Yes, but she stressed she wasn't yelling.. but I'm sure that now she knows how to use italics, she will be using them. :)

Harleigh, because of the comments you just got on here, is the reason I stay away from here. I don't think ANYONE read the part where you stressed that when you all cap it, you're not yelling. I've come to learn many of the people on here either can't read, or comprehend... You are doing a great job motivating, working…

Awesome job!!! You're making me so jealous! Lol! Running used to be my life. I really need to get back into it, I'd like to do another marathon in late spring/early summer. :)

We have next week right??? :wink: Keep up the hard work!

Nice job!! Good luck on your 5k!! Where are you at? It's very windy and chilly here in MI..

I know I didn't eat the fruits and veggies earlier in the day, normally I have it with lunch, and a lot with dinner. I planned on having pineapple yesterday with salmon, but I really was full.

I'm 5' 2", 156 body fat I'm unsure of. my scale says 30.1% muscle is 37.8%. I have definite definition in my deltoids, biceps, quads, and calves. I try to work out 5 days a week 45 min to an hour. I incorporate cardio and strength.

I switch it on my on busy days and off days. Though it never changes the calories...Believe me, I've played with it.

Thanks. I don't know why I just can't get it. Lol. I do strength with every cardio workout I do. And when I work, I use LOTS of strength (massage therapist) I mostly do deep tissue. I have is a body analysis scale which shows water, BF, muscle, bone, etc. I don't normally pay much attention to the numbers from the "perks"…

Thanks, I just readjusted my carbs...though I never go over goal with those. I normally have only "good" carbs, and like I said I up my protein, so I'm most always above goal with that daily.

Glad to know I'm not alone with this! (or maybe not glad.....that sounded bad) Lol. Good luck to you too!

Thanks, I looked through the thread, recalculated my bmr and all that jazz. I do eat more when I exercise...sometimes I don't eat all the exercise calories. Though what I don't understand is how is eating more calories going to help me lose weight?

:smile: I ONLY say that because when some people hear the number 1200 they go bonkers. I have calculated my tdee on many different sites, all different numbers but they all hover around 1300.

Thank you. I do take measurements, but only every two weeks, along with pictures. In July, I had a hysterectomy so no more TOM :happy: .... Though I don't know if I would still retain water...hmm...

I understand it's only been one week, and it's not a cause for concern...I meant to say that in my previous post. But normally by this time I'm down 1/2-1 lb. My exercise has changed slightly, but for the less because of an injury. I did copy and paste what I ate today. My days are normally very similar everyday. I'm also…

Sweet!!! Nice job! You can do it!!!

You're doing so awesome!! You can hit that in no time!!!

Awesome progress!!!!!!! looking good!

Great job!!!! I soooo didn't mean to leave you for a week! I was so busy, hardly had time to workout. I will be here from now on. :)

500 calories a day for weeks or months is starving yourself. 1200 calories a day for weeks or months is just fine and healthy. I get all the nutrients I need on those calories. I'm full with each meal, full of energy, and happy.

1. As long as my kids go trick or treating, I won't deprive myself. 2. If I have the extra calories, for sure I'll have some. Now if it's a Take 5.....I will do an extra workout or 2 to have those!! Yum!:happy:

23 pounds! If I keep up with my 2 lbs a week, I will be down 26!

Nice job! On average, how many pounds a week do you lose?

Thank you all so much!!! :happy: In 5 days it will be 2 months for 20 lbs. I'm on a 1200 calorie diet, exercise almost daily, and water has been my new best friend. Maybe the water is making me look younger? Who knows....but what a wonderful thing to hear just before my b-day! (I will just have to lie about my age now.)…

Thank you all so much. The first pic is not the real me. I hated being like that. But because of that first pic, I take a photo of myself every 2 weeks wearing the same dress....I won't post those. Lol Those ones are either right before or after a workout, no make up, hair is crazy....don't need them to look any worse!

It may be a bit tough. My goal is 23 more by Christmas. We can do it!!!

Great job ladies!! I've been thinking of how sexy we'll look in our New Years outfits! :wink:

Good for you! You can do it no problem! The 17 I lost, I started 8/5/13. :smile:

I've ran many races including 2 half marathons and 1 full one. Then of course there is all the running in between. I used to average about 50 miles a week. The only thing it did to my legs was make them sexy. :love:
