Hey everyone! I wanted to let all you fellow veggies know that the PiYo group I'm going to be running starting on Monday is called the Plants & PiYo Project (I like alliteration, what can I say), and it's open to any vegans, vegetarians, of veg-curious folks. We're going to do the workout together as well as share recipes,…

IIFYM Help
I know this might sound silly, but is there anyone who might be willing to walk me through calorie counting using IIFYM? I know it should be straightforward, but I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. Do I count calories, or macros? Or both? And what's the best way to go about it? I honestly haven't counted calories in so long,…

3 Day Refresh
Has anyone tried this yet? It's brand new but I'm wondering if any coaches who were able to get it at Summit have done it. Curious about some real results and experiences. :)

3 Day Refresh
Anyone done it yet? Mine is supposed to come on Saturday so I'll hopefully be starting it on Monday.

Anyone else with no weight loss at first?
I'm almost finished with phase one, this is my final week of Burn, and I'm a bit disappointed to not have seen any pounds come off whatsoever. My eating is under control, stick to my calories aside from a three day mini vacation I took last week. Has anyone else found their results to come slowly with the program? I…
-
ChaLEAN Extreme friends!
I just ordered ChaLEAN Extreme and am planning on officially starting on 3/10 after I finish T25 Beta! Anyone else doing the program? I would love to hear how it's going and feel free to add me so we can support each other. :)
-
Water retention, plateau or both?
I could use some advice or opinions on the last few weeks of my journey, if anyone is willing to take a look at my diary perhaps and see what they think. :) Basically, I finished T25 about two weeks ago at 166lbs. My previous two weigh-ins before that were both stagnant at 167.5, and then I dropped another pound and a half…
-
looking for some assurance/advice
Hi everyone, I just joined the group after multiple suggestions that I consider using the TDEE-20% method as my progress with MFP has been quite slow. I've lost 10-15lbs, which I'm really happy about, but it's been over three months and I just feel like I should be seeing a bit more progress. I've been eating 1500 calories…
-
Interested in some advice/opinions :)
Hi everyone, So I'm interested in what some of you with experience have to say about my current kind-of plateau. My diary is open so feel free to take a look and yes, I am vegan and know I need to get more protein--I'm honestly working on it. :) So my issue is that I feel like I've been basically stagnant for a few weeks…
-
ChaLean Extreme with T25?
Hey everyone. I was wondering if any of y'all may be able to offer me some advice. I'm currently about to start my second week of the Beta round of T25. I really, really love it, love Shaun T and have felt myself getting much stronger and my endurance really improving. However, I've only lost about 6 pounds and a few…

The dreaded protein question
Hi everyone. I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I went back a few pages and didn't see anything so I thought it couldn't hurt to bring it up again. I was wondering if any of you lovely fellow vegans have any tips, great recipe ideas, or secret protein-packed vegan food to share. I'm finding I'm having a hard time…
-
T25 Gamma
I'm about two weeks into the Alpha round right now, but I'm already loving it so much I'm thinking about springing for Gamma, as I've heard so many great things about it. I was wondering, though, from those of you who bought it and have done it, was it worth the price? Also, what kind of extra equipment is required? Right…

Anyone had success eating exercise cals to re-start loss?
I'm in my 4th week of T25 and this week I've been doing two workouts a day (T25 and then something else) and so burning around twice as many calories as I had been. I've gone up about four pounds on the scale and am wondering if it could be because I'm not eating my exercise calories back. I know part of it is likely water…
-
How much gain is normal after adding a new workout?
Okay, let me preface this by saying I'm a daily weigh-er, and I told myself when I decided to weigh daily that I wouldn't let myself get panicked or discouraged if I saw the scale go up occasionally because it's normal. That being said, I started my 4th week of T25 today, and as of Friday/Saturday, I was down to 173 from…
-
How often do you update your HRM?
I got my Polar Ft4 a few weeks ago, I weighed 180 so that's what I entered in. Currently I'm at 173, and was just wondering how often you guys update your settings with weight loss? Obviously as you lose more weight you burn less calories, and I don't want to be overestimating my burns. I was thinking maybe every ten…

Confused about BMR/MFP's recommendation
Since I joined the site, I've been using the MFP method of eating at a deficit, logging exercise and then eating back some or all of the exercise calories. However, lately I've been reading up about the TDEE method and wondering whether this might be a better choice for me, though I'm not sure I entirely understand it.…
-
Right Shoes for Insanity/T25?
Hey everyone, so I recently saw an Instagram post from Shaun T where he said something along the lines of "remember not to wear running shoes for any of my programs!" or something like that. I was wondering if anyone knew what type of shoe he actually recommends, or what do any of you who have completed the programs…

New friendly vegan :)
Hi everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself. I've just joined and started logging my food consistently and would love any other vegan or non-vegan friends for motivation! I'm currently 185 pounds and trying to get to 150 (for now). I finished day 18 of the 30 Day Shred today and will be starting Ripped in 30 after the…
-
Final Results!
So I finished the shred yesterday and took weight and measurements this morning (got up extra early before my 6:30am flight, ugh). Just thought I would share! I didn't lose much weight at all, but I think that's partly because I didn't really start watching my calories until about halfway through, and also I just don't…
-
When did you start seeing the weight come off?
So I've been consistently logging calories (except for, I think, one missed day) for close to two weeks now and I haven't seen much change in my weight. I started at 185 and have been anywhere from 182 to back to 185 over the course of the two weeks. I know that this will be a slow process and I'm not feeling too…
-
Food scale recommendations?
I think it's time to make the jump to weighing instead of measuring when I get back from the holidays. Anyone have any that they particularly like? I'm looking for something relatively inexpensive and that won't take up too much space as my counter space is super limited already.
-
Reasons for overnight weight gain? (not calorie related)
So I was wondering what you guys thought about the reasons behind one's weight occasionally jumping up anywhere from 2-5 pounds overnight. I got on the scale this morning and had gained a few pounds despite only going over my goal by 12 calories yesterday. It's happened occasionally before and I'm not that worried about…
