Both suits are cute! I actually liked the cut/shape of the first one better and agree that it just needed a couple of sizes up. Anyway, the new one looks great too but I feel like you got shamed into wearing a full coverage one piece : / You even look less happy in the second pic... I am surpised by is the sentiment in…

Mesomorph lady here! At least i think so because 1. People are always surprised that I weigh so much (132 lbs) and 2. My body holds on to muscle easier than it does fat (When I loose weight, I get more "cut" as opposed to skinny if that makes sense). The thing you have to realize is that the number on the scale is not real…

My diet was never "terrible," I was just a bad vegetarian who ate too much of the wrong stuff and indulged too often. Some of the things I used to eat a lot but realize that I don't miss: -White Rice: iIs still good as heck, but I am just fine with my quinoa or brown rice. I don't feel like I'm missing out -Pre packaged…

Lost about 10 pounds after Insanity combined with diet and other exercise so yep; worked for me! I even plan to do another round

Yes I have definitely noticed that most people here want large amounts of muscle gains. Me, not so much. I want to get stronger and leaner but muscle mass built is not my ultimate goal. So i guess I technically can strength train and still do all of my cardio. Just not expect to build muscle mass?

Long story short, no, you do not have to count calories to loose weight. Many people choose to count calories because they never really thought about what theyw were eating before and counting the calories gives them that "wake up call." Some people count calories because they like the sense of control/ structure that…

I'll bite. I am 5'5 1/2". Started at 145 and my original goal was 130. reached that and now I would like to sculpy my physique a bit more so I am not really concerned about the scale but I imagine that I will not try to go lower than 125 as I have an athletic build and a medium frame and lower than that would probably look…

Meh. The roaches wouldn't bother me. I mean it is nature, the food we eat has had all sorts of stuff crawling on it...unless it is sprayed with pesticides which is more gross to me than the bugs. You seem mostly concerned about superficial cleanliness as opposed to the way the food was grown but i could have taken that…

I am a chip lover and have discovered these healthier alternatives. Salty- pickles(There are many varieties to choose from), nori sheets ( the seaweed used to roll sushi) rice cake crisps, Mary's Gone Crackers( in health good aisle) popcorn, Snappea Crisps ( at grocery store) Crunchy- cucumbers slices, bell peppers, carrot…

And DON'T get me started on that inner thigh gap that "every woman can have with lots of squates and lunges." I cannot even imagine a life where my thighs to not come together when standing naturally. :sad: !

. Yes I think due to the dancing I have strong leg muscles beneath some pudge :(

Honestly, My thighs are the only reason why I want to loose weight. I would be ok with the upper body if my thighs matched but I figure shedding 10 lbs will give me a better overall feeling about my body

Thanks!

lol! @ work now but I think I might be able to add a pic in a minute

I am joining that facebook page asap! So glad to know that there is a likeminded community of Tanya haters out there lol

An easy way to prep shakes for breakfast is to put all of the ingredients (berries, yogurt, veggies, protein powder) into individual freezable containers /ziplock bags way ahead of time like sunday afternoon. The night before you use one, pop it into the fridge to thaw, then toss it into the blender with some milk in the…

I love quinoa just straight up like rice (rince it several times!) but if you are felling more adventurous....You can make quinoa "fried rice" by cooking it accoring to the package and then sauteeing in come oil with egg, veggies, and soy sauce. Or try using it instead of oats to bind things like black bean burgers, meat…
