and wow people on here talk like drill sargeants.....you would think pals would be encouraging and uplifting

i used to be the same way...C2K works...and i did it on the treadmil...losing fat and gaining muscle will help your endurance to run....just keep going!!!

the more water you drink the more your body will get used to the amount...i get up about 3 times a night if i drink near a gallon...but id rather have the weight loss and the health than the convenience and extra 5 min of sleep

calorie deficit and more protein to gain muscle..you will tighten up and lose inches. i suggest cardio then strength train 3 to 4 times a week. dont be afraid to lift! you will get results fast

i bought a 64 oz plastic bottle with a straw and its bright red from CVS. i feel like drinking out of the straw makes it easier to drink more and the bright color catches my eye so i remember to drink it.....if i drink 2 ive had my gallon for the day! when i dont drink water i wake up bloated and see less definition..its…

love

fruit...sugar....carbs... when pros or competitors are in shredding phase they cut out fruit it also bloats you protein...green veggies....sweet potatos maybe thats how youll see results the fastest.........is it a lifestyle?maybe not id prefer to montior my sugar intake above my sodium intake....and drink a gallon of…

im 23 years old, 5'7, And 150 pounds Latest measurements were 34-27.5-39.5 The heaviest ive ever been is around 168 size 12 I want to get down to 145-143 and I think I will see more definition in my abs (barely any now) I cant seem to get under 146…I could have a stricter diet but im still eating healthier now than I have…

popcorn sounds like an awful idea...but thats because im terrified of carbs...lol

my boyfriend will sit and eat my brand new jar by the spoonful while im sleeping and he still has abs i hate him for that

bump.cant wait

i dont see why you would need to buy a book to tell you to drink smoothies and eat salads for 3 weeks?seems like a waste of money

bump - ill check it out when im not on my work computer haha

I suggest reading the book "LOOK GREAT FEEL GREAT" by Joyce Meyer the book is so uplifting and motivational and provides a different out look on food and makes our struggle seem less hard!its also a very quick and easy read think about how far youve come!!…

i make sure to go grocery shopping on a full stomach...and have meal plans in mind so that i buy healthy groceries i dont have ANY bad food in my house/fridge - espeically no snacks (maybe granola bars or yogurt) if i want to eat..i have to cook! if i want to binge....i will have to go ALL the way to a fast food place..and…

seems like you focus a lot on cardio - i do spin all the time as well and did not see REAL results untill i hit the weights harder cardio is out the window after a couple of days of bad eating - muscles seem to hang in there! plus they help burn that fat even when youre not working!

the Couch to 5K app helped me go from not being able to run 30 seconds without a struggle to running atleast 20 mins on 6 mph as just a warm up....3 days a week.and it increases your time every day.....after you master that you go back and increase your speed....it works if you are consistent...but hey what doesnt lol

-___- guess i need to do my research....i was hoping that was wrong..ill look into it..thanks again

didnt know that...thanks

thanks for the advice! good way to look at it:smile:

or maybe she is addressing a real issue that discourages women from attending the gym or moving out of their comfort zone from the treadmil to the weights section with "the boys"

^^this!...i started going to a gym where the population is older or gay! i get a much better work out

i deal with the same thing..i cant go to the gym alone because it looks like an invitation for a convo..when i work out with a girl friend then they are more intimidated to strike up a convo...most of the time guys are just looking for an excuse to talk to a cute chick who actually likes going to the gym like they…
