Yep! It's usually to help make you more efficient! (See article) but when you think about it, do they seem a little silly? "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I was on Depo from age 16-25. While I believe it increased appetite.. I still lost all the weight I put on with it before switching up BC (now on implant). It could be a factor, but with consistent diet and exercise, I don't believe you have a problem, just an "excuse". "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D…

YEP!!!!!! "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

GREAT JOB!! Congrats!! "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I never know how to keep a conversation going, I'm bad at asking questions.. so if I'm around someone who sucks at it too.. *Crickets!* I've gotten much better at being a bit more outgoing around others in the last few years but still is awkward! Especially when people may not realize how shy I can actually be! Probably…

If I'm hungry, I eat. Depending on what I've eaten throughout the day will determine what I eat later. Right before bed I find popcorn nice as it's low cals (though high in sodium if you have to watch that) and it takes me a min to eat. I usually plan my last meal for 8pm (I work til 10pm) usually in bed by 11pm. I wake up…

Sleep!! :yawn: Work two jobs.. got out day job 30min early.. time for a nap! :)

No Problem!! :flowerforyou: "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I think I'd like to go too! :)

New to the group! I live in Little Canada.. Grew up in Corcoran. Lived in MN my whole life other than my 3 years spent in the Air Force stationed in Germany :) "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I've been training unilaterally for a few weeks and doing more reps with my left side.. Have already noticed some improvements on equality. Unilaterally can be either done with just more reps or more weight or a drop set on the weaker side... :smile: "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I accept new friends :) MFP really helped me stay on track and I still use it everyday! SW:180 CW:130 "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness (Daily Motivational Posts!)

Every morning M-F.. Never gets old! :) First thing AM -- 1 cup of milk with MuscleTech Protein powder (230 cals) Breakfast -- 3 Scram eggs, 1 cup brocolli, onions and green peppers (300 cals) Usually a Chobani Yogurt as well (140 cals) "Lift Heavy!

I believe there is no "right" time, but as long as you do it the same time every day. I personally do it right when I wake up to see how my water retention is doing, because remember the scale doesn't tell you how fit/fat you are.

I love my abs! It was the last/hardest place to lose.. so once I achieved that, I could focus on other parts much easier! :happy: "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

I live in Minnesota! Currently living in Little Canada, but I'm from Corcoran (NW Suburb) "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness (Daily Motivation Posts)

I'm not a morning person either.. My motivation is just not there yet. You really don't need to workout in the morning if you can workout at a different time. I workout between the hours 3:30-4:30 M-F ... Sometime late morning 10-12ish on Saturdays.. and 6pm-8pm on Sundays.. I just do it when I can. But if it's a goal you…

Yep! Agreed!! My BF said the perfect thing when I was a little "down" on my lost boobs.. he said "Hey, when you were a little heavier you had boobs, but now you have a smoking body.... win, win for me!" LMAO! So either way, we have something we like about ourselves, and something we wish we could change.. who's perfect…

I'm 5'5" at 130lbs.. Currently in a 2/4 but when I started I was 180lbs 10/12... =D "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness (Your source for Daily Motivation!)

Can I just move in with you? :-)

That may be true, but the point is that, yes, a certain time may give you a little "boost" but you don't need to miss out on a workout because you can't do it at that time. I know people who have missed an entire day's worth of exercise just because it wasn't done at "optimal" time... and that's not good. Especially for…

This is similar to how I feel... Crazy how being more fit does all that. I feel like I can accomplish more, and I have the energy to do so. I won't be stuck spinning my wheels my whole life. It's a snowball affect. Feel a little better, do a little more, which makes you feel even better, which starts to show to others,…

I'm with ya! Feel free to check out my diary.. I tend to eat very similiar things throughout a week so feel free to jump around week to week. I run 4-5x/wk for 20-25min and I lift 5-6x/wk for 45-60min. "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness ("Like" to get Motivated!!)

Eggs would only affect you in that way if you have pre-existing bad cholesterol. If you are a healthy individual, you should have no problem with a few more yolks. (For example I eat 3 whole eggs every morning and on occasion 2-3 more in the afternoon). I <3 Eggs too! :) "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D…

I eat 1800-2200 cals.. (netting 1500-1700)... I have no idea how people can eat less, as I'm always hungry!! :) "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness ("LIKE" to get motivated!!)

Like when the sidewalk is blocked for repavement.... but I don't mind gettin whistled at by the construction workers neither... lol!!! "Lift Heavy! Run Hard!" =D www.facebook.com/jenaesmithfitness

Everytime!! I also use Mapmyrun app!! LOVE IT!! I really don't think I'd be running like I do if it wasn't for that app!
