In 5 weeks I'll weigh what??
Hello all, I'm not new to this. I enjoy posting my food so I can get an idea of how much I'm eating. After I'm done logging for the day it tells you that if you continue to eat like this you'll weigh xxx in 5 weeks. I've never hit this number. I have come close. Has anyone ever actually reached the number they claim for…

Monitor help and suggestions
Hi gang, So I want to get some type of monitor to track my progress but i'm not sure what to get. I really like fitbit one and fitbit zip. I also know of friends who use a polar heart rate monitor and the garmin forerunner 10. I'm just curious to know what others are using and could recommend. Thanks. :-)

what exactly are dead lifts??
Hi, I'm sorry if I sound stupid but how do u do dead lifts? I've heard different things- you have weights on the floor, you pick them up to your waist, raise them over your head, back to waist, and then to the floor. I've also heard someone say that you just stand bent over with weights in your hand and you pull them back.…

Why are my hips still big?
Hello, So we all know there is no such thing as spot reducing, but it's taken 5 months just to lose 1 inch in my hips. I find this to be very frustrating, but i'm not sure if that's considered normal. I've been running for over a year now and I go 2-3 days a week for 5 miles. I did 2 rounds (4 months) of Insanity and now…

How long do you lift for?
Hello, So I want to start putting more focus into lifting. I do some stuff at the gym- leg press, thigh press, pull-down lap bar (i think that's what it's called) and some free weights. I usually do 5 sets of 10 reps of all of those things. It doesn't really take me that long to do maybe 20 minutes. I'm just curious to…

Lifting questions
Hi, So I've been reading a lot of posts here about burning body fat with heavy lifting. We've all established that you can't spot reduce. I don't really need to lose more weight. I'm 5'3 at 118. I really want to tighten and tone my flabby pooch and thighs. I run 5 miles 2-3 days a week. I'm still doing the 30 Day shred and…

30 day shred & belly pooch??
Hi, So after 4 months of Insanity I've moved over to 30 day shred. I enjoy the change, but I've noticed now with the simple ab moves my belly pooch seems to have extended! I'm trying to get rid of that not make it bigger! Has this happened to anyone else doing 30 day shred or just from doing crunches and ab work? I just…

I know I can't spot reduce, but...
Why hasn't the flab in my thighs and lower belly gone away?? I've been jogging an hour 3-4 days a week and I do my Insanity 6 days a week for an hour. I've also been doing some weights at the gym just a few days a week too. I've finally reached my goal weight and I really don't need to lose any more. i'm not losing any…

cereal and oatmeal
I've read on a lot of sites that cereal- even "healthy" cereal really isn't. Cereal sits in your system and does nothing to help lose weight. I've read that oatmeal is the key to fill you up, rev your metabolism and help lose weight. I wanted to know if others have heard this about cereal. My other question is what kind of…

Pirate Booty
So I LOVE to eat Pirate Booty and I know it's supposed to be a healthy snack option. My question is how much are you allowed to eat. I had 1/2 cup which is 4oz. The entire bag is 4oz!! There is a big difference between eating 1/2 a cup and the entire bag. So does anyone know the equivalence of what I ate so I can enter it…

Why do I gain it back so easily???
So I've been doing Insanity since March 1st and i'm down to my last week of the program. I lost 10 pounds and just a few inches. For Lent I gave up pasta, bread, potatoes, cake and cookies. On Easter Sunday I was kinda afraid to eat some of those things I had given up. So I was careful and kept my portions under control at…

How acurate are the numbers for calories burned?
Hi All! So just about everyday i'm supposedly not eating enough. I enter my workouts and the amount of time spent on them and some magical little number pops up. I know I should get an heart monitor to better track it. But i'm curious to know how accurate these numbers are. Today for example I went jogging and later on I…

help! too much sodium
So the last few weeks my sodium numbers here have been crazy high leading my to drink 10 gallons of water a day. But the sodium is all coming from healthy things like fish, greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and celery. It's all making me so bloated- I can't stop drinking enough water!! Is it ok to have these high numbers in…

I'm not eating enough? Questions about the journal.
Hi Gang, So I've been logging my exercise and food in the food journal. At the end of the day i'm always coming up under calories. I don't want to keep eating, but I know you need to in order to stay out of starvation mode. I'm curious to know how accurate the numbers are and if i'm safe to stay a little under. My other…
