How do I get through a Weight Loss Plateau?
I started at 189 lbs and have lost 13 lbs now weighing 176 lbs. I have been stuck at 176 lbs for two weeks now. Next week will be going on 3 weeks. I even exercised more intensely adding a couple of HIIT days in and cleaned up my diet even more than it already was, but still no loss. My calorie limit to lose 1 lb a week is…

HIIT Training & Shorter Workouts...
I do cardio 5 days a week. Four days I do 20 minutes before and after my strength training and I try to do two of those as HIIT workouts. Then I spend one day devoted to cardio for 1 hour straight mixing it up with treadmill, arc and elliptical. Everything I read says the shorter workouts are better, especially the HIIT…

Doing my own C25K this time around.
I just turned 49! I tried a running program with Fleet Feet Sports in 2012 but had to quit after getting an ankle stress fracture. Now, almost 2 years later I am trying to run again. This time on my own and in my own time at my own pace, so hopefully, no injuries this time around. I'm running on a dirt & gravel greenway so…

Has anyone lost weight by walking?
Just wondering if any of you have lost any weight by walking? How much have you lost? How long, how far and how many days a week did you walk? I am walking 3-5 days a week mixed with short and longer walks. I am also keeping my daily calories under 1488. And I'm hoping and praying I lose some weight. Right now, I have lost…

Power 90, Day 3 Sweat/Abs Done!
Power 90, Day 3 Sweat/Abs done! It's so true, although I was very sore, it eased up some as I did the workout. I had to use modifications, especially the beginning with lifting the legs. I do pretty good with the boxing/kickboxing. Only thing is, I couldn't do the yoga. I tried, but just can't hold up the weight of my body…

Power 90 Day 1 Cardio/Abs Done!
Power 90® Day 1 Cardio/Abs DONE! Omg it was so hard, especially the yoga. I'm so outta shape, it's not funny! Most of the routine I could follow using the modifications, but could only do bits & pieces of the yoga, that was HARD...was murder! The hardest part of the cardio was the first part, kicking up your knees was…

Can anyone honestly tell me about P90?
I have read reviews after reviews...probably 30 and about 28 of them are all positive and say it really works. I'm seriously thinking about ordering the P90, but just want to make sure it's for real. I tried a Couch to 5K program last fall, but had to quit midway through due to an ankle stress fracture. I'm about 40-45…

I HATE fish, chicken breasts and hate whole grains...nasty!
I know I'll probably get reamed from this, but it's me! I'm not you! You know what sucks? I HATE fish, chicken breasts, not big on turkey either and hate whole grains...all nasty! I LOVE red meat and pork chops/ribs...always tastes great, always enjoy it. So how am I to eat healthy when I'm like this. And yes, I've tried…

My sugar intake limit is too low!
I go over my sugar intake almost every day. It's too low, it's like 27 grams. I can drink a cup of coffee and have my green smoothie and it goes over already. Although most of the sugar is coming from my green smoothie and there's nothing in there but fruits...mango, banana, pineapple and spinach.

It's extremely hard to eat healthy when your hubby doesn't.
My little rant. Take this morning for instance. I usually have a green smoothie for breakfast, but hubby wants buttermilk pancakes, so I'm cooking pancakes. I can't fix pancakes and not eat one, it's just too hard. I don't have that kind of will power, at least not yet. So oh well, all I know is I'll just have to try to…

Frustrated because I stay hungry
I stay hungry, I don't know what to do to feel full. I had a green smoothie for breakfast along with two hard boiled eggs, then for lunch I had a peanut butter & jelly sandwich. For snacks in between both, I had like 15 Special K Cracker Chips and 6 Tricuits. Thank god it's almost dinner time because I feel so hungry, but…

Walking to lose weight?
Does anyone here walk to lose weight. I've always heard it's great for losing weight. I plan to try to ease back into running some, but just walking for now. I'm coming off an ankle stress fracture injury last fall due to a Couch to 5K running program I was in. I had to quit 8 weeks into it. I was doing so well and had…

What and How to Eat Healthy?
I don't see anywhere on MyFitnessPal where it suggests things you can eat. I don't really know how to eat well, especially on a tight budget and I am not a talented cook. I need help with eating.

New here, from VA ...overweight & feel bad all the time.
I'm from Southwest VA! I will be 48 on April 30th and I find it very, very hard to lose weight, not to mention the fact that I have almost no motivation and feel bad most of the time. I'm having such a hard time getting started. Just the thought of exercising regularly and eating clean depresses and overwhelms me. I could…
