Hope you all are having an awesome friday!!:drinker:

    WOOT WOOT! Are you following scooby numbers or the NROLFW numbers? I've just been doing scooby so I've been eating the same every day and not lower on workout days. I hope thats right! I just finished WORKOUT4 B today! Felt great! You are doing awesome!

    i'm following the NROLFW right now but the numbers are really close.

    Scooby 15% cut 2329

    NROLFW non workout 2250

    NROLFW workout 2550

    the difference is 197 calories over the course of a week. I'm open to suggestions if someone has experience with having done both though

    Thanks! you're doing awesome too!

    What is NROLFW? Oh wait, since I am new to EM2WL, maybe I shouldn't confuse myself more than I should :laugh:

    I kind of had a similar moment today. I have done so much reading in the past couple of days and feel I have more to do, but think I have finally realized not to panic and make it simple. So, I think I finally get it and am just ironing out the kinks, figuring out food choices and workouts.

    Today, I feel great!!
  • Whooo! I'm having a rest day today and honestly 2000 calories with NO exercise is freaking me out a little. I'm up for the challenge though. LOL!

    The short answer: NROLFW= New Rules Of Lifting For Women~ it's a book with a nice little program for weight lifting just for us!
    Lifing weights is a good companion with EM2WL because it promotes GAINING MUSCLE AND LOSING FAT~

    Meanwhile, welcome to the family and you're on the right track: keep it simple!
