Recommended video for a motivated fat chick?
Don't worry, I'm not insulting myself, I'm just a realist. I actually love myself, I'm a pretty awesome person. Ok, so here's the deal. A couple years ago, I found mfp, and I did very well and lost 42 lbs before I hit a plateau. During that plateau phase, I met someone, and although I didn't make it a conscious choice to…

Boob support for large breasted women who run
Spring is here and I'm considering adding jogging to my exercise routine. The problem is that I am very large breasted and the girls just don't like to stay in place. Surely there must be other large breasted women who run/jog that have found ways to keep the breasts from giving them black eyes. On a side note, I am not…

does cooked bacon have fewer calories?
When I look at the site's database, I always see what I consider to be such a low number for 1 slice of bacon, 42 calories. The packaging says way more (I don't have the package anymore, I live alone so I froze each slice individually to eliminate the excuse of "I have to eat it or it'll go bad"). It got me wondering, does…

First NSV worth posting about!
I've never considered myself a huge fitness enthusiast, not even back when I was thin. Today though, I had a choice between going for a walk or using the stationary bike. Normally I would choose the bike when it's evening, but it's light out and I decided I wanted to go for a walk and get some fresh air. I live on the 3rd…

Did you get a solid chocolate bunny this year?
I did. I love chocolate but I was nervous about being able to eat a chocolate bunny within reason, sooo...... I cut the end off the bag, left the chocolate in the bag, and put it in the microwave for 15 seconds, removed from microwave, kept chocolate in the bag, rolled it flat with a rolling pin, repeated the previous…

my fitness level
What should I set my fitness level to? I currently have it at sedentary because I tend to not be active (according to their examples). I'm exercising 5x a week anywhere from 18 minutes to 38 minutes depending on the day, which I have stated in my goals. I haven't lost any weight in a couple weeks so I'm wondering if I am…

what would I search in the database?
So I just did about 6 sets of different arm exercises holding cans of peas to hopefully tone down some of the flab in my upper arms, but I'm really not sure what to call what I just did. Anyone got a name for it?

stationary bike
I've been using my stationary bike regularly for about 2 weeks now. I normally do 20 minute 4x a week. I'm thinking it's time to increase the workout on it but am unsure which would be the better move, increasing the tension or adding 5 or 10 minutes. Opinions?

low impact exercises
Because of my weight I'm unable to do any exercises that are considered medium to high impact. No jumping, no running. I've been walking and I have a stationary bike, and those are great exercises, I would just like to find something else I can add into the rotation so I don't become bored. Does anyone have any low impact…

too much too soon?
I am very new to weight loss, as in so new this is the first time in my life I have ever tried to lose weight (I'm 42). Ok, well I'm not so new if I consider that I've losing and finding the same 5 pounds over and over for the past few years. Anyhow, here I am, day 10, and my scale says I've lost 6 pounds. 6 is a big deal…
