Now this is a great post! Thanks for sharing. I have several new salads to try now!!!

I couldn't agree with you more. I am one who stands by the ideal that complimenting one another is great but do not have a laundry list of expectations for a potential mate that YOU cannot meet!!! It all starts with self-love and knowing your worth. Once you have that most everything else will fall in place. I am perceived…
-
I must ask...Why? Are you saying you are not worthy of a healthy & loving relationship? Is it a self-love issue?
-
I am in!!! I will do 200! I will add that to my exercise for the day too!!! Thanks for this mini challenge.

I am honest and tactful. Rude is negative so I tend to stay away from that. Keeping it real is a positive and a necessity. Are you sure you want someone to be rude towards you? LOL. I believe you want/need someone to keep it real with you not insult you, right?
-
This is funny...nothing negative at all here. :smile: Some of the posts were hilarious.
-
nope...you were right on the money.

I understand. I hear you! I support you. I joined MFP a while back and never really used it at all. I really got on board this year. I don't like to weigh myself at home so I didn't. I stuck to eating better and exercising. Some weeks were better than others. I had some cheat meals too. What I found with me is that…

Way to go!!!
-
I used to think that too but guess what I learned...it was my carb-heavy eating that bulked me up. I was hitting the weights and eating the hell outta those carbs. The truth is, from what I've learned at least & in my recent experience over the last 2 years, is that you are right. Lifting weight, building muscle burns more…

Girl you look friggin amazing!!! Right after a baby too! I am inspired. What was this 2 week challenge? I'd like to try it too. Did you breast feed? I heard that helps get the new mom's figure back. I have a friend who just gave birth 7/4 and she is eager to get back on her fitness regimen.
-
I'm down!! Sorry I'm late posting.

Great words of encouragement. I needed this too. We all do at some point. It's hard to remain disciplined when everyone is not onboard. I'm in that boat. When I met my boyfriend I was: Eating healthy In running class Tuesday & Thursday Working with a trainer Monday & Wednesday Played softball every Thursday evening after…

My $0.02 Student loan debt is not bad. You have to adjust your lifestyle to make ends meet and student loans are included. I wouldn't be so harsh to say that anyone with student loan debt who is struggling to pay for it bit off more than they could chew. I'm inlcined to believe that circumstances change...life…

friggin amazing!!!!

I seem to need re-focusing each week. I am doing well but sometimes I forget to log my food and exercise. I need to keep checking in to stay motivated. I believe I will start this challenge even though I am late starting. So I will start today.

My trainer, Stu @ ESC CrossFit Southend, suggests an apple with a small serving of protein. So I usually have a small braeburn apple and about 7 slices of turkey pepperoni. I am also a supplement fan. So I take a tablespoon of L-Carnatine before my workout.
-
I needed this post today. I recently took part in some jogging (I am not a runner) and well, someone came flying by me with encouraging words. All the while i am thinking to myself "You will finish the run", knowing I had to do some strength training afterwards. The women who work out with me are amazing. They are always…

I did insanity a while back and I wore my HRM to track calories burned. Awesome job!:smile:
-
Hello. I've had the same issue. It seems that when I lose weight I ended up gaining it back and not even realizing it until too late. Well, now that I am back on track I will need to network here to help keep me motivated and disciplined. @ Myogibbs - Not setting a goal or date will be difficult b/c I really want to be in…

Watermelon when it is in season...but in moderation of course. I could actually eat watermelon everyday.
-
Job well done! I am inspired by your success and progress. I am fairly new to MFP and I just have not been as consistent as I'd like to be. Some weeks are better than others. I enjoy working out (currently in CrossFit) but I often fall off with my eating. For instance, I am feeling really motivated now and I hope to stay…
-
Me too! We can motivate each other. Will add you.

I have run before ( I am not a "runner") but need to get back at it. I am doing CrossFit and I find myself losing inches, getting stronger, and feeling a little bulky, which means I need to increase my carido. I am going to try Couch to 5k as well.
-
I have never heard of it but may look into it. I haven't even weighed myself b/c I am in CrossFit. I am gaining muscle and stepping on the scale may send me mind-tripping.
-
True...so true. I do not feel any different but I don't feel bad. :wink:
-
I have not tried those but I do use the African Mango Dr. Oz talked about. I am not sure that I am seeing or feeling a difference and it's been about 6 weeks. I also take CLA and drink L-Carnatine (love it) along with some other vitamins. All seem to work fine as of now so I plan to continue.
-
I am doing it. I drink protein shakes to help stay within my calories. Isagenix is what I use now. I also have a 100% Whey powder from Costco that good (on the sweet side).
-
Well, I have only gained. Just lost my way over the holidays. I started over last week. I met with my trainer and had a long discussion about what I needed to do. So this is week 2 of starting over...and I happen to have a cold and no appetite. Any suggestions?
