PMS and Sick
Okay so I feel like crud because I'm recovering from a strep and eye infection and I'm also PMSing! LOL But I do notice something and I'm not sure if it's due to lack of exercise or diet or what have you....BUT! In the morning I'm thin looking, just as thin as when I was 122 pounds, but I was so upset when I went to the…
This is Pretty Weird
Okay, I rarely have been posting on here, although I still count calories and stuff! I always will. Confused though, I quit hardcore exercising and started to do light/medium exercise instead like walking for an hour or hip hop dancing, both are fun for me because I'm not in incredible pain and I'm doing something I love.…

My Current State - I think I need help
Let's see... I weigh 125, I'm 5'4, and I'm eating 1,400 calories a day, usually consuming a part of my exercise calories. I'm doing 30 DS everyday except Mondays and I just finished day 4 of level 2 yesterday, I'm also trying to include cardio into my exercise routine, so I'm doing 20-40 minutes of Turbo Jam on that Monday…
Question About H.I.I.T?
Supposedly it's recommended to only do a H.I.I.T workout every other day to allow your body time for rest, is that true? If so, should I only be doing 30 DS every other day? :huh:
Ever Feel Like You Didn't Earn It?
When I eat after I exercise, and let's assume that the meal has a lot of calories and I earned it through left over calories and exercise calories, I still feel like I didn't earn it and I shouldn't eat it. Does anyone else ever get that feeling? :frown:
MFP Settings Question
Ugh, I don't want to eat 1,200 calories again... Right now, I'm at 1,440. After I put I want to lose a pound a week and put 'Active' they gave 1,440 however I don't know what's considered 'Active' anymore, I typically do 30 DS and some days Turbo Jam along with the 30 DS usually going for 20-40 minutes long. I don't know…
Liquid Calories
Other than coffee with some creamer, are liquid calories usually a no-no? In what instances would you say they're fine? Are they always okay, because some people argue over the sugar content or the lack thereof.
Good Protein Sources
I'm trying to eat more protein, other than the obvious meat where else is a good source of protein?
AM I EATING ENOUGH
I'm 5'4, 128 and was recommended 1,200 calories. I've combined this with 30 DS and dance, but just recently I was told on another thread I should consume more calories. I've also recently had a plateau and I'm very confused! I know it's a bother... But thank you for the help! By the way, I'm a mesomorph if it's any help!…
I'm Getting Frustrated
Okay, so today is my ninth day on 30DS, I think I notice some results because my clothes look better and from the side I look slimmer and so do my arms...but from the front my stomach is not as toned as I expected it (my BMI is at 'Normal') I weigh 128 pounds and I'm 5'4... I feel slightly discouraged and it doesn't help…

I have NO nutrition facts
Okay, my dad is treating me to chicken burritos which he does every Saturday, the burritos at this local traditional Mexican cooking restaurant seem pretty healthy, the chicken is chopped into tiny pieces and stuffed into the burrito with nothing else but onions and cilantro, I just cannot find any nutritional facts for…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-R3GTzZU14 This song for some reason makes me want to stand up and do some working out (DON"T JUDGE ME!)... Post yours here! :flowerforyou:
Dessert?
Okay, so I love something like yogurt (usually Greek) or cereal with soy milk as my dessert, however, I usually have it after dinner and somehow feel guilty after eating it, like I committed some sort of sin. Is dessert like this okay? :bigsmile:
30 Day Shred Tips
I would love to know what you shredders out there did to be successful, how did you go about doing the tapes? Level one on one day level two on the other. See, because, I'm planning on purchasing this on iTunes and playing it on my Apple TV and I'm pretty curious. I don't think there are any guides that come with the…

You blend the ingredients together with ice crush until everything is…
Diet Please Help
Okay, so I've had little success with the eating I've been doing. I've been pretty much able to maintain my weight at the same time I cannot reach my goal and what's worse my cargo pants do not fit, which did during the summer, but then again I starved myself and hid the food. I'm eating more calories but I know the…
My burned off calories and weight gain?
Okay, first of all no rude comments! I rarely ask questions and I just want to know. So during the summer I use to eat only 1,200 calories and sometimes (and unfortunately so) less. Yes, this put me in a state of body dimorphic disorder and I was heading down the road of anorexia. Long story short, I was able to slap my…
Eating bad recently HELP
Okay, so today marks the day I quit eating a little more junky than usual. The past three days were very pressure-filled because I had a butt-load of projects and NO time for myself. So I look a little bloated now, and I gained a little on the measuring tape. I ate REALLY badly one day (but not over 3500 calories), and…
I feel like I'm eating too much
Feel free to look at my diary. --EDIT-- I feel like...full, and like there so much lists in my diary, I know it all fits, but, sometimes it looks like a lot. Plus, I'm a "nibbler", so since I document every bite I take, I look at it and feel like it's pretty hefty amount of food.
Even though I'm in my calorie range...
Okay this is a weird question... Have you ever ate within your calories (exercise included) but felt like you've eaten way too much. I do today, and feel bad...but I did eat within the calorie range, so I don't know why I feel guilty. When I used to try to lose my previous ten pounds (which I did lose) I ate very very…

Hello!
I've lost weight here before. Been some time where I needed to become serious again, however made a new account because I'm planning to be tougher with myself this time around. I have about 10-12 pounds to lose, but it's a bit harder now, because summer is over and I have school. If anyone feels the same struggle, friend…
