  • Not to mention longer legs in general. I'm just stuck with an abnormally long torso. :cry:
  • I'm almost 5 feet and weigh 120. I have a small frame. Sizes for me vary a lot, but jean sizes are usually similar. I'm like a size 2 or 4 in jeans, depending on the brand and stretch and cut of jean. However, I probably wear a size 8-10 if you're talking dress size. I've got a big bust yet small hips >_<. I remember when…
  • ' You really want a "horse shoe" look? O.o I don't think it looks sexy at all, it's just a sign of thin and long legs that usually do not have a lot of muscle on them. Legs with defined muscles will not give you an exaggerated horse shoe, it will just look like a gap between the thighs and the gap size will depend on how…
  • You're already burning more than you eat as MFP calculates a deficit for you.
  • Bump! Morning guys! :flowerforyou:
  • I would take the items that you really love and get them tailored so that at least some items of clothing will fit you. :smile: And I think that getting down to a size 7/8 by Christmas is possible if you workout doing your very best doing strength and cardio 5 times a week, but then again it depends on a lot of things esp.…
  • I believe you mean shimmy the belly dancing move? Doing shimmy by itself shouldn't burn very many calories I'm afraid, since a proper shimmy is really more about moving your skeleton (it's basically a very fast slight knee movement that causes the resulting booty shake, but you're not supposed to literally shake your…
  • I'm really hoping that woman disinfected her meat and eggs. @_@!
  • Try to eat them all and wait a month to see if you get results or not (you will see a weight increase, but that's normal, it would go back down again after a week or two). Net calories is just the amount of calories you consume minus the amount of calories you burned from exercise. If you go to the reports tab, click on…
  • I'm shocked and quite disappointed too, especially because this diet pill contains some pretty questionable stuff. :noway: Ugh! I'm glad I never spent any of my money to support her products and dvds now. She seemed nice enough in her dvd workouts though. :frown: Just goes to show...
  • Brussel sprouts are a new vegetable favorite of mine surprisingly. :noway: :tongue:
  • Yes, but when you're weight training, your heart rate will go down significantly even if you're doing squats or something similar along with weights. Well at least that's from my own experience with using my heart rate monitor. The longer you can keep yourself at a high heart rate the better if you're trying to burn…
  • I'm reading my P90x manual. Just got it today sooooooo excited! :bigsmile: Just the thing I needed to get rid of this plateau! >_< Plus people are probably getting ready for the college semester if they aren't already there.
  • Btw if you did some snacking esp. late night snacking (probably the worst time to snack as your body is in rest mode not burn calories mode) you're definitely going to be bloated in the morning. I would definitely try to get in some exercise right about now. Damage control you know? :tongue:
  • I've been taking an exercise break for the past couple of days in preparation for starting P90x. Didn't gain a single pound. o.O I didn't eat so well for two meals for two of those days. Had a burger with fries in one sitting. Not the best idea in the world :tongue:, but I find that I do not bloat or gain much weight if I…
  • I agree with the person that already mentioned this. Cardio for 15 minutes doesn't even count as cardio. You need to do it for at least 30 minutes to get any good burn out of it. That 15 minutes would have just been a warm up. I would definitely look into changing your exercise routine since it obviously isn't working.…
  • And it's a 10000x harder too, especially if it's hot. :cry: I can jog for 10 minutes at a consistent pace on a treadmill no problem. Now outside with slopes is a completely different story.
  • 1) White Rice/White Bread 2) Sweetened Drinks 3) Restaurant Food like from any fast food chains (except the good and expensive stuff every once in a while) Btw brussel sprouts are really good if you don't overcook them.
  • Meat Sushi Bubble Tea/Milk Tea :flowerforyou:
  • And this is why I'm glad that I'm one of the rare few that doesn't drink. I just really do not get it. Tastes nasty. Just remember if you have alcohol in your system, the body will try to rid of the alcohol first as it's a toxin and doesn't even metabolize (so you get absolutely nothing nutrition wise from it) and then the…
  • Totally craving a hamburger and fries today! >_< I've been going from 119 to 120 all month LONG! >_< HOPEFULLY, when I start P90x next week that will start changing. Gotta change my workout routine. That's what got me started on losing weight in the first place. So...-crosses fingers- :wink:
  • Dior Homme?! :love: Good friend indeed. NICE!
  • On the contrary eating too little for long periods of time is the one way to ensure that you will reGAIN weight once you stop "dieting", especially if you're burning even more calories by exercising more than you regularly would do. :wink: Eat breakfast. Eat breakfast. Eat breakfast. A piece of fruit is not a breakfast.…
  • Try eating seeds (flax, sesame, etc) these mostly contain fat and some protein. You'll have to get grounded ones though so you're digest them. However, you can put grounded seeds in anything and they're fiber dense. Just don't over do as they do have a lot of fat in them hence a lot of calories. If you're adventurous with…
  • I like the idea of two weigh ins also. Friday and Monday. It's good to know how the weekend affects weight. :smile:
  • Last Week - 120 lbs This Week - 119 lbs? O.O That's what my scale said after going to the bathroom (I just woke up), but I'm using a different scale today. ohwell When I get on my digital scale at my parent's place, I'll know for real. The digital scale always reads higher. grumble Btw my target is .5 pounds per week. I'm…

  • Yeah, I cannot stomach big breakfasts with a lot of calories either. But I always jump start the day with a good breakfast with carbs, fats, protein, and fiber. I just wouldn't have really small and unbalanced breakfasts like coffee, fruit, or sugary cereal. :noway: Hello, sugar crashhhh. This is especially important for…
  • Eat a big breakfast (400+ calories, well it really depends on your calorie allotment so I'm guessing here :tongue:). Eat every 3 hours (just don't have junk food, that's about 5 times a day I think). Eat less processed food. Eat more real food. Have a lot of fiber (30+ grams per day). Have more balanced meals (meals with…
  • I could eat this everyday... I believe it's a cobb salad. Romaine Lettuce Avocado Grilled Chicken Breast Red Onion Bacon Strips (2) Hard Boiled Egg Balsamic Vinaigrette
