Activity Level?
Hi all! I've been eating about 1850 calories a day due to my activity level for the past 4 weeks. Some days I eat more, some days I eat less. I just try to have it averaged out by the end of the week. I just wanted to get you guys' opinion towards my activity level to see if I'm following the guidelines properly... I do…

Calorie Budgets/Nutrition During Insanity
Out of curiosity, (and to compare and contrast) I'd like to know what sort of nutrition path you guys will be following during the Insanity program. As for me, being that I'm 5'1'', 145lbs and want to lose 25lbs, I am more than likely going to stick to a 1300-1400 calorie budget and a 1600 max on workout days. I will…

Starting Insanity Mon. July 2nd
Hello!! I'm starting Insanity on Monday, July 2nd with my boyfriend. Would anyone like to start it with me?? I don't know how long my boyfriend would be able to keep up with it as he is not fond of cardio at all but I'd love to have some buddies to help keep me motivated and vice versa. Any takers?? :) We could form a…

Confused about calorie intake, help please??
I'm so confused as to what to do about my calories!! I haven't been able to lose much when I eat 1200-1300 cals. If I super strictly stick to that every day I lose around .2 to .5lbs a week. However, I keep reading about eating more cals all over the forums. I'm super afraid of eating more calories on purpose. I do eat…

MFP Goals or TDEE?
I would just like to hear your opinions about this and possibly what's worked best for you. I went from 180lbs to the 145lbs that I am now. I did get down to 129lbs in 2010 but regained 10-15lbs after that... and have pretty much hovered around 140-145lbs for almost a year. Of course this has also been due to some poor…

March Challenge Anyone?
I would love to have a challenge for the month of March. I normally weight train at the gym because I love the feeling! However, I hate doing cardio, but I know that I need to do it so... I'd love to do a challenge and have people keep me accountable. I'd love to help others be accountable as well. So, I was thinking we…

For runners!! What has running done for you?
I would like to pick up running again, on the treadmill for now, until it gets warmer. When I was at my lowest weight I did it through running almost every day. It's such a great workout for the entire body! So I'm curious, what has running done for you? Did it help you lose weight? Lose body fat? Tone up? How has it…

How to lose more weight when you are already comfortable?
So I'm not new at all to this weight loss game. I've lost 40lbs, but over the course of 2 years. I'm 5'1'', started at 180lbs, I'm down to 140lbs. I've gone down to 129lbs, went to Europe, etc, gained 11lbs back and I've pretty much maintained the 140lbs for about a year now. Now... while I am 5'1'', I have an hourglass…

Heart Rate Monitor
So I'm looking into getting a heart rate monitor. I'm looking for a relatively cheap one but I do want to get something that works and is as accurate as possible. What kind of heart rate monitors do you guys have? How do you like them?

Before and For Now?
I've never really thought of myself having a "before" and "after" yet since I'm not at my goal still (I have about 20lbs to go) but as I was going through my pictures tonight I realized I kinda have changed! Here's my "before" at about 175-180lbs (I'm 5'1'') I'm the one in the dark blue shirt.…
