haha damn it I can't type for crap sometimes, yes public lol

the scale to refect my current work ethic lol

ran outside in pubic in a sports bra. 20 years of obesity kills self esteem so for me this was huge deal.

Me, but want people to talk to and chat and interact with or at least like posts haha

watching mickey mouse clubhouse and sharing popcorn with my daughter

So cuddly looking :-) lol

4lbs heavier in top picture too. Still want to cut 10lbs more down since the bulk ended.

I am about to fork over $150 for a dexa scan hahaha and I want to be as close to goal as possible.

How did it go Dexa wise?

Also one has bikini athletic too, NSL I believe in between bikini and figure which is nice.

You have 2 options. Set as sedentary and then log every workout you do. I would skip logging the slow walk of the dog to balance any logging inaccuracy. OR Use a TDEE method, add up total hours you workout and then eat the same daily and NOT log you workout.

spartan race june 3rd

leg press calculated 1rm 600lbs :-)

I have pretty bad body dismorphia which is why i rely on these test so much, but really just do not think I was that low. If it would have said 14-15% I could have maybe went with it but they say 1lb of fat is about the size of a closed up fist and my thighs easily had 6 or more each leg, which would be 12+lbs of fat and…

Sad part is I weight 3lbs less in bottom pic too AND still have 7lbs more to cut down. Should be intersting to see my dexa once I hit goal.

Commenting so I can find this later and be held responsible. Pre bulk I was 134, ended bulk at 147lbs (12-16 weeks, fine 12 week bulk, 4 week lazy maintenance trying to cut) finally on the cut wagon and want to get back down to 135 then will post up pics. :)

added it above.

haha thanks, you should see my upper now post bulk lol I am guessing 5lbs or more of LBM gain. eak! :) pics help haha

Welp in my case bodpod was horribly inaccurate. Same day got tested at 9.6% -10.8%, caplipers put me at 16-17% at the same time, 134lbs 5'6 so yeah I will no longer consider that equipment accurate at all. Left pic, right was 190lbs back in 2013 lol This was a different bodpod 12 weeks earlier, said 22% at 144 got around…

I was 212, down to 150 pre pregnancy then back to 204 with pregnancy. Now am 142 as of today, lowest 134 pre bulk a few months back if anyone wants to add me too. :)

Sounds about right. I am older, taller, and heavier, but also female. I maintain around 2200, and workout a bit less then you. (6hrs or so a week, 50/50 lifting to cardio) MFP errors on the side of underestimating TDEE so that you don't gain weight when following it's calorie recommendations. If you eat 2200 and maintain…

<3 I am having that same issue. Gained 10-12lbs on a bulk. Lost 5lbs of it and now am just like la de da sucking at cutting. I can do it, I know I can but also was tested last time at 16% or so fat at my goal weight pre bulk so know these last 5lbs of fat are not easy.

If you're talking one of those handhelds in the gym, they are so ridiculously off for some people it's hysterical. Those handheld put me under 10% because I have a very lean upper body, however my lower half is all of my fat distribution. If you are busty and carry your body fat on your upper half it is going to…

Nope, you can't spot reduce. If you want to loose belly you eat at a deficit until you body decides it wants to loose the fat stored there.

Being toned happens when you eat at a deficit and loose body fat and then the muscle your body has shows. So what exactly shape wise do you want? Lean, Slim, Muscular? All things require different styles of work.

Nope I was over since Halloween haha, so my maintenance is get back to maintenance levels
