    BFFM week of Oct. 3

    Good Morning everyone! I did have a few cheat meals this week due to Birthdays for people but all in all I stayed with it. I took a peek at the scale today just to see if it was bad and I had lost a few ounces, no gains! I still stay within 1800 cal. a day. I am concidering the zig zagging...

    BFFM week of 9/26

    Hi everyone! It has been kind of up and down for me this week. I have followed my meal plan perfectly until the evening sets in. I had low fat pop corn Monday night and last night I ended up eating some toast and other things around 8:30pm --- bad! I am looking at changing up my eating...

    BFFM week of 9/26

    Hi everyone, I have a question about the eating. It seems as though I am hungry around 7:30 or so at night. I eat at 6:30, 9:30, 12:30, 3:30 and 6pm now. Would it be horrible to stretch some of the meals out to 3 1/2 or 4 hrs so that my final meal comes around the 7:30 mark or is it better...

    New workout routine - Getting good results all around

    Hi Catwomen, I just wanted to say your story sounds exactly like mine. I started AM workouts six weeks ago. I noticed a difference in my definition after two weeks and now I find that I don't enjoy my day if I miss my AM workout unless it is a planned day off. Another benefit is that I eat...

    Chocolate

    No never! But that goes for everything else. I have two boys, ages three and four. They always say Mom what are you eating when they see me chewing. They also ask for food off my plate. I can't imagine what it will be like when they are teenagers. Vicky

    What move do you just hate?

    I can't think of the technical term but the move where you go from one side of the step to the other and clap in the center. It's not that it is too difficult, I just hate them. When she uses it as a break during Imax2 between Sumos I just jog in place. Vicky

    has anyone "arrived" yet

    You know the saying, I have "arrived". Has anyone out there reached their goals and been able to say, "yes, this is where I wanted to be and I am happy." I have always thought I needed to loose weight. Not alot, around 10 - 30 lbs at any given time. I guess I have never been happy with what...

    BFFM week of 9/18

    Hi everyone, I got up today and got on the treadmill. 3 miles and 350 calories according to the machine. I also measured my body fat using the accumeasure and it says I am down 2% but the scale doesn't register a change in body fat. Is my scale not working? My clothes do seem to fit better...

    BFFM week of 9/18

    Hi everyone, Doing OK here on my sixth week. This weekend I struggled due to not having planned ahead for meals. The timing was off and the food wasn't always clean. I did have cravings for chocolate too that I indulged but I am back on track as of Monday. I have been faithful in my cardio...

    BFFM'ers eating one "treat"

    I am following BFFM and this week I ate some "treats" on some days. For example, 1/2 a cookie one day, three hersey kisses two days later but followed clean eating with exercise each day. My weight didn't budge at all and it felt like I was being really good other than these small calorie...

    Why am I so HUNGRY?

    I am glad to see that others have this problem too. I have been starving all week and I haven't changed a thing and it isn't TTOM. Nights are the hardest but last night I decided to do some cleaning and I chewed gum. Yesterday during the day I had a diet pop to try to kill the cravings. I...

    Wisdom teeth-- AGH!!

    I had my wisdom teeth all removed over a year ago. They knocked me out and when I woke up my face was all packed with gauge, not pleasant. Over the next week I had pain etc due to dry sockets which I still don't know why I got because I followed their instructions to a T. The final and worst...

    suggestions for step only workouts

    I have Rythmic Step and Step Blast, the three IMAX's and low Max. The rest of my Cathe workouts are circuit or weights. Does anybody else have Cathe favorites that are pure step for 40-60mins? It doesn't matter if they are old or new as long as they are challanging. Thanks! Vicky

    Oh, I forgot. Does anyone else take a supplement with fish oil and flaxseed. I found one and I started taking it, but do you think it is necessary? Vicky

    Hi everyone! Thanks for all the great meal ideas. I am a former Atkins girl and am really enjoying all the new options out there with BFFM. I am starting to get used to early morning exercise and feel really terrible if I skip it like I did this morning. It stormed here last night and I...

    BFFM folks

    This sounds like a good idea since questions come up all the time. I have lost 4 lbs in 4 weeks on BFFM. Counting calories was hard at first but it is getting easier. Today I ate three Hersey's kisses, no harm right? Wrong, they each have 26 cal. a piece!!!! What a waste of 78 cal. Unlike...

    Accu-measure body fat caliper

    I am working on the methods in the book BFFM and I bought the caliper to measure my body fat. Each week I measure with everything being the same and I have lost lbs and my clothes are looser but the caliper hasn't changed. Am I doing something wrong or should I invest in a more accurate tool...
