I hope you will get lots of responses from people who have lost a lot of weight with no change in their hair! I have experienced a lot of hair thinning beginning the same year that I lost 50 of the 60 pounds I've now lost (2012), but in my case, I think the hair loss is a produce of age (late forties into early fifties)…

1) Learning to look at food in terms of sugar content and nutrition-per-calorie instead of how much I feel like I want it at the moment. 2) Joining a gym, getting a personal trainer, and feeling like there is someone who will be disappointed if I don't exercise today. I'm better at follow through for other people than for…

Yes, when I've been sick. When I had the flu two years ago, it took about five weeks after I was technically no longer sick to get back to my pre-illness duration and intensity. Sorry to disappoint you.

Thanks!

It might be a false dichotomy from a logical perspective, but from the stand-point of physics, it still makes sense. If I want to reduce calories by 500 per day but I can only reduce calorie intake by 150 per day, then I have to increase calorie output by 350 per day. Regardless of whether the increased exercise makes me…

Love them! :-) They are the dark chocolate of green foods.

To be able to wear nicer clothes and look more professional in them. I'm 5'2", and being as wide as I am tall is not a good look for work!

Divorced since June 2013 after 26.5 years of marriage, my decision. I love it! My only regret is that I waited so long.

My ex-husband was like that. I like to work out alone because it's time for me, not time for us. It hurt his feelings when I went to the gym without him because he wanted working out to be something we did together. That's not why I divorced him, but it was one of many ways in which we just weren't on the same page.

Cardio is basically low weight high reps for quads, hamstrings, glutes, and abs. Possibly someone who is already very muscular and not very heavy would gain no additional muscle just doing cardio, but I started out with practically no muscle and gained a lot doing cardio only. I eventually did P90X because I wanted upper…

Yum!

Thanks for sharing!

Rushfit Fight Conditioning Workout + 20 min moderate cardio

Now Foods Whey Protein Isolate is my go-to protein, but also chicken breast, salmon, cod, tuna, and Greek yogurt.

I've maintained the loss shown on my ticker for two years. During that time, I still weighed myself daily, logged food in MFP daily, and walked regularly, but I wasn't super conscientious about meeting my sugar or calorie goal (which means that I mostly didn't). What I learned during that time is that maintaining isn't all…

I keep Hershey nuggets in the house to use in emergencies, and I just don't buy any other sweets. I have no self-control once I get them home, but I'm pretty good about not buying them. Hershey nuggets are boring enough so that I don't usually eat them just for fun, but they are hard-core enough for emergencies. Also--I…

I have a fitbit, and I do think it's estimated calorie burn is pretty accurate for ordinary activities. I use my hrm for cardio calorie burn.

I like Now Foods Whey Protein Isolate. I get it online for $54 for 5lbs. I've tried several, and this is by far my favorite.

Try bicycle shorts (without seat padding) under your workout shorts. Or get swim trunks (the boy-short style for women) to wear under your workout shorts.

I'm stuck in that same place. Fruit juice is delish, but that's not really the point of the juicer!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

I keep mine closed because it's a conversation I'm having with myself.

Thanks!

That was me until our youngest child turned 18. Three weeks later I filed for divorce. Happiest day of my life up to now. We were married 26 1/2 years, and I kind of hate that I waited so long.

Thank you!! These look amazing!
