The Difference Between The Squat And The Deadlift. Just to be clear, they may both work your legs but they are NOT the same movement. ... The Squat focuses on knee bend and dropping your butt toward the ground to work your legs while the Deadilft focuses more on hinging at the hips to load the glutes. (just as the picture…

UPDATE: (September 18, 2016). I have adopted back into my KETO lifestyle successfully and I reigned in my intake to reflect better what I am achieving. I have gone from 186 to 144 and while I am not really dieting (haven't since May) I wouldn't mind losing another 10 ish pounds. Not really necessary though as I feel so…

I originally hail from Montreal, PQ but now call Saskatoon, SK home. Although I have lived in Calgary, Burnaby and Cornwall as well. Please feel free to add me as well!

June 1st 19,653 steps! So close to a long time goal of 20,000.

I am happy to have new motivated friends. I fplow a low carb high fat diet and this works for me. I believe in aupporating each other!

How do I join this challenge? Also how do I find other challenges

I have to agree with much of the sentiments here. Guesstimating leads to frustration which is what you are feeling. You don't have to purchase an expensive scale, but for clarity you should get one. It helps BIG TIME! I would also suggest that you do body measurements. The scale will not reflect inches lost. Finally - And…

Please feel free to add me, and I especially love those using FITBIT as I use the challenges to really push myself. S​q​u​a​r​e​1​A​c​c​o​u​n​t​a​b​l​e is my fitbit ID. Oh and everyone is a motivator for me. If you are over 45 and a woman trying to get back into shape or ramp up for a new goal, I would love to connect as I…

Hello everyone, I have been down this path as well. Off again, on again relationship with MFP. This year what made it different for me was being honest with myself. Truly and accepting what I was seeing and not being so hard on myself. I also set myself up with small goals and rewards for each of them ;) Please feel free…

Hello Stacy - what are your goals? Welcome to MFP :)

Having the same issues - hit and miss :(

You got this :)

I MUST remember these things - self care .....so important!

How do you balance what "they" eat verses what you "should" be eating?

So let's motivate each other. Remember to not view the dieting as a pass or fail....instead prepare for the "not so great" moments - don't let them define you. YOU DO HAVE WILLPOWER - we all do. :smiley:

Thanks for the information! Helpful! :)

Saskatoon, SK Canada -27 (feels like -38 with the wind) Sigh So to convert that to F is :-17 F feeling like -36F with the windchill. It is a wee bit cold here *wink*

I know eh, I haven't been this excited about a run in a very long long time. Nervous as it has been such a long time, but so blinkin' excited :) See you at the finish line ladies :)

I live in the West End - work in the East End....HELLO :) (and I am originally from Quebec so I know my poutine *wink*)

Well, here is what I propose - we should meet up if we can for after the run! I will be putting my Screen Name on my T-Shirt. I am so stoked to do this! We don't need to be runners - just people being active & having a great time! :)

Truly inspirational. Keep up the hard work!!:happy:

I am on week 3 (Phase 1 w/o 3 &4). Today was first day of W/O 3; and all I have to say is DANG I am in for it! Love it so far though. It's hard but it's all about the effort you give right. Yea she can be crazy but I need that :) Awesome work everyone!

Yes - she does "rant" but you know what - I need to hear her voice to help keep motivated. I am on week 3 of Phase 1 of the Body Revolution and I can't believe how much I am able to do from day 1. I have a love/hate relationship with her, but you can't deny the results. She always does suggest modifications and that it's…

Cora, I like the idea of logging in what you "plan" to eat so that you can stick to it as closely as possible. I think I will try this for the next week. If nothing else it really helps me to "decide" what to eat verses trying to enter it all after I have eaten! Great tip!
