CrossFit
I'm thinking of joining a local crossfit gym and was looking for any feedback. I know it's not going to be easy and I'm sure it will not be enjoyable but was looking for something to push me a little bit harder than just the gym. Any feedback positive or negative would be greatly appreciated.

Good morning everyone! I have a qestion that I'm sure has been answered before (probably a million times already LOL) but I'm going to ask anyway :) Which is better, to have a long term goal of my goal weight, or a few mini goals along the way?

Low calorie/fat/sodium
Hello everyone! Recently I have been having some medical issues and to make a long story short it's come down to my heart. My doctor has recommended a low fat/sodium diet, but I have been doing low calorie. Any recommendations on food, recipes or snacks that would work with both of these diets?! I've been eating a lot of…

Started over..
I'm sure I'm not the only one when starting MFP lost a decent amount of weight. I was down 20 pounds then I fell off the wagon. I've in the year gained back 25 pounds which makes me sick. When I log in everyday and see 20 pounds down I know it is incorrect and hard to look at. Has anyone else re-set your starting weight…

Knee Issues
I had a question and I was thinking this is the place to post it. I am starting week 3 of T25 Alpha phase tonight, and for the past week, my knee has been bothering me big time. It's not bad when I'm walking but when I bend it, it is a killer. I was thinking if maybe I wore a brace when working out, that might help for a…

Asics?
Just a question on reviews for the Asics running shoes? My foot doctor recently recommended them but when I saw some were over $100, I decided I didn't want to just jump in and buy them without really reviewing the shoe itself. I tried it on and it was really comfy for the 5 minutes I tried them. He said you have to check…

Horrible Monday!
This is me, complaining, venting and getting this off my back... Last week, I exercised all 7 days, I stayed within (or under) my calorie goal and when I weighed this morning, I was up 4 oz. I know 4 oz is not the end of the world, but I busted my butt last week to see results and I was up! I feel horrible this morning so…

Calories burned
This might be a stupid question but yesterday when I went to the gym I put my weight in the machine and it told me I burned 310 calories, so I got home I logged it like I normally do, then it came up with Fitbit burned 200 something calories. So then all of a sudden it said I burned 0 calories. Not sure how this all works…

Setting Goals!
OK, I know I have a long term goal in mind, but is it a bad thing to set them as I go?? I want something to look forward to short term. I was thinking at 10 weeks, 20 weeks, my 6 month mark and then my birthday would be at 31 weeks. Is that to much to ask for and am I setting myself up for failure if I don't hit my goal…

FitBit?
OK, so I must live in the past time because until today I had no idea what FitBit was. I'm still a little confused so I searched it on the best buy website and got a general idea. Pretty good reviews.. I saw they have three of them, do you know if the calorie count is accurate on these? (Especially the ones you wear on…
