Wait, what's wrong with the phrase "clean eating?" I'm a healthy diet noob and I don't know exactly what "clean eating" is exactly, but I thought it was when you eat unprocessed fresh food. Can someone explain what it actually is and why it's so terrible?

I wish women had the option to go around without a shirt on, but my female nipples are offensive.

When I happen to exercise in the morning, I at least try to have a banana, yogurt, or anything easy to eat beforehand. I feel pretty faint when I try and do any kind of lifting on an empty stomach. If I eat an actual meal, I wait 30 minutes so I don't accidentally throw up everywhere.

I'm just doing the deficit for a "casual" weight loss to get more muscle definition (I have no real goal date) but most of the food logging is to make sure I'm not eating too much sugar/fat and teaching myself portion sizes again. Thanks!

You're talking it like I'm saying the OP isn't doing anything better than sitting on the couch--which I'm not. Please don't twist my words, nor put meaning behind them that isn't there. And actually, I used to be a cardio bunny. I ran 5 miles a day, 6 days a week. I also ran using walking shoes for the first month because…

I used a bad word in my last post and I pointed out the "kitten" filter, but I instead just took the bad word out. It was @$$ by the way.

Jogging is typically a slower, less strenuous, lower impact form of running. But I did say "full on running around," not just running. livestrong.com/article/475894-difference-between-jogging-running/

I don't really do circuit training, but I think as long as you're having enough protein you should be okay :)

I read your comment in a different thread that you don't want to do weight lifting though, is that correct?

DO NOT. Lock your knees. When doing anything. I've heard stories of people's legs folding like a flamingo oh god I'm getting nauseous thinking about it please no...

How on earth can you be full on 1,000 kcal?? I'm slightly jealous. I just ate 1,300 kcal in my cheat meal on Saturday :anguished: #neverlosingweight

If you're jogging and doing it for exercise (not competitive), I don't see a reason to waste your money on new shoes. If you want to see if new shoes will make your jogging better, you can pick out a pair and try them out. If you end up thinking you can keep your old shoes a little longer, you now have a back up pair for…

Circuit is like a mixture of cardio and strength training. It basically makes you do 500 things at once. I've never done it but my co-worker talks about it all the time and it sounds like the worst thing ever. Cute Togepi btw.

I gained 10 pounds in a year and I solely weight train. Are you happy with how your body looks? That's the important part--not your weight. I'm cutting some weight right now for more muscle definition, but I'm overall pretty happy with what I've got going on :)

What you said: let the weight come down to the floor after you get about knee high This is what I said: at the top of their deadlift motion, DROP the barbell Do you see what you're trying to defend and what I'm annoyed about? They're not the same :) My friend is pretty good at not being obnoxious. Even though he drops…

Wow, thank you for finding the only thing that might actually get me to do some cardio.

Dumbbells are made of rubber. They make a dull boing noise. No problem. Barbell exercises make noise. The bar and hole of the weight plate have space to make sound. The plates will hit together and make sound. No problem. People who every time, at the top of their deadlift motion, DROP the barbell like they just roasted…

ANY AND ALL THE CARBS.

I wear makeup to the gym because I wear makeup to work and I go to the gym right after work. I'm not about to carry around makeup removing wipes just so people don't wrongfully judge me. Soooo sorry sir, next time I'll make sure to show up in my retainers and my gardening clothes.

Same. Barbell hip thrusts are my #1 booty workout. Straight-legged instead of traditional deadlifts for me after though :)

So you know how it feels when a customer comes in 10 minutes before closing and has absolutely no regard to the fact you actually have a life outside of work? So you must have never complained about any aspect of any job you've held. Yes, it is her job. It is also our jobs as decent human beings to be considerate of…

Our cleaning lady, Pat, gets paid to clean our office buildings, but that doesn't mean I go around leaving trash all over the ground.

This is exactly why I have 3 on my wrists at all times. My hair is so thick that it only has a possibility of staying up with two ties, and an extra for when one inevitably breaks.

*Dislaimer: I'm wearing a silicone bra. The tattoo isn't crooked either; it looks that way because of how my arm is stretched upwards. This was my third tattoo (I have four). My friend had recently killed himself and small group of us were all really close. Back at the University of Michigan, our group was known as the…

Oven fried chicken leg/thigh, two sliced roma tomatoes, one green bell pepper, and one 100 calorie package of Enlightened Crisps. 495 kcal with 46g of protein whoo hoo!

During the work week I have a protein shake and Greek yogurt. I used to also have two hard boiled eggs, but those made me really gassy... :s My cheat meal is usually breakfast on Saturday and it normally is: three egg omelet with tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, spinach, topped with melted cheddar cheese and basil; four strips…

Anything that can be sore while allowing me to use a toilet normally :D

The second day is the worst for me. The day after an intense leg day I'll feel fine and think, "oh dang, I'm a freakin' boss" and then in the middle of the night I'll try to go to the bathroom and it's the biggest struggle of my life.

OP didn't make her feel anything. Life is how we take it.

I work in a crisis call center, so there are sweets and other "comfort foods" literally every day in the kitchen. The other day someone offered me an Asiago bagel and it pained me to decline. But I looked less bloated today so I guess that's nice...
