I went for a run my first morning on vacation in Florida. By the second day of wearing my Fitbit walking around the parks it was the first and only time of hitting the gym, lol. I walked an average of 22, 000 plus steps a day at the parks, ate reasonably (even burgers)without pigging out on all the junk and came back 2.5…

Hi ! I have a Fitbit and if you are doing an exercise that does not register steps (weight lifting as your example), you should record that in your online Fitbit activity tracker. Not sure if you're already doing that but if not, that will increase your TDEE and total number of calories you should be eating per day.

I am not a fan of lunges but I do reverse lunges because you don't have to go very deep and also Bulgarian Splits which I do really like. You can gradually add weights with either.

Bump!

Amazing dedication and progress. You are awesome !!!

Although my husband is supportive of whatever I am trying to accomplish, he doesn't always understand the importance. He for one has never had a weight issue. EVER. So, while he is saying "Great job with heading to the gym today!", he's shoveling in ice cream and asking if I would bake him some cookies, lol. He loves me…

Hi ! I lift twice a week and am hoping to increase soon to 3x with less endurance cardio. I currently eat between 1800-2000 calories a day and discovered my TDEE is higher than previously calculated. I am going to try to increase to at least 2000 and take it from there. Anyone interested can send a friend request ! Also, I…

I love vegetable gardening! Ours is around 25’ square. We grow snap peas, swiss chard, spinach, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, green peppers, banana peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, green beans, yellow beans, garlic, dill, cabbage, broccoli, raspberries and blueberries. Whatever we cannot eat fresh gets canned or frozen. It’s…

When I started squats I hated every second of it. Now after some practice, squats are one of my favorite things to do. They have changed the appearance of my legs\butt considerably and have added so much muscle strength. I am so glad I stayed with them !

Sounds fast and easy, thank you for sharing !

Lifting heavy is how I got my curves. This was achieved with no added bulk, inches lost, and no special interest to be around the guys. They just happen to be there.

I roll my foot on a can of vegetables before bed and in the morning when I get up. I have suffered severe plantar fasciitis in the past and this has worked wonders.

Good Morning ! I would also like to join if you wouldn't mind sending an invite. Thank you !

I would have to agree that you need to be more consistent with your logging and you should be eating more. The less you eat, the more your body will hold onto whatever you want to lose. Very low calories also messes with your hormones. Neither has a positive effect on weight loss.

I would be over the moon at 160 but when I get closer to that number I will be doing calculations based on my lean body mass and BMI. I don't want to start losing muscle mass I have worked so hard to achieve by cutting too much or improperly.

The New Rules of Lifting for Women is a great book. I have used many of these specific lifts or modifications of them. I also generally get in around 6 different strength exercises (weights and body weight) for around 40 minutes. I also try to do compound exercises so that I'm working more than one set of muscles at a time…

I just have to say first that you look amazing and are an inspiration ! I agree with many of the posters, it sounds like a frustrated and jelous comment. Maybe she thought you were being difficult (you weren't !!) because you wouldn't eat with everyone and just said something to hurt your feelings. Unfortunately, she knows…

I try to stay within the 30% macro measurements based on daily calories and take in 150g protein a day. This has been hard for me to meet and am trying to eat more foods that will increase this number. I have recently purchased a protein powder recommended for me by a trainer so that I can a.) consume more protein and b.)…

Hi Richard ! Honestly, I am trying to live my life one day at a time and not think of this as a diet, but a lifestyle. If I am in the mood for chocolate or a donut and nothing is going to satisfy me until I get some, I eat it. I have learned to control myself and stick to a portion of something as long as I have the…
