Portion sizes, if you don't get a food scale - protein should be the size of your palm as thick as your hand. Fat is one thumb (think PB), Extras (like cheese) is 2 fingers, carbs one fist, veggies, two fists.

Overnight oats with egg whites. No matter how you switch up the recipe it tastes so gross!

Keep going! I was really sore in my calves and shins at first, but it got better. If you don't have a foam roller, you should look into getting one. I think it was (IS) my saving grace after workouts. Stretching enough after is also really important. I was never a runner and hated running but I made it through and even…

For how small my office is, there is a surprising amount of weirdos... I have a work mom who insists on buying me clothes for holidays and brings me food that I don't like. She talks a lot about random annoying things for hours. I have heard her stories multiple times (more times then I have heard my bf's stories), but the…

Shakeology tastes great, chocolate is my favorite, with strawberry a close second and even though I don't usually like vanilla, I like the vanilla shakeology. I think everyone is a little different with it. I don't use it as a meal replacement but after I workout. I don't think it keeps me fuller longer or prevent…

I haven't done Insanity but I am a HUGE Zuzka fan. I like how short her workouts are and no matter what your fitness level, you can always modify the moves. I have her Power Yoga and Zcut Cardio and I am torn between getting her kettlebell workout or Zstrength, but I will probably get both. The great thing about Zuzka is…

Congratulations! I am on W7D2 so I know EXACTLY how you feel! I have always HATED running but now I look forward to it. I am taking 3 days before I run again because of how sore my shins were but it's crazy that I can do it without walking. And I was the same way- eating fast food twice a day (literally) for about 2-3…

I started Shakeology about a month ago and I absolutely love it! I did chocolate last month and I was using it in the mornings with banana, chia seeds, ice, water and ground flaxseed, I've made no bake protein cookies with it (SO good!) and I currently started using it as a shake after dinner for dessert. I am not using it…

My mom told me cottage cheese was ice cream. I thought I was the only one that didn't get excited for the ice cream man.

Carbs are not bad, your body actually NEEDS carbs for energy. Just beware, carbs/sugars you find in natural foods, like fruits, are used by your body differently then carbs found in cookies. This link breaks it down pretty simple: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/carbohydrates.html

Thanks! I love BWW!!

I have never had to with my FT4. If it loses your HR you should, but I have never had that problem, unlike some of the other HRMs I have had.

IIFYM.com or scoobyworkshop.com Both have awesome calorie calculators!

Bump I am 5'7" and my weight is fluctuating between 144-147 any given day. My calories are set at 1550 and I changed my macros based on IIFYM.com. I have worn my HRM for 24 hour periods and my basic TDEE is between 21-2400. I work a desk job but workout 5-6 times a week, a variety of HIITS and cardio. I am curious about…

bump...This story sounds so familiar and I so needed to hear this today. =)

DO NOT reward yourself with food, you aren't a dog. I didn't even realize how much I would say, "I can eat this cause I earned it with my workout today."

It is crazy! I'm 5'7" SW - 160 (ish) size 15 CW - 143 - mostly size 6, 9 in juniors GW - 130 ish?? - size 2/4 I don't have a solid goal weight, because I prefer measurements and how I look/feel. 36 hips, 26 waist with 20% body fat. Whether that is at 140 lbs or 130 lbs I don't care. =)

I loved my blender to death. I'm about to pick up my third one. I never had a food scale but I do try to measure things out with measuring cups. Oh and my Kitchen Aid mixer to make PB banana ice cream.

Listen to your body. I just don't feel hungry until about 4 hours after I wake up usually and always work out before breakfast. I don't know how much I buy into the "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" hype. Usually it's people trying to sell a diet or breakfast food that say that.

Definitely Dumb Ways to Die

Bazinga!! Thanks for the laugh!

I think you look great and there is an obvious difference! Some people just don't know how to be happy for others because they can't be happy for themselves!

I am not familiar with the Abs Diet either, but I think your diary looks good. 20 calories is not going to hurt you. If you really want to cut them out though, the only thing I can think of, (just going off today) is maybe switching the milk (and I am not saying there is anything wrong with milk) to Almond milk. Even the…

BUMP I do a different version of angel chicken 6 chicken breasts 1 can 10 3/4 oz cream of mushroom soup 8 ounce of light/fat free cream cheese 1/1 cup dry white wine 1 cup mushrooms (more or less if you want) 1/4 cup red onions 1-2 garlic cloves 1 Garlic and Herb seasoning packet combine and cook on low for 6-7 hours I…

Nike Training Club is awesome. Blogilates has some good videos. I will say her voice kind of annoys me some times, but it's effective.

Lately I have been using a lot of the dry seasoning/dressing packets or even some of the light/fat free dressings. You can find them with the dressings (I love the garlic and herb or italian), or even the ones for Bruschetta chicken. I don't use all of the ingredients or even all of the seasoning. I usually mix it with…

I didn't get to watch much because I am at work, but it's really sad. More people die of cardiovascular disease then all US Wars put together. And it is all preventable.
