She looks really good to me, very lean, but not bulky by no means.

This is all really helpful information (even though I haven't completely read through the whole thread yet), that I intend to look back on for future use. I just wanted to share my journey so far as well. I'm currently only 3 and half months in to my recomp, so I'm still learning what is going to work best for me, but I…

I think she means on her home page. I'd contact MFP Support about it.

5'0" CW: 108-110.5lb (BF% 20.7 as of 5/1/15) GW: 100-105lb or BF% 16-18 or somewhere in between. Currently in the process of recomp (eating a small deficit) while still trying to encourage these last few pounds to disappear lol. Will go into full recomp when I hit and am fluctuating at around 105-107.

First off, you can't spot reduce. To lose weight and body fat you need to eat at a deficit. The weight will come off when and where it wants to. To gain strength and muscle definition (tone) lift weights and progressively get heavier. You won't instantly gain a bunch of muscle or look like a bodybuilder, because 1) women…

Wow, that is inspiring. Thanks for sharing :smile:

My goals are similar to yours as well. Send you a friend request :flowerforyou:.

When I had my back molars pulled all I could stand to eat was soup (mainly broths but sometimes chicken noodle or veggie alphabet soup) and soft mushy foods that required little to no chewing like steamed veggies and mashed fruits. I hope it heals quickly and you start feeling better soon.

My husband and I have a few gardens growing this year. We have our herb garden with sage, rosemary, basil, thyme, a bay tree, and oregano. Then we have two separate vegetable gardens with carrots, corn, yellow squash, zucchini, eggplant, peas, tomatoes (cherries, big boy, and one other type I can't remember what it is),…

Every morning I do a quick 15 - 30 min workout, usually HIIT or a run but sometimes I'll do a zumba video too. Mon: Shoulders/Back, Chest, & Core 30 - 60 min. Tues: 30 - 45 min. run Wed: Full Body 30 - 60 min. Thurs: 30 - 45 min. run Fri: Legs, Glutes, & Arms 30 - 60 min. Sat: Cardio - Zumba, Hiking, Run, Kayaking, Archery…

My workout shoes (I run and lift in Vibrams) can last me from six months to a year. I usually go by how my feet feel during and after my workouts. I know when it's time to change them because during my runs my shins and ankles will start to hurt and it will continue afterwards cutting my run shot. That's when I start…

5'0" here, currently 108 lb. I'm not maintaining right now, my goal is 105 lb. and 17%-18% BF, but I wanted add in my advice and input. As stated above, not everyone is going to eat at the same maintenance calories even if they are the same height or weight (just like everyone's ideal weight is not going to be the same…

I've never tried it, honestly I've never even heard of it until I clicked on the link, but if was considering buying anything from them it would be that cookbook cause those recipes look pretty good. The testimonials and transformation photo's were very nice too though. My only problem with it is that all the exercise and…

:heart: CONGRATULATIONS ALISA :heart: That is so awesome :sunglasses: :, today is really a great day. Isabelle I hate that you'll be without a home for a few days, but it is always exciting moving into a new home. I'm going to go for a nice long run today. My muscles are a bit sore from yesterdays workout so I'm hoping…

Dallas Friday. Our height and frames are similar and I know that her body is something that I could achieve and maintain.

It can be get a bit annoying changing the weight in between sets, but after a while you'll get good at it and can change them in seconds lol :smile:. Yeah I'd definitely try to find them used before I bought any brand new, just make sure they're in good condition first. I'd check with your local hunting laws, here in my…

On the bow hunting, it's not that hard to get started. You can go to any certified bow shop and they'll set you up with a bow that's perfect for you. They'll help you work on your form and stance, show you how to shoot, and get your draw length perfect for you. You can even pick out cute accessories that will help make the…

What I mean by "my heaviest right is 25 lbs," is that 25 lbs is the heaviest I can lift that still isn't too heavy but I still get a challenge during my workouts and I can complete all the moves with good form. I could probably lift 30 to 45 lbs, but it would be much more of a struggle for me and I probably wouldn't finish…

I'm going to be honest with you, I skimmed through most of it but I did get the gist of the post. I have a question about your dumbbells, are they fixed dumbbells or can you easily change the weight on them? If they're fixed dumbbells and you'd only like to use fixed dumbbells, I'd suggest getting a set that goes up to…

The best shoe is the one that has been sized and measured for your foot specifically, not everyone is the same. For me though, my favorites have been my Vibram's. Best shoes I ever bought and I will continue to buy them again and again.

To lose weight and body fat, eat at a calorie deficit. To gain strength and muscle definition ("tone"), lift weights. You won't gain muscle, except for newbie gains, while lifting in a deficit but you will gain some strength and some slight muscle definition. To be most accurate with your calories, weigh all solids and…

I work in the personnel and accounts department at my job (we're a small office so it's all wrapped up in one), so I can tell you that you can take a complaint against the employee to HR and they will thoroughly investigate the matter.

HAHAHA!!!! Just ignore her ignorance. If she's a personal trainer I'd be worried for anyone she trains, but if she just mainly sits behind the counter then don't worry about it. I hear it from my husband all the time, "babe I don't want you to get too big, keep it light," I just smile and nod and keep on doing my thing.…

I'm a hunter, so lots of hiking during the fall, winter, and spring. I love lifting, running with my dog, kayaking, and shooting my bow. I used to dance in highschool and college so I like doing zumba and other forms of dance (contemporary ballet is my forte), but I try to mix it up as much as possible.

Well if you've been at it for 3 months and you've lost 1 pound per month, then that means you've lost 3 pounds so far which is a really good loss in my opinion. I wouldn't worry about what that person said about cardio and strength training, just exercise to fit your health and fitness goals. If what you're doing now is…

Congratulations Isabelle!!! That is a really exciting moment :smile:. Well pulled out my Zumba DVD this morning and had fun with that but I'm really looking forward to my lifting session this afternoon for no other reason than I get to pick up heavy things lol. My husband makes me laugh though cause he's always telling me…

This is Little Bit, cause she's fat but only a little bit. She wanted me to take her to work with me. I also have two other cats, one just had babies, and a pitbull boxer mix named Tyson, he's my running buddy.
