TF/CHX Hybrid vs. Jamie Eason LiveFit, maybe Insanity?
What would you do next? BG - Completed TF and I love it. Lost 80 lbs, then had a baby about 3m ago. Currently finishing Fit Body Bootcamp and doing some TF here & there on my days off of the bootcamp. Diary open if needed to be seen.

Getting tired of logging
I'm reaching out for advice/support. I meticulously logged my food and exercise for 7 month and lost 80 lbs. I since gave birth and I'm back in the MFP saddle but I'm getting tired of logging everything. Is it just a phase? Should I stop tracking for a bit and see if I can continue the weight loss on my own?

Weight gain with new program, when will it level off?
This week I started Fit Body Bootcamp (which is awesome) and I'm up 1.5 lbs. I'm sure it's just water retention in the muscles as I'm pushing them harder than I have before (I know I haven't eaten an extra 5250 cals.) but I would think that I wouldn't hold on to the extra fluids for more than a day or two. Do you have any…

Looking for a whey protein powder with fiber
Title says it all, I need to find a great tasting powder and I prefer that it has at least 2g of fiber per serving (and don't mention shakeology, BBV or any other MLM products, thanks). The best I've found is BSN Syntha-6 but being 2 months pregnant all of the different protein isolates in the ingredients list makes me…

Fat Belly Diet Followers - Do you go over on fat?
I've recently started following the FBD (I'm don't know why it's called diet, it's a lifestyle change) as a means to get more fruits & veg into my diet and educate myself on healthy vs. unhealthy fats (great book, I recommend the book, not their site). My family likes the recipes and I've started following the outline of 4…

150 lbs lost as a team
I could not have traveled this path alone. Together, my husband RebelBrew and I have lost a combined 150 since May/June. It's amazing to see the differences and even more amazing to see just how far we have come in such a short time.

When do you stop seeing the 'fat you' in the mirror?
DH and I were talking about this, he's lost 65 lbs but he still see's the 300 # man when he looks in the mirror. When I was folding laundry I was still in denial that I wear that size. We are both in awe of losing over 120 # combined, but we don't see ourselves in a new, healthier way. Does it just take time to realize…

Group Class Certification - How Long Does It Take?
My gym is looking for instructors and I was told to get certified and then they'd start training me.

From the time you got the materials how long did it take before you sat for the…

I'm doing Turbo Fire plus Zumba & Strength Endurance Classes at my gym. I alternate strength days and do one or two cardio exercises 6 days a week. At the SET class yesterday I really pushed myself with weights, trying to do all of the reps even if it's at my own pace so I don't need a break. I felt it right after the…

Since I started tracking my food I have learned...
...that a single portion size of cheese is not worth the 120-some odd calories. That's one thing among many. Have you learned something shocking, interesting, amusing, etc. about a favorite or go-to food?
