Heavy is relative to the lifter and his/her background and strength. Heavy is anything I can do about 5 or less times and feel quite exhausted and need a recovery/rest period before attempting again.

Depends on how fast/slow you are walking and what kind of terrain you are walking on. Anywhere from 5-10 cals burned per minute is possible depending on your speed and intensity while walking. So maybe you are filling it in wrong.

I would look for a barbell set that came with iron weights instead of plastic, filled, etc. Rubber bumper weights (like are used in Crossfit gyms) are nice but are more expensive than iron so that may be out of the question for home use. I think my barbell is made by CAP but I can't remember - I know the weights are. It's…

Aside from LIFT SOME HEAVY WEIGHTS, you really can't spot reduce. Women tend to carry extra fat in their arms (that's why it hangs or looks so much thicker in some areas) and it's one of the later places to lose fat (in my experience). My arms look thick when they are hanging by my sides - but all women's arms do (unless…

I've heard this from a LOT of JM DVD users....maybe find another program to help strengthen your knees. Nothing wrong with squats and lunges - those really do help. In fact when people complain of knee pain it's usually because they AREN'T squatting and thus their knees aren't used to it and they think they shouldn't do…

I did Turbo Jam for awhile and then as I got more coordinated I switched to Turbo Fire. It was a blast! I felt soreness in areas I didn't know existed - all from throwing punches and kicks. My back (especially lower) started to lean out significantly as well. I love the program, even though I tend to hate cardio, and I…

Weight loss is all about hormones....you are adding hormones to your body so naturally its going to throw you off. How, exactly, I can't say. But it's a side effect that is common in many (if not most) forms of BC. I just use the pull-and-pray method now...my body doesn't need any added hormones apart from what it may…

I've lost 67 lbs so not sure I qualify for your research here....but the majority of that weight was lost eating 1600-1900 cals a day (the low end on days I didn't exercise, the higher end on days I did exercise). In essence - yes I ate my exercise calories as MFP defaulted me to 1200 cals a day since I was a little…

Unless it's waffles or pancakes, I don't much care for breakfast. But hard cooked eggs are my default breakfast standard. Sprinkled salt and they are perfect for grabbing on the go. If I have time I'll scramble them up with some diced peppers, onions, cilantro, and turkey sausage and make an egg slop of sorts. It's really…

Pre-poop, post-poop, and always post-binge. It's fun. Kidding. Once a month. The scale is a lying, deceptive POS.

are you racist? EAT THE POTATOOOOO

boom. 'Nuff said. /thread

dumb thread is dumb.

hmmmm

Mine can and will do anything I ask him. *ANYTHING*.....yeah, I'm lucky. REAL lucky.

Gotta be realllly sick (or injured) for me to not go. Otherwise - push through it all. I always feel better after a hard workout.

Raspberries are loaded with fiber. *wink* I think all fruit in moderation is fine. No fruit is bad, no fruit is better than another - they all bring different qualities to the table.

baby bizzle

Oh Tyler - you are just begging me to fart on your page today. I see how you get my attention....you are starved for it. I'll try harder.

Husband's gamer tag was Ripdizzle (based on a combination of last name and appreciation for the old Snoop Dogg tracks)....so I became MrsRipdizzle. Then I deactivated and came back with the_dizzle because people had shortened Ripdizzle to that in my prior activities here. :)

QFT! It's all about you - ask yourself if the stuff you are entertaining putting in your mouth is going to take you one step closer or further from your goals. Then feel good about whatever decision you made.

wait, I thought three times a day was normal? Pre-poop, post-poop, and post-binge?? *I'm doing it all wrong!*

Will it stop you from losing weight? At only 40-80 cals extra per day? Uhm, not unless you're eating a bucket of it...and not moving much. It might not be "the healthiest snack" by some fear mongers' reasoning but it has gelatin in it - good for the joints and bones!

I'm a simple girl - I've not found a better tastin' burger than at Red Robin. Just the gourmet cheeseburger with cheddar for me. *licks lips*

53 any time I check but I've never checked just after waking up when I think it is the lowest.

New words that have expanded my vocabulary - like twatwaffle and douchepickle and douchecanoe. My real life friends think I am so witty and cool now when I use these never-heard-before words. *brushes shoulda off* yeahhhh, cool I said.

A cookie is a cookie - be happy when you get cookie - not everyone is so fortunate.

I have this problem. I like Lucky Jeans Lola stretch or Sofia stretch. Also, GAP curvy accommodates well as do White House Black Market's "contour" jeans.

I already sent you a FR you turd.
