Not a vegetarian but.... Quinoa Beans Soy Meat Substitutes

You don't have to start out with a barbell. You can start with just body weight until you feel comfortable with a barbell.

Congrats on the job, but I will never, ever shop in a VS ever again. Mostly because I found they don't measure for bras correctly. They shoved me into a 38DD. I have recently found out that I'm actually a 36I. And no, VS doesn't even make them that big, but they'll happily shove you into an ill-fitting bra because the…

It's a load of a waste of money. All it is doing is what you should be doing anyway: eating right, drinking water and exercising. Except they add in very expensive supplements that aren't necessary. And detoxing is BS. Not to mention they'll try to rope you into selling the crap, and you're likely to lose money doing it.

That's an old-wives' tale. Your metabolism never shuts down. If it did, you'd be dead. Your body is always going, always digesting. Just making your brain function takes a large amount of your daily calories, and you're brain is ALWAYS working. Frankly, I seriously doubt you're eating as well as you say. I peeked at your…

If you like pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain!

Hey, good to see you here! Feel free to add me. :) This is a great tool if you stick with it and eat right! There is some hit and miss with it in the beginning, so don't get discouraged.

I'm add-able. :)

Pesto and alfredos are a good standby. One of my favorites is a white wine based linguini and seafood. Simmer a bottle of white wine (the cheapest you can find is perfect), a can of clams, some shrimp and some crab until the alcohol is boiled off. Add some parsley and toss with cooked linguini.

I'm 5'5" and about 189. Feel free to add me.

If you get 'em before they start rolling over, it'd be like veal.

I would definitely say it's not usual, but don't get stuck on "weird". If you build up and gain that weight, you'll probably see a big difference- so long as you're doing the weight gain correctly! I've been on both sides of the weight scales- 95 lbs as an adult and trying to gain without any luck, and now trying to lose…

Try to use a natural repellant on your face. Fresh catnip works if you can get it. Garlic also helps keep bugs away. Or just spray the rest of your body and a hat and then try not to worry about your face since the cloud of chemicals should help keep them away.

Very adorable!

I started at 204. Add me if you'd like!

Yup, folic acid, charting basal temps so you can figure out when you're ovulating. Also, the more often you do it, the lower the sperm count (like if you did it twice in a day, the second time would be lower than if you waited for a day).

Oh, and now I have to change more because my son just ate my last apple (part of my normal bed time snack).

Some days (like today) I like to log ahead because I already know what's on the menu! And even then, I give myself flexibility. I'm about to go change up what's going on because I didn't eat all that I logged for lunch, meaning more calories left over for this evening.

Thanks to all who responded. I'm a rather irrational person when I get angry, so it's good to know that this is a time to stop my fingers. You're right, it probably would get dismissed, or made fun of.

You're not weird! Some people just don't want kids, some don't ever want to get married even if they get into a long term relationship. It's all good. To each their own!

An apple and a 2 oz wedge of brie. That's my favorite snack of all times, and I eat it pretty much every night.

Your body needs to rest in order to repair. You have a fever to kill off the baddies in your system. Don't feel guilty about missing a day or two when you're truly ill. Your body needs sleep more than it needs a workout!

You'd need to eat a net negative 3500 calories a day to lose a pound a day. Not smart. Not healthy. Go eat.

Lift heavy. You won't bulk. Just search out the threads for heavy lifting women. They look AMAZING- tight and feminine. High weight, lower reps.

Dude, I'm HOPING to lose boobage with weight loss! Boobs get in the way. I was so much happier when I was smaller chested.

Can't. The nearest Nordstroms is over 600 miles away. :( Biggest city in Montana, but still very much country.

Fantastic, ladies! Thank you so much!

Thanks, Amy. I'm going to check those ones out too.

Well crap. I don't have a Nordstroms within 600 miles of me! I'll have to look into their return policies for online purchases, I guess.

Do you have a specific brand you use? I'm so totally out of the loop on this since I've never been fitted by anyone BUT VS, and they're obviously WRONG. I tried on my regular 38DD bra that VS suggested to me, and I'm totally seeing the issues... The band feels exceedingly tight, but I now look at it and realize that it's…
