My point is though that in that pic I'm 5'7 and about 160-165 lbs puting me in the "overweight" category of BMI. Does that look overweight to you? At that time you could also see 4-pack definition. So when I personally say I want to get down to 160 because I don't want too look too skinny, sure it sounds odd when for my…

Sorry forgot to say I'm 5'7, my bad.

Ok here is a personal example with photo because I understand the whole "too skinny" thing in my own way. Can anyone guess what I weigh in this picture? *Note: The front of that dress flows away from my body as well.

Hmmmm I've never really thought of a reward beyond the success of hitting my goal. I mean, to me shopping isn't a reward it's a necessity as I'll have a completely different body and will need to clothes it. And being over weight never put a stop to my shopping for hot clothes lol. Though... I have been tossing around the…

Home! I looooooove working out at home and hate going to the gym I always have. But now that im so committed to weight lifting I will have to start going to the gym in the new year as I will soon outgrow my at home workouts. Yaaaaaaay! But, awwwwwww, at the same time.

I don't plan to gain a thing. I LOST weight over Thanksgiving and I had 2 different family dinners. I plan on simply shuffling calories around like the ultimate game of Tetris when December gets here. Gonna lose lose weight like a Boss.

But log it under the "Cardiovascular" option. I know it's kind of weird but that's how it gives you the calorie burn amount. Log under "cardio" search for "weight training" and THEN when you put in the amount of time you worked out it will give you calories burned. That threw me off at first too.

Helloooooo

Who was in Lethal Weapon with Mel Gibson.

I noticed today on my reverse flys and kneeling rows that my right arm is slightly weaker. Not by much but enough for me to notice that the lift isn't as smooth on flys and burns more on rows. But it's not so surprising since I'm left handed. I carry things in my left hand. Giant purse, heavy groceries, heavy piles at…

I can honestly say that at my lightest, heaviest (now) and every weight in between I have never been treated any differently by friends or strangers. But also no matter my weight I'm super friendly, flirt like a fiend, and carry myself like a powerful sexy b*tch goddess. I also don't know the meaning of the word shy. So…

I tried these once back in my bulimia easily triggered days and THIS was basically my exact patern too. COMPLETELY suppressed my appetite and then MASSIVE headaches, then nausea. It was no bueno. I quit them so fast.

I've never really drank milk. I don't eat cereal, never really have unless it was those times I would have some harvest crunch in yogurt (got turned onto harvest crunch in yogurt at military camp). the only milk I have these days is post workout chocolate milk.

1) steak 2) spinach 3) mushrooms 4) egg whites 5) peppers

Pfffffft too much protein? NEVER! It's great when you're in a deficit and don't work out because it will help slow muscle loss. It's great when you're in a decicit and DO lift weights because it helps REALLY slow down muscle loss. It helps when you're at maintenance or a clean bulk because it helps you GROW new muscle.…

I watch sodium very carefully for my blood pressure first and foremost and then for water retention second.

You missed that that was actually a joke he threw in there. Subtle but he did mention that he was kidding.

I'm really torn on the whole PF thing, but I've never been to one. I hate their commercials. I hate the lunk alarm thing. But $10 is awesome. I hear that they don't like people to lift heavy but what's considered heavy to everyone? When my dad is in the States (we live in Canada) he goes to the gym down the way from my…

I LOVE MY SCALE!!!! It's the Eat Smart Precision Digital Scale. It has a giant LED screen so that I can weight myself in the dark when I'm still half asleep. It goes up in .2 increments and it's insanely accurate. I just love it so much. It has tons of great reviews everywhere. And it's only $30!

I work completely by myself in the middle of the night and we've just hit slow season. I've just started doing stomach vacuums at work. And last shift I did a bunch of squats. I might add in a plank or two tonight. Nothing that makes me sweat, just a few really effective calisthenics moves that get me up and out of my…

Killer Queen and Fat Bottom Girls. Like the soundtrack to my life.

I had a friend in the 8th grade. She was the "skinny" friend in the group. I would say she was slim. Average slim girl. She ate TONS of calorie dense food all the time and never gained a pound for years. We told her that her metabolism may slow down one day but she said it never would. She turned 19 and BAM!!! She flipping…

It depends on the shake. Sometimes I do a half scoop of protein with water before workouts or if I just want to take the edge off of a "snack" sized hunger. You know, 3am, feeling kinda food cravy but not wanting a meal. On the other hand I use Pure Protein premade shakes sometimes as a convenient preworkout. Great, nicely…

Chocolate milk. If you've just worked out a higher ratio of carbs to protein is your friend.

My friends birthday last night, good times!

Hmmmm I am so not a sports person so I have no idea what's going on, lol. I'm just going to sit here and keep knocking back water to get rid of the linger tendrils of this slight hangover. Thank god it's dead here. Bring on slow season!

Just eat Chinese! It's easier if you think of this as a lifestyle change instead of some punishing diet. Like, I just had steak quesadillas for lunch. I eat pizza and hot wings and burgers. And I don't even have to go over my calories to do it. The foods aren't "bad" or a "cheat" or "unhealthy". Just figure out what you…

Oh my god I'm an egg white fiend too! Yes yes yes alriiiiight whole eggs are amazing. But 2 whole eggs NEVER make me feel full. I'll cook up a CUP of egg whites (that's like 8 eggs!) 1 cup spinach 1 cup mushrooms 30g cheese 2tbs salsa For like, the same calories in 3 whole eggs. But I'll actually be full for about 4 or 5…

I think you missed where I put 2 slices of smoked breakfast ham in my wrap. They are delicious, cut like wide bacon strips and are 30 cals each. The whole point was to show that when you don't go directly to the "conventional" options you don't have to give up a thing. It just takes a little thought and looking. Eg. Take…

BRILLIANT!! Congrats that's so amazing!
