Over 500+ calories
Hey y'all! Looking for advice. What do you do when you go over 500+ calories one day? Do you chalk it up and just strive to do better in the future. Do you try to lower calories for future days? I'd like to hear your strategy!

Sprained Ankle?
Hi all - I sprained my ankle two Fridays ago and haven't been to OrangeTheory/gym since. I'm dying to go back as I feel like I'v been sitting on my butt this whole time. Overall, movement of my ankle is better, but it's definitely not 100%. It hurts, but nothing like it had before. Think it's okay to ease back into it?…

Track for 30 days...then lose it. How do you keep with it?
Hey y'all... I cannot figure out how to maintain this. I track for 30 days and then by that point, I slowly stop tracking and then it seems I go into a phase where I gain even more weight. I'm tracking calories to lose 1.5lbs a week, so it's not an insane cut in calories. I had been doing OTF, but then I was basically gone…

OrangeTheory vs ClassPass
Hey y'all. I'm really struggling with a decision. There is currently a special running at OTF for $149/month for unlimited classes. (I know I know...crazy expensive HOWEVER this is the only thing I've stuck with for more than 3 tries...so I'm doing what's working). However, I've also been thinking about doing ClassPass as…

HRM ... wrong weight = wrong calories burned?
Hey y'all! I've been doing OTF (OrangeTheory Fitness) and before I started I gave them a weight (with not having weighed myself in about a year). I just had the chance to weigh myself as I bought a scale and realized that I'm about 30lbs over what I told them. I'm burning 500-600 cals in a class, but I'm worried that…

Burning Calves and Treads... OrangeTheory Fitness
Hey y'all! I started doing OrangeTheoryFitness and honestly love it - despite the price! I've never been one to want to go to the gym and I usually look forward to the workout so worth the price. Right now, I'm what they consider a power walker when on the treadmill, so I'm usually doing 3.0-4.0 at a steep incline.…

Wireless scale or fitness tracker?
I'd like to buy both but want to buy one and then the other. Which would you recommend me purchasing first?

Macros? Protein? WHAT?
Hey all, I'm trying to figure out what my macros should be. Yes, there are a billion threads on this, but I'm sure someone can link@ me to an excellent post that will tell me exactly what I need to see. Do these even matter if I'm not a hardcore athlete...I'm definitely not. Currently, I'm doing 35/35/30. From what I've…

Anyone use Poshmark.com /app?
I hope this isn't breaking any rules. Have y'all heard of Poshmark.com (website & app)? It's basically where you can place items online for sale. Mostly women's designer/non-designer clothing, handbags, jewelry. I'm getting rid of some clothes and thought y'all might be interested... Especially if you're transitioning…

"You're really pretty, but...
How do you feel about the comments "You're really pretty/beautiful/gorgeous/insert nice physical compliment here, but... you could stand to lose a few pounds or something to that effect"? Does it bother you or what? Kind of random, but I'm just curious as to MFP's thoughts.

30 Day Shred Stamina After Rest Day
So, Thursday I completed my 10th day of Level 1. Super exciting (even though it was still pretty rough to get through)! I figured I would take Friday off and so I did. I wanted to do 14 days of each level so just a few minutes ago I tried doing Level 1 again and for whatever reason I couldn't get through the first few…

30 Day Shred Level Progression
I just finished Level 1 Day 7. I'm certainly feeling stronger and can tell my stamina is increasing, but it is definitely still tough to work through and I'm mostly following Anita (modified moves). I have yet to be able to do a normal pushup, although I'm getting through the first set of push-ups (on my kneees) without…

30 calories over?
Hi all! I know this probably seems silly, but I'm at the end of my day, completed Level 1 Day 2 of 30DS and logged the rest of my food. Come to see that I'm over by about 30 calories (that includes the calories I've burned). Should I go do something to burn that amount (if so, any suggestions) and if not will I still see a…

So Inspiring!
I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who have posted your success stories. I read them at the end of every day and it's really helping to motivate me. I have a looooong way to go on my own journey for hopefully weight that will be off for good and a true lifestyle change, but it's definitely making it easier seeing…
