For squats I have been doing 3 sets of 15 40lbs, 30lbs, 20lbs, and 10 lbs the same thing for my lunges, deadlifts, etc I am really bulkey in the thighs now and I HATE IT! I am thinking i am going to cut out the heavy weights on my lower half and keep running and doing body resistance with my lunges and squats, maybe more…

I have no idea how anyone sticks to 1200 calories. I eat 6 times a day and there is no way I can spread out 1200 calories to get me through my day that starts at 5:30am and ends at 10:30/11pm. I find it hard to stay under 2000 even with my exercise calories. I feel like I burn through everything I eat. The healthier I eat…

Casie- with heavy weight or more body resistance?

way off. My Garmin FR60 is amazing!

trying to keep this post going....input needed :)

My advice would be to eat every 2-3 hours that your awake, Balance each meal with carbs and protein and at atleast 2 meals add healthy fats and vegetables. Healthy fats are olive oil, canola oil, nuts, etc. I would also suggest upping your protein to. 5- 1 gram per body weight and lowering your processed carbs like your…

I love spaghetti! thanks for the ideas! I really like the ideas for lazy bakes..

this is the story of my life....I thought i was pretty much alone... I feel out of control when it starts, and once it starts I feel like a failure and keep eating more and more just because I am so mad at myself. It's almost like revenge on myself for depriving myself of anything and everything everyday and trying to eat…

700 is usually the max I have for supper. I have seen your journal and I dont know how you only eat a protein bar for supper....Your lucky! That would be a snack after supper for me. haha

I just went from 8 a day to 2....no weightloss :(

During the day I wake up at 5:30 am, work out for an hour, eat my oatmeal and protein shake, then few hours later I eat a 100-200 cal snack(healthy) then I eat lunch(healthy) another snack 2 hours later, then I get off work at 5 and immidiately start supper for my family who are also starving and I feel that even though I…

I definitely have a touch of OCD, like when i lift i have to do a certain amount of reps or sets or the workouts not complete or burn so and so calories for it to be a good workout, now its this whole number thing with the calories, carbs protein, sodium...awwwww! I know I just need to chill, but it's hard when it is…

I think I am the 1st to say this one....cookie dough! I end up making it 2x a month and eat half the dough before even making any cookies....I have started using part applesauce in my dough instead of all crisco just to cut the calories! I tend to eat supper and snack all night on peanuts,cereal, crackers, anything with a…

I am still trying to figure it out too....

http://www.naturalphysiques.com/64/zig-zag-calculator-for-fat-loss-andor-muscle-gain http://www.mylifestylediet.com/calorie-calculator.php i found this site that has a calculator, I prefer to keep it simple and use more even numbers though.

Do I add on my exercise calories to get a new total or just stick to this ratio regardless of exercise?

http://www.rippednaturally.com/increase_hormones_through_proper_diet-lose_fat.html I like this site. On the left side of the page there are different tabs to read, 1 is on zig zagging. Check it out. It has helped me.

I agree, lift heavy and switch it up, to confuse your muscles, dont worry you wont get bulky unless of course you are taking a type of hormone., Increase your protein to about 1 gram per lb that you weigh. Lower your carbs a couple days a week and bring them back up to normal during the week as well, eat plenty of fiber,…

I use the designer whey from walmart. It is under 15 dollars and has 3 carbs per scoop, 120 cal. and about 24 grams of protein. They have vanilla, choc, and strawberry. I think it tastes better than some I have tried. But thats just me. :smile:

I personally always eat close to my needed calories, but sometimes I click the complete diary early in the day, even though I am not done eating and actually I click that button several times per day.... just out of habit. So if my friends check my diary early on, it may not look like I at all my calories, even though I…

I have the garmin FR60 as well, with heart rate mon. and foot pod! LOVE IT!! I use it for weight training, circuit training and then when I run outside it tells me my pace, how many miles I have run, calories, time, how fast I ran each mile, HR, etc. It also comes with an ANT stick that can download all your info from each…

Thank you, anyone else out there know a thing or two?

anybody know..................

My midsection is better than before I had my 2 c-sections. It is possible!

Just tried my 1st LCC this week, loved it. Love this page!

I drink that same amount of Diet Coke. I know its not the best option for me but, I feel so good when I have it, sometimes when I am hungry a diet coke will solve that until my next meal or snack. I wish water was something I craved and I know if I made the concious effort to stop I would want water more, but I cant…

i ate this everyday for 2 years. I now sometimes just eat it with PB or if I use the protein I am really liking the vanilla. Minus the brown sugar. I used splenda white sugar instead.
