Why am I gaining weight!
So last Monday I started seeing a personal trainer and weighed in at 153 so far I have only met with her twice but went to a spin class and did some HIIT training a couple times this past weekend. I weighted myself this morning and weighed 158! Why am I gaining so much weight so quickly???? I don't feel like I am eating…

Community Weight Loss Support Group
Hey! I am wanting to start a community weight loss support group where I live. We used to have Weight Watchers which I personally had a lot of success with but recently they canceled the meetings. So I want to do something similar. Preferably free or of little charge (if we need it to pay for activities/incentive kind of…

Jullian Michaels Body Revolution
I just bought this today and was wondering if anyone has tried it or is about to start also. I'm really looking forward to starting it on Monday! One question that I do have for those who have started it: Did you find it to be challenging enough? I'm not a fitness expert or anything but i'm also not a beginner.

Insanity in the dorm!
I just wanted to share because I am really freaking excited about this! I like in the dorms and I am starting insanity and I know there are quite a few people on my floor as well as on other floors who are wanting to start it also. I got to a fairly small college and the dorms don't have a lot of space except for the…

Sprinting
Anyone have a good sprinting workout? I just started this one: Stand on the sides of the treadmill, turn up to 9mph, jump on and sprint for 20 sec, just off for 10, repeat I love doing interval training on the treadmill rather than just running. Im interested in what other people do so I can mix it up every once in a while.

measuring body fat
How does everyone measure body fat? Computer? Caterpillar? special scale (If so what brand and how do you like it)? I am just curious, I got mine taken today while I was at the Chiropractor.

Its not coming off!
I am 5'4" and weigh 160 lbs (most people are suprised when I tell them I weight that much). For the past few months I have been working out in the gym at my uni but probably not eating the best. Since I have been home for break I have been eating a lot better and working out. I give myself a little over 1500 calories every…

So many calories!!
I normally try to eat all of my calories but I dont know what was with me today. I watched a documentary last night and I think it got me a little paranoid. I still have over 800 calories left! I give myself 1510 everyday and burned around 350 working out. I am not hungry right now but do I go ahead and eat something to…

Wanting to help my community
So I am really getting into this healthy eating and diet stuff and I would really like to do some kind of program for free(or a small fee) to help those in my community. I live in a very small town so their are not many resources for those who want some help and I feel like Weight Watchers is getting too expensive (like…

I really like and am and ready to get back on track as soon as we go back to school (gym is closed for the entire month that school isn't in session). We made this schedule during thanksgiving and have been doing it…

Im Obese?!?!
I did the Military Fat Calculator on Fat 2 Fit Radio which seems to be what everyone is suggesting. It says that my body fat % is 34.2 which is very overweight to Obese on some scales. This seems crazy to me! I know I need to loose a little extra weight but I would never consider myself obese. Could this be wrong or am I…

Iced Tea vs. Water?
They say that caffeine helps keep your metabolism up so if someone were to drink iced tea through out the day rather that water would this help in weight loss? I am just curious as to what everyone's opinion would be. Has anyone tried this?

too much protein?
Is it that big of a deal to eat too much protein? My protein limit on MFP is 57g and so far today I have eaten about 112. Is this a problem? Lately I have mostly been running, yoga, and Jillian Micheal DVD's so no weight lifting (which I do while I am at college).

Periods of not wanting to eat
So I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I go through periods that I don't want to eat. Not like "I want to loose weight so Im not going to eat," kind of thing but where I will be starving and roaming the kitchen and nothing sounds good. You can only look in the fridge so many times before just giving up.…
