So So true, agree with it all!!

Oh, and I though this was an interesting piece on this subject as well.... http://www.optimizedwoman.com/womens-lifecoaching-article-dieting.html

It's just one of those things that we just have to deal with. Hormones...This is also another one of those things that makes me roll my eyes when men make broad sweeping comments about weight loss for everyone, as if the same things happen in our bodies. We just have to push through it all and be prepared for those moments…

:noway: Starvation mode should have been the first one suggested!!! Elicits tons of anger and Harvard research. If we can do words, by far the largest debate on MFP, I cannot think of one train wreck so horribly replayed, A Calorie is NOT a Calorie

You are gorgeous, I can't stop looking at the pics! Awesome Job!

A thread that has been running since January, almost every question asked and answered about 30DS. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1186209-goal-30-day-shred

This was me on 30DS :laugh:, but it was up the steps that was a problem.

So I just ended 30DS, increased the days from 30-45, 5 extra days for each level. 3Days 30DS, 1Day Cardio, alternating. Had no rest days built in, but due to life, took a total of about 7 days off during the course of the program. Here are my results: Starting Weigh-in: 234.4 Neck: 16.9 inches Waist: 51.6 inches Hips: 47.2…

Make Me Meek Mill

On L3D5, I am getting slowly better at this level, but I much say that this is my least fav level, and I thought L2 was bad. Has everything to do with my frustration regarding my strength level. One day I will do 30DS all over again and I WILL murder it! I heard other suggest JM's Ripped in 30. I am going to try that or…

Behind the ears hun :laugh:! Unless you have an ear nibbler on your hands...

I don't actually use perfume, I use body oils, like it much better. I think the problem is that people don't understand that you can't just uncap a bottle of toilet water, smell it, then buy it. You need to smell it ON your skin. Everyone as I like to say "tastes" different, so vanilla may not be your scent. Also, this is…

This very moment......It's Over by Ravaughn

....I love this site... "I can't lose any weight! Help!" :sad: "That is because you are too stupid to know how to use a measuring cup and a food scale..." :grumble: "Really???..." :huh: "Oh wait, lost weight when I upped my cals" :laugh: "ugh, no you didn't...you just got better at using a measuring cup" :grumble:…

I can honestly say that this did happen for me, but in a shorter tome frame. It was not an extreme. Not knowing too much about stuff like TDEE or what a proper caloric amount would be for me, I started at about 1310, and stayed that way for like over a month. 1310 was an amount set by MFP by the way. I lost weight but…

OMFG!!! I thought she was going to say that too, and then they were gonna screw. Then I thought Beth looks like 17, would that make Daryl a rapist?? I can't have that, I love him too much. The shows have been slow though, I too am waiting for them to link up, and it is killing me. But I realize that I am fine with most of…

Today is L3 D2 and let me explain that I am not accusing L3 of being as cardio crazy as its predecessors, but you still find yourself wanting to give up. Now granted, there is a 1/10 chance that it will be because you are wheezing--but mostly because...well, you are in pain. Not real pain, but that omg there are no muscles…

I was trying to think of instances where a "professional" might suggest such a thing.

I use situations like this for motivation. You can't let it eat you up on the inside. I once had my aunt come up to me while I was on my comp and she checked my screen and noticed that I was participating in a weight loss forum, not mfp, but another. She rolled her eyes and said "Why would anyone want to hear anything you…

Even if that was the case, the doctor should have followed up for clarity. You just don't tell people 500 cals and not check for understanding. That is like throwing someone a bottle pills and saying take two a day, no discussion about side effects, how many hours between each pill, whether it should be take with food,…

I am on day 14 of L2, so I will be moving on to level 3 in a few days. I say 14 because I extended the 10 days to 15 for each level. Will be cool to finally get to the last level and finish it. Ready for something new. Are you doing 30DS straight through or breaking it up. It is recommended by Jillian herself that we not…

False TNP did not shower/bathe today

I almost forgot about this thread, I was 230 back on 01/27, as of today, I have weighed-in at 223.9. Hoping to lose more, am ending a challenge soon, and would like to have some strong finishing numbers :drinker:.

L2 D7 completed and finally the planks are getting better, yay me! Going to transition some of the modified moves to the advance moves--I have enough time since I'm doing each level for 15 days. Hopefully by the end of the 15 days, they will all be advanced. I also jump on the treadmill for an additional 40min, and so far,…

That is really high. You would be on track to burn 1000cals in an hour, which is much more elusive than people on MFP seem to think...how fast were you going??
