Disagree. If you're short on time, up your intensity whether it's weights or cardio.

Soooo.....that means you're eating just meat?

I plan a week in advance. Every sunday, I prep my snacks, lunches and dinners for the day. The only thing that changes is breakfast because that depends on whether I'm doing fasted cardio or not. Usually I make a few different things, so I have variety, but I find it so much easier and less frantic when planning ahead.

What about cooking turkey or chicken at the beginning of the week, then slicing it up when needed?

^^Huge thanks for the advice! It's always good to have a heads up, especially for things like this. To everyone who's going to do one, good luck! I'm still trying to find some more people to run with, so hopefully I can find a good group. I appreciate everyone's responses!

knitapeace http://thecolorrun.com/events/ I'm trying to find some people that are doing the one in Queens to run with, but so far no luck. Has anyone done one before?

I'll add :happy: I'm always looking for new and encouraging friends. It's quite discouraging when you get allllll these people that say they're there to help and motivate and then you never hear from them. Where's all the motivation at?! :huh:

Always up for new and motivating friends! Feel free to add :happy:

Feel free to add :smile: The small amount of people I'm currently friends with aren't on often and it's a slight disappointment, so I need some more people to be motivating :tongue:

hardworker.

I dig your glasses in your 3rd pic :-)

I've found the Health-O-Meter scales right in Walmart in the home improvement section for "bathroom". They have their own little section for scales and measuring tools :)

Aw this seems fun, I'll play! :) Age: 23 Height: 5'2" SW: 192 (recorded)-210 (unrecorded) CW: 151 GW: 125-130

I highly recommend the Health-O-Meter body fat scale. It reads your weight, BMI, body fat percent, and also the percentage of your weight that's water. I, too, got frustrated constantly when seeing the number on the scale never changing, or just going up and up. It got to the point where I became obsessed and was weighing…

I actually just had a conversation yesterday, with a customer at my job who raises chickens and sells eggs. We started talking about how certain things can be great for you, but then can also be bad for you, and when I mentioned eggs as an example, he explained that eggs aren't actually laid with cholesterol, but develop…

I don't see mine disappearing either! One day you'll wake up and realize it's no longer there, but keep up the good work and you'll be pleasantly surprised :wink:

Finally more New Yorkers! I was starting to feel like this state was a big ball of slack! Lol

New York, NY all the way ;-)

I noticed about 2 months ago with my Polar FT4, that during a regular hip hop dance class, I was burning a little over 400 cals and had only lost (on the scale) about 3 lbs. One day I realized my HRM said I only burned about 325 cals. I figured it had mis-read and watched it for a week. I noticed all the other classes I…

I'm 5'3" and aiming for 130. My legs have always been my thickest part (I was a dancer for 9 years so it's where all my muscle is), however I'm lookig to be a toned and solid 130.

Gotta find ways to make fun! I usually find myself dancing around on the treadmill on my cardio days haha. Just remember, with every lb lost, and every muscle gained, you're inspiring someone else to be better! ;-)

Definitely recommend the flavored seltzer waters. Once I stopped drinking soda, I realized it wasn't the flavors that I was missing necessarily, but more so the carbonation. Water is great, but sometimes your body just wants a different texture.

My go-to recipe is Mozzarella and Spinach stuffed chicken! And the recipe can be adjusted to however many people you're looking to feed Preheat oven to 425 degrees 4 chicken breasts Spinach Fat free Mozzarella shredded cheese Whichever seasonings you like most (I usually use garlic powder, onion powder, italian seasoning,…
