You don't need to exercise to lose fat. Diet is 100% of the equation..... exercise is like icing on the proverbial low calorie, healthy diet cake. If you are not losing as much as you want it is probably because a. you are retaining some water from the workouts or b. you are eating more and therefore are not in a deficit…

I lost about 50 lbs in 6 months. That was in 2005. I have kept if off since then (within about 8 lbs).

I don't think it matters much when you exercise. Whenever you can fit it in works...... Either way you're not sitting on the couch all day and that's what counts!

LOL! Yeah..... I'm sure I will. :tongue: I will let you know how it goes. This is a very cool race...... and it was the first half I ever raced about 6 years ago. :bigsmile:

Time for a new husband!!! I look and feel better now at 42, than I did in my 20s. My 64 year old mother runs a 5k race nearly every weekend. She races more than I do. Age is a number...... and you are only as old as you feel. I plan to be running races into my 70s and 80s if I'm lucky.

I'm 5'9 1/4".... I weigh 138 now. My goal is 132 or 133 ish. That usually feels good for me in terms of body size and increasing my running pace. I have gotten into the 120s. About 5 years ago I hit 128. My mother asked if I was anorexic and I felt like I was angles, not curves. That was the point where it became too much.…

I've been doing leangains type of eating..... 16 hour fast and 8 hour feed. It works great. Read his website. You are NOT going to eff up your metabolism. It can work very well for a lot of people. The idea that you need to eat 5-6 meals a day is just a myth. Give it a try..... that's the name of the game anyway... finding…

I need to resize that!! And half of it is cut off.... ugh. Fail. My age is showing. Hahaha LOL.... but thanks. :)

Who says you can't have a nice belly after kids?? Wooot!!!! Jesus Christ.... how do you post a picture?? I'm trying everything on photobucket.... no…

I plan a week in advance too. We have online grocery shopping with delivery here in my area.... so it's pretty easy to make a plan and shop with that in mind.

I like my shoulders best. I've always like them.... and I think they've gotten better since I started doing pushups. :bigsmile:

I prefer hairy caveman type guys..... hair is sexy. Don't shave your arms. :wink:

I like unsweetened almond milk. I also get a coconut/almond milk combo which is delicious!!! I never drink cows milk anymore.

Are we supposed to post our pics today??

My 5k best is about 26 minutes..... I'd love to beat 25, but that would mean a lot of speedwork... and I hate running fast. I'd rather run long. :)

THIS is exactly why I bought a Fitbit. It gives me a better idea of what I burn on a daily basis.

Yogaglo.com has a wide variety of classes, levels, durations,etc for $18 a month. Better yet, take a class. Nothing beats it!

I'm a 4 now. I've been a 2..... it was during a very painful period of my life (divorce!)..... I felt like I might have been too thin....at 5'9". But, I'm pretty happy when my 4s are a little bit loose.

I have the Forerunner 405cx. It meets all my needs.

Jeffazi makes a good point. ITA.

Word.

:popcorn:

men - forearms and shoulders female - who cares?

Well played. :drinker:

people who think welfare recipients should be drug tested aren't really considering the complexity or cost of initiating such a program and paying for it. To ask the poor to pay for their own drug screens is a slap in the face and frankly impossible for most. I was a midwife in a clinic - took care of people who couldn't…

Thanks, I will keep you in mind. I already have a caveman though. :bigsmile:

You know I'm kidding, right? (except for the redheads have cankles thing....) :smokin:

Jack White :love: ****. how do you put a pic in??

Big, hairy caveman type men are WAY hotter than hairless, groomed metrosexuals. :)
