What do you do on your C25K off days?
Just curious...I'm not in good shape, I'm trying to lose weight (I know c25k is not necessarily a weight loss plan but I'm also changing my diet for the better) and I feel like I should do cardio on my off days but don't want to push myself too hard.

Carrie Underwood deck of cards workout?
I'm curious if anyone does this and if it really burns 600 calories. The deal is you assign an exercise or part of the body to each suit in the deck (mixing cardio and lifting) and the number on the card represents reps, or minutes for cardio. I was looking around for a good calorie burn and this came up several times on…

Mom, wife, nkotb fan. :P
I have been using mfp on and off for years. This time I am trying to lose about 40 lbs..and keep it off! I'm trying to eat sensibly. It is important to me that I eat real food, not shakes or diets that don't allow carbs or things like that. If that works for you, that's fine, it's just not what I want to do. I like to…

Need a couch to 5k app that will work with netflix on ipad
Hello, My husband and I are starting a couch to 5k program. I found an app that will play my music with it, but my husband wants one that will work while he's watching netflix. I would assume any app would play the voice prompts over netflix but just wanted to make sure. Thanks :)

Pictures!
Hopefully this works this time- First pic is Christmas 2009 (I have looked the same for the past 3ish years) Second pic is from the nkotb cruise a couple weeks ago, with my favorite new kid, Joe :) This is the first solo picture I've ever gotten with any of them and I've been a fan for over 20 years. It was great to get…

Zumba for xbox 360?
I was wondering if it's good for a beginner. I have never done a zumba class and I am not coordinated at all but I was looking for something to do if I can't get to the gym. If this would not be a good choice, can you make a recommendation?

Losing the last 10 lbs.
Should I still go by what mfp wants me to do? I'm 125 and I want to be 115. I admit I don't stick to the diet very well. I'm losing hope because I really haven't lost any weight since Christmas. Do you have any tips so I can get back on track? My diary is open, but like I said, I haven't really stuck to my diet and I…

So, I really don't understand carbs.
I know this is probably a really dumb question. But how do you handle carbs? I know "bad carbs" are white pasta, white bread. But then there are good carbs, right, like whole wheat bread or unsweetened cereal, and fruits. So how do you balance your good and bad carbs? Stay away from the bad ones altogether? I love French…

Question about walking at an incline
Hi everyone, I walk on the treadmill at a 12.0 incline at 2.9 or 3 mph. I have to hold on to the top of the treadmill because it's such a steep incline. I put in my weight so it tracks my calories burned but I wonder if that's accurate because I'm not swinging my arms. Does anyone know? Thanks :)

Losing weight for the nkotb cruise!
Hi! I've been overweight for a few years now, but I finally have my motivation--I'm going on the nkotb cruise next year! My goal is to be down 20 lbs. and toned by then. I know I will lose the weight fast (I have already lost a few lbs. in the first month) but then my goal will be to keep it off and firm up a bit! If…

Thinking of quitting drinking
I don't drink a lot but I can never have 1 (it's usually 2) and then I get the munchies. Has anyone ever quit drinking and how did you do it? I feel like i need it to relax. I get very stressed. I have a young son and things are rocky with my husband lately. What are some things you do to unwind other than drinking?

Could use some more friends and support
Hi all, I started a serious weight loss journey (after a lot of half-hearted stops and starts) 3 months ago. I lost 10 lbs--I'm looking to lose at least 20 by May --and then I went through a really difficult time where I thought I wanted to leave my husband. We have had problems for a long time. A couple weeks ago I…
