"8-Hour Diet" Plan?
Hey everyone! I was reading in my Women's Health magazine for this month, and they featured an article about the "8-Hour Diet" Plan that was founded by Men's Heath editor David Zinczecko. (After doing some research, I see that he may or may not have stole the entire idea from the LeanGains plan. I COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT…

Combining Insanity with...
Just wanted to get some opinions. I started Insanity yesterday. The Fit Test was hard, but not impossible. Today though, that was different. It was EXTREMELY hard. There were some moves I had to skip over or attempt and fail. But I pushed through and finished the entire workout. My question is this: would it be okay to…

I'm not sore... Should I switch it up?
I've been doing a combination of 30 Day Shred and C25K - about 3 days a week. The thing is - the first time I did the 30 Day Shred (well over a year ago) - I was so sore the next day I could barely walk. Now don't get me wrong - I had a very love/hate relationship with that feeling. Thing is, this time around, I'm never…

Calculating TDEE - Would this work?
Hey everyone - here's the question: Since TDEE includes your exercise calories, would this make sense - Could I calculate my TDEE at what it would be if I didn't exercise at all during the day, and used that TDEE minus 20% as my baseline calorie goal for MFP? The way I figure, then I should be safe to log/eat back (most)…

Hip pain/limping?
So about 2 weeks ago I was walking up the stairs into my kitchen (only 3 steps) when my right hip randomly gave out. I almost fell right on my face. Ever since it has been painful to walk, lay down, even apply weight to it. I've been walking with a limp for about 2 weeks and just wonder these things: 1. Should I go to the…

"Healthy" Eating vs. Eating in Moderation?
Okay - so I've read many message board quesitons and responses and a lot of the MFP members talk about eating whatever they want -as long as it is in moderation. I guess my main question is this: -Which is true - A calorie is a calorie? or Some calories are better than others? This can be so confusing! Thanks in advance…

Not new, but newly motivated...
Hey there. My name is Tiffany and I have been using MFP for about 7 months (on and off). I sucessfully went from 158.8 down to 152 in about 3-4 months, but was stuck at 152-ish for a while. I recently gained back everything I'd lost and am back up to 159. It's depressing, but I'm trying to use it as motivation to finally…
