I'd love to join! I am new to this way of eating and I am currently traveling with my family in our RV so I don't have a scale (maybe that is a good thing?). So, I will keep my goals simple: log every day and eat less than 50 g carb per day. I will also hope my measuring tape shows progress at the end of the month.

Your transformation is amazing! How long have you been lifting heavy? I've been checking out Stronglifts.

I am on my second Whole30 (first one in January). I find it so much easier this time around and I feel so good. Unfortunately I didn't stick with paleo after my first Whole30, mainly due to grabbing foods for convenience. This time I am committing to it. I'm impressed you've stayed with it so long!

I started Stronglifts about a month ago. Feeling so proud of myself :) Today I did: Squat 85 Bench 55 Row 65

I am also a super newbie! I am mostly excited that I am getting more and more comfortable in the weight room. Still a bit intimidating but I am pushing through it. I am also almost up to the olympic bar in all lifts and should get there soon enough. Qski, I wish I could offer you some suggestions but I am still learning…

I just now got Day 2 in. I started late and will "only" do 30DS 3 or 4 days a week with my other fitness goals. Man this is tough for me! All I can say is I am super proud that I just got up and did it even before my morning cup of coffee. It is great to be able to check in with you guys!

Thanks! I just had that conversation with my hubby. I'd like for him to be there the first time I try the bar, which will likely be over the weekend. I am guessing I can do it but it just felt awkward when I somewhat attempted it last weekend. I am guessing I mostly need help getting acclimated with the squat rack and the…

Yes, the bar is not wide enough to fit the squat rack at my gym. That is why I have been using dumbbells. It won't be too long until I work my way up at least.

I went to Bodypump twice this month and was shocked to burn over 500 calories each time! I will say both times the instructors elongated the class to 70 minutes. I am switching to Stronglifts though because I want to focus more on strength.
-
I did 2 Bodypump classes over the last two weeks. It was my first time lifting any kind of weights since I was in my twenties. Yikes! I must say, just going to the classes is what got me over my initial weight intimidation. Now I am ready to start Stronglifts 5x5 and even visited the weightroom with hubby this weekend to…

I just found this thread - new to MFP and aiming to be more accountable than ever! Did you stay within your nutritional goals? All my consumption was great except for the red wine Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Close! What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Went on a power walk at IKEA What would I have done…

I remember we had a dessert made from scratch every night! My father had a sweet tooth and so we all had one :) I was so surprised when I finally discovered everyone didn't have this at their home.
