You look amazing! Your body definitely has shape ☺️ next step to help with the “toned” look would be to start a progressive lifting program and maybe starting to eat at maintenance and start a recomp

Haha it’s funny because I always get quizzed on my middle name, DOB, and asked for a third piece of ID because I don’t look like my drivers license picture (combo of weight loss, makeup, and contacts) makeup can do some pretty cool stuff

I love getting done up and wearing makeup, but I’m lazy and so only wear makeup when I’m going out somewhere, I don’t bother with every day stuff. The upside? I usually get way more compliments then my friends who wear full faces every day EDIT: also my new favourite bit of makeup? I just bought a matte red lipstick from a…

I was starting to feel a little burnt out so last week I deloaded my weights and then this week due to scheduling/weather issues I couldn't make it to the gym at all, which might have worked out for the best since my knee has been bothering me from a soccer injury. A friend asked me to go bouldering with her last night and…

Treat yourself... Which probably means some Ben & Jerry's and Netflix snuggled in bed in my jam jams... I promise it's not as sad as it sounds

Fitness goals are to be able to do an unassisted pull up! Our gym got the assisted pull up machines so that’s perfect, just going to gradually take weight away and assisting with my normal strong lifts routine hopefully I can get there by summer! I’d also like to do the splits! As far as clothing, I have a few dresses I’ve…

I went out last weekend and then followed it up with a really terrible week food wise combined with a deload week and cut the cardio but I didn’t let my food choices demotivate me because I needed a week where I really didn’t pay attention. Now I’ve spent the weekend tightly logging (when I don’t normally log on weekends)…

I've always played competitive soccer growing up and as a result had bigger thighs, I used to hate them but learned to love them. Heavy lifting has honestly made them smaller - more defined, but smaller!

Damn when I see a girl with makeup on at the gym I wanna ask her where she got it because if its staying on its gotta be good quality.

Damn, you might want to tell all those Gen y and baby boomers on my Facebook sharing every piece of fake news they can find without fact checking to use those critical thinking skills they developed before google

I am a millennial and all we want is to be left in peace to look at memes all day so we can forget about how hard it is to get a job with our degrees that cost us 40k+

Awesome! That's the best way to work out, doing something you really enjoy, and dancing is certainly a lot of fun. I don't take any classes but sometimes when I'm in a bad mood I'll pop by headphones on and start dancing, it's a great mood booster

Same as most people, I could tell I was getting bigger because clothes were getting tight and pictures were not looking good, the moment I decided I needed to make changes was when I noticed my sweat pants getting tight. I could handle buying bigger jeans but there was no way I was upsizing my sweats

Just a spot of skim milk, but honestly it’s probably more for aesthetic than flavour, I like the colour of the coffee with a little milk

I missed a couple of days due to weather and power outages, but instead of just continuing along not doing it I started back up and completed day 5 and was it every worth it! I don't realize how much it helps to ground me and improve my mood until I miss a few days. So I'll keep trucking along, I'll just end it a little…

Yoga is definitely not a calorie burner, I don't even bother incorporating it into my daily burn. Strength training doesn't burn a lot either, I only count cardio calories usually. As for the yoga, I find it helps with my muscle soreness, and back pain from sitting at a desk all day, but like someone mentioned, the best…

I enjoy relaxing during the mornings to help ease myself into the day, so I still get up early but will usually put on a yoga video and do a light 30 min or so to warm my body up, then I get cozy on the couch and enjoy a cup of coffee before work. I'll then do my actual workout around 8pm at the gym. I find that's a good…

Currently reading Wuthering Heights in spurts because sometimes the characters are just too much to handle. Like, can you just relax for a second?

Deep dark eyes, nice forearms and back and a sense of humour and I’m done for.

I did finally catch on the next day when he sent me a pm on Facebook

More than I think I realize as I’m just a chatty person. Lol my friend mentioned on New Years that there was a guy hitting on me the whole night who I thought was just being friendly

^Re-tweet, the best thing I ever did for myself was start stronglifts. Then throw in cardio days or something in between if you'd like.

I think everyone feels that way when they start at a new gym but really everyone is going to be so focused on themselves no one will be judging you!

Starting it live! I completed one of her 30 days before but it more than 30 days before so my main goal for this year is to get on the mat every day! I always feel so calm and relaxed after a session I just need to remember that feeling. Today was a great way to ease into it! Good luck to everyone!

I take all my measurements once a month (mainly because I’m lazy and that’s the most maintainable option for me) and if I only took my weight I would have saw no progress between November and December. Fortunately I take measurements and progress pics so the lack of progress on the scale didn’t bother me because I lost…

Oh yes, at 22 I find myself telling my younger sister (16) to stop all her swearing and my mom just side eyes me because she used to tell me thme same thing

I went to dinner with a friend who’s background on her computer is the two of us on a trip from about 2 years ago and her boyfriend made a comment about how much Weight I’ve lost, never expected him to notice. My mom also got me a couple of gift cards instead of new bras and sports gear because she figured I’d be down a…

I think you might find doing a recomp to be beneficial to you, maintain your weight but follow a progressive lifting program.

Is this real?

I’m 5’ started at 165lbs and am now down to 151lbs just from exercising more and being more conscientious of what I eat. Finding I’m stalling so it’s time to switch to some serious logging! I’d like to get to around 130lbs but we’ll see as the weight comes off what feels right
