Thank you! I appreciate the input.

Thanks for the replies....I figured it was assumed that I was lifting since I'm trying to put on muscle. Yes, I lift 5-6 days a week-squats, deadlifts, lunges, benchpress, assisted pull-ups, then plenty of access lifts. I have my body fat measured by Dexa scan twice a year but I cannot afford to do it more often. In…

Thanks!

Yummm...I just made one with 1 scoop of shakeology (chocolate), 2 tbsp PB2, water-cooked it for 90 sec, stirring midway and topped it with 2 tbsp fat free cool whip. Wow. 220 cal, 22 g protein, 7 g fiber 3g fat FOR A BROWNIE :)

i think I am making this tonight, it sounds AMAZING

he's just Not That into You :(

I don't feel like it is a whole lot of fun from this girl's end. I went out with a guy Friday and we split an appetizer and I drank water. We had amazing conversation, I really enjoyed myself, thought he did too. Offered when the check came, he paid it. We went outside talked for a while....when he asked to go back to my…

oh, yum!

I would swoon if a guy took me on a picnic date :) I generally offer to pay, say thank you if he does and then if we're together several times just alternate who pays...I have 6 brothers and I know how they struggled with WANTING to go out but having to limit b/c of money...at the same time if the guy does NOT offer to pay…

I have upped my calories from 1200 to 1900 over the last 3 months w/o getting bigger...I've gained back about 4 lbs but went down on body fat %....and when out on Friday night a very hot guy I just met complimented me on my "amazing shoulders". This to a girl who NEVER wore a sleveless top before this year. Crazy cool.…

Do you think it is the same for girls? I was sick of hearing the "getting too skinny" comments so I upped my calories and doing more weights. So far I am happy with the results but I had a dexa body scan done and found out I am still 20% body fat and my goal is to be 12-14%. They break it up to show WHERE the fat is...on…

I always enter my bodypump as circuit training...it is a good average of the 2...I just bought a heartrate monitor so I can know for sure...can't wait for it to arrive :)

You look great! Be proud of yourself! I think both looks are attractive, not sure that I prefer one over the other. As long as the guys is bigger than me so I can feel feminine (it is NO fun to be bigger than your mister!)and the heart and personality attached to the whatever sized muscles are nice and SINCERE, we're good.…

I was fat ALL of my life. I weighed 10lbs more than I weigh now in 3rd grade and I was a foot shorter then. No, I was never "used" to it. I was always acutely aware of my weight, my size, my fat. I wished to be skinny, I read about dieting but never made any progress. I still FEEL like the fat girl. I am surprised every…

MFP is def winning my time. All of my IRL friends are done with hearing about fitness or nutrition from me. Some are just bored with it and some are NOT as thrilled with my weight loss as I am...for various reasons, I guess. But it is truly my #1 priority right now and it's nice to have people who get that. And appreciate…

yum! I wonder if you could use oatmeal instead of flour...

Thanks!

yum

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stick with it! BP is an amazing workout. I have had great results with it and it is the 1st time in my life I enjoy working out. I kind of think it should be on an infomercial....except it actually works!

Heaviest weight 211 current weight 125-130 (back and forth, back and forth) I alternate walking and jogging in 1-2 minute intervals, I want to be able to just run but it is a work in progress. I LOVE the rowing machine. I HATE the stairmaster, which means I need to spend more time on there. I increase my time a minute each…

waiting...super curious :)

waiting for info......super curious:smile:

You rock! She is lucky to have you!

yummmm

Me too!!! I completed one round of P90X, light weight lifting and then 3 months of BodyPump classes. I bought the NROL4W book and am trying to work up the courage to head over to the "boy's side" of the gym, but I am terrified!

Bump, just got my book...
