Thanks guys. I had the same thing happen about 2 years ago on my left arm. I had finally gotten over it all and built up some decent strength and now it happens again :sad: I don't even want to think about what is happening to my body fat. It was low 20s. I've got serious muscle wastage in my shoulder already. I guess I…

I read every single label for ingredients as my family has nut allergies. (My daughter used to be allergic to egg & dairy too, so this was incredibly hard!) I also read them to find out what exactly is in the food I'm eating and feeding my family. My little ones react to certain additives, and I like to know what I am…

One other piece of advice is that you can always say that now is not a convenient time to talk. It gives you time to prepare yourself for the interview and find a suitable time (hopefully when someone can mind your son). Good luck! I'm sure if it was a childcare role they would be sympathetic about having kids in the…

I'm thinking about doing the same. I'm around 7-8 pounds heavier than my "wedding weight" (which has always been my goal), but I fit into all the clothes I wore around my wedding, and some are even a bit loose. I'm thinking of moving to measuring rather than weighing. Let's face it, no one sees what number appears on the…

rmccannell - Do you use quinoa or quinoa flakes for your pudding? Sounds awesome. I've done quite a lot of cold oatmeal things, but never thought to put quinoa in it.

Yes you can!

Great job! I love the look on your face in each photo :)

What a great NSV!

Fantastic! I'm the same height. Another 10 pounds is quite low. Maybe just focus on toning?

Thanks. And apologies for crashing the thread. I've recently upped my calories to losing 0.5 pounds per week. (I'm close to goal and just felt my body needed more food.)

Is it important to eat above BMR or net above it?

Sushi - An 8 piece pack of plain salmon nigiri is anywhere from 400-500+ calories. I always considered it a light/healthy meal or even a snack! On the low side - dehydrated strawberries.

Great idea. Can everyone let us know what you did? My BF was 30% about 6 weeks ago. I want to get to low-mid 20%.

I do some beach running & walking. I actually find I get sore knees after, so might be worthwhile taking it easy your first time. Good luck.
