When you make your cookies and cakes, make them smaller than usual. Like bite size cookies vs full size. That way when you eat 3-5 cookies, it isn't as bad as eating 3-5 full size cookies. Also, When you eat them, put them n a plate and sit down in another room with them. You can then enjoy them and have to make a physcal…

I had my competition today. The other girls that were there were awesome! I didn't do too bad. I weighted in at 199lbs and was able to deadlift 195lbs successfully. My grip failed me on 205lbs but I was able to get that in training. We found out just before the competition that we were not able to use chalk like we had…

We mostly shop at Safeway and have found that they re-stock their clearence sections on Tue afternoons. This includes meat and veggies. We buy the salads at 50% off that we are going to eat that week and they always have chicken and pork. We will buy that at 50% off as well. We also noticed that a lot of the boxed things…

Here is a quick update for those that are interested. In 4 weeks I haven't lost any weight so I'm still at 200lbs. I went from 80lb bench press to 100lb bench press and am hoping to get between 105-120 for my 1 rep max. I went from 135lb dead lifts to 185lb dead lifts and am hoping to get between 200-210 for my 1 rep max.…

With my son: Hot wings and anything vinegary like salt and vinegar chips. With my daughter: veggies, fruit, and chocolate. The funny thing is now my son loves veggies and fruit and my daughter loves hot and vinegary foods.

Thank you all for the advice and support! I currently workout 5 days a week with one day being heavy weights and the other four days being light weights and aerobics. I have two little kids so we have been doing fitness video games for the aerobics portion. I work at a military base as an engineer so mostly desk job but…

They take your weight as a base. Then how ever much you lift is a percentage of your weight. So I weight 200lbs. If I can lift 100lbs then that is 50% of my weight. 200lbs is 100%, 300lbs is 150%. Hope that clears that up.

My husband and I will be completing our first one this June in Colorado. Any advice would be great!

This is what my husband and I did while dating and we have been married for almost 11 years now. It makes us more equal in the relationship.

I was on it for about a year. It was great the first 6 months I was on it. Then I started getting massive stomach cramps from it to the point that the doctors were testing me to see if I had a tubal pregnancy. After about 10 months I gained 30 lbs in one month and continued to have other massive problems. I was advised by…

Posts like this are what cause a lot of seperation between plant eaters and meat eaters. Veganism isn't a cult and most people don't think of it as a cult. On that same note, just because you eat meat DOES NOT mean you are brain washed. I tried to eat Vegitarian and realized that I was missing alot of vitamins and minerals…

I use to eat just the fruit until my husband and I had the same argument. He has always eaten the skin. I did my research and found out that the skin actually has a ton of fiber and antioxidents that your body needs. Now I eat the whole thing and if you scrub it really good with a fruit brush most of the hair comes off. I…

I want to take part in a powerlifting competition. I love to lift weights and I want to be that girl that looks small but can wow everyone with how strong she is. I also want to wear a low back dress somewhere and not have to worry about fat spilling out. Oh and at work there is a sign I see every day that says the floor…

It seems to be working! Hmm maybe I should get some yoga pants.

This is the same for me. I work out just before I go to bed. It helps me sleep better too. I'm one of those people that thinks too much when they are trying to go to sleep so I never go to sleep right away. Now I get to do all my thinking while I'm exercising and then when I get in bed I pass right out. Also, I meet with…

Pixie Pickle I'm guessing about 27.

weigh in on Wed afternoon after work. I see my personal trainer at that time so I consider that my "official" weight in like at a weight watcher's meeting. We also take body measurements though so that I can keep track of those. I also weight in randomly through the week just to see where I am.

Celery always seems to fill me up as well as mushrooms. Also, here is an article with a few others. http://fitbie.msn.com/slideshow/25-shockingly-low-calorie-foods Hope this helps!

I started my weight loss about the same time as you. I am seeing a certified personal trainer to help make good food choices. Looking at your fool log I noticed a few things. You should be eating more frequently about every 3 hours. From my trainer she wanted me to make sure that for each meal I was eating a min of 1 carb…
