  • yeah, as other posters have stated strength training will make a huge difference for you. solely dieting, or solely dieting and cardio works wonders for the morbidly obese because the straight up loss of extra mass makes for a huge transformation in the mirror. once you start getting healthy though, lifting weights…
  • love your protein goals of between 70-100. too many women neglect that. makes me embarrassed to check my logs totals lately... also ditto on the protein powder and salads with lean meats on it to get the most protein-wise out of your cals. if you're not worried about being on a calorie deficit everything else like dairy,…

  • i'm not eating fast food now for various reasons, but there was a time when i ate double chee's from mcd's pretty much every day. They're so great, $1, 330ish calories and a decent breakdown of carbs/fat/protein. Obviously, it's not the ideal breakdown, but losing weight is not the same as getting overall fit/healthy and…
