Update on Yawing while Lifting Weights

Yawning while weight lifting. . . weird, I know.

Calories burned on P90?
Does anyone know or calculated how many calories are burned when you do the weight lifting section on P90 video? Is it dependent on the individual or is it pretty standard across the board? Thank you in advance for your input.

A little victory along the way
I am just so happy to report that I have officially lost 10lbs to date. I joined MFP in May, but didn't stick with it. I snapped out of it and refocused on August 12, 2012 and started at 270lbs. Over the weekend, I weighed myself and saw the scale at 260lbs. This is just a small short victory, and have 90 more lbs to go.…

What to do when your weight gets stuck.
I have been on MFP for a month now and I have lost 5lbs just by couting calories, leaving behind soda, and fast food. I have gone from 270 to 265, but I have seemed to be stuck on the 265 for two weeks now. Any suggestions on what I can do to shake it up a little or is this normal. Maybe I just need to be patient. I have…

Just curious if anyone knows if this program recognizes if we are on a low carb diet or calorie counting diet? Will it know this when determining weight loss?
