Welcome back!

I don't follow the meal plans, but I have my macros set to 40/30/30 (carb/fat/protein) and that seems to work, I tend to eat 5x a day anyways. Also, anything less than 1500 calories is much too low for me (5'4", 168lbs when I started). I am eating what the book describes as maintenance (1900 or workout days, 1600 on rest…

You look good, wear it!

Good idea! I'll have to try.

Thanks cloudbustr!

I wear my minimalist running shoes (not the 5 toed kind, but between that and a regular shoe). I wear them for the whole work (lunges, etc) out and for my running.

I wouldn't mind a few extra husbands, but no I would not share with other women....

Weekdays I eat after, otherwise my tummy would be too full and I would puke. On weekends when I have more time, I like to eat before, then give it an hour or two before I work out. I have more energy if I eat before, but I just don't have that kind of time on weekday.

Hello, I am 36, female. Looking to lose around 30lbs. I was going strong on MFP for a couple of months, but for some reason the last week has been a drag and I see my will slipping and food choices not so great. So here I am looking for more groups and new friends to help light a fire under my @ss again. My short term goal…

Cooking classes? It's a fun thing you guys can do together and might spark your interest in cooking.

Okay guys, thanks for the feedback, interesting variety of angles on it, I really appreciate it. I have some things to contemplate as I near the end of stage 1. Happy for more opinions if there are any.

Squeeze some lime or lemon into water. I have a soda maker, I usually squeeze citrus into soda water which resolves my soda cravings.

A thai dish my friend taught me: cook up ground chicken (1 lb) in large skillet and drain excess fat. add a chopped up red onion, mix up and let cool meanwhile mix together: lime juice (2-3 T.), chili pepper flakes and fish sauce (1 T.) mix in the dressing with the chicken/onion mixture then add chopped cilantro and some…

Bumping to see what comes up. I don't have an allergy, but my BF does so we do not have any in the house. I keep almonds which he is okay with in my desk drawer at work, but otherwise avoid them Always looking for more ideas for the both of us that don't require nuts.

I would say NROL4W is pretty basic. I had only done very weight lifting before I started it. Also, as a supplemen,t so you know you will be using correct form, you can look up the exercises on YouTube. I have looked online for modifications of exercises I can't do (lack equipment). Also, just take it slow, concentrate on…

My thought exactly. Loved that book!

I weigh almost daily, but I don't sweat the ups and down, I just have curiosity (I'm like my own little science experiment). If you think you will stressed out by normal daily ups-and-down, then I would suggest monthly.

Don't be so hard on yourself, you will look great. Have fun first of all. The guests will be looking at the bride and groom anyways, not worrying about you. I nice dress that isn't too clingy would be the most comfortable, you don't need to show off your back if that makes you uncomfortable. Sandals, or flats (high heels…

They only sell the tofu ones at my local grocer so that is all I have tried. The taste was fine, absorbed taste of the mushrooms I cooked them with. I followed the directions and rinsed them then microwaved them for 1 minute.

I don't usually log most house chores or gardening if it is the easy stuff, but I logged weed wacking and raking this weekend because it definitely felt like a work-out.

Whoever does the asking should offer to do the paying, at least on the first date. I always offered to split, sometimes the guy let me. I never held it against them if they let me.

About 5 years I was doing a lot of running, a couple half marathons, training for a tri-athalon. I had always been plagued by the foot pain that the doctors, physical therapists and guys in the shoe store attributed to the over-protonation (swollen feet, numbness, knee and ankle pain). I bought all the fancy supportive…
