It's absolutely a good thing. I know it can be frustrating to slow progress when measured by the scale but it's really a big jump forward. Putting all the metabolism and calorie burn positives aside, think of it as an investment in your future performance. Getting stronger will give you the building blocks to better…

That's hilariously ridiculous.

Love this. Hope you ladies don't mind me jumping in on this.

Similar for me. I ended up a Steelers fan in KS growing up and it's stuck with me all these years.

It's all about activity to me. Positive active people get to stay. Others go. Nothing personal but I'm not here to get 500 friends or to be a Beachbody Coach and 'market' myself but positive people who encourage others and are interesting get my attention.

What I want to know is how you're a Raiders fan in PA? LOL. Great job! Congrats.

I'm buying these for my girlfriend and I. LOL. Of course she has almost no sense of humor so I'm not sure she'll understand these by the title alone.

Wow!

I've had the same type of situation in a marketing environment. Qualified, MBA, director level experience and can't get on the short list for jobs that I'm over qualified for. Have had to take a job far from home and am left to try and connect with my network through LinkedIn. Hopefully we'll both find something. Oh and a…

Yep that's true.

I was having this exact conversation with a colleague yesterday. I tend to like a little coffee or water to wake me up a bit before a morning run. He likes to eat before hand, while I don't. So like everything in exercise and dieting, it's whatever works best for you. Test it out but I would say don't eat much and…

Hilarious! I love it!

It probably won't matter much if he's into the woman (or vise verse). Could be an issue if it matures and that time away from dating makes it so the person is unable to deal with some of the things you need to compromise on when dating someone. Just my two cents.

Wow! Awesome. Great job.

wow. great job.

dochebaggery abounds lol

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon awesome.

I wish I could have a 'like' button. Well put trinityj1.

Saying it's easier is a gross over statement. It's just as difficult for me to do elliptical for 45 minutes, or spin, or P90X or lift weights. The difference is that I'll burn 500 calories quicker because my muscle mass is higher and I weigh more than a woman. Two women would be different too. A woman who weighs 130 would…

I've been curious about this too. What makes shakology different than just having a meal replacement shake with carbs and protein?

Jumping on the bandwagon. I have not lost a pound for the last five weeks or so but I've lost an inch in the middle which is way more important to me. My advice on measuring...don't do it after a big day of cardio or weights. Wait until you've had a day off. My chest and back workouts usually interfere with my measurements.

I was thinking about this yesterday at the gym actually. I'm not delusional that a 'Vin Diesel' body should be my expectation but I was thinking about the normal guys are my gym and picturing myself down another 30 lbs or so. Some of the guys are almost too muscular for me and others have great size and definition without…

So to recap...you've lost 12 pounds in 3 months which sounds about perfect. You're lifting so you've probably put on some muscle too and you're doing cardio like a mad fiend. LOL. So there really are only two explanations...one, you're eating more than 1400/cal. day (which by the sounds of your workouts...is not bad…

Ditto on the HRM. Search MFP for calisthenics or strength training or circuit training. That's how I track the calories.

That's Awesome!

Stevie Wonder makes for a fun spirited workout. Just sayin'.

Love this! Don't forget the people who need to be seen. They walk around making sure everyone checks them out. Yes, you're ripped. I see you. Thanks for showing off the guns and abs. Oh and you, fake boob woman...yes we've all seen you. You're hot. Now can you both just get on with your workout. LOL.
