Victoria's secret incredible sports bra

You can book a session (or more) with a personal trainer to be taught proper form and different lifts. Look up stronglifts 5x5 watch youtube videos on form and lifts

Start a strength training program. Stronglifts 5x5 is a great start. Start paying attention to your macros, and to get a good idea of the calories you want for your goals try http://scoobysworkshop.com/accurate-calorie-calculator/

Yay medically assisted bulimia! Just. Why?

I recently did a paper for my nutrition class about different eating disorders. Made me think of binge eating disorder. Here is some information about it: http://www.anad.org/get-information/about-eating-disorders/binge-eating-disorder/ But, obviously I'm not a Dr., so if you think you have something going on in your life…

It was only "unpleasant work" when I restricted food groups and set an unrealistic calorie goal and did too much cardio. I eat what I want within reason. I really enjoy cooking and eating food. I enjoy knowing the nutritional content of food and how certain nutrients benefit my body and brain. I enjoy doing reasonable…

I ate at a deficit to lose weight, did cardio and weight lifting to maintain strength. When I wanted to gain muscle I ate a surplus while doing 5x5. Now I am again eating at a very modest deficit to look more lean (while still lifting and doing cardio). I have been pretty pleased with the results. I find when I focus more…

Got it. Will stick to paint chips.

Sorry that happened to you. You know that sort of behavior is not okay and don't behave that way yourself so you are already a step ahead. Sick people do sick things. When someone is unkind I attempt to take a step back and realize everyone has their own demons, and that I don't need to allow their problems to become my…

^^ This! I had to switch birth control and get a prescription to clear it up initially because nothing worked. After that I switched to cetaphil cleanser and Cera Ve moisturizers and rarely wear makeup, and never wear makeup to the gym. I haven't had an issue since. Hope that helps

Yes! Do this.

I've heard good things about using monistat soothing care chafing relief for preventing razor burn/ingrown hairs. It's not very expensive. Maybe worth a shot? If that doesn't work maybe your Dr. can prescribe something?

We just covered protein in my nutrition course, and from what I understand, excess protein will go to waste and be excreted from your body. Long periods of excessive protein intake can place unnecessary stress on your kidneys. *Edited to include the recommendations are .8/lb of body weight and slightly more (though I don't…

Creepiest pick up like ever: "Mmmm. Hey girl, you look just like my sister' :huh:

Yes! I got the "Incredible" style and I love it. Best high impact sports bra I have owned.

Find somewhere to donate it? Idk, maybe a soup kitchen or shelter or somewhere would take it? Make some phone calls and see if places like that will take it. Or take it to work to share?

I've seen it on either side, and have been guilty of it myself. I don't think it's a "woman" thing or a "man" thing to not express one's actual feelings, but a reluctance to face potentially confrontational situations.

My brain is a potato!

Beat me to it :grumble:

Find out your tdee. Eat at a 20% deficit if you are trying to lose. Eat a balanced diet. Get adequate protein, carbs, fats, fiber. Drink adequate water. Get some exercise. You don't need pills you just need to eat enough, fit your macros.

This was a well written and uplifting thing to read. Good for you! Enjoy your new body, improved health, and clothes.

Or make casseroles with things like diced chicken, campbells 98% fat free soup and canned veggies bulk inexpensive frozen fish will steam quickly and give you lean protein Black beans, brown rice, salsa, sour cream and avocado…
