1. Oatmeal 2. Milk 3. Quick added calories (i'm lazy) 4. Oil - Olive 5. Cottage cheese 6. (because quick added calories isn't a food) apple! I changed up my diet a bit in the past few months, but before basically all I ate was oatmeal, cottage cheese and apples. No surprises here!

I plan my entire week ahead. Or at least for a few days. I'm a bit OCD on the food logging though, so you might not want to take advice from me. However, planning everything makes it easier for me to not have to think about everything I eat, because I know what I'll be eating. I do leave room for a few mistakes though…

Ha, misread the calendar.. Today is actually bikini blast off!

I need to do this. Getting new rules of lifting for women in asap (somehow starting strenght is not easily available in my country). I usually like the feeling of being 'one of the guys' but daaaaamn those free weights intimidate the *kitten* out of me. Went in there a few times with a friend (you know, 'girls travel in…

Doesn't it say 7000 jumping jacks instead of 1000? That way the math checks out.

Buy meat (chicken!) in bulk and grill/slow cook it for the entire week, then shred. Oatmeal is dirt cheap & nutritious (for breakfast). As for vegetables; go to the freezer section! They usually have a lot of variety for half the price. Also: make everything yourself. Don't buy salads or anything, it's a waste of money.…

save for summer

Bumping for later

I am IN!!!! I need to go to the gym for at least 45 minutes 4 times a week - so thats 180 minutes exactly. I'm not counting walking, biking etc, because it is the only way for me to get around (no car). I'm planning my workouts in my agenda, hopefully that & this challenge will make me stick to them! Week # 1 – February…

Wow, seriously, I feel incredibly weak in this topic.. Bench Press (machine, Chest Press): 20 kg (44 lbs) - However I have a lifelong arm-injury so one arm is really behind, working on it! Leg curl + Leg extension: 30 kg (66 lbs) Lat pulldown: 20 kg (44 lbs) - again with the arm thing Low row: 20 kg (44 lbs) Glute (one leg…

I want in! :D - Get out of bed when my alarm rings - Start EVERY DAY with T25 - Lift weights 3x a week

Saving this - need me a good bean burger every once in a while!

Thanks for the quick responses! I was definitely expecting more judgy posts.. ;) I will definitely be tracking my alcohol intakes and also drinking more strong mixers (vodka diet coke coming my way!). bever had whiskey and soda, but I want to start drinking whiskey and this sounds like a good start.. However most of the…

I'm not doing the meal plan though, just the exercises!

I AM IN!! Also, adding you as a friend if you don't mind :)

I'm not sure what this check-in thing is, but I feel like I want to fill out this form, so i'm just going to do it ;) Did you stay within your nutritional goals? no Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? no What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? cleaned the kitchen! What would I have done differently? had just the…

I'm thinking baked zucchini/eggplant with lowfat cheese, and sweet potato fries with sour cream right now. Its over my calorie goal but somewhat healthy I suppose? Maybe some baked apple with oatmeal for dessert? And I'm in the Netherlands, so neither ;)

I know, I know, I'm gonna have to let go of a few of the conditions! However this dinner is the start of a feasting few days and I find it hard to let go completely, I just started losing weight and would really much like to continue :) But if I'll up my calories and lose the low(ish) carb idea, I should be good right?

Yeah, I was having that tofu-problem the last time I had dinner with the boyfriend.. Also by low carb I mean 30-40% carbs, so not like zero carbs. But I suppose I should just ignore the macros for a bit and go low cal - vegetarian? That has to be possible, right?

This. So much.

Dated topic, but I want more 5'7''-8'' success stories ! :)

I'm 5'7'' and my goal weight is 143. My current weight is 198 and I have a pretty large frame (I think?) because even when I'm this overweight the fat is still pretty evenly distributed along my body. I have no idea what I'd look like when I'm 143. Maybe I'll want to get lower than that, but that'll be worries for later!

Eyebrows You have a beautiful strong brow!

Trustful I don't know why, but you look like I can tell you anything without judging or telling someone else!

Well, yes, maybe I should consider having a cheat-24hours. It's just I have only started a week ago and don't want to risk thinking 'See, I can't do this, I should stop'. But maybe I should just let loose a bit and start again the day I return. However, bringing some healthy snacks won't hurt me, will it? :) Thanks for all…

Hey! I'm Emma, 20 years old and living in the Netherlands. I can't really start T25 just yet because of a hip injury, but I'll definitely start before the new year (hopefully sooner). I've never done anything from beachbody. The only programme I once followed was from blogilates, and that was just for 2 days or something…

Wow, isn't MFP supposed to be a supportive and understanding community? What's up with all the people saying she's rude and just overall "not fun"? I know I won't be asking any questions anytime soon.

Thanks for the tips! I think I'm gonna go with some fruit, carrots, protein powder (it should work in a shake-cup right?) and some fiber-bars. Not really a boatload of protein, but it'll do for just one night/day!
