I would use shredded zuccini instead of rice and omit the brown sugar.

Your BMI and Body fat would allow you a few more lbs...but I agree with Mel...you have to assess how you look and feel and decide for yourself.

When we first start working out we gain weight due to water retention in the muscles. Working those muscle creates small tears which cause a healing response which involve water retention. after we have been working out for a while we can still have the same type of response when we push ourselves harder. Once we have gone…

I also do peanut butter and celery....with or without raisens

I mix 4 oz Greek yogart, fruit, 1/2 scoop protein powder and any spices or flavoring I might want and freeze them in a baggie....I do several ahead of time then I take them out of the freezer the night before and blend in a bullet mixer with milk...nice protein smoothie. Some examples are below: 1.Pumpkin, cinnamon,…

I had a great day :) Hope you did too

Love this one too...I am with you here girl :)

Great song :)

I do spinach salad with raspberries, almonds , onion and chicken with minimal dressing

Isn't there a song that says " your body is a paradise and I need a vacation tonight" love that too...can't think of the name or artist though....

You and Tequila....drives me crazy too...

My hubby won't give an opinion on whether he/guys prefer real of fake boobs....what do you think.....I could use a few Male opinions here....my hubby just says do what you want...but I know he is a boob man.....it frustrates me that he won't tell me if he would prefer if I leave them small and natural

You and tequila....also Somewhere with you...both Kenny Chesney

Thank you for your post...it is so true :) and a great reminder to all of us

Thank you all for your opinions...the boobs look nice in the pic....but can you say padded push up....lol I am still really torn about the implant option....is natural the way to go? even if they aren't even a "B" ?...when they have been a "DDD" my entire life?

Kelsully very good response, i agree it has to do with how the individual perceives their exertion for the day based of their normal lifestyle. And In my opinion, we are all here to help each other....and we don't know where others have started from...so we should be encouraging and motivating...we should not knock what…

If it is extra activity...like dancing with the girls....that is a workout to me. My goal is to add and keep those extra activities in my life so it depends on your point of view and what tour personal goals are....I wouldn't count vacuuming or mopping but if I was doing spring cleaning all day I mifht count some of it,…

all time heaviest weight -310 LBS CW- 166lbs UGW 150lbs

That question is loaded, there are many factors that play into the safety of this....first of all any underlying health conditions. If you are healthy and have progressed to this point it is likely you can handle an increase barring any health concerns....remember the formula is based on the norm...everyone varies in…

Fit and tatted is sexy on men and woman...Esp. During those sweaty workouts...just something about it

Welcome :)

I am a new too and would love it if all of you added me....I greater the support we have the more likely we are to reach our goals!

Love BigDaddyBRC's idea but if it is not an option then I agree with hit the gym...I love my gym....I go there regularly...even in the summer! I have met so many people there, and we all have the same purpose in mind...and we hold each other accountable for being there! It is a lot easier to go knowing you have people to…

My sleeve was done on 8/30/10.... it is life changing and a wonderful tool....but as we all know it is only a tool...we still have to work at it ...glad to meet you all:wink:

To eradicate a disease vaccinations are the answer...if it were not for vaccinations small pox would still be around...as with anything, there are of course risks and we all have to determine if the risk are worth while.

I agree with Chris...This whole journey needs to be about you and what you want...I spent 20 years overweight...putting everyone ahead of me...this last year I was forced to focus on me.....it is a great adventure...take the time to learn who you are and what you want...that is the first step to success.

Thank you:smile:
