How much cardio?
Hi everyone, I was just wondering what everyone's advice is on cardio and the amount to do. I workout 6x a week. I love BodyAttack class but the max I burn from that is around 340 cals. (I know they say on average in these classes you burn 4-600, but I'm 5ft5 and 126pounds so burn less!) I never feel this is enough though…

Weight loss with junk food
I know I'm being very dumb here...but I'm just a little confused and interested about nutrition. (Before I ask this don't think I'm saying I WANT to eat junk..I eat very clean and love it..I'm never even tempted to eat a big mac or anything.) Anyway as an experiment I added onto MFP that all I ate today was KFC and…

Negative red numbers

I got my vitamin A from lettuce, carrots, cabbage, fresh squeezed juice (celery ginger carrot beetroot) ..thats all healthy..so does it matter than the number is red and in the minus figures? I assumed that anything that was red meant its bad but I still…

Change MFP settings
I know if you track online you can change the settings so you can track each meal (meal 1 2 3 etc) but is there a way you can do this on the iphone app instead of just breakfast lunch dinner snacks? I'm trying to eat smaller portions more often (As is usually reccommended!) so its difficult to track that when there's only…

confused about "sugars"
My calorie goal is 1200. I usually burn off anything from 500-800 cals 6x a week and often my "net" is only between 100-300 and sometimes in the minus numbers. I was totally naive about diet and fitness, not realisng how much more I should/can eat considering my exercise regime. Plus I read so many people saying that your…

Incline walking? Say an incline of 15 at 7.5mph. I know it burns a lot of calories but do you get the same weight loss effects as running from it?

My daily calorie goal has been set at 1200, however I work out 6 days a week (combination of cardio and weights) and burn off anything from 300-800 a day.…
