Bring on the newbies!!!!! I could use another workout partner!!
-
ME!!!!! We had a big hoopla yesterday, so I'm heading to the gym this morning. More family dinners at 1:00. Whoop!
-
Bring on more muscle!!! It is super hard to get there and maintain, but the more the merrier!! :))
-
I CAN TOTALLY HELP!!!!! I train with mostly body weight and can get a kick butt workout in in 1/2 hour or less. :)))
-
Woo!!!!! Same!!!!! Are you vegetarian??? I am. Feel free to add....and we can compare proteins. I make not of mine every day. :))
-
Story of my life!!! I have been a vegetarian for three years now. I supplement my protein and eat a lot of nuts. HOWEVER, I am really trying to whittle away at those last few percentages of BF and build more muscle, so I am trying to cut back on the nuts (fat) and add more protein without adding more carbs. I am lucky to…

Captain Jack Sparrow!!!!!! Savvy?

VERY NICE!!! WAY TO GO!!!! You are in the right place!!!! Fee free to add!

Also, yes, you can be social here, and I am with my pals, but it is primarily for fitness and weight loss/maintenance. Socialites and friends of friends of friends of friends and strangers....FB is for that.
-
IMHO, it is not snobbish. I have stipulations on mine, but I break them. I want to know why you want to befriend me. Most of my pals are like minded and that helps keep me on track. If I am pals with people with ED, I don't think I can help them...that is a pfofesh thing and that is not going to help me. I also like clean…

High reps and low weight is where it's at. That's what I do mostly and that's when I started seeing much transformation. I train my clients this way now most of the time as well. IT WORKS! Trust the process!
-
ME, too!!!!!
-
I am serious about exercise, nutrition, people not starving themselves, and logging your food and exercise. You can see my profile and decide. :)
-
I ma pretty much at my goal weight and size...just trying to fine tune for more muscle and less BF. I have a few injuries right now that are slowing down my workouts, but I am hoping to be back at it next week. :)
-
Pero sweet mini peppers!!! So yummo! And I dip them in all varieties of hummus!
-
Use a HRM and add the calories burned into the cardio section.

Lucky Strike - Maroon 5 Scream - Usher (Okay, in my fantasy world, but these songs are hott)
-
WHAT A GREAT STORY!!!! You turned what could have been a caloric disaster into a V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!! YAY TEAM!!!
-
I have the Polar FT4. Not a lot of bells and whistle, but it tracks HR, your zone, and calories burned. It will keep a log for you.
-
HILARIOUS!!!! I JUST ate regular PB2 with raw oats. It's one of my favorite snacks! I usually add a bit of cinnamon to is as well. :)
-
Machines have their place, but I mostly use free weights and body weight. As already stated, free weights cause you to use more muscles than the machines isolate. Do as many compound exercises as you can rather than isolation. :)
-
You're in the right place! Just remember: consistency over time.....or slow and steady wins the race. Feel free to add me if you like. :)) GOOD LUCK!!! You can do it!
-
Don't sweat the few pounds....these things happen. However, skipping meals is the kiss of death. You also want to go for QUALITY as well as QUANTITY. Bacon has a lot of sodium and can make you retain fluids.
-
EVERY DAY!! First thing in the morning. After I pee. Naked. LOL!
-
5'5", 134, 4/4/S Fours are loose, twos are around the corner. Medium frame.
-
Um....YES!!! I practice what I preach! I am close to where I want to be and continue to kick butt! I watch ever morsel that goes in my mouth and I exercise DAILY! I encourage my pals to do the same if they want results. I also think having an open diary is the way to keep it real. People who don't are only lying to…
-
DITTO ON ALL! Especially on not eating back your exercise calories. YES YOU SHOULD!! The bottom line is Calories in vs. calories out, whether this is caloric restriction or calories burned. Eat more to weigh less. Sounds crazy, but true. You should get to the point where you are HUNGRY and want to eat about every three…
-
A couple of other things to consider...you are getting more fit, so you will burn less calories as you go along. Try not to be married to the scale. Over a six month period, I lost ZERO pounds, but two sizes. :) So, measure your inches as well. Glad you went Polar. I love mine!! Good luck!
-
Awesome!!!!! We are the same height. What is your age? You can add me if you like. I already reached my first goal, then changed it up. It is tough when you get close, but it can be done!!! WAY TO GO!!!! Keep up the good work!
