I'm literally obsessed. They had all seasons on netflix so I got all caught up for this season :smile: and to the person that thinks it is funny that they smoke all the time, I think it is hilarious that they drink all the time. I wish I could do that at my job :grumble: :grumble:

1. high protein 2. lemon water to avoid the late night munchies 3. constantly changing exercise routine/striving for new exercise goals 4. allowing myself to go over in calories once a week or so, never depriving myself of the foods I like (however, with weight loss my tastes have changed and healthy food is now "yummy"…

^this. but beware. too much cardio and not the correct amount of food = muscle atrophy along with fat loss.

OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM I :heart: PB :bigsmile:

yea but how do they shrink? like I would assume that the fat inside these cells leaves causing them to shrink. where does such fat go???
-
The calories it has you set to is really low for only a .5 a pound weight loss. Are you short? If not I would say maybe you're at a point where your body doesn't want to lose anymore? Maybe you need to rest your activity level if you're on your feet all day? I think this might be a case of not eating enough... eating out…

Hey, we're almost exactly the same. I'm a hair under 5'4" and about 130 (when the scale isn't being a poopy head). Right now this is what my routine is: MWF: Run (5k usually) and swim/elliptical/exercise video if I feel up to it to round out for an hour TThS: The New Rules of Lifting for Women, and some added cardio if I…

^this. if you don't have a HRM, it is definitely worth the cost. oh and maybe try running outside instead? I find it more enjoyable to be outside and to create my own pace. Plus I have found I go faster outside without trying harder... the tredmill stunts my speed :smile:

O my god I ask this question continuously.
-
your post had a ton of very good points in it. I am not an educator or have experience with homeschooling but this is the one question that I have always wondered. I have always been under the impression that school does more than just teach academics. You learn critical social skills that are necessary for adult life in…

I get honked at alllll the time when I'm driving. and 9/10 it is truckers trying to get my attention because they can see down into my car. Honestly, I find it annoying because they are just plain nasty most of the time. That being said, one guy came up to me in the grocery store once and told me that he saw me from across…

Fish, Ground turkey, and the occasional lean steak never hurts. Eat a small one and it is high in protein :)
-
well at least your partner isn't trying to GAIN weight. My boyfriend is trying to gain weight because he can't seem to keep on weight and therefore eats everything in sight including fast food, soda and cookies/candy/sweets. it is SOOOOOOO frustrating. I'm over here working my butt off to look good and it seems like I have…
-
LOL I didn't buy any clothes when I was at my biggest. I pretty much stuck to sweat pants and dresses because they were stretchy and still fit when I was fat. I still haven't bought any since losing weight. Waiting to lose 10 more pounds to decide... Either way, I'm mostly just finally fitting in to my old clothes...
-
uhhh.... good luck with that method...... but anyways, I'm on Kariva, it is really low dose hormones. Only weight gain I noticed is in my chest.
-
I would half it... half a banana, one scoop whey, one cup of almond milk, strawberries. Maybe use regular milk to get more protein or plain greek yogurt. I would try to find more protein dense and low calorie substitutions for it. I make one with 2 scoops whey, strawberries and almond milk... and it is only about 350-400…

lifting has made my butt more bubbly.... you can ask my boyfriend if you don't believe me.
-
I alternate both. Typically do 3x a week weights, 4-5x a week cardio. 3 of those cardio days are usually 3mile runs "steady state" cardio and 2 of those are HIIT on the elliptical. I've read that it is detrimental to do HIIT everyday (and it is HARD to do it everyday if you do it right). HIIT allegedly continues to burn…

LOL, people are so quick to be butthurt around here.

I'm 23 and it seems like everyone is getting married or pregnant or has two kids. TBH, it drives me nuts. I have a boyfriend but I definitely want to wait until I'm 30. I know things happen, but I am about to graduate college and I'd like to get my Masters and have some form of a career and stability before I bring a child…
-
I think that sounds good. You're body may gain weight a little or plateau for a week or two as it gets adjusted to the new calorie level, but then you should start losing again. If you wear a HRM I would eat back my exercise calories, if you don't, try eating back half of them because machines and MFP guesses can be…
-
I get tired when I don't eat enough. and that could even mean less than 1400 calories a day.
-
yes. it is fine. but I would make sure it fits your macros
-
that was your first post ever? OP please don't listen to this advice...
-
I would say go back to heavy lifting. I tried JMBR and it was WAYYYY easy for me. I too, have 10 pounds to lose and would like to hear some advice. I'm only 20%BF tho so it is getting difficult.

I'm sorry, I can't take anything serious that contains the word: obesogens
-
You need to eat more. No one should only eat 1200 calories a day. That would be miserable. The only time I eat that little is when I'm sick and have no appetite. I don't know about you, but veggies don't fill me up. Maybe for like 30 minutes, but then 30 minutes later I'm ravenous and eating everything in sight. Make sure…
-
I track it. I tend to stick to high alcohol, low calorie choices like rum and diet coke or vodka and diet tonic... OR I just have one of those free for all weekends where I don't log anything. I've still been losing weight this way, it is just a little bit slower. but that is OK with me because it means I'm learning how to…
