So I am working a million hour volleyball tournament this weekend and instead of standing around and sitting on my butt I'm doing a circuit type of body weight exercises every 2 hours. I'm up to 5x10 of squats, donkey kicks, dips, toe touches, hip abd & add, toe raisers, butt kickers, chest squeezes, lat pull downs,…

I've been weighing everything I make at home. I highly recommend weighing things in grams because I've found that the size (ie 1 Tbsp) can vary but grams are exact

I have to weigh in today since I'll be gone the rest of the weekend for work. SW:225 LW: 223.4 (last week) CW:222.6 #Lost:0.8 T#L: 2.4 (total #lost) I hope everyone had a great week. Remember progress is progress no matter how small!

Ugh. So apparently you can't use emojis or it will erase everything you posted after that!! Anyway: sometimes I eat calories back and sometimes I don't. I try and ask myself if I'm bored or really hungry, have a glass of water and decide from there. For me, as long as I'm at a deficit, I'm happy for the day.

Weight loss is all about calories in vs calories out. So if your body takes in more than it need for the activities of your day it will store those "extra" for use at a later time, causing weight gain. Conversely if you eat less than needed, it will tap into that "storage" to meet it's needs allowing you to lose weight.…

It depends. If I haven't hit my macro goal and I'm hungry I'll eat like a Greek yogurt to get protein and satisfy a craving. I have a hard time hitting my protein goal, so I'm always trying to up that a bit since I'm working on beginning strength training and I need it more than ever.

@alannabuck I haven't heard of that. Is it like a program that tells you what to lift? I'm going to start the 5x5 program at the end of March. I'm doing some strength training for beginners now to build a strength base and work on getting proper form down completely. I just played Dance Central on my Xbox for an hour BC I…

I don't know what happened to the rest of my post!! I took a Zumba class on Sat morning and it was so much harder than I thought it would be, but it was tons of fun. I'll probably try to do it 2-3 times a week for cardio. Anyone doing any type of plan or anything like a squat challenge? How's it working so far?

My diet now is just eating more fruits, veggies, and lean protein sources. I was eating like garbage before with a lot of fast/processed foods. My main goal is to stay within 5% of my macros, so 50-25-25 is the breakdown for me personally. I'm weighing EVERYTHING when I eat at home and its helping me be more cognizant of…

Just a quick repost to anyone who missed it.

I don't like the idea of cheat days as I feel it just encourages me to binge. I'm trying to be more realistic this time so if I wouldn't deny it forever, I'll do like 2020pink and just incorporate it into my food for the day. I'm trying to make better choices though like eating smaller portions or leaving off things that…

My name is Jenni and at 225 lbs one week ago I was the heaviest I've ever been in my life. I've gained about 50 lbs since meetings my bf 4 years ago. He eats like garbage and I've been there right along with him. I feel so unhealthy and just unsatisfied with my body and looks. I want to be realistic about this being a…

Sooo after my first week: SW:225 CW: 223.4 GW:200 LBS LOST: 1.6 Hooray!!

I want to join for sure! SW:225 CW:225 GW:200 That is not my overall goal, but what I feel is realistic to achieve by June.

Acoustic Run in the sun or run in the rain?

Well if I can find someone at a Raiders game(and Raiders fans are shady a f**k) and also some random strangers from South Africa at Mardi Gras and randos from Ireland in Vegas to take pics, I'm sure you can find some innocuous mom&dad at Disneyland or whatever

I don't live OR vacation in Smallville. Just pick someone who doesn't look like a shady mofo. Not that hard.

@DoreenaV1975 The bad pics make sense now...I was just thinking you were like complaining that they only take 1 pic and someone in the group is always blinking lol :D

The people who try to justify selfie sticks...no one wants to steal your *kitten* phone. I have my own phone that I picked out and has all my crap in it-I don't want your garbage *kitten* phone! Hella egotistical!

Except you think most people are out to steal something from you if you ask them to take a pic for you...I have had tons of strangers take pics with my phone and I have never had anyone even attempt to walk away with it. Like where are you people living that you think everyone wants your stuff?!?

OMG how can you be wrong about so many things @ind1983 ?? lol Also, what happened to all your hair? Heights are my biggest fear-like I don't even like standing on chairs/stools-makes my heart race Air conditioner or ceiling fans?

There are no subways here in CA, so I guess railroad? like the BART is awesome, but I don't live Bay Area, so I rarely use it Also, basketball sucks ;) Soccer or Rugby?

@hollydubs85 Do you honestly think that many people are out to get you? That is sad.

I work outside/wherever my athletes are...I'd LOVE to work from home, but that's not the life I chose ;) Hockey or Basketball?

@DoreenaV1975 I don't understand what you mean by this? Can you explain?
