You're welcome :)

Oh God not this again. 1. It's not a "military diet". I'm in the military. No. 2. Calorie deficit, exercise, consistency. That's what will work. You don't need to starve yourself.

True true. Thanks for posting :) I try to do the same as far as breakfast. It makes it more like half a free day.

That sounds fun! And yeah, I will see if this works for me and if it doesn't I will try the indulgent meal once a week or so. :)

This is awesome. :) Love that it's working for you, I hope it does for me too!

Amen!

LOL! You crack me up! :P WOWWWW Amazing! Good job!! :) :) :)

OOO OO O OO that sounds soooo good!!! :O :D :) And you're doing GREAT!!! How inspiring! (And yeah haha I like using the word free too...cheat makes me feel like it's bad lol) That's really encouraging tho, thanks for posting. :) :)

AWESOME JOB!! :D Good for you girl! <3 True true. Well I'm gonna try this for a while and see if it works for me then. :D

So true!! Good plan. :) When I'm set at maintenance I also want to enjoy those special food occasions without friggin out about it lol.

WOW congrats and awesome job on your weight loss. :) That's great to hear! I'm happy! I'm Italian so I need that big pasta night once a month lol..

AWESOME. :)

That's REALLY great to hear!! Thanks for contributing! :) <3

That sounds nice. :) <3

I LOVE sugar! It's why I gained weight lol. But cutting out sugar or limiting it too much leads me to binges.. For me personally I've found that having small treats are okay throughout the day as long as I'm mostly eating nutritious food, and I try not to eat sugar when I'm hungry as it makes me more hungry. I also swear…

Cool! :) Just out of curiosity - Do you plan on keeping this level of maintenance for a long time? (aka for the rest of your life lol) Or do you plan on changing your physique goals as you get bored or whatever with where you are at? Kind of a side question but I've been wondering what happens really once somebody has been…

Never said that!! :) I definitely do. For some reason I've just always been shy of the free weight area and so am stuck with up to 20 lb dumbbells at home and workout videos. Which is great right now! But it's getting too easy so I bought Starting Strength and I'm studying it. I am about to be stationed away from home for…

Gotcha gotcha. Thank youuuu!!

Makes sense... so basically, home strength workouts with limited amounts of weight while eating at a 300 calorie deficit can actually bring you to LOSE muscle mass after a while? :O Thanks for your help :) (I'm going to start SS next month, just curiosity for the future as I do prefer to workout at home..)

Awesome, I will probably come up with a mix of the two, lol! :) Thanks for your help. :*

I really like this reasoning. :) So very true.

I'm in the Air Force. I get up at 4 every morning to go do my own workout at the gym, bring my uniform and all to shower and get ready in the locker room. There have been days where I've had to do it in the afternoon instead, because of how badly I slept and knew I needed extra sleep. (I am an Arabic linguist...I need to…

Gotcha gotcha. Wow that's heavy!! Just the bar?! Starting with the dumbbells is a good suggestion. But only if I can't handle the bar. I assume I would just do my squats somewhere other than the squat rack then so as to not be a jerk lol. Can I take some lifts that I like from SS and leave out others/substitute them? I…

I did HIIT sprints on the treadmill at the gym before work this morning!

Wowww what an inspiring transformation!!! You go girl!! :D <3

Awesome info from everybody thanks so much! I'm healthy and my bp is fine so I guess I won't try changing it any time soon. :) I appreciate it

WOW you look so cute and yes I see a difference!!! Amazing! :D

Cool thank you :) That will be this weekend for me!

I'm in the military and I swear by calories in, calories out, and working hard. That diet is a complete scam.

Hey guys I use p90xcalories.com to log my p90x calories :) it is accurate and pretty cool
