5'8" CW 150 HW 180 *post pregnancy GW n/a My original goal weight was 140. I worked cardio everyday and ate next to nothing. I did not see definition or toned muscles and I was weak all the time. This plan lasted 3mos. Started lifting heavy weights 3x week and swapped the cardio to HIIT 2x week about 5years ago. I went…

Chocolate peanut butter, the 'natural flavor' one is a hit in our home. Stevia and Lo Han Guo are the sweeteners used. Like others mentioned, they're great for on the go and quick protein/fiber when my food day has been icky lol

I'm 5'8", 150lb and 20% bf, avg 2000 calories daily. I'm maintaining at 50/25/25 - Its all about dem macros! lol Carbs to feed the muscles, protein to repair the muscles and fat to transport it all. You mentioned carb cycling, for many (like myself) it works wonders. Instead of bulk/cut cycles, the past few years I've used…

In agreement to eating more whole dense foods, watch your sugar intake. I see you switched up to 1350 kcal a day - GOOD! yay! Keep your sugars at or below 50g daily. If you're not burning fuel (sugar) it will be stored in your liver then if theres too much, it will overflow from the liver and stored as fat! (yuk!) Normally…

Its worth a shot to go wheat free. Try it for a month? Whats the harm? Some find a difference in swelling, skin, clear head etc. Like any other allergy, some will find relief while others will not *shrug* Hubs travels for work and kept getting a skin rash on his torso, we assumed from bleach ridden sheets at the hotels. He…

5'8" currently 150lbs avg. - US size 6/8. My initial goal weight was 140 but I didn't like how my body looked (I was a cardio bunny and ate whatever I wanted within a caloric limit) Now I eat the right foods, lift heavy weights and feel good staring in the mirror :wink:

Amazing. :love:

I was 130lbs, size 6 when I graduated. 20yrs later I'm 150lbs and still in a size 6 *flexes muscles* I'll take the number on my clothes tags any day! :laugh:

Have a staircase handy? Run up and down those a few times, skip a step going up - that'll get your heart rate moving. Jumping jacks, mnt climbers as well. Static/Active moves like squat and holds for 10 secs will help build strength. Resistance bands are good, weights are too. Have a sturdy stool? Step ups, hold dumbbells…

Next time you're at your doctor's office, have him/her use body calipers to determine body fat. (for women they pinch the tricep, quad and lower belly). The website link you posted had me at 26%! Yikes! No way! Last I was measured in April by caliper at 21%. You can be a certain size but that doesn't count lean muscle mass…
