I just experienced the same thing! And I even know what I did to get there... worked my tail feather off! I would love some support during my journey

Welcome! MFP is a good resource... for me the trick is planning ahead. I find comfort in knowing what I am eating for my next meal...and then i am less likely to eat junk. feel free to add me.

I find I am energized for the day after my work outs. I have to eat before and after my work out tho, or else I feel drained. Protein and carbs before and after works the best for me

so can most people squat their body weight, or 1.5x body weight? etc?

haven't talked to him yet about it, i see him on thursday ... If he says what do you want to be able to lift... i would have no idea how to answer that question. I can do everything in my daily life just fine.. but i want to be more 'sculpted' (if that makes sense)

well done! incredible!! small daily changes all add up... that is what i am learning!

well done!!!

i just bought mine off the shopping channel, they had it on as a showstopper!!! so awesome, and i am looking forward to it arriving next week.

thank you

i am in... need to do back as well to balance myself out tho! lol

vic, bc

may i suggest getting a trainer for a few sessions (perhaps you can both be there at the same time) he could go over basics and help with good form, which is SOOOO important! good form= less chance of injury!!! (in my opinion)

i am in... i am 2 lbs away from my goal weight... so that better happen this month! then what? that is what i really need to figure out!

deep tissue massage to work out the kinks in my muscles. helps with recovery too.

I am a massage therapist... cant have the rough stuff! lol... thanks for the topic, i need to pick up some too since i started lifting weights a month ago

all the eskeevas (i have no idea how to spell that) in 55 is going rip my legs!!!!

i am 22lbs lighter after 4 months of diet and exercise, 154 to 132ish now i dont count calories as much as 'portions'. my daily portions are 2.5 protein, 3 fruits, 4 veggies, 2 starches, 2 health fats, 2 dairy and a whatever (around 100cal ish...) 3 litres of water I exercise 6 days a week. monday - off tues- cardio class…

Yesterday was the the first day that I truely recognized that I am an emotional eater and did not give into my emotional hunger. Eating will not make my problems go away, or relieve my stress in the long term. When i was in a good frame of mind, I set out my action plan for what i was going to do when I would have an…

I will try and do this next time. Sometimes emotions come on at odd times (like just before going to work)... and having a range of ideas i think will be useful! Thanks for our input =) gum= no time to talk or exercise (like if i am on my way out the door to work) the website= if i am in my car and find myself driving to a…

I have just started to do this to. but like any new habit... i have to remember that it is an option... and to have some readily available (work, car, home)...

wow, this is cool! I think this can definitely help me with the "in the moment" scenarios and help me make better decisions

.

right now I am in the phase of saying to myself "food will not make this better or go away...." sometimes it works... but the suggestions about exercising is a good one... just even a change of environment probably would do wonders

*bump... surely I can not be alone in this....

That is me to a tee... if i start feeling overwhelmed because I am running a bit late, and have nothing 'planned' it usually ends up in some sort of unhealthy choice. I am glad to see that a lot of people eat roughly the same thing. I am going to stop trying to be overly 'inventive' with my meal planning do a plan, grocery…

I was 154 and an down to 146.2 and still am wearing the same size. They are definitely more comfortable, but am looking forward to going down a full size! I am interested to hear other peoples responses

here is a link to my pintrest board of 'work out ideas when i do not want to go to the gym' pick one and do it! I love pintrest http://pinterest.com/tocara/workout-ideas-when-you-don-t-want-to-go-to-the-gym/

I didnt read all of the posts... however... if you can wait until november.. you could alway grow it for "mo-vember" in support of prostate health for men. You get to trial it for a month, and can decide what to do on Dec 1st with it. I generally dont like moustaches, but will 100% put up with it for a set period of time…
