its great for more than just weight loss-as previously mentioned. I take 2 tablespoons in the am before my breakfast and it helps me to not feel bloated throughout the day. It is also awesome for your skin! I have read that it balances out the acid in your stomach (even though we would think it messes it up seeing as it is…

I wasn't so much concerned about my organs as much as it being more than my body needs. if the more the merrier even when trying to cut, then I'm happy with having that much! Thanks guys! :)

RainAndPain... 20?

hi! I'm 5'0. My original goal was 130 but it's now 110. you'd be amazed at how little we short women really can weigh without looking too thin! I was about 125 in my profile pic if that gives u an indication of the weight :)

spike days TOTALLY work!! :flowerforyou:

I started eating really strict through the week with a spike day on saturdays.. it has proven to work AMAZINGLY. I've lost 6 pounds in two weeks doing this, and my body fat % has dropped 3%. its amazing how doing something you feel is totally taboo can be such a great thing for your body! also, it keeps you sane!!

I've been worried about this too. but what I have done is planned out all my days, taking into consideration those days where temptation will be its highest and making them my cheat days. my goal is to lose weight over the holiday season for once in my life... or at least stay right at the weight I am. I find having a plan…

Are u kidding?? It sure as hell feels like longer than 3 minutes let me tell you! I swear mine go on for hours- or until I satisfy the damn urge. We must vow to fight harder, or for at least 4 minutes!

I really wish I had read this an hour ago.

just got a tattoo yesterday! its persian writing on the back of my neck. it says beauty... i don't know how to upload pics!

lol.

the problem is that you can't target where your fat comes off. I was constantly told by my trainers that you CANNOT spot reduce fat. And if you read up on it, you will learn that in order to get a flat stomach, it's not about doing ab workouts, it's about losing the fat first. In order to do that, my best guess would be…

I've heard that strength training helps, but my problem is that I already do that :(

the carb cycling looks pretty awesome too. I just got a mac so I don't know how to copy and paste a link but i found the info on bodybuilding.com. as soon as i can figure out how to do it, ill post the link. i think putting the two together could work pretty awesome!

woohooo!!! now I know what I might look like soon! you look AWESOME!

yummm going to make these tonight!

oh my GOD! she looks AMAZING! I'm 22 and I would kill to have that bod!

I just said no to eating all the tempting things you people just posted! :laugh:

if you aren't starving when eating 1200 cals a day then I say you're fine. Sometimes I struggle to get to 1000 and it's because im simply not hungry. If you find that on 1200 you are hungry then try to see what you could change in terms of what will keep you more full. But don't worry about the 1200, calories are annoying…

just DO IT! I feel soo great when I'm weightlifting among all the guys. It's kind of empowering to be the only girl in a room full of men doing exactly what they're doing (much less weight in most cases lol) but honestly, I don't know why there arent more women in there with them, the smart one's lift weights to see better…

dont let yourself be hungry! that was the worst for me! also, at one point I was working out WAY too much and I was consistently losing energy! give yourself rest days in between workouts and you will be golden:flowerforyou:

instead of soy milk try almond milk, it has away less calories and carbs! also, instead of all the fruit you are eating, i would eat veggies- they are also much lower in cals, carbs, and sugar! you will feel much better! I eat 1300 cals a day so if you want to add me and take a look at my diary you are more than welcome! I…

unfortunately I dont think 5lb weights will do the trick. it's important to lift as heavy weight as you can to help those muscles shine! but yes pushups are good, as well as tricep dips (with those you are using your own body weight so it works better!)

its probably due to sodium and such that you "gained" the 2 lbs. I would wait until tomorrow and see if you are still 114, you probably will be, if not within the next couple days! it happens to me all the time. Ill lose a pound, the next day be a pound back up, but then be 2 lbs down the next time i weigh. it is…

I would try adding in weight training. Very good for you and for weight loss :) also, you could try doing interval training on the treadmill rather than running at one speed for 20 mins

I don't have that HRM but that does NOT seem right to me at all.. you should be burning at least 300 I would think.

Ontario, Canada! I haven't seen many Ontarians, or Canadians on here.. where is everyone?? :(
