I'm not sure how much fat I lost. I only weigh in after I finish each block so my next weigh in will be this Friday after I finish victory week. I think my total weight loss will come to around 5 lbs. I was eating 1800 calories a day for the first two months and then upped it to 1900 calories because I didn't want to lose…

I was in bad shape when I was in grad school. The long hours, stress, and late nights disrupting my sleeping weren't conducive to being fit. You can do it, but it is definitely harder. Several grad students I knew went mountain biking together and did other athletic activities like lunchtime basketball, just not at the…

If you are a fast runner get close to the front of the pack before you start. If you are a slow runner you should start near the back. If there are lots of people running it usually takes about the first 1/2 mile until people are spread far enough apart that you can get into your pace and really run. A 5K isn't that far so…

Sure.

If I were you I would stick with the classics schedule. I don't know if people can gain mass easily on P90X3 (compared to a real weight lifting program), since there really isn't much heavy lifting involved other than pushups and pullups. I'm almost finished with the classics schedule and haven't gained much size but have…

It was pretty good. I was happy to see her fail, given her poor attitude. But realistically, I think she was just dealing with PMS and grief from the loss of her dad, and took her frustrations out on her partner.

Nice! Just over 3 weeks left to do on the program for my wife and me.

1 cup milk, 1 cup tea, 1/2 cup OJ Homemade egg mcmuffin (1 scrambled egg +1 egg white, 1 chicken sausage patty, 1 cheese slice, 1 whole wheat English muffin) and 1/2 grapefruit. Works great until about 11 AM, then I start getting hungry and look forward to lunch time.

Hands down for me it is a field bred golden retriever.

It depends on what the job is your are interviewing for. In general that question is answered by picking something that is relatively neutral that you have dealt with and then explaining what you did to overcome it so that it is now a positive. I proof read an application from a student applying for a professional program…

My wife and I get up 30 minutes early in the morning to exercise at home and then go to bed 30 minutes early at night so we still get the same amount of sleep. The last 30 minutes before bed is not a productive time and most people just spend it just watching TV. There are tons of good 30 minute workout routines including…

I have a small hobby farm setup with chickens, goats, dogs and cats so I understand what you are talking about. It's really not that much work if you enjoy being outside with them. I take care of the animals and garden at my place and my wife does everything else. After sitting around all day at work I sure enjoy being…

The recipe for zucchini fries that Junepal listed is awesome. My wife made them two weeks ago and I'm still thinking about them.

P90X with their eating recommendations, if you have the time to commit to it. Everyone I know that has tried it has had good results, although most seem to quit between 30-60 days in so they don't see the full benefits.

I like the premier protein, strawberries and cream flavor. It comes as a liquid instead of a powder, so no nasty protein clumps.

Yes

I met my wife at a friend's engagement party. I was single and she was dating the groom's best friend. I asked her out in front of her date, she said yes, and we've been together ever since.

My wife and I did that video two years ago and then followed it with ripped in 30. I thought the changes were small in me, but a little better for her. I know she lost inches, but don't remember how many. I did notice a big increase in my endurance after those videos. I don't personally like JM's workout style. If you are…

I'm not bringing my kids there until they are old enough to drink and gamble with me. It's not that you can't have a fun family vacation there, but why would someone chose to when there are much better family friendly places to go. Drinking, gambling, and debauchery are best kept at a good distance from impressionable…

Yup.

Looks beautiful. I love the Rockies. I'll be working out and if it doesn't rain taking my dog to do some dock jumping.

I turn most of my ground venison into sausage so it keeps for a long time. If you make it yourself you can control the amount of fat in it so it is a lot healthier than store bought sausage. My wife doesn't like venison very much but she'll eat it that way. I like the high mountain brand polish sausage kit. Other than that…

Strange coincidence. Some crazy lady has been stealing my lunch out of my gym locker anytime I bring pizza, tootsie rolls, or bagels. She keeps muttering how she likes the free food at the gym as she wipes crumbs from her face. Anyway, I'd recommend heading to the Y. People tend to not lock their lockers there so it's a…

My wife and I have done several different DVD's. We did the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred and ripped in 30, each twice. They worked pretty well but it was boring doing the same exact routine for a week at a time. We borrowed power 90 from our neighbor and liked that better. It was better at muscle definition than losing…

She is, but she can't type to send a FR. Yes to dz.

Sure. I like itchy animal butts as long as they aren't rubbing them on my carpet or furniture.

That's the problem for me too. It's not the couple of beers or whiskey/diet cokes, it is the frozen pizza I eat at midnight because I got the munchies. I now plan what days I'm going to drink and make sure to put it in my daily calories ahead of time so I don't overdo it. I also started limiting my drinking to just…

The easiest way to meet him is ask your mutual friend to host a relaxed group activity like a BBQ, watching a sporting event, etc. that you both go to. Put on some cute clothes, have a couple cocktails, and just talk with him. If you like him and there is chemistry you can ask him out at the end of the night if he doesn't…

It could be worse. I once got hit on by a dude while I was out with my fiancé (now wife) and a bunch of friends and never knew what was happening. I thought the guy was just being nice until one of my female friends pointed out what was going on. I got crap about that for a long time. Now that you know his intentions the…
