Actually I am with you! Especially in the evenings when I get the snack attack cravings, if I go for a run, it seems to make me NOT want to eat. If I run in the morning however, I am starving about an hour after my run!

http://www.thekitchn.com/magic-one-ingredient-ice-cream-5-ways-peanut-butter-nutella-and-more-171618 I make these!! Totally satisfy my cravings!

Bump

On the flipside, I don't gain weight easily either. When I was 110lbs I could eat anything and not gain a pound. My body seems to want to stick at that weight wether I eat 1000 calories or 3000 calories....

5,1 starting weight 110 lbs, current just under 109, goal 104.. Body fat not known. My clothes do fit better. Would like the leg and butt area to slim down a bit more for bikini season! Target calorie goal is around 1500 including exercise calories which I usually eat most back. Thank you!

Thank you Amy! I do boot camp /weights 3x a week so I think I'll drop the running just on those days. 3x weights 3x running. Does that sound good?

I was just taking about this today!! I was able to give up burgers and mayonnaise which I used to love. But sweet stuff is a whole other story!! I have chocolate or a cupcake or ice cream every day. So hard to give up!!

lol!!! I will have to practice my ab flexing photo pose, glad to see it's not just me!!! :)

The last week I haven't been logging properly last week of kids in school so I had to log whatever I remembered in the evenings. If you look a couple of weeks back there should be quite few days in the red lol!

That's interesting!! I am only 5,2 and 104 lbs, so probably around 1700 would be my ideal.

Good point. I have noticed that if I lose too much weight then I lose the boobs too. I guess I just have to find a happy medium!!

Thank you!! You are right I think I just need to be patient :)

This is how I feel!!! I feel I am already doing these things although the eating could use some improvement as in maybe cutting out my treat of the day!

I am eating between 1400-1700 at the moment so not sure I could go much lower. I will try upping the protein some more, thanks!

Thanks you look great too!! Add me if you like, always like having friends on MFP with kids I find it's so much harder to resist to all the yummy things in the house lol!

Already lifting every other day, I do a mix of NROL , Stronglifts and bootcamp. I think my eating might be the missing link, I eat well and mostly healthy but not completely clean. Wow 17.5% that's a great BF percentage!!! I hope I can get to that one day!!

Thank you!! I am flexing though, not sure I can do it all day on the beach lol!!!

Thanks, how do I do that though?! Just keep lifting?

Awesome thank you!!

Yep! I have something of that sort every day. Cupcake or ice cream or a piece of cake. This is what makes is do-able for me!!

Great thread!! I love their ready made grilled chicken, so easy to have for lunch! Also their apricot salsa sauce also goes very well cooked with chicken, and it's only 25 calories per tbsp. Also love their rice pudding and tapioca pudding. Oh and one last thing they sell weetabix cereal there (British cereal) for 2.99$!!…

As a greek I grew up on full fat fage Total! With a little honey drizzled on top, heaven. It comes in a blue container http://www.fageusa.com/products/fage-total-classic/

Kept the butt but lost the boobs!

Total greek yogurt fat 0% + one pink lady apple with cinammon and a small handful of granola sprinkled is very filling and under 150 calories! It's delicious too. I actually struggle to finish it sometimes!

Mine are tall and my brother is 6,4! I am 5.2 at a stretch. I take after my grandma!

Me! I try and eat well (lean meat and fruit every day) but also have things like ice cream bagels, cakes and cookies daily!

Thank you! I was enjoying it but now not so much. I love lifting so much more I can't even fathom jumping on a treadmill for an hour anymore!

Yeah but I don't need to lose any more weight nor am I running a marathon. So just wondering for general health purposes if 3-4 times a week strength training was enough.

The HRM sounds about right. The machines wayyyy over estimate! I barely even burn more than 400 per hour and that's with a high intensity work out,

Fage 0% greek yogurt + Pink lady apple + cinnamon +granola = heaven! Very filling and satisfies my sweet tooth.
