thanks for the encouragement..you guys can do it...i can do it too!!

I do eat meat..but I can probably increase my portions :) 2 protien smoothies today...chachinnnnnng..lots of protien for me!!

I normally don't pay much attention to my carbs either..but I am really trying to focus on the protien. At least I am doing better than I was previously.

before.... and now

My must haves are: greek yogurt eggs whole grain bread skim milk lean meats (ham/turkey) chicken tuna skinny cow ice cream sandwiches smart pasta peanut butter pepperoni slices (great snack!) salad cucumbers/peppers shredded cheese apples/oranges/banana's frozen raspberries popcorn vector cereal

lol! yes!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

So glad you posted pics..I love to see my friends progress! :bigsmile: I think you look amazing right now..and so sporty!!! You are gonna rock that marathon!!

I am looking for a delicious chocolate protein powder..if you have one you LOVE please tell me! I take Calcium + Vitamin D Probiotic Vitamin B complex and I use Kaizen protein powder in the vanilla ice cream flavor

looking good!! what does your weight lifting routine look like?

I just use a tape measure from the fabric store to do my measurements.

I noticed this the past few days as well. I usually never wake up to a rumbling tummy..but I am sure am now..and during the day I am feeling my stomach growling..came as a surprise as I am eating alot!

thanks! I like simplicity too..so I think I will just stick with the same numbers :bigsmile:

Good for you!! Your success story is motivating to me! I can't live on 1200 cals either..well I can do it for short teeny periods of time..but I discovered it won't be sustainable for me long term so I am eating more too, I hope I have your success!!! Can't wait to see those success photo's!

Haha!! My son is a tkd instructor..going to send this to him!!

I say you need to go back to tkd. I am just like you, I love it and I unless something is broken I don't miss a class. Regardless of your weight you need to exercise right, so why not do it at something you love??? As for the people in your class, just remember that everyone has limitations, no one has that perfect body…

super!

yeah! so many friends! thanks guys :smile:

:flowerforyou:

thanks guys!

that is great! will send you a mssg :smile:

I have calculated my bmr and tdee (thank goodness for this forum or I would have had no clue what a problem my lower calories are) and I am wanting to keep increasing. I think maybe I will do another jump in the next week then (yeah!).

Thank you for the information! I am really excited about doing this change and seeing what it does for me.

great job you guys..i like seeing theses b & a's!!

You have had success in losing that weight...why does it have to be over? You can still continue towards your goal.

@coolmomvee I am looking for more fitness motivated people over there..follow & i'll follow back!

You look totally different!! So what kind of workout routine do you have?

You look fantastic!! What kind of workouts are you doing?

Can you give us an idea as to what one of your typcial classes would include and how long it runs? Thanks!

I can't wear a hrm at taekwondo, this site always gives me around 700 cals for an hour..but each class is different-sometimes we work harder than others, so I never consider them all calories that I can eat back. Instead of logging my whole class I have started deducting 15 mins to account for the time listening to the…

Learning to count calories..I honestly had no idea before what amount I was consuming.
