If it is under 1000 calories and you complete the diary it doesn't show up in the news feed. So how will anyone know. I know this because I accidentally clicked complete diary. It showed a warning and it didn't show up in the news feed

Giving up alcohol makes a HUGE difference. I am now seeing the scale move in a positive way

Absolutely

Yes me! I have been recomp for few months! I might lose 2 lbs but mostly have maintained my weight and have gained muscle. This month I've decided to cut a lot just for April. I am not liking it too much because I am very hungry!!!!! I dont want to lose the muscle. I am trying to lose the fat. But I will see how this goes.…

Wow you are amazing!!! Such an awesome transformation!!!

This ^^ I was just about to ask how much protein do you eat?

Congratulations on your weight loss! Very impressive! Always exercise that will help you to maintain easy. And of course food intake.

I used to run all the time mainly 5ks and outside leisure. I started weight lifting 3 years ago and got addicted to it. I began progressive lifting and I work with a trainer who is all about great form. I still run but only on TM to get some cardio in. But like others have said progressive lifting and particular attention…

when i get over 200 lbs I take my time each time i do a set to make sure my form is absolutely perfect and i wear wrist straps because my wrists are weak and I am not trying to focus a grip and take away from focusing on form. I am so not trying to pull anything in my back

I do them continuously. Except if I am doing a max PR then it is 1 rep for me. But if I put it down reset and do it again then it is not counted as a set. It's just 1 and 1 LOL

It was funny because when I got to 225 I was nervous thinking about how hard it was last year. Then I pumped them out like nothing so I was like OH WOW OK maybe I can go further!!😆

Last August 2020 my 1 rep max PR for DLs was 225 LBS. I had hopes to advance further than that but was not sure if I could progress that far. Today I am so excited picture above is 245 LBS max!! I'm so excited how strong I have progressed since then!!

South Beach Slim Fast (that only lasted couple days) WW (This worked but this before they had an APP and we had to log everything in a paper journal and look up all the points in a book) :#

Chocolate Malted Milk Balls!!

We were doing squats this morning. 90 degrees (parallel) or lower.

Week 7 CW 186.8 (Up .8lbs) BF% 38.3 ( Up 1.1) MM 64.4 (Down .6)

Ok I googled it. That theory does not make any sense. Your preset weight is hardwired in your DNA and weight loss surgery is best to get past the preset weight is absurd. Weight loss surgery like anything else forces the body to take in less calories. Hence you will lose weight. This sounds like some money making thing.

Can someone tell me what "set point" is?

Amazing work!!! You look phenomenal!! True testimony to if you are consistent and patient you can lose no matter where you start in your journey and how old you are!!

WOW!!! Amazing! You look awesome! Your story is so inspiring!
