I'm starting to be able to see my top two abs! Holy crap I've got abs guys! :)

Of course they don't cancel each other out. I thought that was the whole point of a discussion, to gather facts from both sides and come to one's own conclusion. Not to just hear one side beat down anyone who says otherwise. But that seems to be the normal "discussion" on these forums. Please excuse my unejumucated input,…

How is my experience nonsense? I've been there, and it worked for me. Whether it's based on scientific studies, or not, it makes logical sense, there's trainers and coaches that still use somatyping, and there are people that have had good results with it. You can be right all you want but there's no reason to dismiss…

Whatever man, just saying it worked for me. Ronald McDonald could have developed it for all I care! :)
-
It's worked for me! I've lost alot more inches since adjusting my macros for my body type. :)

Hey feel free to add me, I'm 5 foot nothing. Sounds like focusing on getting more nutrition would help more than focusing on the scale. Maybe do some meal prepping for the week on a day the kids aren't with you. It's a struggle for us shorties, my weight loss is slow but my energy levels are way up since I've been focusing…

That's a thing?! Oh that sounds freaking awful!! Get a weight vest, don't ruin your ribs and organs.

Lol added refined sugar is not anything close to natural sugar in fruit. Not to mention the fruit has fiber along with the sugar. But everyone is entitled to their opinion, I just do what works for me :)
-
Oh right! I forgot the age factor. Sorry ladies, I didn't mean to be rude :(
-
That's got to be an estimate! How us that even possible? I'm 5 nothing and losing a pound a week at 1350, my BMR alone is over 1200!

If you don't log exercise you don't get any extra calories, just your daily goal calories.

Post the same type of stuff about alcoholism. Every time he wants to bring up your weight, flip it back on him, he'll probably catch that clue pretty quick.

Must be different for everyone, I don't crave junk at all anymore. My sugar cravings have even turned into fruit cravings :)

8/8 weigh in: 121.2 (I was down to 120.2 but it's shark week :/)

My boyfriend has been telling me how great my butt is looking for like a month now, but I just didn't see it. I always zero in on my trouble spots when I look at it in the mirror. But today I totally saw it! It really is starting to look pretty good, he's not just being nice! :)

No offense to the keto peeps in here, but the next person that tells me "Oh wow, you've lost weight! You should do the keto diet!" is going to get punched.

I got spoiled on well water, now it's all I drink. OP, I grew up on Coke then became a mountain dew addict and NEVER drank water for years. It took a lot of discipline, but I gave up the sodas entirely and now just drink black coffee, water, and the occasional beer. If I can do it, there's hope for everyone! :)

Hi, new to the group! Working on loosing the last 6.5 pounds. I eat around 1350 cals a day, do resistance strength training 3 days and cardio 6 days a week. Height: 5 foot nothing HW: 180 lbs when I was 17-18 SW: 138 Beginning of May CW: 121.2 GW: 115 August goal: 117
-
YUP! The cut off is 1500 for men and 1200 for women. I'm in the same boat, I can't loose more than a pound a week without sacrificing basic nutrition. There's nothing wrong with slow and steady loss, gives the skin time to tighten up as you loose anyways. :)
-
5 foot here! I've went from 138 in the beginning of May to 121 currently with a goal of 115. Feel free to add me! :)
-
God bless everyone under 5 feet! I love you all so much! I get super excited when I see people shorter than me! Who else has an over 6 foot tall husband or bf? Mine gets me all the stuff on the top shelves I can't reach lol
-
Nothing is sneaky if you're weighing and logging your food. The kitchen scale has become my best friend, because now I KNOW whether or not I can have something extra. It's been really empowering for me to be able to make confident food choices, instead of eating mindlessly and hoping for the best, or denying myself foods I…

Yesss! Putting the pan in a bonfire is how my bf and his family season fresh cast iron :)

I bought some wrap skirts last year when I gave up on fitting into my jeans, and today when I went to tie my skirt, I realized it's as small as I can make it and a little loose!
-
HA! Great stuff! Yeah I haven't had kik on my phone in a while, pretty sure it's just for all the hot young singles. I might still have an AIM sn somewhere though! Lol
-
Lol ahhh kik, such a colorful community there!

My go to Pandora stations are Static X, Excision, Tool, Sneaker Pimps, Rage Against the Machine, and Mindless Self Indulgence :)

Sorry your dealing with that! I wouldn't write off the men on MFP tho, I've had no problems with anyone. I've gotten a couple of what I call "fishing messages" (only creepers try to make small talk on this terrible messaging platform) but I ignored them and they didn't keep trying. Just delete the creepers :)
