Feel free to add me. Anyone can. I love support and I am a great motivator...

Feel free to add me. I am a working single parent, so I get it. Its not easy, but you totally have this.

I am a big fan of If It fits your macros... I use the calculator on that website to set my percentages for Macros

I did this last year with some great results. As Cheryl said, getting through the carb headache/hangover with some broth is a great way to do that...

I am from Sacramento, Cali... And yes, it does get cold here :-)

Anyone can send me a friend request. I have done two W30s.

I would not...I have a smoothie every day. You can prep the dry ingredients if you need but would worry on anything else. I can have a smoothie made in about 3 mins.

Exactly what BroScience and Torontonius said. Squats are something that most forget. I just started them again, big diff.
-
Just started the program myself. Adjust to what you need, and be prepared to be sore...I was lifting before, but not like this :-)

I would tailor your calories to be based on your activity. IIFYM is a good place to start. If it helps, I had the same issue the entire month of October. I met with a friend who is an MD, and she looked at my cals, then my macros and said to reduce my carbs, increase my raw veggies and protein. It is working, and I just…

Amazing work. Agree with all said above. You exude confidence and look awesome!
-
Very impressive! Great work!!!
-
If you have are walking away from your workouts and feeling fine, nothing wrong with that. Doing intervals and staying at a higher hr will burn more cals and will also build your cardio engine. Everyone's hr max is different, and it does change as your fitness increases. I have been told you can't get to a max. I have seen…

Amazing job!

Good group to get advice on this: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/discussions/10118-eat-train-progress

I work a high stress client facing job. Not a JD, but some similarities. For me, I just make the time. I also make the most out of a workout. Examples are, I switched from using an elliptical machine for cardio to the Cybex Arc Trainer. Much more of a burn in the same amount of time... Also, I make my food count. I think…

Thank you for saying that. A lot of confusion on that topic...

Here is a good summary of what IIFYM is and is not... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/817188-iifym Sidesteel knows what is talking about...

Deansdad, not going to get in a debate here. There are a number of tools out there to calculate goals. You are right, there will be variance. The OP is looking for some help on the topic of cal goals. My "right on the money" is not talking about accuracy, but that the people encouraging this girl who is looking for help…

Use the IIFMM calculator that Issac gave you. Right on the money. Eat enough and keep up with the healthy foods. Get in exercise 4x a week and don't eat your cals back since you are using the outside calculator. Watch your macros and your cals and get enough. I have been using this and it does work!
-
There has been some great advice offered to you already. Getting a healthy looking body requires time and dedication, setting goals, executing those goals, and surrounding yourself with positive and motivating people. It is a balance of good food, lots of work, and sticking to it. SideSteel posted 2x to you. He is in my…

I am a huge fan of cycling. I used to ride 100-200 miles a week. It is a great way to lose and build a very strong engine!
-
Whole30 is a great thing from my experience. I don't think you have to "re-start" if you take in something you should not, but the program is well thought out and does work. It has many benefits above just the weight loss as the goal is to isolate out inflammatory foods/additives and slowly re-introduce to see the impacts.…

Found the exact same thing here...crazy!
-
I just started watching my sodium, but I find that some of the less healthy carbs are loaded with salt. I try to eat more protein/less carbs, and that has helped with my sodium. I am sure everyone is diff. I find my proteins are way less in salt.
-
I was just told to get my Blood Pressure down or the doctor was going to start me on BP meds. Not something I wanted. I went from 144/90 to 124/84 in one week by watching my sodium (1500-2300/day), drinking water, exercise, and slowly losing weight. I think salt makes a huge impact on water retention, BP, and other…
