  • I like my hair loose when I work out. I spent three fricking years in the ARMY with short hair / my hair up. I'm darned if I'm going to put it up now if I don't have to! Besides, having an after workout shower is my reward, so I don't worry about sweaty hair :)
  • Foot (and wrist) size can be misleading, though. For example, every VERY large (i.e. very overweight) female friend that I have takes at least a size 9 shoe, regardless of their height. It's not because they need the length, but because they need the width. Their feet, like every other part of their body, has got obese.…
  • OMG - 1. Paula Begoun's RESIST products. I use her program and the difference it has made in my skin is unbelievable. I'm 41, and seriously, it has made my skin look about a decade younger :) Affordable too - and ships to anywhere (and no, I'm not a sales rep or anything, I just love her stuff). I started on one product,…
  • ON MEN: A *tight* *toned* butt. But biceps beat everything. *sigh*
  • Yes - "Stolen" was quite good. I'd agree on that one. Same thing though on the 50ShadesOfVomit - I just thought it was complete garbage. Sooooo not into the whole childhood regression fantasy thing. Will have to read "Gabriel's Inferno". Thanks for the tip. Couldn't be any worse than the Vomit ;)
  • That is awesome! You seriously deserve to be proud! :)
  • Hi - Welcome to MFP. It's an excellent resource, and I'll friend you :) Cheers, Leanne
  • I don't buy the whole "need heaps of protein" thing. Maybe it's different for women, but I'm building insane amounts of muscle (for a female) and not paying any special attention to protein. I'll be interested to see whether refusing to buy supplements, powders etc. limits me later on. But right now, I'm keep to bodybuild…
  • Hi - New here, and new to bodybuilding (been at it 4 months). Still working towards doing ONE unassisted chin - I'll get there, but in the meanwhile am cursing the way guys have all the built-in muscle. I've got a double whammy to work against - female *and* long-limbed. Will get there though! Leanne in NZ
  • Awesome work! Be proud - you deserve to!
  • Hooo boy! It's a hot topic in some circles. I'm doing bodybuilding, and the common belief there seems to be be, the more you get the better. Peple seem to think that the more you consume, the more muscle you can grow. But I've read that too much can put your kidneys under stress, and leach calcium from your bones. I've…
  • Yep. *waves* After a month of overseas holidaying where my eating was HARD (managing a bodybuilding diet where you're eating out every single meal in foreign countries is IMPOSSIBLE) I'm just getting back on track, and setting MFP up. Should help getting back into the routine I had really well established before I went on…
