I didn't gain weight but I stalled for 2 weeks before starting to lose again. From what I've read, it's mostly water retention from muscle repair so you shouldn't worry too much.

Thanks everyone who responded. Got a lot of great info! Will spend tomorrow checking the various sources you recommended!

Bodyweight exercises are strength training exercises that do not require free weights; the practitioner's own weight provides the resistance for the movement. (because Wikipedia phrases it way better than I would). Examples: push-ups, squats, lunges, crunches... I'm no expert so i can't answer the resistance band question,…

Nice abs and arms!

"The cake is a lie" is an internet meme that comes from the game "Portal". You probably read somewhere on the interwebs, it was all over the place.

Tell me I'm not the only one who thought it was a Portal reference! (The cake is a lie) (I don't really agree with the principle behind the story. It's okay to eat cake)

I see you've been flossing everyday! Great job!

No but I'd give them if needed. He knows my bank card pin code, though!

The closer to your goal, the slower the loss. You'll have to be patient! :)

Exercise excessively is never healthy. (and neither is fasting to make up for a binge). If you eat healthy 80% of the time, you don't need to "make up" for binges. Your body will naturally find a balance. I think that's what everybody should aim for in order to build a healthy relationship with food.

I don't "hint", I just straight tell him. :) Anyway, we won't do individual gifts this year... We're going to buy a crockpot! Money well-spent.

Hi there and welcome!

Thank you to everyone who added me or invited me to a group. I think I've responded to everybody but feel free to poke me if it wasn't the case!

I fully understand what you said and your post got me thinking. However, I am unable to make up my mind on this point! While I totally agree on how heavy the adoption processes are, the absence of any procedure scares me a little bit. We all know there are a lot of sick people in the world and I wouldn't want them to adopt…

I don't see anything wrong with someone backing up their arguments with their religion. Religious values are as valid as any others, even if I personnally don't share them.

Week 4 22/11/11 Thighs: 44.50 inches (this number was doubled) Arm: 22.50 inches (this number was doubled) Waist : 29 inches Hips: 34.25 inches Chest: 36.5 inches -0.5" I think I measured my chest wrong last week! I didn't deserve my third place!

Of course, you feel like eating more when exercising. It's like using your car for a long trip... Your car will need more fuel. So does your body when you work out.

Workout DVDs or exercisetv.tv :)

Condiments = food

Also, I think they're probably playing on the "less than xx cals is considered 0 cals" rule. Which means 1 serving still has a few calories and if you add servings up, who knows how many cals you finally end up eating?

I'm like you... I think I'm past my prime. At least, we can always work on how our body look. We can be sad old women with hot bodies!

You can and you must eat fat and carbs, you know!

Yes. That's how MFP is set up and that's why the site automatically add calories to your allowance when you log in exercise. HOWEVER... A lot of people here tend to overestimate their exercise calories (because MFP and gym machines usually do) and end up eating more than they should. So if you don't have a HRM, you…

I plan my meals at the beginning of the week but I was already doing so before changing to a healthy lifestyle. I just don't know how to do grocery shopping if I don't know what to buy in advance!

At first, I didn't even pause the video and let Jillian go on without me! ;-)

Never said a word about adoption processes. I know they're frustrating!
