You aren't tracking regularly, but on the days you are tracking, it seems as though you are eating very little food for your size and activity level, which absolutely brings on cravings that are nigh impossible to deny. More than likely, you need to eat more food. Food to fuel you day and your workouts. Eating less isn't…

It is! I just wouldn't buy tickets JUST to go there, lol. Suessland is magical :3 [/quote] Not only did I buy tickets to go just to WWoHP, I did it twice and I'll do it again after the expansion. I also have an HP tattoo and I'm planning a second, so that's just kind of how I am :)

That's a bummer that you had a bad experience. I loved every single second of the time I was there. Both times. The only part that sucks for me is that they had to go and change the house crest for Ravenclaw from an eagle to a raven and of course, they changed the colors from the book for the movies as well. This means…

We aren't going back to Orlando until the expansion is open. I can't even begin to tell you the amount of excitement that trip will cause!

I'M GOING AND I COULDN'T BE MORE EXCITED! It's real for us..... Okay, I was more excited when I went to WWoHP the first time, and probably more excited when we went on the studio tour in London, but LeakyCon is the next thing coming up, SO I'M EXCITED! Right and there was the time when I was chosen for the wand experience…

I wrote a short angry post about Bob Harper's totally unnecessary new book and now when you search "bob harper 800 calorie diet" on Google I'm on the bottom of the first page. Sweet!

One of the biggest mistakes humans make when thinking about exercise is that is that all good cardiovascular exercise has to be done with the legs. Not true! I've had clients in wheelchairs and those who couldn't walk due to diabetic neuropathies. You know what they could do, though? Pull. Get yourself a set of resistance…

That last ten pounds can be hard! You might want to look into Taking Up Space. When you get to the end, humans often need to increase their calories to continue seeing changes in body composition.

And it's fecking brilliant. :)

Taking Up Space http://gokaleo.com/taking-up-space/

My answer is to always eat food. First breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, supper, late night snack. Some food even comes in pints. The gods craeted boiling water so that there will always be hard boiled eggs available at any time. No need to wake up at 4AM to make breakfast when you…

Sweet! Go you!

This. Just pushing the knees out instead of starting the spread at the feet can be the problem. It engages the entire hip complex, including glutes that might not otherwise fire. Spreading the floor, you'll be more stable and probably lift more, too.

Check my supper from this evening. Apparently, everything.

Biomolecular Archaeology? That sounds BRILLIANT! I have a BS in Microbilogy and Genetic Engineering from UCSB and a MS in Biotechnology with an emphasis on Cancer Biology from Johns Hopkins. My parents are confused as to how I ended up a personal trainer :) Really, I just needed a window.

Women's muscles are exactly the same as men's It is the level of testosterone in our systems that is different. If you expose a female's muscles to the same level of testosterone found in a male body, her muscles will grow just the same as a male's.

What a great resource!

OR, you have an underlying medical condition that needs to be treated by a doctor. If it has been a while, get a physical. There is always a reason why a human has trouble losing weight.

Use the number from your monitor. http://nbsfit.com/uncategorized/equipment-estimated-calories-versus-actual-calories-burned-how-to-calculate-calories-burned-during-exercise/

There have been a lot of studies on this topic and the answer seems to be whenever works best for you. Some humans are great at working out in the mornings because they enjoy getting up early and they feel energized from exercise, There are those, like me, who prefer to workout in the evenings because exercise actually…

You know what's awesome? Having an expert in the field comment on your post.

That is how MFP is designed to work :)

Every single one of your cells is essentially a fat-bag. Cell membranes, also called the plasma membrane, are made primarily of fats, followed by cholesterol, proteins and glycoproteins. OOOOOO || || || || || || <Phospholipid bilayer || || || || || || OOOOOO

At the IDEA conference back in June, Dr. Kravitz gave a talk comparing the research on continuous cardio vs HIIT. Though both are good forms of exercise for myriads of reasons, HIIT wins for greater EPOC and therefore, greater fat loss in a shorter time. The real-life example he used was to look at the body comps of…

Best article on shin splints ever. http://www.coreperformance.com/knowledge/injury-pain/shin-splints.html

You are very welcome!

But my point is, if the article sounds like you, you are starving yourself. That was me. I've learned from my mistakes. You are allowed to grow and change and be different than you were yesterday. I'm lucky that I have a psychologist as a husband and he did exactly what I needed to pull me out of my obsession. There is…

I've looked at your diary. Please don't starve yourself. If you have time, read this: nbsfit.com/nutrition/weight-loss-isnt-always-about-eating-less-and-exercising-more/

Well done!
