Body Beast
Just ordered the Body Beast workout DVDs from Beach Body. That name makes me laugh! Anyone doing this? I can't wait to get started!

Strength DVD?
Could anyone recommend a good strength training DVD please? I've done ChaLean Extreme about a million times, and love it, but need to find something new.

P90X starting 2nd April
Hi! After much deliberating I've bought P90X and plan to start on Monday 2nd April. I know it's going to be tough so if anyone else is starting around the same time let's support each other!

Laser Eye Surgery
Not stricty about fitness, sorry, but was wondering if any of you have had laser eye surgery and what you thought about it? I've been short-sighted forever, and currently wear daily disposable contact lenses quite happily. I never wear my glasses - can't stand them! From time to time I ponder having the surgery, but have…

Shred in Feb
Anyone fancy doing JM's 30 day shred in February? I did it all the way through last March, at the beginning of my weight loss journey, and got great results. I did one of the workouts a couple of weeks ago and it was SO much harder than I remember! I reckon it's time to do it gain. Every day for 30 days, starting on…

Charlie's Net Calorie Challenge
~~~Charlie's Net Calorie Challenge~~~ ~~~Starting Monday 24 October~~~ I'm in a really supportive group for a weight loss challenge, and the "fly the world" challenge is great for keeping up the work outs, but where I really struggle is keeping to my net calorie goal. Maybe 8 of every 10 days everything is great and then I…

Bored of Tae Bo
I have finally tired of Tae Bo, after doing it for ten years! Can anyone suggest something I could try instead?

3 lbs to go: Race to the finish line anyone?
I am 3 pounds away from my ideal weight, and it's definitely getting harder to keep up the motivation. I want to finish this now and I reckon some competition could be the key. Anyone in the same boat? Fancy a race?

Calf cramps
During my teens I would routinely get woken in the night by severe cramp in my calves. Haven't had it for years, but now since my new healthy lifestyle it's returned. I'm wondering if it's because I've cut something out of my diet that my body needs, like salt for example? Does anybody know?

UK weight loss buddies?
I've been on MFP for nearly 3 months and I love it! I'm delighted with my weight loss so far - never thought I would do so well. I would love to have some more friends in the UK to support, especially if you have similar goals.

Should I get a HRM?
I'm fairly sure that the calorie burn figures given on MFP for the workouts I do are overstated. However I am losing weight at a reasonable rate at the moment, so does it matter? If my weight loss stalls I could then think about getting a heart rate monitor. What do you think?
-
Dream goal or achievable goal?
When I joined MFP I automatically set my goal as my pre-kids weight of 130lbs. Having lost 10lbs and reached the half way mark I'm wondering if I should re-assess this. I've set my goal at a hard but "achievable" level. However I'm quite pleased with how well I'm doing on MFP so shouldn't I push myself and see if I can…

30 day shred - level 3 - advice please
I've done the level 3 workout twice now, and it goes without saying, it's bloody hard! I've never had problems with my knees but the "rock star" jump she does, I think in the last cardio section, worries me. I seem to land with a real jolt. Possibly I'm just not doing it right yet. Has it given anyone problems? Should I…

Mentors
I've been using MFP in earnest for a month now and I think it's brilliant! I've made some great friends and I'm really enjoying sharing the weight loss journey with them. I have a couple of friends who are in maintenance but unfortunately they are in different time zones so don't get to converse with them in "real" time. I…

If everyone lost weight at the same time
So, theoretically, if everyone in the world all lost weight all at the same time what would happen? The weight doesn't just disappear. Presumably it gets converted into energy - kinetic? heat? So would the temperature of the planet increase? Do you reckon we've got sufficient mass on MFP to do a convincing experiment?…

Are you 40 & fit?
If you are over 40 and have succeeded in achieving fab abs (particularly after having kids) please could I see your before and after pics? How did you do it? I need role models because at the moment I'm seriously doubting it can be done - please show me it's possible!

Body Fat %
I stood on my scales this morning, and for the the first time in about 10 years set them to measure body fat percentage. It said I am 32% fat. I know this is not great, but I've no idea what I should be aiming for. Can anyone advise?

Hi Guys
I’m new to MyFitnessPal. I discovered it at the beginning of February and I’m starting to get into it. I’ve FINALLY realised where I’ve been going wrong: I eat too much food! Please forgive me for not using a real photo. I’m not embarrassed about my appearance, although obviously there is considerable room for improvement!…
