congrats to you!!! whooo hooo!!!

yeah... that sounds like balanced nutrition.. I'm an extremist in the fact that I'm not extreme at all. This is dumb.

^^ this. That was awesome!. Haha everyone is going to feel inclined to write when they started MFP.. it's like shoutouts to yourself.

Slow and steady is a better indicator for maintaining weight loss so I would give it 1-1.5 lbs a week with consistent calorie logging/exercise. Physique improvements are more rewarding for me so make sure you have other ways to measure success as well like measurements/body fat testings/clothing fit

Nah.. you had your "ah ha" moment let them have theirs.. Unless it's your child or something. When they want to get healthy they will use you as a resource =)

I have issues with my knee but definitely not to the severity that you do. I don't know if you've tried wrapping, but it is supposed to help quite a bit and they're pretty cheap online. You may also consider using the leg press alternating with barbell squats every other workout or so to lessen the load on your back and so…

:flowerforyou: Right here

I use it. I'm sure compared to all the other crap food I was putting in my body before I still have to be doing better than I was lol.. moderation is the key in anything.

I would never go to the city if I was followed this motto.. I just make adjustments so I can do the things I love but be prepared for other things that could happen... Also you do it because you want to do it because you enjoy the recreation but not at the expense of safety!

My friend was pursued at 9 in the morning while having her son with her in a suburban area. Sometimes creeps come to nice areas because they know nice people are there. Also, having it and using it are different things and I don't think anyone has promoted just shooting anyone for no reason.

INSANE AMOUNTS! LOL But when you finally get one they know you're more than qualified to own it lol

People who are responsible gun owners with permits are rarely the ones you need to be concerned about. You wouldn't know the person with a permit was carrying if they didn't need it. I guess it depends on location. I'm a Californian but everyone in my family owns guns, and my friends as well. It's not a big deal as long as…

A friend of mine just posted on FB this morning that she was jogging and a truck slowed down and was tracking her and this was aroudn 9 this morning.. she bolted 3 blocks and banged on someone's door. Run with bear mase, run with a knife, I would run with a gun (granted you have the correct permits and know how to use it).…

I figured that this would happen to me that's why I haven't bought one.

Thanks for the update!

i'm 5'7 1/2 and i would say a pretty large frame. Goal weight around 148 but i'm not sure I'm gonna make it that low.. Currently 158lbs. Really don't care how many pounds I am just wanna drop the body fat to about 16-18% Side note about body frame: I thought when i weighed more (size 14) that I was a "large" frame and I…

omg you're hilarious

OMG LOL... I have full lips and apparently full thighs lol..

everything you need in the very first post. I was gonna post it but was beat to the punch. Good luck to you =)

after about a 2-3 weeks I started with light exercise like walking and progressed to running and some circuit training videos. and really just grown from there. Spin hurts your butt at first but you will get used to it. I love it because you choose your own intensity level. It's a great workout! TRY IT!!

Nah I'm good with it. Girls... now that annoys me.

Thanks! @wildcat pretty!

handsome

wouldn't recommended it. Don't starve. Don't binge. Eat right. Exercise. Results will come.

keep lifting, challenge yourself, I'm not sure what your macro breakdown is but you may want to modify it. It doesn't sound like you really have a "weight loss" goal anymore but a body composition goal. Lifting will help you meet those goals (see my pics) I haven't lost many pounds but total recomp of my physique. Best of…

i'm almost 5'8 and 158 lol.. don't meet much of the criteria but good luck to you =)

28 and that actually surprises me that it's so high. I feel great about myself most of the time... maybe it's because TOM lol. BUMPING to take in a couple of weeks to make sure
