You can have some of mine. I have a Jlo butt.

10-12 depending on brand/style

k Thanks!

Amazing job guys! I don't find this thread offensive. I just wish it was a little more inclusive considering not all Blacks on MFP are African American.

Which book is more of a quick/easy read? Starting strength or Stronglifts? I want to do NROL4W when I have more time.

Saving. Great resources!

I'm 5'5", and I've always had a natural athletic build. My GW is approximately 160 lbs. I'm an hourglass, and most of my weight is in my thick thighs, hips, and melon booty. I swear most of my weight is in my melon booty lol. I start to look sick if I go too low. I can relate to those who have trouble finding pants that…

Looks like a good read. Bumping to read later.

You guys look hot! Did anyone follow NROLFW without a personal trainer?

Amazing story. Congrats.

Saving to read the helpful info later.

Bumping for later. I love tuna :)

Yes, it's noticeable; you look like a different person. I do agree that it's possible that some are jealous and others may not want to offend. Guilt about their unhealthy lifestyles may have also slapped them hard in the face. It really comes down to the individual. I'm not sure if this was asked as a possibility. Are they…

I was sick of always feeling exhausted :yawn: . I also was suffering from severe migraines and stomach ulcers from stress frequently. I saw pictures of myself at my cousin's wedding in 2012, and I couldn't believe how big I looked. The scale showing 199 lbs was also a warning that if I don't do something now, the scale…

Vancouver : )

When I stepped on the scale and saw 199.

For a second, I thought Craig David was your profile pic. I had no idea Craig David looked like this now. Can someone tell me if it's normal for the upper abs to look that way?

It also reminded me of the cauliflower thin crust pizza recipe. I may also try cauliflower fritters. Has anyone tried cauliflower smoothies lol? It doesn't sound inviting but I'm curious.

MichaelKoryFitness on YT has some quick and easy recipes.

I'm also incorporating lifting. Last week I felt like a failure because I was measuring my success by a scale. The fact that I'm slowly seeing more definition in the mirror wasn't good enough. I seem to gain muscle quickly, but I still wasn't satisfied. The fact that I'm feeling stronger physically and mentally was still…

I do late workouts at times. I find it better than doing nothing. I have researched this topic before and it seems that there's no concrete evidence showing mornings are more effective than nights. Some people do feel too stimulated to fall asleep after late workouts. This isn't the case for everyone. You could give it a…

Check out HASfit on YT.

This may sound corny but I have found that surrounding myself with positive people, music, messages, convos etc as much as possible helps. I find it easier for the negative comments not to affect me as much.

Yes, but I'm still looking for my groom : ). Btw, congrats!

I like this quote. I always feel this way when I look back at time wasted.

Excuses are for people who don't want it bad enough.

I do different varieties that are similar to the ones already posted. I'll just add that sometimes I add oatmeal so I feel fuller.

When I lost 50 lbs in my 20s, I went down a cup size : ( . I'm waiting to see what will happen in my 30s. I don't want to lose my sisters.

I'm up for the challenge. I just added myself to the spreadsheet. Btw, I'm #203 : )

Jerome Bettis and Warren Sapps. I like big teddy bears.
