Nice!!! :drinker:

Feel free to add me :):flowerforyou:

I'm the AVP of marketing for a financial institution. Sit on my *kitten* all day - so no, not conducive at all to my lifestyle. Wamp, wamp.

Bucket of protein.

Lmao!

I'm a regular logger and pretty active. Feel free to add me! :)

Add me too. Randomocity is great (yeah that's not a word, but it has a nice ring to it) :)

Hello! I'm in Houston as well and I also love to mountain bike - my husband and I go out riding every weekend. I'm also a weightlifter and LOVE it. I have about 40 more pounds to lose but I'm liking the inches lost versus the number on the scale :) Good luck to everyone on this adventure and add me if you'd like! :)

Compound lifts 5x per week is excessive. Isolated lifting can be done 5-6 days if you're working different muscles, different days.

QFT Also, no muscle doesn't weigh more than fat. It weighs the same. A pound is a pound. However, muscle takes up less space than fat. I've also never seen a program where you do cardio in between sets of lifting. If you're new to lifting, I'd recommend a compound lifting routine 3-4 times a week with a 20-30 minute sesh…

Good one!

Good stuff. Any recommendations on dry shampoos? Baby powder: never heard of that one but makes sense! Will try too.

Hope everyone stays safe. And I also hope these storms settle down before we leave for England...my husband hasn't seen his family in over a year. Wanting to go back to visit!

That's fantastic! You look great!

So awesome, Sara. You did amazing and thank you for taking the time to write this all up (and loved the vids!!!). Definitely one of my inspirations to keep doing lifts and I really do think my goal now is to compete. Loves seeing you ladies tell your competition stories - LOVE IT!!!!!! Congrats again!

Why shouldn't we brag? The people in my life who have children brag about how life changing it is and how much I'm missing out. Um, no. People will brag about their children. People will brag about their lives without children. Who cares?

I totally just pictured that happening :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Umm...so you're saying that everyone should breed uncontrollably, even if they don't want to, just because they themselves are alive? :noway:

Have never regretted not having children. I'm still young though, at 31 and whilst everyone around me asks when I'll be having kids, I (sometimes politely, sometimes not) tell them I won't be having any so they shouldn't get their hopes up. My husband and I enjoy what we have. I'm already planning on retirement for crying…

QFT - me too. Loved being single - wasn't looking, happy. Met my husband and well, it's a new level of happiness :D

Wow - disgusting indeed!

60-80 minutes 3 times per week. I do compound lifts rather than isolated. Seems to work better for me at the moment.

Um no. Nothing wrong with using up the calories allotted to you. Binge eating is when you can't control yourself, go OVER your maintenance level - all the time - therefore getting fatter in the process. :flowerforyou:

I've done it and I was heavier than I am now. Actually wasn't looking to do this but I was just helping out a photographer friend of mine who needed models (and I use that term loosely lol). They came out great and I gave them to my husband as a gift. I want to do another photo shoot when I feel more confident about the…
