Amazing, amazing progress! Getting ready to start a modified 5x5 (recent ACL surgery has me a little limited).

Most of the online articles I found agree that intensity varies based on a number of factors: age, weight, speed, etc. If you're trying to decide which one to log for your calorie burn, I always play it safe and go with moderate. The important thing is that your exercising! :smile: Here's a good article on getting the most…

Hi all! I've been an acute asthmatic since childhood (diagnosed around 3 or 4). Three or four hospitalizations every month until I was in my early 20s. Then I got healthy, started working out, started paying attention to which foods make me worse - and my asthma was finally under control. Then, I got lazy. Now, 135 pounds…

I love the 14 oz. GNC Total Lean (premixed not powder) ~ 170 cal, 6g fat, 25g protein, 6g carbs and a ton of other great vitamins/nutrients. These are perfect for when I'm running late in the morning or need a quick snack to fill me up. Strawberry is my favorite.

Bump!

Been a few days since I posted, but I've been sticking with it. I've decided to stay at Level 1 for an extra week so I can get through the whole thing without stopping! :-) But, I'm definitely improving and thats the whole point right?! Almost forgot...finished day 9 today and have lost a total of 5 inches! Woohoo!

Had this for breakfast! Yummy! One of my new favorites - thanks for sharing! :-)

Still have 126 to go...tired of the yo-yo, diet plans, and gimmicks so this time I'm focusing on slow and steady. I'd love the shared support so anyone can feel free to add me. :-)

Bump!
