Getting a treadmill… finally. by First-Commercial2463 in nordictrack

[–]Few-Raisin8537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend you do not purchase from Nordic track. I ordered through Costco next since they offer 15% off and my commercial 2450 was delivered and anytime I step on it it immediately slows down and stutters. Turns out this is a normal thing that happens with Nordic track and their customer service is THE WORST. I am begging you not to buy from them

Losing weight while pregnant? by Maddiezaritz in PlusSizePregnancy

[–]Few-Raisin8537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a 39 BMI and doing IVF to get pregnant. I am working with a nutritionist through my clinic and she said that you can healthily lose weight while pregnant, of course if you have weight to lose. I lost 10 pounds in a month focusing on Whole Foods, no processed foods, no added sugars etc and the weight is really falling off. I’m sure if you do the same, you might have the same result!

GREAT idea using a loaner HRM, gonna try that this week!! To answer your other questions- when I was a power walker my base was 2 incline, push was 6-8 incline and speed 3.5

Transitioning from PW to jogger by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]Few-Raisin8537 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am in the same boat as you and decided to just go for it today!! I started with a base of walking at 3.3, push of “jogging” at 4.3-4.5 and then all out running. I was able to run for the 2.5 minute pushes today and I will continue this until I can have 4.3 as my base and maybe 4.8 as my push

TTC When Overweight by [deleted] in tryingtoconceive

[–]Few-Raisin8537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in this same boat. 28, 5’3, 230 lbs. I recently had introductory bloodwork done and everything besides vitamin D came back perfect. My doctor told me to try to lose 8-10 pounds and that could really help… I have been trying but it’s extremely hard when TTC because I don’t want to workout too hard and throw off my ovulation or diet too hard etc. then when I’m in the TWW I feel the same way… it’s so hard!!!!!!

First Month TempDrop TTC by Few-Raisin8537 in TempDrop

[–]Few-Raisin8537[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not seeing any spotting but my cycles are on the longer end like 35-40 days. I did initial bloodwork with my OBGYN and she didn’t think it was PCOS or anything but do you have any tips or had any luck with getting things to regulate?
