Thank you! I appreciate your comment. I’m not giving up!

I bought 4 new bras today and all were 2 sizes smaller!!!

Ok, taking this in mind, I just did my first carb cycle this week. I have been on a SERIOUS plateau even with lifting heavy (never miss my gym time) and eating right. But! I lost this week. I DID NOT eat at a deficit. My 100% is my maintenance calories. My Protein and Fat never changed but carbs do. Carbs are 4 calories…

My husband and I both lift heavy and are LOVE Optimum Nutrtition Gold Standard Whey. It tastes great and has low metal content.

Lift heavy. Start out low but heavy is the key. 5 lb weights ain't gonna cut it. And a caloric deficit.

I am so impressed with everyone's progress!!!

First pic was at 260. Second and third pic are at 212. I am 5'4" and shooting for 170 for my first goal. I am about a size 8 when at 170. This time I do not care about size or the scale just being healthy. I am in perfect health now so it can only get better!

Have I got a bra for you! My sisters never budge! AND no uni boob either. Very flattering. I ordered my normal size and it was a little snug but it wears as time goes. It is only $38 right now. I know it seems like a lot but I am telling you....best BRA EVER! Enclosure is in the back so easy to get off.…

I was on Atkins for many years. I since have gone to a more healthy way of eating....for me. However, if Atkins is what you are wanting to do I fear you can't do it while recovering from a knee replacement. I had a knee replacement in Jan. of 2012 and the pain meds were horrible on my "elimination", as you call it. It…

I agree with akilahleemarie. Enough is enough. She has explained herself and she seems to be under the care of a doctor so leave her alone.

I eat steel cut oats. They are so hearty and fill me up. I bring 3 cups of water to a boil and then put on simmer and add 1 cup of oats and cover for 25 minutes. After the timer ends I turn off the eye and let them sit about 10 minutes and they are perfect! We add pecans, cranberries, raisin, honey and etc AFTER they are…

I think you are right jacksonpt! Thinking I will get another Polar!

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow Wee! Great job!

Don't use the Smith machine. The bar is so much better for many reasons but the most important to me is that it helps you strengthen your core and you have control. Get a friend to spot you and just use the 45# bar. My hubby just stood behind me my first time using the bar and it just gave me confidence that I could do it…

I'm sorry but anything under 1200 calories is ridiculous! Monitored by a doctor or not! You can lose weight and eat food! You can see it on MFP every day. You also see people trying to eat 1200 and under and they quit or have to start over again and again. People! It isn't worth it!

I sent you a friend request. I have lost 48 on MFP. I am faithful about my diary and prefer friends with open diaries so we can learn from one another. I am 5'4" and have 42 more pounds to go! Love MFP!

Breast Cancer! In all my research about how to help prevent cancer from occurring again I learned that hormones live in fat and my body produces an abundance of hormones which caused my cancer. So, my hubby and I changed our way of eating and began to lift weights. Now, I love lifting. I look forward to the gym. I am down…

finish your sessions with her but ignore her nutrition advice then get out of there. As one guy on here always says, "If you can't do this for the rest of your life then it is wrong!" Eating shouldn't be a diet, it is a lifestyle. Your body is in starvation mode. You MUST have fuel to workout and lift weights. Some…

Incredible! Thank you for posting!

Not good advice. This will DEFINTELY ruin your marriage!

add me please.

Hi, I'm 45 years old, female, wife and mom, musician, and breast cancer survivor. I am 44 lbs down with about 50 more to go. I log my food every day and lift heavy weights with my hubby 4 times a week. It is my passion. I desire friends who have open diaries so that I can get ideas and learn from all of you. Looking for a…

I choose butter and coconut oil. I never use margarine. Coconut oil melts just like butter and it so good for you!

It was just my decision to begin eating more organic because of cancer two years ago. It is why I started lifting and losing weight because my cancer was hormone fed. Hormones live in fat. My husband and I just did a lot of research on how to eat to avoid cancer. Right or wrong, causes cancer or not, we are better off now…

But one thing I have noticed since u have lost your weight is that you r unkind on the forums. Anyway, u do look great but we do disagree about how eating organic is healthy and that is ok.
