowance no matter what? I'm over…

Someone help w/ motivation
Ok so I know that motivation needs to come from the inside, and in theory I am motivated b/c I'm planning to workout in the near future. However, I NEED to do it today. I have skipped a day b/c of a pinched nerve along with other valid personal reasons. But now I need to get back into it, and for some reason, I can't seem…

Equipment for PX90?
My hubby is thinking about starting the program, but I'm wondering what kind of equipment that we would need. Thanks!

I seriously need help...please!
I've been doing MFP strictly for about 8 weeks. Since that time, I've lost 6 pounds and about 7 inches. I'm working out (burning between 200-500 calories) about 5-6 days a week, and I'm adding strength training to that. For the past 3 weeks, my scale hasn't moved at all (except that it went up one week by a little bit...my…

Darn Husbands!
My hubby has a really bad habit of eating like crap. Since I've been eating better and working out, he has started to come on board with me (which is great). However, last night he snuck into the kitchen. I could hear him fiddling around with something, so I asked him what he was doing. "Nothing" was his response. 5…

Giving Advice
I've been reading several posts giving people advice that it's ok to splurge a little here and there, telling them not to worry about certain events, etc. I'm interested in hearing what people have to say about this advice...especially the people who have been very successful with losing weight (and keeping it off). Here's…

Any Sprinters?
My physical trainer keeps talking about the benefits of sprinting and how in-shape they get. Does anyone have more information about sprinting, or does anyone incorporate this into their workout routine? If so, I'd love to hear more about it!

Yay!
I haven't checked my weight since Friday, so I'm not sure if I've lost anything, but as of last Friday, I had two solid weeks with no weight-loss. Granted, I have been losing some inches, but the scale hasn't moved much in a while. Anyway, despite all of that, I just went through some of my shorts to wash since it's…

Question about Logging Calories Burned....
This might be a dumb question, not sure. I know that I burn calories from strength training. I don't have a hrm yet (getting one next week, yay!). My question is: how do I figure out approximately how much I'm burning right now from strength training, and how do I log those calories burned? Right now, I'm just logging the…

Irritating Tendon...anyone have experience w/ this?
I'm not sure why this is, but when I do certain exercises (push-ups are a prime example), my tendon rubs over my right elbow and feels kind of like a "POP." It is irritating, but it only hurts if I overwork it. Does anyone have experience with this, know if there's anything that I can do to get it to stop? It's a weird…

Greek yogurt snack
I just had a snack that was so good! I combined a container of 2% Fage (Greek yogurt) with a teaspoon of sugar free raspberry preserves and some slivered almonds. Super healthy and yummy!!

Need some encouragement
Ok so the scale says I've gained a few pounds within the last few days, even though I'm staying in my calorie range, eating healthy, and getting tons of exercise. I know a few things: 1) my scale is whacky and it fluctuates more than a normal scale (although I usually can get it w/n a pound or so...not usually off by that…

Any tips to avoid eating out of boredom?
Well I think that's what it is anyway. I've done awesome today for the most part...eating healthy, making good choices, etc. But now I'm studying for finals and my mind keeps wandering to food. It's really hard not to think about food when my mind gets on it and I have to really try to refocus on studying. Any tips out…

Eating Calories from Exercise
Hi Everyone, I've been lurking here for a while, but haven't posted much yet. Anyway, I go to bootcamp twice a week now, and I'm finding it impossible to eat all of my calories from that workout. I'm burning around 600 calories, and if I try to make up for that, I get too stuffed. Tonight, for instance, I'm showing that I…
