Yess, the only peruvian thing I’ve incorporated is the rotisserie chicken marinade. Low in sugar, except it has like 755mg of sodium. 😂 Idc though, I use it for my baked chicken breast tenderloins so I get my fix. And ofc paired with one serving of yellow chili hot sauce/cream. 🥴

Women sizes in general makes no sense 😭 I’d take measurements and then go online shopping from there, a lot of retailers will have size charts too.

Pictures that keep me going 😭 This was prob 3 years ago?? I was at my lowest (155-160??), but definitely more confident. Then just this year, I’ve gained a lot of weight and just saw a pattern of how I tend to cover up. (Club, Pre-quarantine) (May 2020, new job as a systems engineer) No alcohol for me right now either, I…

I accepted this challenge solely based on impulse, now I’m using this as a kickstart. I am determined to keep it going, what I do miss is Peruvian food. I have stopped eating Peruvian food because it because it usually incorporates rice and other starches. I do believe it is healthier, but eventually I will incorporate…

After the challenge is over, I won’t restrict myself as much in regards to fatty foods like red meat. My go to meal is zucchini spaghetti with lean ground turkey. I would then start making smoothies with fruits, I try to only treat myself with strawberries. Right now, I’ll have a banana when I’m really craving sweets.…

It depends on how busy I am that day. I found just this week I’ve been struggling with fitting in the 1,200 calories. It fluctuates with my workload and study. I always meet my protein goals for the day, or usually exceed them even if I’m below 1k a few days. I am not getting enough iron so I am taking supplements with…

So I’m on my third week of this challenge and I feel really good. I have been consistent with exercising everyday (3 days kickboxing, 4 days doing 20 mins HIIT workout). Now I wake up in the morning so much quicker than before, I used to lay in bed forever trying to find the energy to get up. I’m down to 181 lbs, but…

For me to be at a healthy weight I need to be at a minimum 120lbs. I’m 5’0” and currently weight 185lbs. I will take this challenge as a kickstart and plan on losing 2 pounds per week at least. Once this challenge is over I’ll be setting it back to .5 pound a week, if I get more then that’s great too. Also, I absolutely…

I’m aware, I’m now following MFP’s plan of 2 lbs per week. That’s why it put me on the 1200 calorie plan. I still like to have some type of accountability, so I’m still doing the challenge which would require that I attend kickboxing classes 3 times per week.
-
I try to wear my apple watch to account for any activity I do throughout the day. I try to meet the 1200 goal, but somedays I don't meet that as I usually don't eat food after 8PM.

I should have thought of that before weighing in, adding extra weights lmao they didn't pat me down or anything. I didn't think I was going to sign up for the challenge initially. I was just there to check out the gym, but also in the back of my mind I was really motivated to go back to the weight I was back in April of…

Thanks for your advice! 🙃

I’ll look at it as paying $27 per kickboxing class, cheaper than SoulCycle. This way I try to justify my impulse buy for this unrealistic challenge. I’m really glad I didn’t sign up for the membership when they first offered it, but I really do enjoy the classes. I’m still definitely motivated and I’m still committed to…

Oof. This challenge I’ve accepted from a kickboxing gym. So they’ll require that I attend 3 sessions per week and meet with a nutritionist/coach my 3rd and 6th week for the weigh-in. So it’s whatever comes first the 25lbs or 6% body fat, I’m focusing on building muscle instead so I hope to meet the body fat percentage. I…

That requires effort. Still relates to getting to know ppl better I think

When people stand too close to me, I like to keep it at least 3ft distance.

What brought you to this section of MFP?

When he carries my drunk self to bed and makes sure I drink a glass of water before falling sleep.

Why would you ask for the code if you don't even understand it? So annoyingg, shouldn't waste my time. This new director literally already asked me the same question for the past 3 months, and told her no every time. Why do you think it's going to change. You can't even do basic computing functions, sit down Carol.

When I did my roadtrip to Florida (15hr), I had a huge cooler and filled it with a bunch of ice. Just make sure your food is tightly sealed. Even if you do go to restaurants, usually they have a healthy options. BUT to save you money, I'd suggest just bringing your own fruits, yogurt, and for meats I had cut up rotisserie…

Yes! I usually have one shot of espresso with vanilla premier protein, add some ice and I'm set!

My basic jiu jitsu skills might not work on someone who looks like they do MMA more than I do. So, no.

We had catered biscuits this morning, I couldn't hold back. Put some butter and grape jelly on it too. :# I regret it already, but so good!
