In the same boat! 5'4, 158lbs looking to be around 130. I got to 137 two years ago but let myself go with the food/beer combo at school. I love lifting but am currently taking a break to focus on running, aiming to run a 10km race for the first time ever in September. Been researching keto lately but haven't taken the…

Ten pounds lost would make me supremely happy, anything else above that is extra gold for me.

Count me in please. Doing Stronglifts three times a week and eat about 2200 calories (but also do the 5:2 fasting so 2 times a week it looks low but I only do this because it works for me and IF doesn't). I also play campus rec soccer, enjoy yoga, and try a jog occasionally.

Well done on all the hard work so far, you look amazing! Keep up the great work, you've definitely got what it takes in you to get where you want. As for working on that body hatred, try to turn it to the opposite as best you can - self love. I was once unhappy with my body too but have since changed to the opposite.…

The Tim Hortons method of making ice coffee is 1. Brew about 4-6 pots of coffee, put in large metal canteen thing. 2. Let coffee cool in fridge for 4 hours, bring it out. Last 12 hours on the floor. 3. Serve with preset amount of cream (aka a lot) and a pump of beverage base (a liquid sweetner thing; size small gets one…

Ice cream. It's 40C with the humidex and was calling to me all day, with fresh blackberries mixed in... Nope!

Sending you a friend request OP, hope you don't mind :) If anyone else wants to add me I try my best to be friendly to all those on here and especially in my friend list.

Rather boring dinner today with some broiled chicken breast, fried asparagus, and boiled baby carrots. Still works and was filling!

Don't really have all the answers you're looking for, especially anything calorie related, but may have some motivation to share with regards to DASH. In my Health Psychology course this semester we had to design a behavioural change plan that related to health and I choose to reduce sodium intake as I know it's…

I'm still very much a work in progress, gained about 7lbs since my lowest and now I'm back, but no matter where I am I always have hips and thighs of Thor. Love them. The red is me dress shopping for Valentine's day and the second one is me at my lowest-ish weight last summer.Happy to see such a hip-positive thread, loving…

Sent you a request as well. Love that you listed Buddhism as an inspiration, I've been really interested in it lately and would be glad to have you as a friend :)

Height: 5"4' Weight: 139 How long youve been lifting: 5 months Times per week: 3 Split routine or full body: full 1 REP MAX - Never have tested, never use a spotter. Here's my current 5 rep maxes, but still not accurate representations of what I can do because I'm still gaining on these with every work out Deadlift: 125x5…

Cymbalta's supposed to be weight neutral. My abnormal psych prof talked about it briefly - he mentioned how it was a newer choice for people/mainly women who had issues/fears of using medications associated with weight gain. As well my ex was on it for the 2 years we were together and I never saw any weight gain. Can't…

Wahoo! Awesome job! Great goals for the future too :)

I'm a third year psych major. Some rather joke courses this semester. Dreams and Dreaming Sleep and Arousal - harder than it seems as it has to do more with the neurochemistry and the science side of it Human Sexuality Creative Writing (Eng. department) Astronomy (first year course, physics department... I needed a science…

This is a couple things in one: NSVs, Measurements, and a bit of weigh in stuff. I started EM2WL in April. I never did the reset as I was only eating low calorie for about two weeks, max a month beforehand. I had a long break of bingeing/overeating before that since my last low calorie period (I ate 1300 calories a day.) I…

Went to a wedding last night and didn't end up eating my cut, actually went over my TDEE by 100 calories. Not really worried though, I've been pretty bang on with my numbers lately and my cut has been going well. I never did the reset but started eating more (1850) in April then bumped up to 2050 in June . For about two…

Wahoo for protein! That type of Kashi sounds really good, I'm going to have to give a try. As much as I want something protein filled for breakfast like eggs or bacon, it's not really achievable for me. Haha not crazy, good to see that you have such a positive mindset on this. Most would freak out with any gain. Also…

I've been at this for a while (started in November, restarted April) and when I originally started I didn't really tell anyone. I just made it known I was eating more healthy and that this was a lifestyle thing, and was quick to glare anyone who said it's a diet. It's not for me, and that's definitely been more of the…

Weight lifting! And also I'm a fan of Zumba, pilates, Jillian Michaels videos, HITT, jogging, archery, soccer, hockey, squash, kayaking, and swimming too.

Variety of reasons for me. 1. Reframed my mind, my perspective on food and my body. I learned to love myself more, to not worry as much as I have in the past, became less restrictive, more tolerant of mistakes and junk food, stopped obsessing over what the scale said, etc. 2. Upped my calories, a lot. I now eat my TDEE…

Well it's the 22nd and my month has ended! I was actually really scared for the last week to weigh in and was tempted to just not weigh in. But I did. I went from 143.8lbs to 139.8lbs in the past month, down 4lbs! The month was difficult, especially at first. At the beginning all I wanted to do was weigh in and I could…

A clap between push ups is my newest goal too! I think I'll hit it before I can do a pull up (or chin up) so that's my "short term" goal. Such a dream though, it'd be bad *kitten*.

I want this because of reasons.

I just started today, I just sent you a request :) Hope you don't mind, I'm loving what I've seen so far.

Bah, school is getting closer and I'm starting to think about these sort of things again. Good thread. - review my notes from lecture and readings regularly, not just before tests/exams. elaborate, make them good notes, do problem sets at the end of the chapter. really work on understanding rather than memorization. - be…

I've been watching my sodium for a couple weeks now, it's an interesting thing to watch, I'm glad to accept this challenge! Also two days til my birthday! I'll probably be late getting my points in because I'm busy all weekend.
