Chug a glass of water first.

I agree with this. I also want to add, how you are measuring your weight loss? If you're only going by a scale, I would really recommend you start taking measurements. Even if you aren't losing weight, you could be losing inches.

I'm new to NROL4W and this board, but I just wanted to share that today was the first day I went to the gym alone, without a friend as a buffer. I was super nervous because it was only my third workout and I'm new to lifting free weights in general and I was scared how I would look to other people, but I just stuck my…

I'm sorry, what???

I actually wanted to post this today as well. I did my Workout B-1 on Sunday and today I still have really bad DOMS in my upper and lower back. I'm supposed to move on to Workout A-2 today, but I'm not sure if I should just wait another day. I think as of right now I'm going to wait an extra day, just to give my muscles…

I just started! Just finished my second day.

I work at a restaurant and my estimations of the salads we have are all around 500-700 calories. Definitely go for oil and vinegar as most restaurants will give you way more than one serving of the dressing. I actually looked at the label our lowest calorie dressing and found it was 110 calories per ounce, with a side of…

Thank you! I've just been staying within my calorie goal and doing P90x mostly for exercise.

Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches Blend 1 cup Almond milk + 1 tbs peanut butter + 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder + ice. ( I personally think it tastes like a chocolate milkshake) 90 cal Fiber One brownies. Put in microwave, top with 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream A couple squares of dark chocolate topped with a tbs of…

I'm pretty much in the same situation as you. I set my activity level to lightly active. Some nights I'm sitting on my butt for 8 hours and some nights I'm practically running for 8 hours, so I think it all balances out in the end. ETA: So, I don't log it as exercise.

I drink 1-2 times a week. I just make sure I do it on a day I burn a lot of calories, I eat a lower calorie dinner (usually just a protein and lots of veggies), cut out my nighttime snack and drink vodka waters. I'm 90% of the time under within my calorie goal and it hasn't stopped my weight loss yet.

I eat in the morning when I get hungry, I eat lunch at a specific time whether or not I'm hungry only because I leave for work right after and I know I won't get to eat for another 5 hours minimum, so that's more of a prevention from becoming too hungry during my shift. Then, I eat dinner when I get hungry again, which is…

Sarcasm, peanut butter, and alcohol. Did we just become best friends?

I do better in summer. It's so much easier to eat better and exercise when you're wearing bikinis and shorts all day.

Check out Ouroboros. Its meaning is about re-creating/ something ending leading to a new beginning.

^ This x100. Fitspo blogs are so motivational.

I would just drink LITs. I miss them so much.

"Have you lost more weight? Your boobs are smaller." Thank you.

Boobs.

Gotta go with survivor then.

Don't keep unhealthy snacks in your dorm room. Don't gorge in the dining hall. Walk everywhere.

I tweaked my back yesterday and did yoga today. My back felt fine in every position except downward dog. For me, I think the position of downward dog just happened to aggravate the part of my back I tweaked. Do you notice it hurting before yoga? Maybe it's something like that for you too. I'd take a couple rest days and…
