I just finished day 2 of week 3! :)

Unfortunately you cant spot reduce fat. You can do ab work to strengthen the Abdominal muscles, but if there is fat on top it isnt going to show until you lose that. Abdominal fat is usually the last to go. You sound like you've done an amazing job so far, from your measurements and what I see in your pictures. Good for…

Some days you love it during, some days you dont love it til after your done ;p

I lift 3 days a week and add 5-10 lbs depending on the exercise when it starts to get easier to do. Which for me is about once a week as long as I'm consistent.

I agree. A gym that has no barbells? Change gyms!

cute dimples :)

When I eat clean and try to limit my carb intake I too struggle with netting what I'm supposed to. It's almost like I have to eat junk just to get to where I'm supposed to be. And I dont want to do that. But I am not hungry or starving between meals.

Amazing transformation! Congrats to you and great job!

Way to go!! That is really awesome.

Tortilla chips!

Since when did MFP become a dating site? Everyone no matter what they weigh...whether they have weight to lose, or simply need to maintain...EVERYONE needs support and somewhere to track fitness and caloric intake. I myself have lost 43lbs and tracking and support have been essential in my pursuit of the evasive "Toned and…

First of all, You need to strength train then do cardio. Not visa versa. If you do cardio first you dont have enough left in the tank to strength train effectively. Muscle burns more calories and takes up less space than the same amount of fat. Cardio increases your hearts strength and boosts your mood, helps you sleep,…

Reduce your body fat percentage by strength training in addition to cardio if you are not already.

Listen to your body. If it feels sore, take a day off. They say you should rest one day a week. 6 days on, 1 day off. Or at least do something lighter on the 7th day. This is to avoid injury and to not get burnt out.

3x a week: 15-20 reps on each, circuit style-twice, increase weight as it gets easier. Have done 3 sets a few times, but it makes me feel sick. Hoping to work up to three sets consistently. Leg Press reverse pull ups Leg Extension Leg Curls Chest Press Row Biceps and triceps-extensions and dips lat pull downs Chest flys…

I'm not an expert,but I'll give my advice. First, is that net calories? I know your doing the 30DS so your getting cardio and strength training. But its meant to be done every day, so try to up it to every day if you can or work on getting there. As far as your goal, you are not much past normal BMI. So its going to…

Eating clean is more about being healthy on the inside. Better whole healthy foods equals better health overall for the long run.

I eat clean 80/20. Pretty much follow it, but I allow myself 3 tbsp of sugar free creamer in my coffee each morning. It's very healthy, and I still get a cheat meal a week.

the daily allowances on here are screwed up In my opinion. Our bodies need more protein a day than most people get.

I'm 5'6". As long as the guy is not shorter than that I'm good. Just like guys, there's some things some girls are and are not attracted to. But no matter what the height, it doesnt affect a man being good looking or not. It's just awkward to date a guy who's shorter than me. For me anyway.

Sorry. Not sure how to post the images. But thanks for whoever converted it.

Stay on you huh? Be careful what you ask for. hehe Just kidding. THats what we are here for!

Add me! I'll be a friend and motivation. For me, I've been on a rollar coaster of weight loss plans and strategies for years and years! And for all the wrong reasons. I started out doing cardio 3 days a week for 30 min, and eating more protein and less carbs. Now I've settled into eating Clean 80/20 and working out 6 days…

Very inspiring! Great job!!
