Hahahahaha! Love it.

I'm 5'3.5"... mayyybbeeee 5'4". I'm currently 135 and I would love to weight 125 lbs. That was the lowest weight I've been (I think I was actually heavier in high school) and it was during my freshman year of college where I lived off of coffee and not a whole lot else. So, I'd like to see if I can get there in a better,…

Greek yogurt?

I was wondering the same thing, if you don't mind. :smile:
-
To be honest, I was multi-tasking when I wrote that. I'm not even sure why I put that in there. Maybe I meant that, even without out-right weight lifting, I've always had muscle definition in certain areas- obviously not as much as I would like! Haha! End point: what you're saying makes sense. What you said what great…

And THAT's what I get for not reading the whole thread! Sorry for the repeat of info!!

I agree with this, whole-heartedly. I have no idea if this is an old-wives' tale or not but: I've heard something about wrist measurements being an indicator of bone structure. I have no idea if this is true or not... but, I feel like someone has told me this once before.
-
^This. Haha! Awesome, thank you for the advice. I've never been "weak" per say, but I definitely understand what you're saying. Thank you again!
-
Thank you for the suggestion - and MY GOODNESS... I thought it was just me!! I'm not here to start a fight. I'm not here for drama, and just wanted to keep the peace. I just had a question. So thank you for that, as well. Maybe I'll go every other day with full body and cardio. Again- it'll be trial and error :smile:
-
I like that idea, too! Thank you!!
-
[/quote] You're right, I don't. So unless you want to provide that context when you ask questions, all I can do is make assumptions. [/quote] You're right. I do appreciate what you have just said- I was just confused as to what you would consider "heavy enough," I really don't get that. I would lift with a weight that…
-
I guess I was pointing out that you were being a little judgmental? Nonetheless, I thank you for your opinions.
-
I WANT ALL THE THINGS!!!!! Haha! :laugh: This is very interesting, and I think I understand more. I would like to be a smaller version of myself, for sure, but I also don't want to be sickly looking... Verdict is in for me- most definitely will be balancing out the work outs.
-
I agree... full body sounds like a great idea, and I will definitely try the 3 days of only lifting (I have no intention of stopping my healthy life-style so I have plenty of time for trial and error!!!). Depending on whether I miss my running high- I may have to readjust, but I'm going to go in with a positive attitude…

Just curious, as well, where this came from- what impression have I given you 'in between the lines'? I'd like to know this so that I can make sure I come across as clear as I can, as my questions and statements in my original post stated exactly what I wanted them to- nothing more and nothing less. Also curious, how do…
-
Because I asked this exact question and no one answered me. This time, I tailored the question to my situation. Thanks for the input.
-
I want to incorporate some weights into my routine- right now, it's strictly cardio. I have a very tight schedule (blah blah, med program, blah blah, papers, blah blah, job), and I'm happy that I get the 30 minutes I get in anywhere between 3 and 5 times/week. Do you think 15 minutes cardio and 15 minutes of weights would…
-
I'll take it!! :bigsmile:

Is it bad if you don't eat all day- and then try and make up calories toward the end of the day? I'm not a huge breakfast eater- frankly, it makes me sick if I eat early. For the rest of the day, I'm very busy and *poof* it's 5pm. I don't want to put my body into starvation mode, like that dreaded little message with the…

24! :smile: HW 149 SW 145 CW 135 GW 135 2nd GW 130 3rd GW 125 4th GW 125 and toned :bigsmile: I started because I wasn't too happy with my weight- not horrified, but not confident in myself either. Then, my SO started, and I figured it's easier when someone in your house is doing a program like this with you- so why not?!

Grad school :) with end in sight! SW: 145 CW: 135 GW: 135-->130

Darker hair would make your eyes really pop!

That's amazing! Question: from first picture to second- were you working out to the end picture goal (112lbs)? I'd love to have the tone in the second picture. Any idea of what a good balance would be to get there?
-
I'm 5'3.5" (like another poster said- still counts!! :happy: ). I started at around 148- almost 150 and got down to about 140 for this particular beach adventure. Got back up to 145 when I started MFP in Sept. I'm around 135 (current goal), but want to further my goal to 125.
-
Indeed- checked that out. Thanks!
-
What do you mean "double dipping"? At the end of today, the calories available are pretty much right on target with how much I would expect them to be, after my workout, prior to syncing the Fitbit. I logged the exercise, per usual, and just added the start time as requested. Why would I need to change my lifestyle choice…
-
Thanks. I guess discouraged might have been the wrong word. It just wasn't what I was expecting (now it jumped from that -11 to +100). I guess I just need a few days to get used to it? So, if I look at the Fitbit adjustment and the MFP and Fitbit are relatively close to each other- 100 calories or so in one direction or…
-
I would say that I have a relatively flat stomach (not including that dreaded "pooch"...which really isn't *all* that bad...), and I don't eat clean. I eat whatever I want, and there was a point where I had a 100% flat stomach with doing abdominal exercises that targeted all aspects of the abdominal muscles- rectus…

I really didn't eat that poorly- it was mostly drinking, and for me- once I break the seal, it's bathroom time allll the time! :-) I was just surprised by the amount of gain from 1 night and then how long it took to come off if it was really just water. At least it's gone now, I guess?
