Doctors Keep Telling Me I'm Overweight
Hi, guys. I've been on MFP for about a year and six months now. I have made some amazing progress. Last April, I weighed 200 lbs. Now, I'm between 152-160 depending on which scale I use. (I'm 5'8" with a large frame in case anyone wanted to know.) Well, every time I go to the Health Dept. to update my birth control, they…

NSV Turbo Fire
I have been struggling with Turbo Fire for the past couple of weeks. I can do the core workout like it's nothing, but the cardio sections were killing me. Every time I would try the 30 minute Fire or the 15 minute HIIT, I would have to stop half way through because I felt like I was gonna pass out. Well, today I got…

Wrapping and Exercising
Hello all. My mom was telling me about this thing she has done in the past to shed off a few more inches, and she said it was called "Wrapping." It's where they take some bandages, dip them in some kind of liquid concoction and wrap you up in the bandages. Then they have you exercise for about 30-45 minutes while you are…

Chinese Food
Okay, so there is this Chinese restaurant here in town that I haven't been to since I started this weight loss journey. I only ever eat a few things when I go there because I'm insanely picky, but the things I do eat I just love. Does anyone know anything about Chinese food and whether it's bad for you or if it's okay to…

Started 30-Day Shred Today
Wish me luck everyone. I started the Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred today. I thought I was pretty fit until I tried it today and level 1 kicked my *kitten*. I still have a long way to go, it seems. Anyway, I'll post before and after pics when I'm done.

Question about carbs
Lately I've been going 10-40 over my carb limit. Will going 10-40 carbs over my limit do any significant damage to my weight loss? Everything else is staying below the limit, but I can't seem to count my carbs as well.

Boot Camp question.
I've been doing this Crunch: Boot Camp Training workout video for a while now and I've been classifying it as "Circuit Training" in my exercise diary. However, I've been wondering lately if I'm classifying it correctly. The workout consists of hand-weight training, ab workouts, cardio, lots of push ups, and leg work. Does…

Should I exercise more?
I've been on MFP since April and I've been exercising 45 minutes a day 4 days out of the week. The other days are my rest days. It's been working pretty well so far, but I checked the scale the other day and I haven't lost any weight since my last weigh in (which was a few weeks ago). I am eating around 1200-1300 calories…

Am I going about my weight loss the wrong way?
So I've been on MPF since April of this year and I've lost (probably) over 31 lbs so far. I keep hearing stories of how women lost that much weight over the course of a year and a half. That makes me think I may be losing weight too quickly. I usually keep myself around 1200 calories a day on days that I don't exercise. On…

Crunch Training
I just got finished doing an exercise video on Netflix. It's called Crunch Boot Camp Training. If anyone one here likes really high impact workouts that don't give you time to think about stopping, I would highly suggest checking it out. It's really tough, but the workout itself is a lot of fun, and the woman leading the…

Lost my motivation
I am still watching my food intake, but I have completely lost my motivation to exercise. Every time I think about doing it, I just dread it horribly. Then I just don't do it. I'm probably not gaining any weight since I've limited myself to about 1200-1500 calories a day, but I'm definitely not getting the abs and thighs I…

I'm having a hard time
I've been on my diet for a little over two months now, and watching my fiance and everyone else who lives with me chow down on the foods I can't have anymore is really discouraging me. I'm not angry with them because none of them really need to be on a diet like I do, but it's still really hard watching them eat Sloppy…
