Was that 32 to me?
-
VARIETY! Every few weeks change exercises, routines, or reps/sets. If you feel that you could push out a few more reps than def increase the weight!
-
22?
-
How my clothes fit for sure. The feeling of pants squeezing to the point that your stomach overflows just plain SUCKS!
-
Oh I weigh myself every day also :) Like you, I have figured out my pattern. I meant that for others it may be discouraging to see a gain even if it is normal. I am not saying I am not thinking "damn!" when I see the scale up 5 lbs, but I know it is normal.
-
I eat instant also and believe it's fine. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
-
I have eaten oatmeal every single day for the past 3 years or so. In my opinion, it is truly one of thebest breakfast foods besides eggs :) I buy weight control and mix in flaxseed. Plus it is something I could eat 20 times a day ha!
-
Multi V Fish Oil Vitamin D Lysine (for skin and lips) I also use a scoop of Whey after I workout and Flaxseed in the morning mixed with my oatmeal.

You can work out anytime. The best time is when you feel the most energetic!
-
Go by how your clothes feel. The scale is always fluctuating so it may discourage you. If I eat a sh*tload one day, the scale will seriously go up like 7 lbs and go down 7 lbs within the next 2 days. Or you could always get it measured by a professional :)

I hear ya and it sucks! I go through phases where it seems like everyday I feel tired. I actually posted a similar topic on here ha! Try vitamin D, a multi-vitamin, and fish or salmon oil. Also, you could try a fiber supplement to ger rid of the nasty waste! (gross I know but true!)
-
This is so true!
-
Is Metamucil a fiber supplement??? I used to take FiberCon and it worked! Thanks for reminding me that I have to start again :)
-
South Beach is a step up from Atkins I believe. It at least allows more types of food such as fruit!
-
Do you take the fiber supplement along with eating foods with fiber? What is the supplement called?
-
Whey shakes...Tofu
-
Diets never last. Make a lifestyle change!
-
It is basically going to come down to eat more throughout the day and drink water. Good advice!
-
Try drinking a few glasses of water and also green tea!
-
You can find vitamin D in small gel capsules.
-
Where do you get it and does it replace a multi-vitamin?
-
If there were calories in sarcasm I would be a beast!
-
Without vitamin D you can def tell a difference in mood and energy level.
-
I know exactly how you feel! I despise the days that I feel sluggish!! I am a coffee drinker and sometimes that does not help because my body is used to it. I take the correct vitamins but still feel tired some days even with 8 hrs of sleep. I think it can depend on the day, your mood, and maybe the food you consumed. This…
-
Is this post a joke?? Come on now.
-
Sounds great! Good luck!
-
Good post. I just don't know where to add more food!! I eat 4-5 times a day and try to get the necessary foods for each meal.
-
I do not track every tiny thing haha. I hardly do my food journals. I did one yesterday and can't believe it said I should eat more! I eat 5 times a day! I believe it will help to track but I don't think one bite will do total damage!
-
I would like to start trying your split. I have always done shoulders with chest and triceps but it's a *****!! I could probably get more out of my workouts by making shoulders their own day. Right now my chest and shoulders ache!
