Finally got around to watching that asinine video. I've decided I'm either a unicorn or a dude.

Dude, of course that's not me...I'm darker and hotter.

bump to watch later. Hoping my crazy is high enough.

Check out Fitness Blender on YouTube, they have lots of strength training workouts, there's also the book New Rules for Lifting for Women. BTW feeling sore after a workout is not necessarily a sign of a good workout.

Who could say no to this ↓ face?

Bought a swimsuit for the first time in over 15 years, before I gained all the weight.

You Tube has tons of options. Be Fit and Fitness Blender are good places to start. Do not, I repeat, do not do GymRa. They are awful. the narration is horrible and they are hard to follow. Bob Harper has Yoga Warrior, I've tried it, its pretty good, but my favorite is Bryan Kest's Power Yoga, its about 20 years old, but…

effing hilarious!! As a "thin or average sized woman" I would date an overweight man, but he would have to be on board with my healthy and active lifestyle, but that would be for any man I dated. Also he would have to be hella rich. :wink: Wooo Hooo in AFTER the lock!!

You could rest or do yoga which is what I do on my "rest" day.

In the beginning of the episode they do a 5 minute segment explaining the person will be eating 1,500 calories per day and get a quick cooking lesson from Rocco Dispirito. Yes, I think they should spend more time on nutrition.

Its a chip in the shape of the "pink ribbon" to show where I had a benign cyst removed. I didn't even know it was there until the tech who did my last mammogram showed me.

I have a pink ribbon in my boob, does that count?

For the Planet Fitness fans: Gotta love pizza mondays

I find it hard to take a rest day, so I usually do some yoga, between 30 minutes to an hour. Nothing to strenuous. Though, I am a firm believer of listening to my body, so I will take a rest day if conditions call for it.

Elliot Hulse did a step by step video on You tube on the proper way to do a deadlift

Eat Train Sleep Repeat Strong is the new Sexy

I never went to a gym. I started with a few workout dvds, worked my way up to a few dumbbells, now I have a weight bench and a barbell (thanks to a generous xmas gift card from my bosses) and my dumbbells go up to 40lbs. I'll admit I'm fortunate to have an extra room for all this stuff.

In my office, not only do people cut donuts in half (including me, usually because I'm cutting another donut in half to have a whole donut of 2 different favors, but I digress) I have seen donuts cut in quarters and sometimes eighths. I have yet to hear anyone complain. As long as there's donuts, people are happy. mmmmmm…

So do I, along with sumo and single-legged and in fact not only have I NOT had any back injuries from doing deadlifts, after dealing for years with a herniated disc, my back is stronger and haven't had anymore back problems.

Eggs cause diabetes? Men love small breasts? Damn, the stuff I miss when I'm not on MFP 24/7.

Actually I make my own, better than anything you can get in a bakery.

I'm from STL and I loooooove deadlifts. I workout at home, which is probably why you've never seen me. BTW, hate IMOs and toasted ravioli.

Dude, how do you incorporate the flashlight into your workout?

I lost all my weight never having to go to a gym. I have dumbbells, barbell and a weight bench. Thanks to Beachbody dvds, Jillian Michaels and Youtube, I have a variety of workouts.

This is so my dog when we get ready to go walkies.

The other night went to see a show at an outdoor theater and overheard a woman near me complain about the "snug seats", had to laugh to myself because I kept sliding down in my "snug" seat. I hadn't been to this theater in a few years, so when I got there I was thinking, how I didn't remember the seats being so big. Nice…

Gonna give you some tough love...NO...JUST NO. Don't you think I'd love to have Halle Berry's body (we're the same age), but my goal isn't to get her body, but to build MY best body. Please, build YOUR best body, don't try to be like someone else...especially a hot mess like Lindsay Lohan.

I started my fitness lifestyle just before turning 45, I was around 265lbs, now I hover between 155 - 160lbs at the ripe "old" age of 47. Now my focus is building more muscle.
