I agree with this, just plan for it. Or, you could eat before you go to work, then you'll be less tempted.

Who cares?

Fat doesn't transform into muscle...ever. You need to eat more calories during the day, and start a cardio/strength training regimen if you want to lose belly fat.

This is one of those things people just can't seem to grasp. Good post.

Agreed, this is a great site. Snatch up some 'pals' and stay motivated. You'll be surprised how supportive the folks here can be!

Sensible eating at night is no issue at all. Do it!

Just be smart about it. Have some filling, protein packed food, and you'll be through it before you know it.

I have one (trainers are free at my company gym), and I love having the input, and a soundboard for my concerns and ideas. I am 100% sure I would not be where I am today without him.

Do not rely on the opinions of others for something that is going to be permanently on your body. You really need to figure that out for yourself.

I don't take vitamins of any sort.

Welcome. Sounds like you're already on your way to the new/old you!

You can do it! If the headache gets really bad, take one Excedrin; it has a small dose of caffeine in it, and will help get by. After a week you'll be fine.

I drink at least 4 cups of hot green tea each day (along with 10+ glasses of water). Love it!

What's making you sad?

You can't 'spot' lose or target love handles. Just keep up your cardio and weight training and watch your diet.

How much protein are you trying to ingest?

That guy is an animal!

I am blessed with a free trainer at my company gym (all the trainers are free to everyone, along with the free gym itself). I agree with your points above. I know I wouldn't be anywhere near where I am without a trainer's direction and advice, not to mention support, both figurative and literal. If you can swing having a…

Way to go! I sent you a friend request since I'm an Iowa boy.

You obviously rock!

Gorgeous! Way to go!

The only people I notice at the gym are my friends, and whoever is using the weights/rack I need. Everybody else is invisible. Don't worry about it at all.

Boy, Mondays are the best for me. The day I get back in the gym after 2 days off. I can't wait to hit the weights!! Friday's are the hardest day for me. I generally have to work later on Friday than any other day, so that throws off my gym time. I try to still get there on Fridays, but it is definitely a challenge.

High intensity cardio and lower caloric intake is really what will help.

I'm in also! Everybody can add me if you'd like!

I ride! I have 3 bicycles in my stable right now. I commuted to work (30 miles daily) for about 10 years. Love it!

I stopped drinking soda and coffee 10 years ago. After a while you don't even think about it anymore.

Awesome!

Go for it! Just remember to log it and get back to normal tomorrow!
