+1 - Great post! :)

I think she's torn. BUT, I think she also has the ability to "play" any role when need be. I think it was overall a good episode and I'm looking forward to next week.

I (personally) think you should make sure you're meeting your calorie goal before you start worrying about the macros. One step at a time. ;)

You're not really only eating 500 - 800 calories a day, are you? That's all I see logged a few days recently. Just wanted to make sure you're not eating too few calories. ;)

No problem. And look at it this way. Your calorie goal is 1421/day and that 'should' result in an approximate loss of 1 lb per week. (I'm not sure if this is your setting - just making an example.) That's probably a daily deficit of 200 calories or so. Say you meet your calorie goal each day M-F. You've got a 1000 calorie…

I'm sorry, everyone. I believe the challenge is full for the current time period.

Yes. Also, making sure to log everything everyday will help you to make better choices too. You'll think "Do I really want/need this?" :flowerforyou:

Your weight can fluctuate by 2-5lbs daily. You want to make sure you're weighing yourself at the same time of day (preferably first thing in the morning), in the same clothes (or none at all), and after you've used the restroom. If you're already doing that, and you saw that much of a gain, I would think it's just water…

That's because it tastes like a sand shake. :expressionless:

This exactly. Make sure your before/after images are watermarked. :angry:

I had my 4th (and final) c-section back in November. Not nursing and trying to get about 1300 net calories per day. I sent you a request. :flowerforyou:

...from the other side... :grey_question: :joy: :smirk:

I just had my 4th boy in November. I'm 5'4" & Pre-pregnancy weight was already too high at 175-ish. Weighed around 230something when I went in to have him. Was down to 210 at christmastime, and down to 191.8 now. Looking to get down to 135-ish. Best of luck! :flowerforyou:

What in the world are back abs? I'm so confused.

I agree with you. When you first start and have little to no warmups (*or if you're further along and don't warm up propertly/at all*), it COULD take 30 minutes. If you warm up properly and take proper rest periods, it probably takes longer than 30 minutes - especially if you've added in any accessory work. Here's what I…

Great work - I have that same blue sports bra! :)

I think Rick is just done taking crap. He's determined to keep his group safe at all costs. And to be fair, Carol lost her only child in a terrible way. Last thing she wants to see is Maggie lose her baby.

I literally just did the same thing yesterday. It wasn't my birthday, but I did a little over a mile in heels. Luckily, no blisters for me though. :(

All of the above. Seriously. The back of your protein bar should give you a serving size in grams. They're allowed to be off by a certain %. Same goes for prepackaged string cheese. And especially nuts.

It's truly only overwhelming at first. And what's a few extra seconds to weigh something out in the grand scheme of your daily schedule? Say you measure out your chips by the # of chips on the label. It says something like "10 chips/28g = 100 calories per serving" (numbers are made up to make the math easier) If you only…
