Update: 1). Prepare my meals for the week and write down goals --wrote down my goals and made a meal plan, but did not cook everything. 2). Drink 3 L of water at the least --got that done 3). Get my 1 hour of cardio done --only did 25 minutes, but better than nothing. Tomorrow's goals: 1). Cook my meals and stay on track…

A while ago, I got Eva Longoria, and more recently, I get Kim Kardashian. I don't agree with the Eva Longoria, but that was a few years back when my hair was a little different. I can see Kim Kardashian when I put make-up on, otherwise, no.…

Hello, I am just now seeing this thread, but I can definitely relate to late night eating!!! Most of my mindless/overeating crap happens at night, and I have been working on it with some success and lately, some nonsense!...but, I definitely will NOT give up. I have worked too hard, and this is just a bump in my road to…

Hi there, I love the idea of DAILY goals. It definitely helps to build good, solid habits. I am 25 year old and in pharmacy school. I have aspirations to be successful in the fitness industry, but I have a history of emotional/mindless eating. Sometimes those bouts of overeating arise, and I continue to find ways to avoid…

Hi everyone, so excited to be part of this challenge. My starting weight from this morning is 132.5 lbs. I want to lose 6-8 lbs by January 5th. I am thankful for the ability to move and eat healthy food! Happy Thanksgiving everyone. :)

Naaa I want some chocolate!!!!! LOL.... and it wouldn't have the same consistency I think

This is a great idea, and I am definitely in need of this as I have been falling off the wagon lately with my own weekly challenges. I think some accountability and motivation from here can help (hopefully). I am tired of being upset and miserable with myself!!! 1) Choose something you know you can do easily. 2) Add more…

thank you very much, your response is helpful.

about the topic of bcaas, i currently ingest bcaas pre and post workout. i just put in 1 scoop in my water...when you say 5-15 grams of bcaa, do you mean the weight of the powder or the amount of amino acids? my bcaa is composed of 2 g l-leucine, 1 g l-isoleucine, and 1 g l-valine per scoop, but each scoop weights approx…

you must count them...they are calories.

definitely eating way too little...if it's hard for you to get your needed calories, u might want to add calorie dense foods that don't have much volume (oils, peanut butters, nuts, etc.)..

in my opinion, if you are working out hard 6x/week, then yes, you should rest..especially if you are having stiffness...that doesn't mean slouching on the couch all day on your rest day..i would take that day to do full body stretching, foam rolling, or yoga. just move around, walk, do chores, prepare your meals for the…

yes, i guess the whole point here is to just don't get drawn so quickly to the advertising, read your labels, do your research, then decide!

in my opinion, the supplements and vitamins you have listed should not stall your weight loss. are you obtaining your omega-3 from fish oil? for some products, 2 fish oil capsules contain 25 calories, but, this is a very minor detail. the important thing here is your diet and your exercise. you may want to re-assess other…

people are hoping that there is a magic wand, abacadabra..and poof, you've lost weight...they don't want to hear the truth, it takes WORK, CONSISTENCY, AND GOING OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE.

To those that are not familiar with Fighter Diet, you can look at Pauline's website that has e-books and an extensive blog: fighterdiet.com. Add her page on Facebook also, she is very interactive there. Search Fighter Diet and add it. After you do some of your research on it, let me know if you officially want to…

weight fluctuates for a number of reasons, could be fluid retention...as long as you are eating and exercising for weight loss...you should not stress that it is actual fat gained..avoid weighing yourself everyday..and a suggestion also is to weigh yourself first thing in the morning before consuming food/liquid and after…

Today was pretty good for me, I think keeping busy helps!!

I think planning meals ahead of time is a great way to avoid the urge to binge...set out a plan of your meals everyday..and STICK WITH IT! If you truly do feel hungry, it's okay to add something like veggies or a small serving of protein to fill you up well. Also, remember to drink up that water!!! I myself will need to…

By the way, Pauline has a challenge starting Aug 1st, and I am definitely in!! Check out her FD facebook page for more info....

Well day 1 for me was iffy...not bad, and certainly not like how I was last winter... I have a tendency sometimes to wake up really early to go to the bathroom or just wake up to an internal alarm clock and then make my way to the fridge!!! It happened early this morning, so I was not too happy during the later part of the…

Hi, I have FD and FDX..planning to start FDX next week (7/18), the 1500 calorie plan, until the end of the month to see how it works out, then go from there. Want to start together?

Maybe now that you've lost weight, your expectations are higher? I have lost weight, but I am always striving to improve as my standards go higher and I am able to do more. Do you also do strength training? If you only do cardio, you end up with a smaller version of your previous body...strength training helps to shape it…

Pharmacy student here, in my last year thankfully...but 2nd and 3rd year were really rough on me as far as food...I know how it goes!!! Keep the good habits up, it's all about habits and staying focused on your goals.

Hello, I definitely relate..if I don't want to do something, even SLEEP..I sometimes end up eating. Happened yesterday in fact..please add me as a friend, and count me in :) Support really goes a long way!!

Hey there, I completed one full round of Insanity, and it's a love/hate thing for sure! I am now doing a hybrid of P90x/Insanity, where I do P90x, but replace the cardio with Insanity. Believe me, once you complete Insanity, P90x cardio is nothing in comparison! By the way, I am thinking about my next workout. How did you…

It is good to recognize what you need to help yourself. I just want to tell you that you are so beautiful although you may currently not feel that way. I am familiar with the self negativity and self consciousness, but I know that when you work on the inside just as much as the outside, you will be more at peace. Try some…
