I do! Athough you have your daily goal if you don't hit your weekly because you WAYYY over do it Saturday & Sunday then you wont hit any of your goals! I usually take Sudnay off from the diet BUT I log it all.

I am doing HIGH carbs with low protein :).... but that'S because I am a junk food crazy person! Calories in calories out. And.... I tried the whole "clean food" and low carb thing. My body felt like freakin you know what and my workouts were crappy. Found that if I ate what I craved and listened to my body, my body felt…

Heck yah! But I get ravenously hungry if I do eat early in the morning about an hour later. She might just be the girl who needs a huge breakfast or maybe that will make it worse! Who knows. She has to find what works for her and her body and her lifestyle. As do you with yours! I tired eating later and larger later like…

THATS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! Thanks fhsjewfro.... This is why I don't eat breakfast... this happens to me. I am bookmarking it this time so I don’t loose it!!! Article is called "Why Does Breakfast Make Me Hungry?" http://www.leangains.com/2012/06/why-does-breakfast-make-me-hungry.html

The reason this happens is because your levels (I am sorry but I can’t remember the verbiage, too much for my brain to hanlde) are at their highest in the morning and they get the lowest at night like 20 something in the morning at only 4 at night. So if you have low body fat and eat something early in the morning your…

When I am that hungry I eat. I eat a granola bar so I can last an extra 2 hours. Nothing wrong with eating pretzels either. Just adjust your food later to compensate or go for a 15 min fast walk to burn it off so you even out. Either way listen to your body and do what works for you not someone else. Obviously waiting to…

HAH! Luckily, it was not chunky peanut butter! That could have gotton interesting!

Almost made my peanut butter sandwhich come out my nose! HAH!

Medically there might be something there but you have all cardio and no weights. You NEED to lift weights and more then a 3 or 5 pound bar 3 times a week. Legs, Arms, Back/shoulders, and core! You won't gain much muscle on a deficit however you will loose alot of body fat that way because it burns A LOT of calories and…

Whats your workout life like? What have you been doing this entire time. Have you had your thyroid tested?

You should eat around 1270 and then whatever you workout eat back. So if you burn 400 calories in your workout you should be eating 1670 calories that day. I would make sure you are effectively tracking your calories and exercises and not going over in estimations. Also you shouldn’t be doing the same thing every day.…

75.00 max for a family of 7 with diapers and formula included.... for everything! I price match at Wal-Mart and only by on sale in bulk. I use to do couponing too but not enough time now. We have a nice stockpile in the freezer. Especially when hamburger meat goes down to .99 a pound and chicken breast too we buy 50.00…

I eat 1550-1650 calories a day however I burn about 2100-2300 calories because I exercise alot. I usually have anywhere from a 500-800 deficit. How many calories are you eating a day and how much do you weigh?

Me... however I also added more exercising to balance it out. I am still at about the same deficit as when I was eating 1100-1200 calories however I am eating around 1550-1650 now. I am not loosing weight though but body fat, fyi. My goal is body fat though not so much weight loss.

It takes like 60 hours... he's right.

Nope! Do what works for your body. I have the same issue. Do you have low body fat? I read an article that stated if you have low body fat and eat breakfast that can mess with your glucose causing you to spike and want to binge. I found that was happening to me and then I would gorge. Its not when you eat but how many…

Yes it does! How much? No way of knowing only guessing. Another good way is rinsing your meat too if you have hamburger/turkey meat. I use 73% lean however the tray on our large grill is FULL to the rim with fat after I am done with only 4 burgers (1 pound of meat) so it at least is bumping my meat to 83% possibly more. I…

I am going to post what I put in another post for you.... Sit it out kiddo... you might be gaining some serious muscle. Do yourself a favor now. Throw the scale out, only check 1x a week if that, start using the measuring tape and invest in a body fat tester and use the mirror too! I went 3-4 weeks with no weight change, I…

You can gain anywhere from 1-2 pounds of muscle a week when you first start out. I went up 1.5 pounds too and I am on week 2. I also went down from 17.7% body fat to 17.2% this past week. Although, I think my gain was really water and food with a little muscle. p90x workouts are geared towards muscle building. If you don’t…

I like Ham & turkey too. I like having an egg white burrito with fat free cheese and ham all mixed together with some hot sauce. Or a chicken taco with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, all the good stuff and a ton of chicken on a low carb wrap if you want. Just fyi but I tried their high protein diet and I tanked BIG time. I…

NO! I have a calorie deficit of 500 meaning I burn lets say 2100 calories and eat 1600. I probably worded that wrong, HAH! ...Hah I did word it wrong... better? I fixed it :)

You will so get there you just need to loose some more body fat and then get a little muscle which will help hold everything together. You SO can do this!

I eat REALLY bad, ALOT of chocolate, carbs, you name it. The type of food doesn't have any barring on fat loss just your deficit which I usually keep around 500-800 calories. Although protein does help you build muscle I don't really tend to eat alot of it and if I eat alot of it I tend to feel ikky. I felt like garbage on…

Very nice!

krissagray - I'll hook you up... forgot the "/" after the last [ but before img you also need to click on the photo and get the actual website of the photo which is different. The website for your photo is actually...http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7111/7556048338_d813a0467a_n.jpg

Thanks.... I started seeing them really good about 3-4 months post partum. It really depends on how much belly fat you have to get through before you start to see them. And it depends on how your body burns fat and where too. I know girls that have the same set of Abs I do but have a 22% body fat because most of their fat…

Thanks... love you abs too! Very nice! Your avatar is kinda about what I am going for. Its going to take me until I am at around 16% body fat I image before I have them. At 17.2% now. :)

Sorry... hit the wrong button!

Will this work?? This is my second kid and I didn't have any before pics because I was so flabby! 32 weeks pregnant...I was WAY bigger at the end. 7-8 months post partum.... I need new photo's... it looks like my avatar now
