Help me move to TDEE
I've tried various workout routines over the last few weeks and I've finally decided on CLX. Since it is based so much on weights the results from my HRM are basically useless. For instance today was Burn 1 that I followed with P90 100 ab routine. Said I burned 540 calories. No flipping way, maybe half that at best. I plan…

P90X3 or Insanity, help me decide
I have been doing P90 and haven't worked out in a week. The same two videos over and over just got me bored out of my mind. They certainly got me worked out so the intensity was fine for my out of shape butt, it was just insanely boring doing it over and over again. Insanity would be easier from an equipment perspective as…

Need some easy ideas for side dishes
I typically eat a separate dinner from the family do to various reasons so I need some simple, quick and cheap side dishes. Coming home a throwing some fish on the forman or making some chicken is easy enough, but I need something to go with it. I am completely burned out on frozen veggies. Ideas?

Believe this calories burn number?
I just finished my first day of T25 and it gave me a 395 calorie burn for the first cardio vid. Using a polar H7 HRM with the digit app with my info input to the best of my knowledge. Just seems high for 25 minutes of working out. I am extremely out of shape and have been doing P90 for a couple weeks but go bored. This…

Chicken nutrition info?
I've boiled and shredded a bunch of chicken to stick in the fridge for various uses. My issue is finding the correct nutritional info for it. The database and web are all over the place. What's the most reliable info per ounce? It's just plain boiled chicken breast I trimmed pretty darn well of about all excess fat.

Any settings I can change or just going to estimate?
Here is my issue, I work a funny schedule. I work two weeks of days and two weeks of nights. To make matters more difficult I don't stay on a night shift schedule when on nights. I got off at 7 this morning and got up at noon. I'll go to bed between 10-12 tonight. Obviously I'm not going to eat my 1800 calories in ten…

Shredded chicken ideas
I want to be able to boil/crockpot a bunch of chicken and shred it. Then do different things during the week. Whether throw in some eggs for breakfast or different ideas for lunch dinner. Sandwich/wraps etc. Big bonus points for low sodium. I'm having a heck of a time getting my protein and I'm already using two shakes and…

v8 for veggies?
I have a heck of a time getting my veggies in. Pretty much all I drink is water and milk with my protein powder. Would a glass of low sodium V8 do the trick for lack of veggies?

Started at the bottom, Power 90.
I started at what appears to be the bottom of the DVD world, Power 90. I'm out of shape so it's right for me. I'm hitting in the neighborhood of 500 cals in 30 minutes on the cardio level 1 and around 400 on the strength. This may go down as my fitness improves but those of you doing the higher ones have my respect! By far…

I'm going insane.
My diary should be open so you can see what I've done today. I've only been doing it a week and the first couple of days I didn't enter the exercises. I'm trying to cut some weight and keep or even add some muscle. According to MFP I still need to consume 1100 calories but only have 11 grams of fat to play with. How in the…

What ratio?

I'm not looking to get huge by any means but with my frame I should be able to be cut. I want some strength! I have minimal muscle mass…

Best way to integrate HRM calories with MPF?
I'm starting a P90 style program and wanting a way to enter my calories. One option is to get a Polar and just manually enter what it says everyday. Is there another option that integrates a little better?
