- Hi all! I'm just wondering if anyone who has a BMF has ever had it lock up? It's locked on double green lights. I Googled it and only found one post - they said they had to let the battery die and the…
- Hey all! For the ladies who lift heavy, do you do a specific program or design your own? I completed New Rules for Women last year and I loved the results I got, but didn't like all the exercises in t…
- Hey all! I'm just curious...I've hit my goal weight and I'm pretty happy with where I'm at. When I go to the gym, I want to be a badass - you know, the envy of others and such. When I'm away, I'm rela…
- Hey all, So often we focus on what our bodies aren't doing - take a second to focus on what is better since you started your journey. Here's mine for today: ~ Hit triple digits for my squats and deadl…

- Hey all! I am interested in trying to add Crossfit into my workouts, but don't want to join a specific Crossfit gym. Does anyone do it on their own at their regular gym or at home? TIA!
- If so, do you ever check your numbers to see if they are similar for your workouts? I just did and they don't seem to match...shouldn't they be close?
- Are there any tricks to making chicken breasts that don't dry out? I want to try snacking on them, but when we cook them, they get so dry that I can't swallow them. I was going to try crock pot, but I…
- Hey all, I am in need of MFP advice. I have hit my monthly low spot and need help. I feel like I'm running a race and just can't get to the finish line. In a nutshell: I've lost 62#, I'm 37 and I work…
- Hey all! I was planning to do the Warrior Dash, but my husband really wants to do Muddy Buddy. They are only a week apart, so I'm not sure if it's realistic to do both. What are your thoughts if you'v…
- Hi all! I'm wondering if you do a bulk cut cycle with NR? I'm trying to think ahead and since I haven't been able to eat at maintenance, was thinking it might make more sense to eat close to TDEE and …

- Hey all! I am nearing the end of Phase 1 and was thinking of doing a challenge (an experiment might be more appropriate). I have a ton of trouble eating enough (terrified of eating more), but have rea…
- Hi all! I'm looking for protein snack ideas. What makes it difficult is the fact that I have food allergies - I'm allergic to wheat, dairy, yeast, lettuce/spinach and other leafy greens. That difficul…
- Hi guys! I am in the middle of yet another moral debate about calories, so I'm wondering what calorie range you use. Do you use TDEE - 15% or do you use the range given in the book? I just realized th…
- I'm trying to get my MFP set up properly and wanted a quick opinion on the TDEE activity multiplier - I don't want to set my cals too high. I'm a middle school teacher, so I am on my feet most of the …

- Hey all! Just wondering if there are any other shorties on here that this is working for. I am having a heck of a time eating more and every time I do, I hear that little voice that says "you're short…
- I am feeling really negative today, so I am choosing to focus on the positive (and fake it till I make it!). My positive thought about all this weight loss/fitness hoopla - I pushed my body hard this …

- Hi all! My apologies in advance if this has already been asked, but I'm curious about your schedule if you are also a runner. Run after lifting? Run on non lift days? What works for you? I'm not a hig…
