Plateau
HI....any creative ideas on breaking a plateau? I have not gained or lost an ounce in the past week and a half! I've varied eating - some days higher calories, some days lower, started to add weight training again...and nothing. Even had a high sodium meal at night just to see if the scale moved in the morning and NOTA!! I…

30 D.S.
HI! I have a question on the 30 Day Shred. I have had this DVD for probably about 2 years and only done it 2 days, so I don't remember it that well. I do remember that she has it broken down into 3 sections - easy, medium, hard (for lack of better terms). SO, do most of you do ALL 3 or do you do 1 at at time, until you…

Polar FT 7 Heart Rate Monitor
Hi, Does anyone else use this monitor? I have found that no matter what the intensity of the exercise it seems to count calories ONLY based on duration. Say, I do fast walking/jogging for 50 min, it is the SAME calorie usage as a 50 min leisurely walk. I know this isn't correct. Since we accidently threw out the manual, I…

A lot of programs tell you to incorporate a cheat meal or a cheat day. Anyone doing this? Which? And do you feel like a failure when mfp broadcasts on your wall…

Horribly Frustrated!!!
I finally got my heart rate moniter in and all figured out yesterday. So, I wore it when I did my Insanity work out last night - Plyo Cardio, I believe it was - and at the end of 38 min, sweat dripping EVERYWHERE, panting and exhausted - the stupid thing said I only burned 213 calories???? My heart rate stayed between 140…

INSANITY Program
Hi, Is there anyone out there doing INSANITY?? My husband and I started on May 30th and did a little 2 wk trial to see if we could do it. So, we technically REALLY started on the 20th of June - as far as following the calender. We've gone through the 2nd Fit Test and my numbers all went up (they REALLY went up from when we…

Hi! New Here
Hi! I just signed up today and thought this was just a site to track your foods, so I'm really excited about these boards and what I've been reading! I lost 130 lbs about 3 years ago and last year got pregnant with my 3rd child and gained back about 100 of that. I beat myself up over what I've done because I know HOW HARD…
