Recipe Ideas Please
I've started a new eating plan as of this week, under the supervision of my PT. It lasts for 4 weeks and in those 4 weeks I have a strict list of foods I can consume. Basically if it's not on the list I cant eat it. So far so good really, lots of grilled meats and salads etc but I'm trying to find a way to have meat with…

The end of Insanity! ...I did it!!
Yesterday was my last day of the Insanity workout program. I've been keeping track of my progress on my mfp blog so I though I would share the link in the forums so I can reach a wider audience and get some feed back :) So here's the the link http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/drblythe And here's one of the photos for those…

Progress and Results
I have just begun the 2nd month of Insanity so just finished my 3rd Fit Test. I recently began taking progress pic as I have real difficulty seeing changes in my body, and the pictures seem to help with that. Ii understand not everyone is comfortable putting up pictures but i thought I'd start a board for people to share…

Aches and Pain
They seem to come up quite a bit in Insanity discussions, but this is the first time I've really experienced it. Pain in my right knee has been building up for a while, and I was torn between "toughening up and pushing through" and resting. today i've finally decided to rest as i seemed to loose a lot of form during my…

30 Day Shred (and C25K) progress pictures
So yesterday I finished the 30 Day Shred, I've been taking progress pictures in-between each level and putting them on my mfp blog, I've never publicly posted progress pics before so I though doing them as a blog was a little less scary than doing a forum post. But now that i'm finished I felt like i should put them on the…

Something you LIKE about your body?
Over the last few weeks the scales have been moving up and down as it does for a lot of people on here, and i've been trying to think of ways to keep myself motivated. Now don't get me wrong, there are plenty of things I don't like about the way I look (that's why I'm here) However, the other day I was wearing shorts and…

Potassium
I've been making a pretty big effort to make sure my nutrient levels are all where they should be and am fine with Vitamin A, B and Iron (with the help of an iron supplement). However, I've noticed I never seem to get anywhere near the recommended Potassium intake. we're talking 500mg out of a recommended 3300mg!! I've…

Make your own 'Fast Food'?
I was just planning dinner and decided to make a "Nandos" chicken burger. It's simply lean chicken breast marinated in peri peri sauce with salad (and bacon if i've been good earlier in the day) and I'll either have with or without the bun, depending on how hungry I am. This got me thinking about the other healthier,…

In need of some supportive friends
Hi there, I've been using this site for a little while now, but haven't made too many friends. I'm after some friends, so when I look at my news feed I can see "so and so burned this many calories" so I then have some motivation to excersise myself. And maybe some accountability when I don't log in. I'm 24 and live in…
