I can only say tackle one at a time, don't change too much too soon. Make a list of things that you know you can live without and things you must have. Then accomodate your lifestyle to include those choices, deprivation will lead to binges or failure, so include the foods, even bad ones, that you know you truly want to…

Couldn't agree more and you look amazing!

no I don't...and it works for me

Ok..I feel the need to update. She gave him the bear...HE LOVED IT! lol..they have a pic on facebook with the bear sitting in a popcorn bucket with 3D glasses on! He actually bought her sugar cookies in the shape of star wars characters. Who knows some serious connection may be happening here....if they show up dressed to…

We're all at the mall now...she caught a glmpse of the star wars bear in the display..that's what started this whole mess!! lol..say yes cause it's impulse?? we're still debating it!!! lol moved onto the coach store...but she wants to go back!

neither do I ..but I still think it's pretty cool..even if it ends up as a chew toy for his dog..who's named after a star wars character (Sidious) ..I think the fact that it's a build a bear isn't a factor as much as it's a star wars bear.

omg!!! :blushing: :devil: :smokin: if she is...she's not talking!!! lol

I agree...it's not a ring...no commitment, just cute.

HAHAHAHAHAH!! thank god she didn't meet him online!! lol

hahaha! she can choose btw a storm trooper and Darth Vader...haha! he likes Darth maul, which they don't have!...but it's build a bear!! only two choices! we're here right now...trying to figure this out!!!! lol

AGREE!!!! he sucks

absolutely do it on your off days..you can do cardio everyday..as far as adding it, I find the best way is under dancing, general seems to be the most accurate.

I pre cook all my meat for the week, I weigh my portion before I add it to my stir fry's whatever, that way Iknow exactly what i'm taking in

I agree....I put protein powder inmy food...mix it with oatmeal and yogurt...but you can get your protein source from means other then a shake..I don't do shakes well either..I rather eat then drink my protein. my post workout meal is typically chicken breast and steamed asparagus, or cottage cheese and a banana, tuna…

I've travelled every state in the US. I;m Canadian, I found San Diego so friendly, the friendliest place i've visited aside from Florida and Georgia. And San Diego was the most beautiful place that I found that had sooo much to do,...quirky shops and high end retail, the ocean, I was there in September, 6 weddings on the…

I never claimed I was giving medical advice. I answered her question, i'm sure the poster knows without your help that most on here are only giving advice and not to take such advice as gospel, give the poster a little credit. I am however a registered dietician.

That is not a general rule of thumb..your weight loss may slow....but if you continually eat below 1200 this will put you in a deficit that will absolutely force your body into losing weight..you just stall it...then it kicks back in to weight loss mode...you will never see an anorexic who is overweight simply because…

The‘starvation mode’ claim contains some truth. When you limit your calories a significant amount, your body’s metabolism does take notice. It will slow itself by making all of your body’s processes more efficient. It’ll do more, with less. Where the starvation mode claim goes wrong is in it’s implication that your body…

I've never done anything but zig zag my calories, I eat back exercise calories rarely..if i'm hungry I eat, but otherwise I go by my caloric intake and not by expenditure...not for everyone, works for me.

egg whites and steel cut oats

That statement is simply not true...every single bodybuilder I compete with, uses fat burners..they do work...I use them 1 month pre comp...and they absolutely give results...I went a different route this past October and used Waterex, not a fat burner but a water reducer...I definitely noticed a difference..just throwing…

exercise, especially in excess can definitely supress the appetite..that being said..my off day...really don't have one..by off means 1 day a week I don't lift weights but Ido cardio every day..i'm always hungrier! every single one of them...I always make my off day my highest calorie day..I zig zag my calories, and…

I agree...I do the hires for our nutrition department in a hospital....honestly, I don't give a darn about your GPA I will be more impressed with relevant work experience/volunteer work then Iwill be that you graduated with honours. It's a great achievement, but it doesn't let me know that you will fit in with my…

Check out Tosca Reno....big time clean eating warrior..many cookbooks

weights are the only way to change the shape of your body...wish more women lifted.

You can safely take in 1.5 grams of protein per pound and you'll be totally fine...I'm 115lbs and take in 180+grams a day...no worries

I do barbell curls with a 75lb EZ bar....I increase the weight as soon as 8 reps is easy..up it goes...but like every workout, I have times where I work at 4-6 rep range, for strength, then at 8-12 rep for muscle definition and 15++ for endurance...you need to be working at most levels...The biggest problem with bicep…

by day as well..for the exact same reason! lol

I keep most of my gym time to bench-180 squat-245lbs deads 325lbs. this makes up my standard lifting...Iuse to be competitive in powerlifting, along with my brother, who is still currently ranking in the nationals..but i've swayed into bodybuilding, adding in isolation, and higher rep schemes...it's working nicely...but…

^^ this....but I don't eat all back...some days some...some days more I burn on average 1000-1200 caloreis a day...i'm only 115lbs..it takes me 3-4 hours to achieve that number and i'm not walking at a brisk pace..if you know what I mean..but i'm an athlete...so it's different!
