I live by myself and LOVE cooking for one. At the moment my son is back from University and he is blowing both my grocery budget and my leftovers strategy :laugh: George Foreman is my best friend. Steak, chicken, gammon, pork chops - it all cooks so quickly. Trying to cure my jerk paste addiction though :tongue: Then I…

My big, fat, white, wobbly, covered in cellulite and completely out of proportion with the rest of my body THIGHS!

Body weight exercises - you can get your grrr on without having access to a gym or loads of expensive equipment. Nerd Fitness has a great body weight routine or just Google, there are shedloads. Resistance is your friend :)

Form - watch videos on you tube - then watch some more Warm up - even for lifting 'light' weights Stretch - helps your range of motion and helps prevent injury Not knowing what movements you were doing yesterday can't be more specific but the above are pretty good for most situations. Can't be DOMS unless you were head…

Hi guys Well after falling off the wagon with a thump in November I am back in the game. I was doing Stronglifts 5x5 which I loved but found the continual progression of weight a struggle, particularly in the upper body lifts (OHP truly sucked.) Anyway I’m returning to lifting and eating well and have done a bit more…

Just one thing???? A new job. I am so miserable here. However, it's a job, it pays the bills, in this economy yadda yadda yadda. I try and see the good in it but dang, it's hard. I'm normally a super chilloed person and hate carrying anxiety round in my tummy about something as stupid as a job. As soon as Christmas is out…

First off I can't ever imagine a circumstance where anyone I was involved with would discuss my weight with people who had never met me - and if they did (which they better hadn't!) I would hope they wouldn't then tell me! What was your boyfriend thinking? That aside, listen, you are who you are. The only person's opinion…

Whit Whoo! You look fab-u-larse! Loving the guns :smile:

Dude, like if you want to have a totally rulin thigh gap you need to be rockin out the squats, Don't go below parallel though, I mean a semi squat should probs do it, just make sure you dont get anywhere near parallel or below - if you screw your knees doing *kitten* to the grass squats aint no one gonna be seeing your…

It drives me insane when people don't scoop the poop. I have 2 critters, I can manage to scoop their poop, why the friggidy feck can't you?????? Rhetorical you obvs. In the UK it is very, very rare to see stray dogs milling around anymore, strays normally get picked up pretty damn quick. So that means for every poo that I…

I would get allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the pugs that needed rescuing..............and maybe the bostons and the french bulldogs, the waa waas and the griffons............................. and have a big *kitten* small dog sanctuary.

Me and the missus make a point of buying one new gorgeous tree ornament every year. it means that when we decorate the tree we have lovely reminders of past Christmases and how far we've come and all that malarkey........

You rule. Well done!

Jillian would kick your *kitten* if she saw you hanging on hard enough to cause callouses. Just sayin........

Wellbert, if you couple your cleanse with wrapping your upper thighs in multiple rashers of bacon you will have an awesome thigh gap in only 7 days. The bacon acts like a fat magnet on any cellulite and draws it all out. Couple this with body brushing with pork rinds and you'll be rocking that mankini in no time. Fact.

Not sure your dayghter would be happy right now if she could see the first post Jim :laugh:

Congratulations! Awwww for the future baba :smile: Well, workout 1 again last night - squats rock, putting plates on the floor meant my bench showed a marked improvement but rows? BLEURGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! This is my 5th week (and I started lower than y'all because of a history of back problems) and I keep stalling. I…

- Assess where I actually am - Set a new goal - Work on building some kick *kitten* muscle definition - Then keep building more muscle - Buy ridiculously inapporpriate for my age bikini and wear it with a devil may care attitude - when these thighs and belly go I wont give two hoots what anyone else thinks!

Had this same convo with someone on Facebook last night - I want to tone but I don't want to look like Fatima Whitbread! - 5 minute lecture later and hopefully my friend has enough pointers to start finding her way through to lifting. I love it. I've been eating healthier for 2 and a half months, I've been lifting for a…

It's really hard to let go of what the scale tells you to a certain extent. But at the end of the day the scale is an arbitary measure, what matters is how you look and feel. If you do everything right, if you stick to it consistently, if you log properly, if you eat enough - you know, all the things we know we should be…

I'm thinking I need something to eat pre workout as opposed to my normal eat a snack about 2.30 then workout at 6 - might just need a wee peanut buttery something :laugh: Other than that my diet is really good, 90% of the time - on a 40:30:30 split and eating TONS of delicious meat :drinker: I have to remember that failure…

Right now I can't think of any food that is worth spending an hour on a treadmill for :wink:

Pretty awful workout tonight - managed to deload instead of load my bench and then my rows - bleurgh. I had to have a steern talking to myself at set 3 to stop dialling it in and put some welly into it. All in all I'm loving squats and deads and stuggling like a struggling thing on anything that requires upper body…

Just had my very own derp moment - I've been struggling with my bench so i racked up, cracked out my 5 sets and I was YAY! Concentrating on my form is really paying off, this is SO much easier. Yup, I'd got my sums wrong and instead of adding 2.5kgs I'd deloaded 2.5. :blushing: . I wouldn't mind but I was flat on my back…
