Anyone with IBS?
I recently found out that I may be suffering from IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and that would indeed explain why I always feel bloated after a meal, small or big. Now I wonder if there's anyone else who suffers from this as well? If so, do you succeed with your weightloss although you've struggling with bloating etc? Do…

Why can't I get to my own topic?
So yesterday I started a new topic named "No need for weightloss - but body recomposition?" in the fitness and exercise forum if I remember correctly. I saw I've gotten a few responses that I'd like to read, but when I click on the link it just goes back to the main forum. I can get to every topic I've ever started, except…

Not seeing results - this close to giving up
So I've posted like a million topics about this, but I'm really in desperate need for help and advice. For the last two years I have been working out regularly, eating clean and taking care of my body. Where does it show? Nowhere!! Except that my arms have a bit more muscle in them, but nothing else. My measurements are…

Looking for advice from "all or nothing kind of people"
I'm such an all or nothing kind of girl - I either eat no sweets at all or indulge like there was no tomorrow. Honestly, I don't even know why I sometimes let myself eat the way I do since I know it won't do me any good. I can't seem to let myself have just one single cookie, I have to have like five or six or seven. "I…

Tips for helping my mom to get in shape!
So, my mom has lost quite a bit of weight thanks to a dieting program and walking, and now she wants to tone her body and of course, keep exercising for her own good. The thing is though, she doesn't want to go to the gym or join a group or something like that since she doesn't yet feel confident enough, and also she has…

Eating back calories - why? Confused!
I know this is a topic that has been discussed multiple times, but I find it easier to start a new topic myself and then go from there, hoping that someone responds with a good link or a simple answer that I could really understand. The thing is, I don't really get why you have to eat back calories you've burned by…

Les Mills Bodycombat + dieting?
Just a simple question? Anyone who's doing the Les Mills programs, such as Bodypump and Bodycombat? If so, how often and how's your eating? Are you seeing results by doing only those programs or are you doing a lot of other workouts as well? I've been doing them both once a week for a couple of months, in a group at a gym.…

Keep screwing up my eating on weekends!
I am going nuts! For the last two years I've been trying and trying to lose weight (fat), but never succeeded. During the holiday I totally fell off the wagon and te like crazy, and gained of course up to 4 kilos. These last couple of weeks I've been able to lose two of them, though, through eating clean and pretty intense…

getting started .. AGAIN
So, during the holidays I went over the limit, fell off the wagon, etc .. Now I want to get back on track and I WILL, but I just wondered if any of you could recommend some specific way to start all over again? I seriously gained like 5 kilos, and I'm not sure whether I should just try to keep on going like I did before…

macros with IIFYM
So I'm about to get back on track again after Christmas (am I the only one who gained like 4 kilos?) and I'm thinking about starting with IIFYM. The only thing I'm concerned about is the macros. How many % should come from fat, carbs and protein per day? Which group is the biggest vs the smallest? In a say 1200/1500…

IIFYM - does it work with mfp?
I'm thinking about starting with IIFYM. anyone who's doing that and can tell me about the basics? The info I found online was helpful, but I'd rather have it explained of someone who's doing it with MFP. Can you count your macros right with mfp or does it only count calories? How do you do?
-
okay to eat more calories though crossing macros limit?
When I'm counting calories, do I have to pay a lot of attention to the other macros then? Like when I have calories left to eat for but my fat calorie intake has reached its limit, can I still eat the last 200 calories of say nuts, although they contain a lot of fat and I would therefore go over the goal for fat in one day…

Ever felt that you fatloss isn't long-term?
Is there anyone who has ever felt like one day when, say, you've eaten really good and worked out and all that, and felt like the strongest person in the world, like you're really seeing a noticeable change in your body but the next day you're eating for example a bigger breakfast (still healthy and within your…

No matter what I do, I simply can't lose it
I am going nuts right now. For the last 1½ years I've been working out 5 times a week, doing cardio and strength training, tried insanity, jm 30 day shred, been counting my calories etc. My belly and my thighs are still as big as they used to be. I'm not losing any inches and I can't understand why I don't. These last…

When did you start seeing results by doing Insanity?
Hey guys, I just finished my recovery week of Insanity, and for the first time this week I was able to go through the whole workout without a single extra break! So proud! That wasn't the point though. My question to you is, when did you start seeing results by doing Insanity? Like I said, I'm done with recovery week which…

I'm really about to lose it - please help!
I am so done with myself right now! I feel like absolute crap, I haven't felt this bad in years. The last two years I've been doing really good, I haven't lost weight or even bodyfat, but I've felt how strong both my body and mind have become. I haven't eaten (or even craced) hardly any sweets or junk food and I've been…

Healthy eating on vacation
Hi! I'm going on vacation for just over a month to USA this summer. I've been able to maintain my helathy lifestyle for over a year now, but how do I do when I'm in the US? We're going to travel a lot while there, so I'm going to have to eat at a lot of different restaurants. What are the best options to look at in the…

Too much eggs and fruit?
Can you eat too many eggs in one day? I typically eat like 4-5 eggs almost every day .. Sometimes the whole egg, but sometimes only the white. Also, I eat a lot of fruits, 4-5 aday as well. There are so many discussions going on whether or not the high sugar in fruits makes fruits "bad" for you, and since I'm having so…

Results of Blogilates?
Anyone out there who has been following Cassey Ho's pilates workout-calendar? I'm starting today and I'm wondering how long it took for you to notice changes in your body? As for now, it seems like I have trouble seeing results even if I try really hard getting them .. I've done 30 DS and Insanity, and now I'm adding…

Is it okay to work out every day?
During SL, is it okay to still work out 6-7 days a week? Like walking 45 min - an hour almost every day, and follow Cassie Ho's workout-calendar with pilates every day? But only do SL three days. Will it be too much?

Walking after lifting
Is it good or bad to go for a walk right after doing SL? I've just heard that the body is burning a lot of calories after lifting weights, so I thought it'd be a good idea to take a walk afterwards to burn even more calories. Or is that just plain stupid for some reason?

Does it matter if you're inside or outside?
This is probably the most stupid question ever asked, but it's really bothering me to not know the answer! We have a small gym in a big hall next to our house, where we have a bench and weights. But since I live in Finland, we have winter atm (spring is on its way, but it takes a long time before the snow starts melting)…

HELP NEEDED!!!!!!
I'm 18 years old and I've been trying to lose weight for about 6 months now. I've cut out junk food a year ago, I drink only water and watch my food intake very closely! I've done the 30 day shred once and now I'm more than halfway through Insanity. Last summer I was running almost every day and now I'm out for a walk a…

Trouble pushing through Max Interval Circuit, Insanity?
Anyone who had some serious trouble getting through Max Interval Circuit the first day of the second month of Insanity? I did it for the first time today and it's by far the hardest workout of Insanity this far! I kept on trying to dig deeper and deeper as Shaun T would say, but it was just SO HARD! I think I rested more…

Finnish young girl's getting discouraged, needs help!
Hey everyone, I'm a 18-year old girl from Finland who needs some advice! I'm not so heavy, (58 kg/~128 lbs to 168 cm/5'6), but I've always had a huge tummy and I have no idea of how to get rid of it! I've tried Jillian Michael's 30 day shred and now I'm nearly on my second month of Insanity. I haven't been eating junk food…
