  • I think you missed the part about "planning to pick it back up again but haven't" or perhaps the eating clean portion freaked you out for some strange reason? I never said I was on the 17 Day Diet, or on Atkins. Let me clarify "eating clean" as it means in this situation: that means no processed breads full of stabilizers,…
  • 150 and I'll re-access then. I carry weight really proportionately so what I really want is my face to look how I want which sounds really vein when it's said out loud but I don't think it's a silly goal. Everything seems to fall into place once that goal is achieved.
  • I make overnight oats and then doctor them to my liking after I reheat them in different variations like adding a few (cold) scoops to dark berry smoothies, adding an egg and other savory add-ins for a protein boost, eating with greek yogurt, walnuts or almonds and some form of fruit. It satisfies the sweet tooth that I…
  • I know this won't work for everyone but I've largely cut out meat other than whole chicken and occasionally pork. I am also on a food budget so seafood is my favorite but it's less frequent than I would like. I always buy salmon when it's at a fair price. I also cut out most dairy except parmesan and greek plan yogurt as…
  • I've collected a bunch on my Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/anyatika/inspire/ I have this one hanging above my desk in my kitchen as it applies to school, getting healthy, and everything else: "If you want something you've never had then you must do something you've never done."
  • Interesting. Thank you for that. Specialist doctors are definitely not within my budget so I'll be mindful and continue working on form over reps.
  • lol @ don't get pregnant
  • Oh, and to get this blasted ring off my middle finger. I've always vowed I would slip it off rather than break off my finger to remove it. I put it on as a sophomore in high school and while it holds sentimental value it would mean much more to be back to that weight. Which is totally doable. Oh, the high school days when…
  • Awesome. Thank you. I have no pain while working out which is weird because the faint pain that I ever experience just crops up other times in life. If I thought about my best guess it would be walking up stairs. It's not even pain, just sensitivity. I'm thinking I may get a brace. The twisting and wobbling can not be good…
  • The worst part about drinking is the bastardization of the bartending world. Sour mix? Garbage. It's all empty calories full of fake sugars and chemicals. Gross. I didn't even drink it when I wasn't bothering with calories or health. The juice mixers that you get at your run of the mill bar are crap. They're food coloring,…
  • That's amazing!! Congratulations on finding what makes you happy and sticking with it. It will only get better everyday. :)
  • That's awesome! I want to eventually get into lifting as well. I want to get into good shape for all the reasons... I want to beat up the boys that I've always rough housed with. :) I want to look great in whatever I'm wearing and I know everyone has their moments. To get my health up and that means inside and out. I've…
  • Here is what I know: I drink Stoli or Tito's and soda with plenty of citrus. I drink lots of water as well while I'm drinking. I've read that DRY champagne and DRY red wine has the least calories next to vodka as well. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. I used to be big into craft beer but I don't really like beer anymore.…
  • Bump for the super sad weight stall that has happened with having just started P90x. I was on a steady decline (of course with a stall or a pound or two gain here and there) and since I have started P90x I have noticed about a 4 pound increase since the morning after I started. I forgot I had read about this "phenomenon"…
  • Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes, I may have eaten under for just starting P90x but I don't feel bad. Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Yes, I started a paper that is shaping up well. I did my second day of P90x and ate correctly. What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? I woke up at 7am to workout.…
  • Well, I absolutely hate running. I used to try in the YMCA on the treadmill in intervals but it's the worst. I do like biking though and I'll be checking out the Pinellas Trail for sure. Pretty stoked on that one. Thanks for the suggestions!
  • Hello all, I am finally getting on the proverbial horse. I started P90x today, Classic version. I'm already down 17 lbs. and I CAN NOT WAIT for more to come off. My stats: H- 5'8" SW- 200 CW- 182 GW- 145 Age- 32 on 8/20 F St Pete, FL I am combining a low carb (I cheat with beans and vegan bread sometimes), low gluten, low…
  • It's frustrating how many calculations there are out there and how they fluctuate in a range of about 500. I would guess that I was eating a quite low calorie diet (in the past months) up until when I start my new calorie plan for P90x today (Once I figure that out, and I am sure it will need to be tweaked.) around 1000…
  • Ah. Yes. 182 5'8 I have plugged in exercise at 6x/week because I am starting P90x today.
  • I already drink almond milk and I work in a health food store so my diet is largely vegetarian/vegan but I do eat meat, usually not red unless it's grassed/humane so it's more like a reward when I rarely eat it. We have a plant protein powder I will buy and mix that with the almond to replace. Even if I had the $ for…
  • I'm single, no kids, near 32 in a few, and down 15 of the 50 I want to lose. Feel free to add me! :)
  • Hello. I'm looking to lose 35 now as I've already lost some since my last login. I'm starting P90x soon. I'm way lazy but I've largely changed how I eat and I want bigger results faster. Hence my P90x decision. Let's be buds and motivate one another. I'm single, no kids, in college.
  • I'm in St. Pete and interested in the Pinellas trail. Where does the trail start in downtown St. Pete? Also, I want to start P90x. Yikes!
  • I weigh everyday. It's almost a game. I am excited to see the scale move as I lose. When I get the courage to start p90x again I will need to weigh in less and measure more but I don't know if I can.
  • So, I started P90x but I moved out of state and haven't picked it back up. Also, I will have to use it in my kitchen by moving the dining table because my studio is so small. But! I have lost 15 pounds just by changing how I eat. That,on top of the workouts would've incredible if I can findthemotivation.
  • I need to find a cheaper Shakeology replacement...
  • Hello. I'm waiting on P90x to arrive next week. YIKES!!! I'll be starting the diet plan today.
