Confused over Shakeology and other meal replacement drinks..
I've recently started looking into Shakeology. I've heard all the stories about how "magical" it is, and I have to say that they peaked my interest. I did a search in the forums, but didn't really get the info I was looking for. I personally am looking for a meal replacement that will give me a healthy amount of veggies…

8+ Reasons the Paleo Diet Should be Extinct
I stumbled across this article today, and it peaked my general interest about the Paleo Diet. Until today, I'd never really looked into it. I have, however, seen many people asking about it on the forums. That being said, I'm sharing the link for those who are interested. If you read through the entire thing (it's long), I…

Help with Calorie Intake for Insanity -- which is correct?
I'm trying to figure out which calorie total to go with for my food intake while doing the Insanity program (today is day 3). Previously I was eating 1390 and doing light excercise. Using the formula in the food guide for the progam, here are my numbers: 655 +(4.35 x 163)+(4.7 x 67")-(4.7 x 26) = 1556.75 x 1.2 (sedentary)…

Feeling Discouraged :(
When I started Insanity 38 days ago, I went from eating around 1200 calories a day to 1750. About two weeks ago, I upped my calories to 15% below my TDEE, so I've been eating at 2025. I don't have a heart rate monitor, but I keep track of my pulse while doing Insanity (stays between 130-160 for each workout). On my rest…

Military Spouses?
Anyone out there a military spouse that is looking for some more friends? I'm a (working) mom to one (stepmom to three), and wife of a Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune. I'm just looking for others that have a similar lifestyle and are here to lose weight and stay motivated. :happy:

Headaches and Migraines
Does anyone have frequent severe headaches or migraines? How do you manage to work out through them? I've had ongoing severe headaches and migraines for a month straight now. My doc has done a CT (normal results) and has me trying different medications that haven't helped so far. I've missed four work outs this week alone…

Sugar Substitute?
Does anyone have any suggestions for a good tasting sugar substitute? I only use sugar in my coffee and hot tea, and I strongly dislike the taste of splenda. I'm looking for something that tastes as close as possible to sugar and doesn't have a weird aftertaste.

Newbie who's confused...
Ok, I keep reading about eating back the calories you burn during excercise. This has me confused. If I meet my calorie intake of 1250 for the day, and then burn 250 during a workout, why would I eat the calories back? Isn't creating a calorie deficit a good thing? Someone help me understand this please.
