Following because I have also been trying to bulk since mid-January. I have been following this plan http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/jake-wilson-project-mass-trainer.html I really like the way it is structured and have enjoyed the workouts, I've made good strength gains. I too am still figuring out the whole eating enough,…

I plan on getting mine augmented in the future. Likely a couple years after we have a 3rd baby, whenever that is. lol. I have always had small breasts, and very little actual breast tissue, so when I gain weight, they'll get a little bigger, but its just fat, and vice versa when I lose.. I get left with deflated bags and…

Engine2 or Oasis. I do not buy the kind with oil in it. I usually get roasted red pepper.

I'm like .5 from goal but sharing what I've done the last 5-6 weeks to lose the last 5lbs. Consistency, 1600 cals a day. I'm 5'6'', was 135.2 at beginning of November, now 130.3 as of last Saturday. :) I workout 1-1.5hrs a day, heavy lifting, and cardio.

Agreed on the consistency, and cut some of the crap out of the diet. I did this myself the past 4 weeks, since I was so tired of staying within the same 3-5lbs. I knew it was because I wasn't being consistent and blowing my weekends. And, Voila, I've lost 4.5lbs. You just have to decide that you want to do it, and make it…

Love this thread! I'm finally starting to accept that some parts of me are just not going to magically shrink. I'm focusing on building the best body for me/what I was given. Try to add pic tomorrow!

Plans changed since I answered on another thread, we are going over to eat with some neighbors/friends. I'm making a couple dishes, but otherwise I'll have no idea what ingredients are in the others. I'll just have one plate, and dessert. I usually have two.. or three plates... and stuff myself silly. Oh and wine. must…

I haven't decided yet. It is just going to be our family of 4, so I don't think I'm going to cook a whole bunch anyway. Probably just turkey, potatoes, a veggie, rolls and dessert. I just don't want to have leftovers besides turkey. I think that is where I go wrong. lol. Just one day and done, I need to keep in mind.

Yes, I think most people find the last 10-20 lbs to come off much slower, which it should, at a rate of .5-1lb a week. That's roughly what I've experienced, my loss is also much less linear now. If you upped the intensity of workouts, but are not eating more to compensate, maybe that is part of it, really there are so many…

I'm 5'6'', 225 pregnant, 195 not pregnant.

I love it, I buy the silk unsweetened vanilla. I mainly use it for protein shakes, and baking, cereal when I eat it.

not vegetarian, but also a young mom. :) I'm almost 26, my boys are 6 and 3.5.

peanut butter natural white cheddar Cheetos (those things are freaking amazing) chocolate covered pretzels or peanuts girl scout cookies.. lol

$84 for the YMCA. Its a huge complex, 2 pools, outdoor pool and splash pad, many free classes (though if you want a smaller yoga class or trx or bootcamp that is extra). Also free childcare for 2 hours a day, which is mainly why we always join a YMCA.

Make an appointment with your GYN. I've been having similar issues, I've only had a few periods this year, and I'm not even underweight. I have an appointment in a few weeks, but yeah, just call and get seen. :)

this video really helped me get proper placement of the bar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtPN-ftmxG8

honey bun sounds delish. i eat chocolate almost daily. i have no shame. restricting doesn't work for me. I have two kiddos as well, boys. :)

I workout after breakfast, so usually egg whites and cereal or Ezekiel toast w/ jam or oatmeal. sometimes also have some strawberries or a banana if I feel low on energy.

Love cookie dough! Cinnamon roll is pretty tasty too. The peanut butter varieties were good as well. vanilla almond crunch was okay. Liked banana nut too. I nuke all mine for 10-15 seconds.

Get a pair of 5lb dumbells and use them during the exercises that hurt your wrists. This works wonders, I didn't believe it until a fitness instructor (who was also a physical therapist) told me to do this during class one day.

I started Live Fit on August 19th! I am liking it so far! I am trying my very best to follow her meal plan, I started off strong the first 2.5 weeks, then fell off the food wagon last week for 4 days or so, eating some things that weren't exactly great. lol. Anyway, I have one last workout for week 4, then I start phase 2…

Love lifting!! I started March-ish earlier this year for a bit, but then took a break (with a few sessions but nothing great, lol), but started up again in July. I just started Jamie Eason's Livefit program, I am on the end of week 3. After that, I think I'm going to try stronglifts. Anyways.. I love lifting and having…

I think you look pretty great right now too! I'd say 10lbs, if you must/want, but otherwise weights will definitely help change and "tone" your shape.

Great story! Big difference in the pics!! Awesome job!! :)

Optimum Nutrition! French vanilla creme and extreme milk chocolate. yum yum.

Wow! That is an amazing weight loss, congrats and well done on that!!! :) I am 5'6'' and my goal is 130. I'm trying to focus more on bf% now though, instead of the scale, but it is hard.

what everyone else said... I rarely eat cereal these days, it just doesn't fill me and isn't worth it... 29-31g of cereal isn't much. lol my go to breakfast is plain greek yogurt (fage usually) and a bit of granola for some crunch, i like natures path vanilla almond flaxseed and Kind granolas are yummy too, or I make my…

I'm going to venture and say.. try and eat more healthful, quality foods... I see a lot of cookies, donuts, etc. Which no doubt, I eat those myself, but try (most of the time) to eat them in small quantities. It could also be that you aren't eating quite enough either.. I saw you had some higher days, but those were filled…

Today during my little group weights class, the trainer complimented the muscle tone in my arms. woot. one of the things i've been working hard towards. :) keep on keepin' on!!!

Awesome job!!!! :) Keep up the good work!!
