Very different. I'm 5'9 and weigh 139lbs. I guess I could still loose 2-3lbs but I feel comfortable at the weight I am right now. I only started lifting 2 months ago so I don't have a lot of muscle yet. A colleague is is 5'10 but feels comfortable at 148 -149lbs. Although we only have ~1 inch height difference her ideal…

What a stupid bird. Seems like it had a death wish anyway. Cats are so fast even when it looks like they are not paying attention.

Aaaahh that's your secret. You look much lighter than 155lbs but if you are lifting that explains. You look amazing.

Didn't see that one yet

I need to find this in the future

Wow You look awesome and flat belly too! I'm 5'9 but you look soo much better at that weight than I did.

1. 16.5lbs, at goal now 2. 5-6 months 3. I am not strictly tracking but cut out sugary drinks and reduced snacking. I guess I was netting around 1500 during the week. Weekends are probably higher because I don't pay attention then and eat what I want. 4. Started with 3 days running and later on added 3 days weightlifting…

Your scale only goes to 300 but you are 350 so how do you know you are doing something wrong? I mean you have to lose 50lbs before you scale will show it. You could track your progress until then by taking measurements of e.g. hips, waist, chest, neck, thigh and arm.

^This I wasn't overweight when I started my fitness adventure but I was at the end of the bmi range and very unhappy. Clothes were fitting badly. I had a belly, big thighs and hips. When I compared pictures of myself with pictures of other people at the same weight I definitely looked fat compared to them. After I lost…

I always saw it as a bucket. Th weight range is there to give you a general guideline and will fit more than one body type. For example I have a small body frame so my ideal weight is more in the lower half of the range. My colleague whose height is almost the same as mine would probably look malnourished at that weight.…

I learned a few months ago that no matter how crappy I feel, exercising actually helps. Especially running is wonderful for it. If I go running when I have cramps and generally feel like crap, I feel ten times better afterwards and the cramps are usually gone. I wonder why.

Brussel Sprouts, Tomato Soup or plain tomato sauce. If it's one ingredient of a sauce that's fine but plain no thanks. I am reading here that people eat kale raw or in chips. Not exactly sure why you would do that. It's not a terrible common food in my country but whenever I ate it it was in a stew or somehow cooked or…

My father started running when he was around 40 and still does 13 years later. He is damn fast too. Wish I could run that fast

Ok truth be said exercise is not my favourite past time and when I started it was a chore. After half a year I am still not madly in love with it but strangely enough I also don't hate it anymore and I love the benefits from it. For me it is a little bit like cleaning. I don't like to clean but I like to live in a clean…

I'm 5'9" and right now weigh 139lbs (63kg) and want to get down to 136-137lbs (62kg). I really would urge you to gain a little bit. I have a hard time believing that 108lbs at your height is a good weight. When you have more muscles and maybe a little bit more fat on you you also want be soo cold anymore as you are now…

Strongest changes are at waist which is more defined you can clearly see it at the transition waist to hip which is more dramatic now. Second strongest change is the stomach outline. If you look at the left pic it protrudes much more outward and there is a little pouch above you panties. On the right pic the pouch is gone…

You look good and very healthy compared to your before picture. You look much younger too and your ears are fine to me :huh:

Don't waste your money. Tons of people here lost weight without some magical pill. Save the money for your kids or a gym membership. As previous posters said if it would be the one pill that helps, everyone would use it. Instead check how many calories you are eating a day and learn portion control and maybe incoroporate…

I think you look much younger on the second picture!

I would go, why not, especially if it's just a bit.

Ugh had the same happening when I started this year but it got so much better in the second week!!. Just keep doing it and your body will get used to it.

Ok here is my squat with horrible form. It was also at the end of my squat session and I was already exhausted. The issue is I don't even know where to start to improve it :(. My back tends to round I think partly because of poor hamstring flexibility. However without the bar I can squat down without a problem. Now that I…

Washing it every third day regardless of whether I work out or not. If it starts to look oily I pull it pack into a pony tail. Less obvious then ;)

Don't get discouraged 8 days are not enough to to make it a trend and weight fluctuates. Weigh yourself always on the same day at the same time. If you didn't loose wait after a month reevaluate. My weight fluctuates about 1-2kg during a day and even weekly there are fluctuations. I have weeks were I weigh a kilo more than…

Yes I was planning to ask someone fo film me next time and then post it here because I know that I do something wrong, I am just not sure what exactly :( (although I am pretty sure the issue is not my wider stance).

^I'd like to second that. To be more specific armpit and down there trimmed and chest hair as it is, no trimming necessary.

Don't give up if you don't want to fail :flowerforyou: I think your husband is a wise man. 12 days is not a lot and you should give it at least a month before you check and reevaluate but never give up. You need to treat this as lifestyle change. You want to get healthier and have good habits which you can maintain the…

If I would eat lamb that would sound delicious. Rice itself has not a strong taste so you can eat it with a lot of things. All kinds of meat go with it. Gravy and in fact most sauces are also good with rice. You can also mix the rice with peas if you like them. There is also egg fried rice.

Does it really matter in your current situation? Right now, judging from your picture you are at an unhealthy weight.

Thanks for the links. Very interesting. I will try this out as soon as possible
