WOW, fantastic work! You look great.

In addition to what the other posters have said, check out this little website: http://paindatabase.com/bodyfat/ It shows a few pictures of what body fat % looks like.

Good idea to be wary of them! Not sure where you're from, but here in Canada there was a story out east awhile back where a woman was attacked (and died from the injuries) by coyotes on a hike. Mind you, it is rare for them to attack a human, but if they are desperately hungry or ill, they may. Best be on your guard!

Whoot! Great job, you look fantastic! :smile:

Great job!

Yes, soy lecithin is derived from soy plants, so if you want to stay away from soy products, it is a good one to avoid; although, I've never heard about the link between bloating and soy consumption. The protein powder I use, Leanfit Whey Protein, does not contain soy lecithin. So you could try that one.

I set mine to 40% carbs, 30% protein, and 30% fat, based on information I have gleaned from these boards and other online sources, and a friend who is in the fitness industry. I find I feel better when my carbs are kept to a minimum, but it's also hard. I'm discovering that a lot of my favourite foods are carb-based! I…

That's a good attitude to have - back on track tomorrow. You can't undo the eating today so no use dwelling on it! You've got this :smile:

Amazing work! :smile:

Well done, and good luck with the 60 days!

Congratulations! 58 lbs. is a HUGE accomplishment :flowerforyou:

Looking great! Fantastic job, well done.

Hi Sandra - I could provide you with support if you'd like! Add me to your list.

Great job! You look fantastic! Keep it up :smile:

Wow, great job! Keep it up!

Almost 20 lbs. lost is a huge accomplishment! You should be very proud of yourself and be confident in the knowledge that you worked hard for it. People may or may not come around, but it's all about how YOU feel about yourself! I know it's easier said than done, but your success shouldn't be measured by whether or not…

Good job!! Way to resist :smile:

I can most definitely see a difference! Great job! Keep it up :smile:

Fantastic! You can definitely see a difference, well done. Keep it up :smile:

Wow, beautiful! You certainly do look 10 years younger. Well done!

Oh, I most definitely take a break from logging on holidays, and some weekends too if I'm away from home. That doesn't mean I go for an all-out pig fest, but I try not to stress so much about it. You are on holiday after all! :smile: Have a great time!

Amazing job! You look like a whole new person! :smile:

Way to go! Good luck on your second round!

Hey Cheryl... try out this site: http://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/women.html It has lots of circuits for women that you can follow. Should help you get into strength training!

Yayyyy for a sober September! I haven't drank alcohol for 9 months, so here's to another one! :smile: I'll tell ya, your bodies and minds will thank you!

Yup, I do! Makes me feel bad-*kitten* :smile: Oh, and studies show that strength training makes you look better naked (over just cardio). Just sayin'!

Hmm, sounds like you're having a hard time. I'm sorry that you're struggling! Have you tried taking your measurements or taking before and progress pictures? Sometimes what we see in the mirror/on the scale is not a true representation of the changes taking place. Also, keep it in perspective that you have only been at…

Agreed, planning ahead is your best strategy! Eating a healthy meal beforehand will definitely limit your chances of eating unhealthy choices at the party because you won't be hungry. If it were me, I'd allot some calories for the party itself. I'd probably have a good workout that day and leave some calories to indulge in…

Great job! 125 lbs. lost is an amazing accomplishment.

Wow, congrats! Great job!!
