P90X v. insanity v. asylum?
Which should I do? I have been interested in trying them out but don't know which I should choose. I am currently doing supersets. I left 3 times a week back/chest/triceps, then biceps and shoulders and legs and abs the other day. I also do cardio several times a week. I love lifting weights. And my fitness goals are to…
NSV I didn't expect
I was looking for a formal dress for the "dinner with the captain" evening on the cruise I will be taking with my husband. The only one I could find that I liked was a size 7/8. I took it to the fitting room expecting to be thoroughly disappointed when I tried it on. IT FIT!!!! And my husband loves it. I cannot wait to get…

Ran a 10k 58:01 for the first time in my life. Hoping to do even better on race day next Thursday.
NSV!
I am too skinny for my belt. I need to add another hole or get a new belt!
sentimental victory
I got my first diamond ring when I was 21 and I wore it everyday without taking it off for 3 years. But during my pregnancy it got too tight to fit and I took it off. It has been almost 4 years that I was unable to wear it, until today. I decided to try it on after I got out of the shower and it fit like the day I got it.…
set macros from my personal trainer
I just hired a personal trainer, something I have wanted to do for awhile now. I got my nutrition guidelines from her, but now she is gone for the weekend. My goal is to drop fat and tone up. I am supposed to eat 6 times a day 293 cals 23g protein, fat from 6 up to 12 as the day goes on and carbs drop from 25 to 15 as the…
Stress eating!!!
I need help with this. I have 3 young children and boy can they push my buttons. When then really get to me I lose it and eat junk. I know I will be mad about it later but for some reason the immediate response I have to the sugar and junk is a feel better thing. The worst part is it happens the most at the grocery store.…
NSV - Family trip to the pool
Today I took my kids to the pool for the first time since I decided to make this change in my life. Last time I wore a tank top over my bikini (I wear the bikini to make feeding my baby easier, but didn't want everyone seeing all of me). This time I was 19lbs lighter and I wore the same bikini sans tank top....and I felt…
NSV #2
Today I am wearing the size 8 jeans that have been hanging on the outside of my closet for the last 3 months as motivation!
REally more of just a question....
Question, part of me wants to change my starting weight to what it was when I first started, but that was like 6 weeks before I heard of MFP. So I have mixed feelings.I have lost 16.2lbs total, only 6.2 from my start date. I can change my start weight but not the date, I feel like it would be dishonest to have the wrong…
BFing and weightloss?
Has anyone else been trying to lose weight with diet and exercise while breastfeeding? I know that it requires an extra 300-500cal a day, but you can't really be sure how many. I talked to a nutritionist after losing 2 lbs a week for 3 weeks. She told me they don't recommend losing more than half a pound a week due to milk…
