Starting W1D1 today...anybody else want to join?
I'm starting W1D1 today (after quitting in week 5 a few months ago and feeling horrible about it) is there anybody that is a "newbie" and ready to do this together? Any motivation that we can give each other will just be that extra boost that we all need to complete the prgram :)

Opinions Needed Please!!
I have been changing my lifestyle consistently over the past 3 weeks. I last took my measurements on July 9th. I just took them again and no change?! Also the scale isn't really doing anything but going up and down. I exercise 4-6 days a week and try and eat the best I can as well as portion control. My clothes seem to fit…

Transitioning from the treadmill to outside?
I'm currently only on week 2 of the program and I have been mostly using the treamill for my runs. Right now the treadmill is just easier for me as I'm a single mom and tend to get on it after my son has gone to bed for the night. Once I'm done the full 9 weeks I plan on registering for a 5K. What is going to be the…

Macro settings for low carb?
I currently have my macros set at 5% carb, 45% protein & 50% fat. The carbs are only showing 17g but if I keep track of my net carbs with my fiber intake and just use my diary settings a guide. Should I be ok with keeping my macros at these settings or should I be changing them?

HELP!!! Quit smoking and trying to lose weight!

Exercise calories...to eat? or not eat? That is the question
My daily calorie intake is 1200. I aways come close to eating that within the day. However I do my workouts in the evening after my son has to gone to bed. As I'm a single mom its the only "me" time I get. I usually burn about 250-320 caories during a workout, which in turn brings me below my 1200 again. As a rule I don't…

How to track calories when doing C25K???
I'm starting the C25K and I don't have a heart rate montior. How do I enter this into MFP when I'm logging my exercise??

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can quickly build up the muscle in…
