This. Lift now and help keep your muscle mass. Accidentally getting ripped is impossible. Bikini competitors spend hours in the gym and are meticulous about dieting - and they have nowhere near the muscle definition of the bodybuilders that you fear. Also - women MUST lift. It helps keep your bones strong.

Pamper and Goddess. I want to stab babies when I hear either.

EDIT: why am I even here? :noway: I love cauliflower but am ****ery-intolerant.

Huh? I thought about extolling the micronutrient virtues of potatoes then decided I'd rather let you think they're unhealthy. More for me. I'll eat ALL THE POTATOES. :flowerforyou:

Even one day full of popcorn, peanuts, cracker jacks, hot dogs and beer will not sabotage your weight loss. Eat what you want - in moderation or not - and go back to being thoughtful the next day. If you do go balls to the wall, you'll retain a bunch of water for a few days. That is NOT FAT. Drink some extra water and live…

It's not difficult to make if you buy the ladyfingers premade :bigsmile: It's a delight - partake!

Cute infographic or peer reviewed medical journal? http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/985705-paleo-diet-assoc-with-negchanges-to-bloodlipid-in-healthysub EDIT: I don't respond well to things waving in my face. Unless it's pie.

Excellent. I'm going to take up heavy drinking. It's about time by b1tch-*kitten* liver started pulling its weight!

I :heart: alcohol You can deal with this two ways: 1. Cut back on the wine, burn more calories to "earn it," or eat slightly less during the week to make up for weekend consumption. It all averages out. 2. Do what you're doing and enjoy the hell out of it - and expect progress to be a little slower. Choose the option that…

Thank you for sharing :flowerforyou:

Your science is not welcome here. Intolerances are common causes of fat gain and retention. Wheat is the devil and makes you have belly fat. And sugar, too. It's never really just about too many calories without sufficient activity to offset consumption. It's much more complicated and mystical than that.

Poop. That'll correct it.

I once took an abs class and I came out looking JUST LIKE THAT!! Be careful - it happens all the time!!!!!!! Search the forums for "belly fat" and you'll see all the people who are trying desperately to put fat back on their middles becuase they totally accidentally got super-buff without trying at all!! :flowerforyou:

WOW. That's enough to make me change teams! SO feminine and gorgeous.

THIS. This is all you need to know.

Edited to remove my comment based on eating disorder. Get to your therapist. You should never lose 15 pounds in two weeks just for the sake of vanity.

This is true. I've grown a whole 3" since starting yoga! My thighs are so much longer!

This sounds like the dietary equivalent of the AA term, "taking someone else's inventory." It's avoiding addressing your situation. Also it's really judgy and gross.

I am a vegan. Dietary cholesterol does not affect serum cholesterol.

Good stuff here... too bad Good Housekeeping will prevail as the subject matter expert here. *sigh*

The "fat burning zone" is a myth. Exercise burns calories - and the more intense you exercise the more calories you burn. Period. You don't say if you're eating back your exercise calories. If you don't, you may simply be creating too large a deficit, stalling your weight loss. Another possibility is that you're hungrier…
