Respectfully, is there a possibility that you might be eating to compensate for something going on in your mind or life?? Some people binge eat during depression, or while angry, lonely, etc.... There is the conscious mind that sees what you're doing, and the unconscious mind that has its' own itinerary. Best wishes

I'm 55, and working out, running, swimming, yoga, etc.... And my waist line is where I want it to be (well close to where I want it) but the abs are no where to be seen..... I can feel them, just can't see them May I ask your Carb/Protein/Fat percents? and daily caloric intake?? And congrat on great work!!!I I'm Canadian…

Big fan of Alpen (No Sugar Added) with a little coconut or almond milk

hiking, biking (mt and rd), weight lifting, swimming, and currently learning to run

28 kilometres, with a short break for water and snacks

Is there anything on the market that REALLY does help with joint recovery?? Glucosamine, Chondroitin, MSM..... etc???

Perhaps when you attend a social, you bring a plate of something "nutritionally relevant" to your lifestyle "for everyone".... allowing you to have a better choice of foods to offset what your family is providing? Best of both worlds, you still get some goodies, but you won't blow out your nutrition completely for the day.

Multivitamins Fish oil for the Omegas with Vit D Whey protein BCAAs trying MSM for my joints

Love my Garmin Vivoactive HR, only draw back was that the wrist HR was a little less reliable when I am weight lifting, purchased a chest strap HR monitor to match with my wrist unit and that problem is long gone.

30 pounds over 4 months, (the Christmas season plateau'd me for a while) :) Now "Recomping" the rest of my body. Good luck!! :)

Flo Rida ALL of them on random :)

Unfortunately, for your added weight, air isn't getting to areas of your skin (belly buttons, folds, under breasts, etc) and bacteria has probably taken hold. Bathe the area(s) with an antibacterial soap. Allow the areas to dry well before putting on clothing, and wear clothing that "breathes" lets air in. Some folks have…

Chicken breasts, Plain Greek Yogurt 0% , Bananas

Say "Thank you very much" and then turn the conversation around towards your friend :)

Found a way for artistic self expression through fire dancing I've always had a shy (read insecure) tendency, You can't be shy on stage in front of an audience of several thousand!!

If you open up your diet log, we can see what you're working with..

2540 calories on non exercise days based on a 7/10 active daily life style rating and maintenance/recomposition nutrition plan Plus: 1 hr x 4 days/week weight training 30 min x 4 days/week arc trainer HIIT 15 - 25km hike every other week I add/eat my exercise/hiking calories I'm 1.83 Metres tall, 72.5kg and 55 yo

Got "talked" into a 100 pushups a day challenge by some of my 20 something friends (I'm 55), got up to 30 per set, and was getting the 100 done per day for two weeks, and then an impingement in my shoulder sidetracked my progress..... My silly brain still thinks I'm 20 something too.. :/

Lately, I've been listening to Flo-Rida, all their tunage. Most of their "boppy" songs' bpm match my strides per minute on my Arc Trainer. High energy too for weight pulling and pushing! I just loaded all their songs into my MP3 player and hit random.

Me too! It is suggested to check it 2 - 3 times a day initially, to determine if there are patterns to note (for instance morning Hypertension). I just monitor for general health (border line hypertension in the past), so a nice little excel spread sheet and graph (with trendline) and I'm comfortable with my level of…

Russian twists with a 20lbs Kettlebell! 3 sets x 12 Makes me feel like I've really worked out

Any idea of your sodium intake?? Has been linked to hypertension... An "average" amount would be around 2300mg/day A Cardiac diet would probably be around 1300mg/day

In addition, consider a whey isolate, like Dymatize ISO-100, very little or no fat, lots of protein (approx 25g per scoop) and usually relatively low calorie too!! approx 100 cal per scoop.....

0% greek yogurt.... lots of protein no fat. add a little fruit to perk up the flavour. I have a 2% greek yogurt (coconut) 100g portion, daily as my "reward for "behaving"" :)

Garmin VivoActive HR with chest HR strap, works beautifully! Especially when weight training

Hi, You don't mention how much you walk (distance x intensity) A walk around the block is better than not walking at all A kilometre walk in 12 minutes is better than a kilometre in 24 minutes An hour walk up hill is better than an hour walk on flat land and as mentioned before, all that walking will be negated if your…

Absolutely!! Working Xmas day too, so just another day for me At least the gym will be quiet, not like the first couple weeks after New Years Resolutions are started!!
