I'm a big fan of vodka and triple sec but DANG are the calories ridiculous... 4 shots (25ml x 4) is 280 and 450 calories respectively and that usually isn't even enough for a night out so I really had to choose if it was even worth it for me

I'm about 5'7 and in around 155-160. Like said above it's going to depend on a lot of other factors, but for a basic idea... on sedentary days, with limited walking or activity (college student), I'll eat about 1300. At days at work, where I get between 20,000 and 30,000 steps and it's a physical job (horses), I'll eat…

I love Muscle Milk! I always get the chocolate flavour. they come premixed like in juice boxes or in powder form (I bought it off Amazon), and it has 16g of protein per scoop, which I add to milk for extra protein on top of that

I go through patches where I'm just outrageously hangry, even though I've been at this for about five months and have not really changed my diet since September (when I drastically changed it due to moving countries). I honestly do not eat particularly well, like for example breakfast is two sausages, two slices of bacon,…

add me on fitbit as well! [edited by mods]

I was in night shift for two years, first 10-6 and then 7-7, as well as a part time job and plenty of overtime, so my shifts were always a disaster. I just continued to log midnight to midnight for a day and ignored whatever meal slots are on the diary. for example I would stick my 1am break into breakfast, and have a…

I used to weigh once a week but I'd get discouraged if there wasn't continuous progress, as well as finding it difficult to maintain healthy habits because I would binge after weigh ins and eat well the rest of the week. I personally find it best and easiest to weigh in once a month (a day or two after the t.o.m), since I…

Ontario born but currently in the U.K. for school

Hey! I'm a rider too, Canadian hunter trying to make it in England for college

It is! Home town :D

this is my little turkey, Indy! she runs circles around me and is always down for a good snuggle afterwards, so that's always a good reward for getting outside

From Toronto area but currently in Bristol area :)

I don't have any recent experience with the wii, but I would imagine a scale would be more accurate because ideally you can put it somewhere where it wouldn't move, and somewhere a little more private so you can weigh yourself with limited clothing

Hey! I just came off of night shift, I had been on it for two years. I did two different shifts, one was 10pm-6am and the other was 7:45-7:30. Because I also did part time work and switched my schedule around throughout the week, I just counted midnight to midnight regardless of when I ate or when I was sleeping

I just log midnight to midnight regardless of whether I'm at work for the night or not, I'm in a warehouse as well. I log as follows: 1am break: lunch 4am break: small snack 7:30/8am: after jog snack 3/4pm: breakfast 7/8pm: dinner

It takes a little bit of figuring out, I've been on night shift for about a year now. Pack yourself a lot of healthy snacks, try to balance some proteins/fats to keep you full, and combine slow release and quick release carbs (fruits and grains) to keep your energy up without grabbing for candies and caffeine. I'm also a…

not nightmares, but I definitely had some weird dreams that made me wake up going "what the f"

it really does depend where you go, each store will have a little bit of a different measurement. but in and around a size 10 (us) would be a likely fit. I really really recommend levi's and jean machine (my personal favourite), because they have so many different shapes and styles to get you in to something wonderful.

Splitting them up is a good idea - many short workouts is easier than one big one. You can read chapters while you walk on a treadmill, and sort of do two things at once? (I understand jogging is better, but it's hard to read that way) oooor read a page, then go do a short circuit of something (ex. 50 jumping jacks, 10…

thank you! wannabe dressage queen :p I'm currently working at a hunter barn and riding willy-nilly in a field while she stays at my mom's during school. if I can ever afford another, it'll be dressage for sure :D

a cup of strawberries (halved) with a teaspoon of sugar is my favourite treat! the strawberries are sweet on their own but sometimes I just want something extra sweet.
