Calorie Level Calculator
Hi all, I just got 21 Day Fix and will be starting tomorrow, May 4th. From doing the calorie level calculator, my daily intake came to be 1469 calories. If I do the 30 minute workouts, my net calorie intake would be below the recommended 1200 calories per day. I'm worried that the number is too low. I've noticed in the…

Alternatives to Jillian Michaels?
Hey y'all, I love Jillian Michaels. I have 5 of her DVDS (No More Trouble Zones, Banish Fat/Boost Metabolism, Killer Buns & Thighs, 30 Day Shred, 6 Week 6 Pack) but I'm getting really tired of her. I'm starting to feel like I'm dating her. Seeing her every day, having her voice in my head...it's getting old! Are there any…

Low Carb to Break a Plateau?
So I've weighed 158 lbs since Jan 30. It's been 6 weeks since I've lost any weight. I've checked my measurements and all of that. Nothing's changed in 6 weeks. It's been really discouraging and even this week I'll admit that I've just been eating whatever I wanted because I felt like "what's the point? I'm not going to…

Shred-It with Weights results
I checked previous forum postings about "Shred It with Weights" by Jillian Michaels, but none of them talked about RESULTS! Has anyone done this program and seen success? My workout regimen right now is purely cardio (4 days of elliptical, 2 days of cycling) and I want to incorporate strength and hopefully build some lean…

50 lbs lost!
I recently reached 50 lbs lost, and am currently at 52 lbs lost. My weight loss journey started on June 13, 2011. I remember the first day I worked out, I used Turbo Jam and after 15 minutes I couldn't breathe. I wanted to give up right then, but I kept going. By the end of the summer, I was walking 3-4 miles a day and…

30 Day Slimdown to New Years -- anyone interested?
Now that I have acquired so many Jillian Michaels' DVDs, I want to do 30 Day Slimdown for the last month of the year. In August, I made a goal to be 170 by New Years. Currently, I'm fluctuating between 177-179. So I think that with some real determination and clean eating (God help me) I could reach my goal or maybe even…

30 lbs. lost, 35 to go.
I'm probably posting this more for myself than anything. I'm almost halfway to my goal and I'm just stuck here. I gain and lose the same 2-3 lbs over and over. It's frustrating, but I'm trying to appreciate how far I've come. 215 lbs 185 lbs. Thanks everyone!

NSVs run in the family...
When I got home from the summer, I was about to throw away my Power 90 videos because although Tony Horton is hot (in my opinion) he's really boring. But my mom, who had lost 40 lbs in 2010 but gained 20 back, needed to start working out again and I gave them to her as a belated birthday present (I'm a crappy daughter…

Low Sodium And/Or Low Sugar Foods/Snacks
Hi all, I'm looking for low sodium and low sugar suggestions. Every day I'm over in sodium and sugar and I think it's why I haven't lost any weight in the last 2-3 weeks. Thanks!

My first NSV
Measured myself and I've gone from a 36 to 34 inch waist, 44 to 41 inch thighs and lost an inch in each of my arms! This is a great confidence boost, since I can't really tell from looking. Just wanted to share since it's my first NSV. Thanks!

Daily cholesterol intake...
I'm drastically under in my Cholesterol, from what MFP recommends, is this something I should try to change? I try to get as close as I can to daily recommendations but cholesterol is usually way under. Yesterday, for example, I only had 10 mg (with 300 mg recommended). It's probably not something that I should try to…

Hello, MyFitnessPal
Hi all, My name is Morgan. I'm a student at Northwestern University in IL and I've been using MyFitnessPal on and off for over a year now. But I've never really looked at the website before. I started using MyFitnessPal because I'm the type of person that eats without paying attention. Especially in college, I practically…
