I don't drink coffee often but when I do I like the frozen flavored coffees. I think they're more like desserts. Yummy. My dad used to (still might) eat peanut butter and mayo sandwiches. He never had to worry about us kids asking him to fix our lunch. That is just disgusting.

My mom used to make the rice with sugar, milk and butter. I haven't had it once since I've been out on my own (a million years now :smile: ) but for some reason it was on my mind the other day. I think it's wrong to use condiments on french fries- ketchup, mustard, mayo, cheese- fries should be naked with the exception of…

Saving for the link. I'm doing NROLFW and was wondering what to do when I finish.

I was thinking the same. After lifting, I can manage about 20 mins of cardio but then I'm ready to fall out. Maybe I'm just more out of shape than I realized. That's a long time at the gym. I'm usually in and out in 45 mins or less. I'd keep the lifting and cut the cardio

I used the military body fat calculator. I have a scale that tells me my BF% and the military calculator is almost the same as the scale BF%. The original one gave a very low BF% and I can look at myself and see I am made up of more fat that what it says.

Did you make sure to change it to female? I'm 5'1" and it gave me a goal weight of anywhere between 105-135 at various BF%

I lift weights and I have a ton of weight to lose! I also do cardio to help with weight loss. I was worried about it stalling my weight loss but I'm still losing inches so I'm ok with it. I have a friend I see about once a month and the last 2 months she's said she can tell a difference even though I've not lost that many…

I eat it like a second thanksgiving dinner and turkey sandwiches. it's probably why I only like turkey on Thanksgiving and right around then. I hardly ever eat any kind of turkey the rest of the year.

My first wedding dress I rented (we were young, dumb, poor, and my ex husband was a jerk about my dream dress- which actually wasn't much more expensive than what renting a dress was) My second wedding my exhusband helped me pick out and I think it's shoved in the garment bag probably in my storage shed. It's a very simple…

We actually have 2 Pizza Inns near where I live. I was shocked because I hadn't seen one in years until I moved up here. And their chocolate chip pizza is amazing. Also their taco pizza! ETA: someone said they had nasty overpriced pizza. I'm glad I've never eaten at that one. Both the ones in this area have always had…

Thank you! I was scrolling through these, not playing just creeping, lol, and I couldn't believe people weren't answering! I :heart: that move

I changed mine to 25% but some days I have a hard time hitting that without protein bars. I noticed when I used to make the protein shakes with the powder, greek yogurt, berries, skim milk it was a big chunk of my calories so I stopped making them. I'm having a hard time finding a happy medium without a ton of calories.…

Lots of protein! thanks for posting. I might have to try this. I love the single serve recipes I find on here. Well, this might be enough for two but if I'm in a chocolate mood it'll only make enough for one :laugh:

Ahh ok. I was really thinking I needed to amp up the weights if you had progressed that much in just 4 weeks. But by the last rep of my last set I'm ready to put the weights down, lol so I'll keep plugging along at my pokey pace. It's so much more than I used to be able to do anyway so I'm happy

Have you only been lifting for 4 weeks? It says you gained 10# in 4 weeks, but you can deadlift 225?! I've been doing weight training for about 6 weeks and thought I was kicking *kitten* doing 105# deadlifts today! I'm such a wuss :laugh:

Thanks

I never, I mean NEVER, bought twinkies for my kids (they're 14 &13 now) and I did today in case they would not get to taste that chemical cake and creamy goodness again for a while :laugh: I used to eat twinkies as a kid but they really tasted better to me back then. Or maybe being a kid all I cared about was getting that…

I :heart: the weight room! The only bulk I have on me is because of my fat. I love that I can feel myself getting stronger and I can feel my muscles under their insulation :laugh: I'd rather be considered "bulky" with muscle than fat any day but the possibility of me bulking up is so slight it never crosses my mind until I…

I'm doing stage 1 of NROLFW and both workouts take me about 30 mins or less. Sometimes a little longer depending on how much talking goes on in the weight room. I can tell a big difference from when I started.

I'm not sure about the dieting part but *I* think that exercising might have something to do with it. It releases all those "feel good" hormones and helps you be able to deal with stress better. I'm not a doctor, I don't even play on on TV. It's just my humble opinion :smile:

I just read it, thanks for posting it. I'm going to look up the eat this not that app. I've seen the book but making it a game sounds more interesting and I can easily take it with me

I went to the gym when I didn't feel like it and while I was there a guy said "Wow! A girl doing deadlifts!" and then he told me I had really good form! Maybe to some it's not the best NSV but it made me feel pretty damn badass :laugh:

I think they're all pretty much the same. I love the key lime Dannon Oikos greek yogurt and they also have a pineapple fat free kind. I prefer the chobani pineapple yogurt though which I believe is amazingly awesome! The oikos pineapple has a chalky taste to it so I'd rather eat the chobani and just accept the fact that it…

I'm not a guy but this I think this thread is amazing awesome! You guys have listed so many great movies! UP gets me too...especially at the end when he does all the dad stuff with the kid. I guess because my kids don't see their dad often and it makes me wonder what they're missing out on.

I don't understand how anyone can say they hate bald guys. Bald guys are hot! Guys with hair are hot but there's something about a bald guy :love: Lord I need a date :laugh:

I don't see why it isn't possible. I'm a single mom to 2 teens I still have to drive around, they're both involved in sports and other activities, I work, and am going to grad school full time with tons of homework. I manage to workout even when that means I have to get up early. Babies are tons of work, but I have to say,…

I'm glad you posted this! I've been thinking of getting gloves but I kind of felt like a sissy for doing it :laugh: I'm glad to see others use them. And like another poster said, I've never seen chalk at my gym either. My hands are on the smaller side so I like the idea of the cyclist gloves too. I might finally break down…

Like someone else said, I log it under strength training because I wear my HRM and logging it on here can be kind of annoying. But I keep paper logs of what I do each time I go to the gym. When I did a video, like JM 30DS, I would log it under circuit training because it was both cardio and strength.

I'm using NROLFW right now and I don't think I'm getting bulky at all. Of course I have plenty of fat covering me so that might be why I look like a linebacker. I haven't grown a penis yet but I'll keep you guys posted :laugh: I also run (ok it's really a jog) and I have a big butt but I notice it's gotten higher and…

Hey I meet those requirements :wink:
