Too many people in the gym; I already ate like crap today, so might as well not work out; I'm tired; I will work out at "this time" (when that time comes around, "30 more mins"....I'm full of excuses!

Good read!

EXACTLY!

I agree, I do have to say though that it's difficult to avoid (ice cream wise/frozen yogurt..etc). Majority of times that I have cow's milk it's organic (both for ethical and health reasons) Edit: Almond milk is what I regularly use too

DUFF??? Who says that??? The guy is obviously very immature(he has his own problems)...you shouldn't give 2 sh!ts about what him or anyone else says. The only thing that you should care about is what YOU think and any constructive criticism/advice from a trusted source that will help you for the better(Edit: and will help…

Definitely make sure you do the exercises your physical therapist tells you to do at home. I had knee surgery and didn't do the exercises so my healing time took a lot longer and I never got full extension or flexion back. It's so important to do what they say. I had ACL and meniscus reconstruction...your tricep injury may…

Count me IN! :smile:

Whichever you prefer :smile: •1-5 Reps Per Set = Mostly Strength •5-8 Reps Per Set = Strength AND Muscle Equally •8-10 Reps Per Set = Muscle With Some Strength •10-12 Reps Per Set = Muscle With Some Endurance •12-15 Reps Per Set = Endurance With Some Muscle •15-20 Reps Per Set = Mostly Endurance Just make sure to challenge…

Almost all of your foods are white starches. Add more color to your diet-- fruits, vegetables, etc. This will add fiber to your diet and most importantly, nutrients! Try switching from soy milk to almond milk; soy milk can cause a lot of bloating. Also, don't forget to lift weights. Add some variety to life :smile: (I say…

You seriously look great!! Good for you, you should be so proud of your accomplishments so far. :drinker:

The doc asked me what color my phlegm was (yellow). I guess bacterial infections are yellow/green colored mucous and viral infections are clear/cloudy.

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I don't know why she gave them to me if she thought it was a cold--hopefully it's nothing more. I will try a lot of the suggestions given

I just binged(work related stress)!! Reading this motivates me to really not give in to it next time. Thank you for posting this!! You did great by beating the binge, I know it can be hard sometimes.

I'm assuming you're in the AF b/c you're really worried about your waist size and not your weight...stay away from sodium...have very little of it and don't eat anything that will cause you to bloat (grain, dairy, beans, legumes, etc). Yeah it will suck, but your stomach will be more flat. I think I read you mentioned…

soy, dairy, beans, peanuts, wheat, I may cut out eggs--all of these are reasons that I may become bloated and/or gassy. Wheat isn't TOO bad. edited: very greasy foods, too.

WOW! :drinker:

I notice a difference too. It's not too big of a difference, but there's definitely a difference. Like what she said above, you can tell around the middle. (Good job so far!)

I'll try this out!

...I'm the same way. Make sure what you're doing is fun...set achievement goals..like you want to run a 5k by ____(date). No junk food for _____weeks and then have a week where your eating relatively good, but enjoying more junk. Variety is the spice of life! So far, that is what has helped me not yo-yo. Also, when you…

It's good to give your digestive system a break by juicing...I've only done a 2 day one and it worked out pretty well!

TRUE!

what the hell kinda topic....????? BUUUUT, to answer the question...if you're attractive, you're attractive, regardless of what ethnicity you are! Quality of character is more important to me than appearance.

Any chest/shoulder machines will help... Bench press, bench press machine, and if you're trying to do the tricep push ups, then of course if you work out your triceps, it will help. Also, when you do push ups it requires core stabilization, so the plank will also help. You don't necessarily have to do push ups to be able…

Defnitely looks good!

Try something different for breakfast (eggs and toast, or another breakfast combo). Also, you don't have to have breakfast food for breakfast =)

water, coconut water, hot tea every now-and-then

Tabata

Stop it before it becomes a habit. A few days will hinder weight loss for the week, but as long as you start fresh next week/today, you'll be OK! You've done really well with your weight loss, so you know what you need to do!! :smile:

I only have goat milk (yogurt) on occasion and never drink straight cow milk...of course I can't help it if I have frozen yogurt/ice cream. In my opinion (and logically), cow milk is for baby cows-- not humans.

Thank you for the feedback. If it happens more often, then I'll see a doc.
