try "peanut flour" but ive been looking for that in canada and cant find it either :(

I'm not sure. I do believe I fuel adequately I just think the binging is more a "reward" to myself as opposed to a biochemical need. However, I was listening to a Dr Rob podcast and he was saying most endurance cardio triggers carbohydrate cravings to replenish the glycogen you used during exercise, and I definitely crave…

Sweet potatoes.. My hands have an orange tinge to them I eat so many :smile:

Humiliating? oh I have so many.. my brother chasing me around a gold course hitting me with a stick yelling "run piggy run" it ended when I slipped down into the sand and landed on my butt so hard it knocked the wind out of me and I squashed a disc in my back. Two passing golfers drove me home in their cart and I couldn't…

Any survival tips for weekend binges? I do my long runs for marathon training and I always binge afterwards it sucks

@kge I really hope you're okay, even if you did binge its important to not give up! That's so amazing and inspiring that you are in medical school, which really speaks for your character to go through all that to help other people. I think when we convince ourselves that a binge is coming, we feel so weak and powerless…

Thanks for your input everyone! I'm marathon training right now so I have just been doing about 10 mins core conditioning at the end of my lifting days but its mostly to maintain muscle during my long endurance cardio sessions. However, I am seeing them cut in more since I took these pictures but I do think the muscles…

Thanks everyone :)

Be careful with IF though, it isn't for everybody. Thats how I discovered I'm hypoglycemic after a few too many nights waking up drenched in sweat and freezing cold. @diane Goodluck with your exercise! I also made a goal this week to exercise every day! I think posting it somewhere really gives us some accountability eh?…

First time food posting! Here goes.. Breakfast quiche bulk cooked for the week (Italian herbs, ham and pineapple) "Eggplant bruschetta" (baked eggplant, cream cheese, spinach, flavored canned tomatoes and balsamic vinegar) Spinach salad (spinach, chicken, strawberries, walnuts and an orange vinaigrette)

Oh, I wanted to add a little mental exercise I do.. If you don't have a power animal you should consider it. Mines a Lion. Popular choices are wolf, cheetah, eagle, horse but can be any animal you identify with as a powerful and majestic creature. When I'm sad I call on the Lion inside me to be strong. It sounds stupid I…

Hey ladies I hope you're all hanging in there! I like to come in here and drop some thoughts sometimes I have been feeling very sorry for myself the past week, I got a new job then 2 days before I started they called and denied me the job after I quit my old job. It completely messed up my self control, and I'm up probably…

So inspiring!!

I did post these pictures on a more active website and the general consensus was that its a pretty big jump from a stomach like this to a defined 6 pack.. but most of the replies there were from men so I'm interested in what the ladies here think

Chicken BBQ sauce Om nom nom Chicken Mrs dash OM nom nom Chicken Salsa Om nom nom well you did say simple :smile:

Skipping rope or do body weight. One thing I like to do if I want a sweat at home is squat jump pullups on my pullup bar (You don't need to be able to do a real pullup) Powerup from a squat into a jumping pullup, then slowly lower back down into a squat again. Its cardio strength and full body and all takes place in a door…

It didn't take long for me to "grow out" of using the elliptical at my gym and move onto more challenging cardio like running, stepmill or spin bike. Everyone is different though but I am glad I waited to purchase one because it would just be gathering dust if I did.

Workout clothes :D

YES

I met my boyfriend on an online game and we knew each other for a year before we met You do some pretty good bonding when you slay dragons together with your +6 sword, just sayin'

Schedule a night time snack you have after dinner and before bed. That way after dinner you have your snack to look forward to instead of eating dinner and thinking about food for 4 hours

That eating half a plate of baked potatoes and skipping the roast was healthy because potato is a vegetable

@ zomb The kind of guy who wears skinny jeans @ glutes muscles and tattoos Edit: LOL im a muscles and tattoos kind of girl :)

I love it I find it very motivating and inspiring but I think thats mostly because I love Jillian so much

Waaah my BMI went up!

When I was big I got a sports bra from walmart and wore it under baggy shirts and comfy pants. I think the most important thing is that they aren't flapping around smacking you in the face! I have a bigger friend who is 250lbs and she wears the built in bra tops from walmart too but she doesn't have big boobs.

I used to intermittent fast with no food after 6pm and wonder why I would wake up at 2am drenched in sweat and freezing cold. Yeah.. make sure you don't have blood sugar sensitivity if you're going to do that

Yeah its fine, everything you said is true.. He doesn't have a weight problem, I didn't mean we eat separately all the time just when he can't modify what I'm cooking he'll have something easy and pre packaged. We do very rarely eat the same thing though. for example if we have taco mince I'll have a salad and he will make…

This ones kinda ****ed up.. When I was like 13 my brother told me I was so fat and ugly nobody would even want to rape me. Yeah.

Be warned. most of these apps make you pay for the "pro" version once you reach a certain point.
