Let's make a daily date post so people can write what they did---since not everyone is starting W1 D1 today. I tried to do mine but my neighborhood is just TOO hilly-1 came home 1 mile into it and I will go to the gym tonight and post again tonight. I am disappointed in myself for quitting but it just wasn't going to…

Introduction
Hello, My name is Tracy and I live in Middle TN. I am 44 years old and my goal is to lose 50-75 more lbs. I have lost 25 lbs since Sept 2013. I am not following any specific diet, just counting my cals and trying to make healthy choices. I struggle with exercise-I really just don't enjoy it but I know I need to get…

C25K group-I just started

Pb2 and jelly sandwich
I read on here about PB2 and had to get some since I LOVE peanut butter but rarely have it since it's so stinking high in calories.

Honest question about lifting/deficit
I'm confused, MFP puts you in a calorie deficit to lose-and when people aren't losing everyone tell them they aren't in a calorie deficit. But I also see over and over people say lifting is the best exercise (vs cardio). Then you see people saying you can't gain muscle while being in a calorie deficit. If MFP puts you in a…

OMG Applebees Ruben!!!
First let me say I didn't think what I would be getting would be healthy or even low cal, but I had no idea a sandwich (no fries) was 980 cals, 54 grams of fat and over 5000 grams of sodium!!! I knew the butter on the bread would get me but since it didn't have cheese I thought it would come out about 500 cals! Good thing…

Bowflex
Anyone use the Bowflex and have a good routine they can share? I feel a little lost and know I'm not getting the full advantage of it. Thanks:)

HIIT + Weight question
I want to start doing HIIT on the elliptical or treadmill as my cardio workout and I want to start adding in weight training. Can I do them on the same day (weights after HIIT) or should I alternate days?
