I think i WANT one of these. JK I find that from a binge eating session I will gain sometimes up to 5 lbs overnight, but after one day of eating healthy and exercising again it goes back down. As long as you dont do it everyday, it will be fine.

6 stitches on my eyebrow. a crockpot lid fell off the top cabinet and hit me in the face. ouch!!! :sad:

I started stage 4 this week. I def find stage 2 and 4 harder than 1 and 3. Those 120 sec planks kill me! I had to drop to my knees for a few seconds AND get off the ball. Lets see how I do on the 120 sec cobras. Looking forward to workout B today!

OR just try your best and forget the rest! sorry i couldnt resist.

I agree with everyone but it depends on what your life style was before you starting with MFP. If walked everyday to and from work before you started trying to lose weight then you would need to include that as part of your daily activity and work out more. OR If this is new for your and you started adding in the walking…

Thanks Chusheto1!!

My friend and I just split a 4lb container of Max Muscle Maxpro Whey vanilla protein powder for $53 (after tax). I have tried "generics" sold at Walmart but wanted something "real" whatever that means, i dont even know lol. Im looking for something thats cheap, low cal, low sugar and carb and high protein. hehe where can i…

My boyfriend seems to think I go have sex with other dudes on my lunch break when Im really at the gym. He'll say that I have an "odor" later on that night. :embarassed: Im like its just sweat from exercising! Ive tried getting him to go with me, but he wont.

Ive been doing NROLFW and I am currently on stage 3. I love it because it DOES take me out of my comfort zone!

not a guy, but I would love a full 24hrs ALONE! and come home to all the cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping DONE!!!! Im taking my momma to brunch then we are getting pedis after.

is that women black (as in the ethncity) or black from tanning????

Is is the intention, but b/c of lack of time Im splitting workout A into two sessions and workout B into two sessions but I am wondering if Im missing out on the purpose by doing that.

Thats whay Im gonna have to do. Ill do the BWM when I get home that night after my son goes to bed and do intervals on the days I dont lift and hopefully that gives me enough time. Im just wondering if Ill get the same benefit by splitting up the workouts? Like last night it took 58 minutes to do workout A from start to…

^^^^^ this!

I start stage 3 today. Im excited and nervous, nervous most about the BWM! How long did it take you all from start to finish to do workout A and B (assuming you did it all in one session)? Im going to try to squeeze these in on my lunch break or after work while my son is in the gyms daycare. Man time is sooo precious but…

Im starting phase 3 today on NROLFW and yes the moves are complicated but after a couple of times, you get them. It really has forced me to push my limits with weight lifting and not be afraid of the squat rack where all the meat heads tend ot have their meat head meetings. Also, it doesnt make me fear calories as I once…

What can I say, I am a health NUT!!!!

Im going to buy a krispy cream donut and spread nutella all over it! mmmmmmmm

I completely agree with everything this woman wrote!! I am ALWAYS over my calorie intake that MFP sets for me and its set to maintain my current weight. There is no way I can be happy eating 1690 calories a day and have enough energy to weight lift. Im usally close to 2000 if not more on the days I lift and when I eat back…

I like veggies wrapped in sliced turkey! mmmmm

Mon- weight lifting Tues-interval trianing (either spinning or running) Wed-weight lifting Thurs - either body combat or interval training Fri-weight lifting Im following hte New Rules of Lifting for Women program so I do the exercises from the book on my lift days.

"F8ck you, F&ck you, Your cool, *kitten* you!"

I have been told that I eat like a man and can easily out eat my bf. but I also workout hard 5 days a week and he doesnt.

Yes Ive been using gloves and tried the mixed grip last time. It was ok, but I found that my hands still tired quickly, way before my legs did. But didnt get a blister that time at least. yuck!

I started stage 2 this week and will complete my second workout A. I find the squat p/p the most awkward and the Bulgarian split squat to be the most challenging. Im going to buy some weight lifting straps this weekend because I know I can dead lift more (completed last set at 95lbs) but the grip is a major issue (not to…

Nope not crazy at all. I relate to you and the chick that wrote those articles. I really will take them into conisderation and am tempted to try the 24 hour fast to "get in tune with my hunger signals. Thanks for sharing!

I want to post my after pics (because I dont really have any "before" pics). I had a breast reduction almost 13 years ago (I was only 17 :frown: ) gained 50lbs in college, had my son almost 3 years ago with a c-section, then lost another 40lbs so my body has been through the ringer. My boobs are saggy deflated balloons and…
