    Genetics are my biggest challenge. Diabetes and sketchy metabolism make things interesting

    To get into the weight room 3 days per week consistently. Aesthetically I was at my best when I was consistently getting into the weight room 3x per week.

    My biggest challenge is not ditching the weight room for a bike ride on a nice day because it's more fun and it's a nice day.

    Bike rides are also very good exercise, so it might not be such a bad thing. Just make sure to compensate by eating more.

    Also depends on your climate I guess, I'm from norway, we don't have that many nice days lol

    Oh yeah, I know...it's very good cardiovascular work...I just look better physically when I'm lifting consistently and summer is on it's way.

    I live in New Mexico, so it's usually a nice day here...we average around 310 days of sunshine per year...but some days are nicer than others and they all seem to fall on a day that I'm supposed to be in the weight room.

    Lucky! Where I live we average almost 100 rain-days, and mostly its just cloudy and freakin cold. I have escaped to Barcelona, Spain for a year now luckily!

    What are your goals and what are your biggest challenges?

    My goal is to continue to build upon my strength and lose another 5-7% body fat.

    My challenges are keeping on track on the weekends. I actually do a pretty good job at it, but it's definitely more of an uphill battle. Especially when we go out to eat - I hate not being able to track everything exactly. My fiance eating ALL THE DELICIOUS THINGS doesn't make any of this easier either :/

    I struggle a lot with patience. I still have another 10-12 pounds I'd like to drop but I want to do it in a healthy sustainable manner so I know it's a slow battle.

    my biggest challenge is losing weight. I can maintain and do well but, it seems impossible to see the number on the scale go any lower.

    Cutting.. When I bulk I start enjoying the surplus calories too much. Each bulk I do it gets harder too. sigh

    I chose to maintain my new weight for 2 months this time, but I have one more week to mentally prepare for the official cutting phase. I can do it, its time to rid the fluff. :smiley:

    My biggest goal is to keep dropping weight. I'm down about 30lbs so far this year and would like to drop another 65 or so.

    My biggest challenge is my after work binge. I eat really good during the day, but I'm always really hungry when I get home from work about 3pm and end up binging on crap. I may just start eating an early dinner and just have a snack in the evening.

    Have you considered having prepared snacks for when you get home? I used to be very much like this, but having a plan, knowing that when I get home I'll have this apple, yogurt, protein bar, or whatever to keep me full until dinner helped me a lot. Having a plan and having the snack easily available helps tons!

    To update, the bold: Yesterday I finally attempted to begin dating by joining an online group of fellow singles, that like me also've Chronic Fatigue Syndrome {CFS}! Unfortunately many aren't looking, to date though & the 1's that're, are mostly via Europe!
