  • Yeah - exercises focusing on the pecs/chest/core will firm up the muscles underneath, but if you've had a weight loss then you're probably going to have less-perky breasts. I went from a 34D at my high weight down to what I thought was a 34C - then I finally sucked it up, broke out the tape measure, and realized I should…
  • 5’8”. Left to right: 168lbs (2014), 137 lbs (2016), 129 lbs (yesterday!) Almost a 40 lb difference. The 168 to 137 was slow and steady. After that I backslid a little, got back up into the 140’s, and stayed there for about a year. Recommitted to hitting my goal of 130 at the beginning of 2018, and I’m pretty happy where I…
  • Definitely could use a little friendly motivation, too! :)
  • Chicken sausage - if you stick with the savory ones, they're pretty low-cal. Egg whites Low-fat mozzarella Popcorn Goat cheese One of my new go-to quick meals for when I don't want to cook is an omlette made with one whole egg and a couple of eggs worth of egg whites, some chopped up chicken sausage, whatever veggies I…
  • Budget it in! Last night we went out to dinner for a friend's birthday - rather than having restaurant dessert (expensive and probably not terribly tasty) we came home and had a heated-up paleo brownie and some halo top ice cream. Basically a brownie sundae for under 200 calories. :)
  • 5'7", 144 lbs. Working to get down to 135. MFP has me at 1390/day - I find I'm averaging around 1300 on non-workout days and 1500 on workout days.
  • Bell pepper "nachos" - red bell pepper cut into chunks, with lean chicken taco meat on top and a little bit of cheese. Broiled until cheese is melty. Add avocado, pico de gallo, and a tbsp of low fat sour cream. :)
  • Ugh - yeah, the new system is terrible. I felt like I could easily portion control with SmartPoints (still focusing on lean meats, veggies, etc) - but this new system is really messed up. I’ve been tracking here for the last five days, using a loose Whole 30-esque food list, and I’ve been really happy with that so far. I…
