Hey guys, random question...
Is it safe for kids to eat protein powder?
The reason I ask is because I am considering making this recipe and I know my daughter (8 yrs old)will be dying to have some : http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/461619-ny-cheesecake-morph0 -
Hey ladies...
Just was checking my BF% on one site...just for consistencies sake.
So start of my journey on MFP on June 17th 2013
BF% 33.1%
End of 1 round of 30Day Shred July 20th 30.7%
End of 2nd rounnd of 30DS Sept 2nd 29.4% BF
After 10 weeks of SL 5x5 26.3% BF
After 18 weeks of SL 25% BF..
Not saying those are what the true numbers are but definatley shows the progression. esp within the first 10 weeks of lifting.
starting weight 178lb after 2 rounds of 30DS 170lbs, after 10 wks of SL 164.5lbs...after 18wks of SL 165lbs (gained 1.5lb over christmas) now I am 162lbs...will do another BF% at week 25...but definately pleased with the Progress...
Thinking about posting pics in the ETP group to see what Sara and SS think.0 -
Good job, Stef! I love seeing numbers go down! Last year, I bought one of those body fat/weight/water percentage scales and I knew the BF #'s were pretty much guaranteed to be wrong, so last Saturday, I had a BodPod scan done. Let's just say I like my scale much, much, much better.
Even though my BF number is nowhere near what I want it to be, I am seeing measurement #'s getting smaller!
11/12/13:
Waist: 32
Navel: 35.5
Under bra: 32.5
Hips: 42
1/30/14:
Waist 31.25
Navel: 33.75
Under bra: 31.25
Hips: 41.25
My weight has pretty much stayed the same. When I started in Nov, I was 151. Sometimes I'm 149, sometimes I'm 152 (especially after Christmas, birthday & cruise, lol!). This morning I was 150. 0 -
Oh, thanks guys for reminding me to check my measurements *facepalm* Gonna stay off the scale though cuz I have had a good bit to eat today already lol.
Since I just finished the fat loss challenge I was in, I'm going to use the stats from the start to compare (all inches). The BF% is from a formula that uses the measurements I took (not all included, don't wanna bore you guys too much xD):
2013/10/28
Weight: 194lbs
Waist: 34.5
Hips: 44
Chest: 37
Thighs: 25
BF%: 39.75
2014/02/02
Weight: 182lbs
Waist: 33.5
Hips: 41 (biggest improvement here!)
Chest: 35.5
Thighs: 24.5
BF%: 35.25
Now I do have a scale that measures BF% but it always spouts out 35% when I weigh in first thing in the AM, and then depending on how hydrated I am it'll go down all the way to 30%... so I don't know what to think of it. lol
A bit disappointed in the fact I yoyoed my way around maintenance for the month of January. But considering the knee issues I've had and that whole week I was sick, it could've been worse.
Goal for February is to do that darned unassisted chin-up and get down below 180 and stay thar! Keeping it simple! 0 -
Yah I don't think my BF% is correct...close but I used a website and used starting measurments etc.
It just gives me a good view at the decrease and I am happy with that.0 -
Mine is just from my scale which I have changed recently so all with a pinch of salt!!
Re protein powder, look at the ingredients. If it is fairly natural I wouldn't be worried!0 -
Ready for the weekend already....
