How to log HIIT classes?
I take a 45 minute class at the gym that is similar to body pump. But with different instructors, some days are more cardio-heavy and some days are more of a traditional "sculpt" class. If I log 45 minutes of body pump, it estimates 450 calories burned. If I log as "circuit training, general" it is 45 minutes and over 600…

New to the group, want to confirm #s and also add friends!
I've just discovered this group and I'm really excited to get started! I've been reading about this way of eating for awhile now and it makes sense to me. I did an Atkins diet last year and I lost weight for awhile but then it stopped and I gained about 10 lbs when I added carbs back in. Since January I've been doing HIIT…

Keto rash?
I seem to be the person who gets all the keto side effects (I got the flu sooo bad my first week!). :) I am hoping/assuming this means I really needed to get rid of the sugar and carbs and I'm having reactions because my body was so overloaded with them for years. So for the past 5 days or so I've had a rash on my inner…

Best ways to get more fat without too much protein?
I track my food during the week to make sure I'm doing keto right, but I'm coming out almost equal on fat and protein. I haven't lost anything since the initial water drop (I'm only 2 weeks in) but I think I am eating too much protein. What are some of your favorite meals that work best for LCHF? Usually we make meat and…

Too many veggies? Or the wrong kind?
Hi, I just started Atkins/Keto on Saturday, so this is my third full day. I'm sporadic at tracking, so I'm trying to track in the beginning to have an idea of what and how much to be eating. So far I think I'm eating too many veggies, because I can't get my net carbs down under 20. But everything I'm eating is on the…

If you were pregnant again
Hi, If you were to get pregnant again and not be finished with your weight loss goals, what would you set your food diary to? Maintain current weight? My baby is 8 months old and I have 80 lbs to lose to be at ideal weight. I lost 27 from my highest pregnancy weight. If I were to be pregnant again in the next few months, I…

How to log 30 Day Shred?
Hi, I am going to start 30 Day Shred tonight after baby goes to bed. How do you log it into MFP? Just aerobics? Or is there a better option? Thanks!

Ab exercises after c-section
What is your experience with ab exercises after a c-section? What worked best? How long did you wait to work hard on your abs? I need to work mostly on cardio right now, but I'm kind of worried about never being able to get that flat stomach (that I never had before baby but always wanted!).

Way over on sugar but under on calories?
Is the MFP sugar limit just a suggestion? I didn't use to track it in my diary, but recently added sugar and sodium. I will be at or under my calories for the day, but have blown way past sugar. And it's just from fruit. Do I need to address this to move forward with weight loss? I don't really want to give up fruit…

Ordered Turbo Fire!!
I ordered Turbo Fire today and I'm so excited for it to arrive! I had been thinking about it for a couple weeks, but reading the comments on the boards here pushed me to finally order it! I did Turbo Jam a lot last year, which helped me lose that first 50 lbs. I also do Kundalini Yoga with Ravi and Ana as it's a nice…
