Wow, fantastic results! Great job!

All I can say is "WOW"! You look stunning! You are glowing :smile:

Fantastic results! Way to go!

Try not to completely deprive yourself, or as you say, you'll end up over-indulging. Instead, focus on portion control and balancing treats with healthy foods. Have a bowl of ice cream or frozen yogurt, but have a healthy dinner with lean protein, veggies, etc. beforehand. And make sure everything fits within your macro…

Also, Julianne Hough. Strong and fit!

Halle Berry is always who I tell my husband I would die to look like!!! Her body is smokin hot. Especially for her age.
-
You look like a completely different person! Amazing job.

Agreed... not sure what you see wrong with "giving greater strength or firmness to the body" (yes I'm a nerd and I looked it up in the dictionary), because that's what I'm going for!

Hey there... fellow 5'2" Canadian here... welcome! :smile: Feel free to add me, we can motivate one another!

I've heard it's yummy, but does not have much in the way of nutritional value (sadly).
-
Fantastic work! Way to choose to take control of your health, that's very commendable! You look great.

Why do you only eat 800-1000 calories a day? Is that what you net, or is that what you eat overall? Either way, you should aim to net at least 1,200 calories a day. But to your question, there are lots of other exercises you could do: jogging, jump rope, playing sports, workout DVDs (like Jillian Michaels), walking,…

Ahhhh makes so much more sense than 15 grams! Anyway, still 15% is very low if ya ask me, but I'm no expert.
-
Yes, well certainly he should be eating more than he is now (averaging around 15 grams/day)... that was my point!

Welcome to MFP! 4 kiddos... wow, good job! :) Feel free to add me for motivation if you'd like.

^^This for me too^^ I feel much better at 40% carbs... 55% was overkill for me. Your protein numbers seem extremely low... I aim to eat at least 95 grams of protein a day and I'm a 5'2" 110 lbs. female... ? You might want to up that! :)

Nice job! You are looking great!

My workout playlist really doesn't reflect my taste in music in general... I tend to like indie rock and classic rock in "real life" but when it comes to working out, the poppier the better! Some artists that come to mind: Katy Perry, Lady GaGa, LMFAO, Taio Cruz, Black Eyed Peas, Nicki Minaj, Flo Rida, Britney Spears...…

Thanks for that clarification... had never heard of RMR before!

Welcome! I've heard great things about the C25K program, good luck with it! Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like some support :smile:

Remind yourself of your goals! Why did you start changing your lifestyle in the first place? Imagine yourself hitting those goals and enjoying the feeling! Don't fully deprive yourself! If you can't maintain what you are doing now for the long run, you need to change something! Allow yourself a bit more leeway without…

That's great! It's good to know that you are learning from the process and that you wouldn't be "lost" without MFP!
-
Hey there... I would suggest you ask your question in the "Fitness and Exercise" thread, you may get more responses there! Best of luck.

Bumpity bump. These look amazing.

Instead of tortilla chips, cut up a whole wheat tortilla, brush with olive oil and bake at 425 until crispy. Milk, chocolate protein powder, and ice in a blender makes a wonderful alternative to a milkshake. Frozen yogurt in place of ice cream. Carbonated water to replace cravings for fizzy, calorie-laden drinks like…

Great job, you look really and truly fantastic! You should feel very proud! :smile:

Hi Mike: Under cardio exercises, type in "Strength Training (weight lifting, weight training)". That is what I use to estimate what I have burned during a strength training workout. Hope that helps!

Hi Wendy - welcome! Feel free to add me for support, I'm on here often!

Hey there... I am by no means an expert, but just with a quick peek at your diary, the carb-a-licious things that stand out to me are cereal, granola bars, pasta, and desserts. So perhaps to get yourself under your carbs goal every day, you'll have to prioritize your carbs for the day? Try prioritizing your complex carbs,…
