Ugh! That's awful, I hope you lose it back. I was sort of expecting the weight gain but not the measurements gain! :( I'm editing my initial post to fix this because you helped me find the other forum posts about the gain! Now I just have to figure out form. :(
-
Truth. I eat basically all day long. Snack snack snack. As long as it's keeping in line with my macros, I'm in. I usually eat a lot of protein at dinner, so I really can eat what I want during the day.
-
I'm shooting for the athletic look but I don't think my chest will ever get down to that size, haha.
-
I love this. I weigh every day and I weigh most of my food (unless it's pre-packaged) and my boyfriend has started to tell me the grams of frozen strawberries he's putting in the smoothies, even though he's not counting calories. Ha! I've converted him! :) But I think as long as a person is not pathological about it (as…

I'm going to chime in and vote for heybales' advice - his spreadsheet for TDEE calculation takes into account body measurements and averaging across several BF% methods, so it's made it really easy for me to figure out my TDEE & how much to eat on a daily basis. If you're a numbers nerd, check it out here:…

Yep, that's how I do it. And the goal totals on the overview page are totaled if you did 1 set 3x a week, 2 sets 3x a week, and 3 sets 3x a week. That way, if you fall in the middle, you know where you're averaging (and maybe set the goal up higher for next month).
-
That's an awesome goal. I think now that I'm not supposed to rest in between exercises, I bet I'm going to go down to 1-2 sets total before I'm wiped out. :( I'll get back up there, though!
-
Yeah, having weight in the chest area makes that uncomfortable. :( I'm going to start doubling up my sports bras, I think.
-
Wooooo! Keep it up! The monthly goal totals are for 1 cycle each time, so we should be sure to reach our goal, even if we start at a lower level!
-
Sorry for the delay, Nehmon! You're all set up.
-
I'm excited too! My weight yesterday was 167.5 lbs. I only measure once a month, so I'll have measurements on 11/20. SW: 167.5 lbs.

You should be okay now - I put in an open Welcome tab and you should be able to pick tasks. if not, let me know.
-
Aw dang, thanks for pointing it out - it's because that first tab is locked to edits. Hmmm, how to fix, how to fix...

Ayane101 and URCanadianAngel - added!

The beginner bodyweight circuit that we'll be following is a really good starting point. You can find it here: http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2009/12/09/beginner-body-weight-workout-burn-fat-build-muscle/ Make sure you rest 2 minutes between exercises - otherwise it's a cardio workout. :)
-
All good, SlimDownWithChristina! :)
-
OK! The following people have tabs: FJDodd Triciad811 Bmoliv66 Romey5 cynthiaschutt If you PM me your email address, I can add you as a collaborator and protect the sheet so only you can edit it. If you don't care, you are all set!

I may be the only person who loves playing 4e. Ah, well. Not playing a game right now but will be in future, hopefully. Actually we might start a Star Wars tabletop first. We'll see.

Is it because he's horrifyingly disgusting? Because that's why I hate him. :\

AWESOME. Great work!

Week 4 Goal: 164 lbs Week 4 Actual: 168.5 lbs - I've actually been holding steady at 167 and yesterday was my strength training day, so I suspect that it's water retention and I'm closer to 166. But still good, honestly - I'm really happy with my progress the last 4 weeks. 9 pounds in 4 weeks is excellent.
-
Love this. Need to start doing this.
-
THIS. For Dragon*Con next year.

Week 3 Goal: 166 Week 3 Actual: 168 Boooooooooooo. :(

I love this game so far, but I've been playing it intermittently with big stretches of Red Dead Redemption because I have tried to play RDR several times and this is the first time I've really gotten into it. So I really want to finish RDR before I go much further in GTAV. But I *love* Michael and Franklin.…

Yup! I have snacks in a big lunch tote in the company fridge - apples, string cheese, clementines, and rice cakes in my desk drawer. Keeps me away from the vending machine (for the most part). Actually, most days I just eat lunch meat with some mustard - not really into sandwiches - so that's in the lunchbag too. That way…
-
Yeah, how dare you have a personality? What were you thinking? Don't you realize that this is a serious forum with specific and scientific questions? Where do you get off thinking this forum has any social aspects? </cracking self up> But seriously, that post on setting calorie/macro targets was really helpful. I'm a…
-
This is enormously helpful. I need to read it a few more times, but it's already helping me. I downloaded the spreadsheet and I'm working through it. Thank you very very much.

I reposted the entire question in novel form over on EM2WL here, maybe I'll get someone who's got an idea of what I'm getting at! Here's the link to that post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1115545-this-is-a-novel-understanding-my-tdee
