I have a hard time too and I am only trying to get 100 grams! I really do plan my days around meat these days. I feel like a cavewoman sometimes. LOL :grunt: :snort: Need meat!

LOL! :bigsmile:

Yeah, I read it on a forum somewhere... so it must be true!:drinker:

I've lost the amount of cheese an American eats per year! ...or 30 guinea pigs! ...or half an elephant penis! Ha! :drinker:

Ditto that! Great NSV!

I don't have any pics but my arms have been a source of embarrassment for me since I was 13, when I saw a photo of myself in a tank top. I hadn't worn a tanktop, or even a bathing suit, in public since then (and I am now 39, AND I live in South Florida!)... until last weekend! I wore a tank to Walgreen's and no one even…

Keep going.

Being defeated by pushups in every gym class I was ever forced to take is the reason I want to do pushups. :bigsmile:

Thanks Karen! Great info!

I will keep trying then! Thanks all! :flowerforyou:

I like everything better than squats... except a flabby *kitten*. :bigsmile:

It's all about switching out the bad habits for new and better ones! That's huge! Good for you!! :flowerforyou:

Haha! How true.

Thanks everyone! :flowerforyou:

Wow! Impressive! I too hope to do a real pushup one day! ...Maybe even 20! :flowerforyou:

Mine too! That's gunna be hot! Great job, both of you!! :bigsmile:

And it looks good too! Great job! :flowerforyou:

Fantastic! :flowerforyou: And you are so right. Luck has no part in this!

I would never ditch my friends for a lifestyle change. They are very important to me and my mental health. I'd be a lunatic without them! Your friend is upset because you don't have time to spend with her because you're too busy working out? That is pretty understandable. Doesn't sound like jealousy to me.

UNbelievable! You look amazing! :flowerforyou:

LOL :bigsmile:

Yep. This.

That's a good idea. I am going to try that. Before things clicked for me, on a regular week day (the weekends were even a tad less healthy), I would eat: no breakfast - bottled water mid morning lunch - mountain dew with one of a few local lunch places - pastrami sub and chips from the sub place - chicken souvlaki stick…

Absolutely! For me it started with reading the labels and KNOWING what a serving actually was. And then figuring out where it was worth it to me to spend my calories and which treats wouldn't blow it for me. A serving of Doritos is 11 chips. (140 cals) A serving of "fun sized" snickers are two pieces! (a happy surprise -…

SO possible!! And once you know that, you're unstoppable! Great job!! :flowerforyou:

Wow! Fabulous! :flowerforyou: And happy belated birthday!!

I love reading all the updates! Great job :flowerforyou: I don't think I would be able to stand after a 13 mile run. Great pic! I got stuck at one weight for about a month too, but it has started to shake loose again, slowly.... but surely! Keep up the great work!

Perfect analogy.

Yes, that's her, and I agree.

You're another one I have learned a lot from. Thanks for taking the time to "complicate" things a little in your posts. :flowerforyou:
