Lol I wear makeup if I'm going straight to the gym after school or work. But I agree that by the time you leave, it shouldn't still look good.

Instead of the whole wheat bread, see if you can find a sprouted grain bread. Much healthier. I like Ezekiel. It's found in the freezer section. I also suggest vega one protein powder for added protein. French vanilla is my favorite. Vanilla chai I have heard is also good. Also instead of splenda, I suggest stevia. It's…

Redhead's and ginger's are different. ;) I'm a redhead. Carrot tops are ginger's lol. :)

Thank you! You've been very helpful.

I downloaded the app, it looks very helpful. Getting stronger and getting toned is essentially going to do the same thing. :)

Thank you!

What I really desperately need help with is what exercises to do, when to do them, and how much weight to use. That's where I struggle the most.

Starting strength... okay I'll look into that one as well. Thank you!

Hmmm, I'll research them both before I start then. I really need routines that are easy for me to understand.

Thanks! I think I'll join the NR group and go for it. I can always do the other one if that one is too hard. :)

Thank you! I bough the New Rules of Lifting for Women book awhile ago and never read it. I guess I had better get on it!

Thank you!

Agreed, is it possible that you could be pregnant? If your doctor ignores you or doesn't at least entertain the idea that something may be wrong please seek a second opinion. This doesn't sound normal to me or like something you should just have to put up with. There has to be a medical cause for it.

Awesome, thanks for sharing!

I don't have any pictures. But I'm 4'11 and 131 at the moment. Trying to get down to around 110. :)

Really needed this, I'm scale obsessed! You look amazing, great job!

Then he should talk to her about why he isn't happy and see if they can find a way to fix things and make it work. Marriage is a SACRED VOW. Not something you can just decide to stop when you get bored or things aren't perfect anymore.

I drink a lotttt of coffee! It doesn't make a difference - unless you start adding all the junk to it. Just make sure you don't count it as a water for the day and still drink your eight glasses. :)

I actually have done all sorts of "low calorie" diets. But as I am extremely active, I have to eat A LOT for my body to be willing to stop holding on to fat. Unfortunately it took me months to figure that out, lol. I'm actually a very healthy eater and I exercise. The point of this board was to figure out the science…

This is exactly what I was actually questioning!! ^^^^^

I didn't misunderstand.

1/2 - I think 121.6 or close to that :) 1/9 - 119.4 1/16 - 119.8 1/23 - 120.6 1/30 - 119.4 (again. -_-) 2/6 - 118.6 (FINALLYYYY! :D :D :D) 2/13 - 118.4 2/20 - 117.6 :D

I wan't looking for an "easy way." I'm researching. I don't know why I post topics on here, when everyone is so judgmental and harsh.

Wrong. Eating less is not helpful.

If I was given three days to live I surely wouldn't be dieting during them. Even in 30.

It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the military. It's just what it's called. I don't really care what it's called or why. I was just curious as to people opinions and experiences with the calorie deficit part of it. :)

It's "real food" on the diet. (Besides the fact that there's ice cream.) The only thing off about it would be adding exercise. I doubt I'll do it, but it's interesting to see all the different opinions.

Understandable. I'm a firm believer of eating above BMI now though. I DO believe in metabolic destruction. Just my opinion though, and I respect yours. :)
