It's a buzzword. A tea is not going to accomplish anything your kidney(s) and liver aren't already doing. It's basically just...a nicely flavoured, mild laxative. However, for my "regularity" needs, I prefer metamucil.

Preworkout is not a necessity. That said, I personally use C4 preworkout. A lot of people prefer black coffee.

I personally use C4 and I like it. I prefer the flavour options as I'm not a huge coffee fan, and I find that it works well for me.

i don't! i usually wear a longer tank top with it - i wear thicker leggings as well, haven't had any problems with see through/camel toe. there is a 0% chance i would ever deadlift in a thong.

You can add me. I've logged in for over a year straight. I'm 5'5", about 172lbs right now, with a focus on lifting weights and building strength.

sourdough. oh goodness. my favourite bar has a plate of sourdough with salted butter for $5 and it is my absolute favourite.

Didn't throw anything out, but everything got move to a high shelf in an awkwardly positioned cabinet. We need to get out a step stool to reach the chips/chocolate/etc - so if we're going through the effort, it must be worth it! I find it easiest to just measure out a portion of whatever it is I'm wanting, and then put it…

I typically fast about 12-14 hours 8-10pm-10am. Seems to work fine.

I do scrambled egg on a wrap with cream cheese and some hot sauce. Yum.

I'm equally torn between pizza, beer, and mac&cheese. Hm.

I am a huge huge huge fan of the Kirkland (Costco) brand protein bars. You get 20 bars in a box, and in store I believe a box is $22. No sugar, high fiber, and really quite tasty. https://www.costco.ca/Kirkland-Signature-Protein-Bars.product.100321409.html

I would want the ability to shapeshift. Want to fly? Bird. Want to be a fly on the wall? Be one. Craving affection? Cat. I feel like it would be super handy.

you are probably eating more than you think, and being short, a missed 50-100 calories a day can really add up and completely blow your deficit for the week. start logging everything BEFORE you put it in your mouth. measure, don't eyeball things. do this consistently for ~2 weeks, you'll be better able to see the patterns…

I'm a huge fan of the Kirkland brand ones from Costco. You get a big box for a good price, low sugar, and high protein. I eat one for breakfast nearly every day.

breakfast - 2 scrambled eggs mixed with 1/2 cup cottage cheese. it's so creamy and delicious. lunch - in the slow cooker, I do a can of kidney beans, a can of chickpeas, a can of peaches n cream corn, and a can of diced tomato with a packet of old el paso taco seasoning on low for like 7-8 hrs. split into 5 portions over…

I think the most sustainable thing you could try doing would be try something you can include your kids with, so you're still getting in quality time. Maybe part of the routine is packing them in a wagon and going for a walk around the neighbourhood? Even 20-30 mins a day can make an impact. If it's too hot out right now,…

I'm doing a Push/Pull/Legs program. I started with it just over a year ago, took a bit of a break from the gym (which I regret), and am back with it (3 days a week with 3 days a week of c25k, rather than 6 days a week like before).

You do it the same way on the app. I copy things out of my SO's diary all the time. Once it's in his diary, he can save whatever it is as a meal if it's something you eat frequently.

Today was Week 2 Day 2 for me! I've run 5km nonstop precisely once in my life and I'm super amped to train to make it a regular thing!!

Resting between sets is important! Often I will do some light stretching between sets so I feel like I'm doing something (and so people don't complain about me sitting on my bench checking my phone at the gym hahaha). My rule of thumb is I will start my set at the beginning of a song, and then rest until the song ends.…

Are you drinking calories? Are you weighing and tracking everything? Are there "small" snacks that go un-logged? It's not possible to eat at a deficit and gain weight. It's physics. The human body is not exempt from the laws of thermodynamics.

I have been lifting weights for about 2 years now. I have changed up my program a few times, and am just re-committing myself to my diet. Feel free to add me!

I put cottage cheese on my salads. So delicious.

Sleep makes things easier, however the ONLY thing required for weight loss is a calorie deficit. Sleepiness (for me personally) makes me crave things like sugary coffee, or sweet treats - which are great when I plan for them, but can easily throw me over my daily calorie goal if I'm not careful - and if I'm super tired I'm…

English muffin with cream cheese. Or instant oatmeal. Both are easy to bring to work and are in the 250-300 calorie range. I also have water with a scoop of VegeGreens in the morning.

You can eat any food, just not any quantity. :)

Looking great! Way to go :)
