i respectfully disagree. i saw a lot of body changes within 3 months of lifting. higher and tighter butt, perkier boobs, arm definition.

but winchester has...apples? (haha)

^^^ this this this! it took me a solid 3-4 months before i started going back down in weight, and i had gained a solid 7lbs since weight lifting. but within the first month my clothes fit better, i was stronger and loving myself more than i had in a long time.

when i switched to organic dairy i stopped getting the cystic acne, which is what it sounds like you have. the hormones and antibiotics in the dairy made my skin flare up. also make sure to wash your pillow cases frequently, at least once a week.

100%, absolutely!! i am less anxious eating less carbs, and less sugar. i am happier since working out regularly, and happier because i look and feel better. also i'm prone to allergic reactions, and have been getting that less since eating less carbs and less sugar. i can wear earrings now that used to make my ears swell…

since i've started doing cardio after weights, i rarely get DOMS.

http://www.fitnessfrog.com/calculators/tdee-calculator.html It absolutely takes patience. Many times I wanted to give up!! But every time I dug deep, found my motivation, and kept at it. I'm still keeping at it. Thinnest I've been in my adult life. Best I've felt in my WHOLE life :) Feel free to vent to us, to your…

Glancing through your post, you seem to have a lot of "quick, easy fixes" you've gone through in your life. But it seems they didn't work in the long term, correct? I wouldn't go back to methods which didn't work long term, or which allowed you to develop unhealthy attitudes towards food and your health. KISS (keep it…

I love talking about myself! 1. What was your motivation to start losing the weight? I had just turned 22, and felt trapped in my own body. I didn't want to go to celebrate, didn't care. I decided I was too young to feel like that. 2. What was your activity level before? Zilch. Walking. 3. Do you do the gym or DVD’s or…

Yes, it's normal. Your body decides to burn muscle, or fat, depending on the cues you give it. For example if you are lifting weights, your body thinks it needs the muscle for the work you are doing. Pilates is a bodyweight exercise. Further, if you eat enough protein, get your macros in order, your body will want to burn…

I was laughing so hard reading about this.

HAHAH! i love this, so true! i'm thrilled all mounts and pets are accessible by all my characters now. damn, i wish i had the seaturtle! i would be /cheer-ing you right now :)

it's good. think about it, good coffee (to me) has milk in it. milk is a fat. butter is a fat. but you will put less butter in it than you would milk. blend it up, it becomes very frothy and yummy. eating fat doesn't make you fat!

pamela, your story is my story! i went off my meds when i left university, knowing my main anxiety is academics, since i have very high standards and push myself hard. i was still anxious, unhappy, weighing in at 206lbs. i also have hypoglycemia, and the two conditions fed off each other like you don't even know. if i was…
-
i guess i don't really deload? i decided pushing my weight lifting numbers was making me too hungry, and i'm poor and lazy and didn't want to cook up so much food every day (i have hypoglycemia too, so i had to eat straight protein not just veggies/fruits). i am still increasing my squats and deads, but not too concerned…

this was me as well! my bf and i raided hardcore for over a year in wrath/cata days, but i hated being thrown to the bottom of the heap every time new raids/dungeons came out. i got tired of having to put in 15+ hours a week to get geared, deal with bull****, and then have to start all over again. when my bf decided to…

my sister has it. she can't run 5ks either, she does better on treadmills/indoors exercise.

i make fat bombs. one i eat every night is 1/2 cup coconut oil, 1/2 cup local honey, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/2 cup natural peanut butter, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. - 10 servings - (melt it all together on the stove, let it cool for a few minutes then pour into cupcake liners. freeze) then i put more peanut butter…

i bought new bras whenever i would get the bra lining showing through my tops because there was no boob to fill it out (i hope that makes sense). i was a C cup when i started, then i moved from a 36 to a 34, then a B cup at 34, and I'm thinking I may move down to an A cup as my B cup bras are poofing again. UGGGHH.…

before i binge, i remember how i feel when i binge, and i remember the inevitable masochistic behavior, i remember the stomach pain from eating too much. then i don't binge. i've really developed my self-control and guards in such a way i can stop myself before taking that first step. step 1: i don't buy crap food in large…

correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't back injuries typically caused by a lack of engaging the abdominal muscles? a lack of intra-abdominal pressure? i agree with ilovedeadlift though, cut out that stretch!

velveeta mac & cheese. i love the stuff, but i can taste the salt and need to chug a bunch of water afterwards!

don't you dare enlighten us with your knowledge! just talk about how much smarter you are! @@ i want GMOs labeled, period.

when i've tried almond milk with my protein shakes it gives them a weird gelatinous consistency. i like my regular 2% cow's milk.

usually breakfast. i work out in the morning, in a fasted state, and then i'm ravenous when i get home! eggs, bacon, avocado, protein shake, banana :)
