I have been doing stronglifts for about a month i think... I've lost an inch pretty much everywhere.. But it might also be from eating reeeaaallly healthy.. Oh and i've lost 3 pounds since then, ha. I don't really know what weights i started with, but as of now... squat - 110 bench - 80 OHP - 60 or 65... i dont remember DL…

I want to do a few zombie runs :) and some obsticle 5ks or something.. Hopefully a half marathon too!

Start lifting heavy... ASAP!! Buy The new rules of lifting for women, or start doing stronglifts 5x5!!

Try focusing on eating more protein, it WILL fill you up.

One that i can remember is eating a whole jar of peanut butter...... I also ate whole boxes of cereal and it was sooooooo painful but i couldnt stop! Glad those days are over... verrrry glad!

Good luck! I quit for the same resons before too. I gained all my weight back, but since my break i feel much healthier about logging and everything.

Kinda want to try it..... Maybe once i hit a platoue or whatever first... I don't want to chance anything now that i've finally started losing weight again!

Well to get that muscle definition you need to lift heavy... girls do not bulk up! Plus building more muscle will help burn fat fasting while keeping lean body mass, so you will look all "toned". Don't be afraid of lifting heavy... I think you should:) As for protein powder.... GNC's wheybolic chocolate is seriously the…

I smoked when i first started working out... I was out of shape too, but i think that the smoking was'nt really helping. I thought running 1 mile was amazing... Lol. I adapted to it quickly but my breathing would get weezy and i'd cough a lot after. I Ran my first 5K when i still smoked and i think my time was about…

GO FOR IT! Obviously you really think this is what you need to do.. Even though everyone else is telling you how to. If this is what you need to get motivated then looks like you already know whatcha gata do! Buuuut, im just ganna guess... You gained weight from over eating and eating junk food... So now you'r going to be…

It tastes good in water, and in milk too. After i lift i usually make in in a blender with milk, ice cubes, 1 banana, whole rolled oats, sometimes spinach (can't even taste it) or peanut butter.... You can add greek yogurt, honey, flax, pretty much anything and it will taste good:) I have mized it in my oatmeal, it's not…

Wooot wooot! That's great to hear! :) I'm to the point where i could spend all my time in the gym.... I just love that place, lol. KEEP IT UPPP! :)

Just quit buying *kitten* to add to your coffee!! It's a sloooooow process... But first, you have to TRY.

I LOVE PROTEIN POWDER! It's really a personal preference though... I'd suggest just buying it with the coupon, use it up, and if it wasnt helpful than just don't get it again. Protein powders awesome... a great way to add extra calories and protein! Which is what you say you need anyways :)

Sweat peas!!!! I just have them steamed... Also, steamed brocolli and cauliflower are good... and steamed carrots!! You could put spinach on your sandwhiches instead of lettuce... And i even blend them into my protein shakes! Can't even taste the spinach but you still get the nutrients! :)

You can see the ratios on the smart phone app, and if you disagree with adding exercise cals theeeennn, don't add them! I think MFP is great!

Keeping losing weight to yourself? Or counting calories?? Mine are both pretty known.. By the few people that im really close to.

^ Listen to her!

Because everyone in this society strives for perfection, and in order to feel better about their flaws, they need to pick at everyone elses.... THIS SOCIETY SUCKS!

Just keep setting goals and you'll probably like it again. The only way to know the answer to your question is if you just get up and go ruuunnn! :)

I strongly recommend buying "The New Rules of Lifting For Women". It has sooooo much good information! The workouts get pretty complicated, and a lot of people quit it seems like(I did too), But i think it's good to read. The program for lifting i suggest is Stronglifts 5x5, It's free, and super easy to track.. And it is…

Liftings so much better.... But i think to start to like running you have to keep making goals and progressing.. I used to hate it too.. I don't do it much now, but i don't dread it or anything. Also, try doing HIIT on when your running or something. I feel like it's not boring at all this way.

Appleton, Wisconsin :)

I know!!! I think he wanted to be there the most!...

I'm not really for or against fasting... I think it would be interesting to try, but i only would for 24 hours... But why are you even fasting?! Now you'r going from eating 100 calories to none?

I looove how hip bones look, but curvy is really sexy..I know I'm never gana be the thin thigh gap and hip bone girl, so I am happy with curvy:) as long as I lose about 10 pounds, lower my body fat, and gain some muscle I eel be extremely happy with whatever the outcome is!

Uhuhh. Yeap! otherwise counting is kinda pointless if you arnt ganna count all your calories! And alcohol is actually proven to make you fat just so ya know. It lowers fat burning rates drastically.

Make small goals.... Go on the treadmill and walk... then decide to jog at a certain pace for just 1 min or so, then walk again and repeat. Keep on increseing your joging time and stuff like that. Also, LIFT HEAVYYYY!

Wooooo! Great job!! You look like a whole new person.

You look great!!!
