F+ sports bra recommendations please
I would love to buy a new sports bra in store, but most stores don't carry F+ in store. I did read on Lane Bryant's website about their new line, and there were many negative reviews, including the sports bra coming unzipped during the workout! I will try Macy's tomorrow, since I do like my Wacoal bra, but hoping for other…

Recommend your sports bra for F++
I've gone down one size in the band and up one size for the cup with my weight loss so far, so I need a 36G now. What all do you recommend? I need a very good, very supportive sports bra for my Zumba classes! Which one(s) give great support and where did you buy yours (store/online). Thanks!

Would you buy a used FitBit? Any other brand recs?
I know someone that is selling her FitBit One, simply because she doesn't like wearing a "bracelet". I was curious if a FitBit can be reset to start over? Would you buy used? (She isn't offering a big discount from getting a new one). Or do you have another brand you like? I like the idea of what the One tracks (incl…

Migraines
Who else suffers from migraines? I'm curious to find out what everyone does. (hoping to find something new to try) I've had migraines for a very long time; been to Dr's, Neurologists, two head CT's (clear), tried many prescriptions (mostly never worked)... I'm not good at keeping a headache diary, but I think my triggers…

Please share something positive from this week :)
More than one is fine! Mine: 1. I finally weigh less than I did when I got pregnant four years ago 2. I had a friend notice I'm losing weight 3. I'm noticing subtle differences (pants looser, muscle development, even less back fat) :) :happy dance: It's a long journey (a forever/life change) and I'm happy with these little…

Logging gym classes (cals burned)
Ok, I gotta ask - MFP shows I burned 980 cals in one hour of Zumba. As much as I know how much I sweat, and I put in a huge effort, it's hard to imagine I really burned that much.... so I manually changed it to 580. I'm not planning on eating back my cals tonight anyways. Curious on whether or not I should change it or…

Bread
Just curious: What is your favorite bread and why? What really prompted this question is - we have two different kinds of bread in the house atm. I bought "good" Multigrain bread at Costco that has 5g of fiber, 6g protein, 1.5 g fat and 140 cals per slice. My 3 year old won't eat it, so we bought "Potato" bread (not for…

How would you log this class?
60 minutes 20 - light aerobics 20 - step aerobics 20 - using light weights with movement break it down or feasible to just log it 60 minutes of aerobics? I have just been letting MFP calculate my calories burned so I don't know the accuracy either way.

List one POSITIVE thing from this week
You may list more than one, but I just wanted to promote thinking of at least one positive thing. Something that empowers you, gives you motivation, and makes you smile! :flowerforyou: For me, I'm giddy over seeing results in my arm work. I like seeing a little bicep and tricep definition showing!

Any links or info on low vitamin D?
I have really low Vitamin D (18) and its been low for awhile. My Doctor has me on a prescription. Just curious to learn more about it. I've read that low vitamin D can cause lots of problems, including low energy, so I just want to educate myself. Just not sure where to start. Thanks! PS When the weather is nice, I'm…

How to figure out your bp range for fat burning?
It's been suggested I need to be above 140 when I exercise to get my body into that fat burning mode. I remember when I had a personal trainer 4 years ago, he gave me two ranges. One range is fat burning and a higher range was (I don't remember). Can someone explain how to figure out your range or provide a link? (and…

Goal to lose 50+ lbs by Dec 2013
Hi! I'm returning to MFP to get back on track and I could definitely use some support! My FIRST goal is to lose 56 lbs by Dec 15, 2013. That's approximately 8 lbs a month x 7 months. (seems reasonable!) I'm going home for Christmas. I've been away for 3 years, so it'll be awesome to surprise family and friends. I'm married…

Where to buy plus sized fitness clothes?
I have grey sweatpants and t-shirts for winter and some long sweat shorts for warmer months. I can't wait to find some cute yoga pants and tops as I lose the weight. But, where, oh where, can I find some good bras and sports bras to support my girls? I have had large breasts since teenage years, but grew even bigger after…

How to simplify meal planning?
I have so many ideas, but I can't seem to pull things together easily. (I think I make it harder than it should be.) :) General steps?: find recipes/make a list of daily meals for a week, make a grocery list, go shopping, then it should be "easy" to pull each meal together... right? I was wondering if anyone has any links…
