Oh I'm not dissing ANYONE that wants to live that liftstyle. My point of this post was to tell woman that they CAN lift and not become she-hulk by picking up some weights. I would never make fun of someone who is living the life the way they want.

Always remember inclusion, not exclusion. If you want it, eat it.

Eating less than 1.2k calories a day is really really hard to achieve if you're eating a proper amount of protein, fruits, veggies, and carbs. A decent sized chicken breast is like 200 calories! Also, two scrambled eggs is around 200 calories too. You probably aren't logging your food correctly. You need to measure and…

Chicken alfredo and cookies... ughhh

I feel ya. Every time i start talking about my weight loss/inches lost, or how I weigh myself, someone HAS to try and tell me what to do! Some chick at my work that is overweight was trying to tell me a bunch of bull**** that just made me laugh my *kitten* off. Every time someone has something they are sharing with others…

Never weigh yourself after eating... of course you are going to weigh more because the weight of the food is in your body now. Plus.. with that kind of thinking and the amount of times you are weighing yourself, you're just going to stress yourself out. Just weigh yourself 1 a day, in the morning, and take into…

Yea, let him laugh and then tell him to not get pissed off when other men hit on you because of your rockin' body.

Go to a gas station with gift cards.

Go do some running and intense cardio... You'll get the runner's high and feel a hell of a lot better! <3

I eat meat.. and after almost crying at that video, I will continue to eat meat. I do not agree with their methods of killing them... But honestly, if they inject chemicals into the animals to kill them, they are just contaminating the meat and it will not be sell-able. I don't agree with them being beaten, left to slowly…

Any type of salad mixes you like, avocado, tuna, tomato, sunflower seeds, and crunchy onions with any dressing you like.. Soooo good.

Here's the thing.. If you are going to weigh yourself every day.. You HAVE to tell yourself that a pound or 2 gain IS NOT something to flip out about. It is just fluctuations in your body and it is NORMAL.

You defiantly need to eat more. If you are really working yourself that much and only eating that little, it's going to ruin your body. You need to eat at least like, 1.2k calories a day. What kind of exercise are you doing? If you're lifting and looking for muscle you really really need to eat more otherwise you are not…

Try eating things that are high in protein and fiber. One of my favorite snacks that usually curbs hunger for about 2 hours is Yoplait 100 cal Greek Peach yogurt. It has 10g of protein. I know it's hard sometimes, but try not eating junk at any of your meals but instead trying filling it with something fresh and especially…

Baby carrots, Celery, roasted garlic hummus... yum yum

I know that I love stuffed animals for Valentine's Day <3 If she does, get her one too! But no one can really tell you what would be best for your girlfriend, you should know... or even ask her! I will never understand why people don't just ask lol. I would be much more happier getting something I asked for and KNOW that I…

So true on the instructor part. I've heard about instructors singling people out and making fun of them because they couldn't make the steps! I love my instructor though, she teaches multiple classes there including ballet for toddlers. i'm pretty sure to be a good Zumba instructor you need to be a nice, energetic person.

I started taking Zumba classes and I have like.. NO dancing coordination at all! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! Im a heavy person and before I started working out, I had little to no exercise at all. At my first class I got about 80% of the steps and man did I sweat like crazy! Don't worry about other people looking at you dance…

Cardio isn't necessary to achieve a lean body. I have friends who HATE cardio and they're pretty damn fit. I have two male friends that are around 170 lbs and about 10% body fat and neither of them do cardio.

Honestly, unless you are doing something COMPLETELY ridiculous, no one cares. The only reason why I look around my gym (its only 1 room) is because I'm new and I like to see what people are doing. Also, I started my weight loss journey at 302 pounds (!!!) and my first class was an hour long Zumba class. It worked me so…

Yea, he is talking about using his own body as a weight, instead of actual weights.

I mainly eat whatever I want, I just choose healthier things that some people. To me, it means that you don't eat already made dinners that have fillers and tons of sodium in them or any kind of "junk" very often. I still eat something sugary pretty much every morning and a small something that is fried every lunch. I've…

It all depends on how much you drink a day. Say you drink like 5 sodas a day at about 200 calories a soda thats 1k calories you are just drinking, not even counting what you ate. But if you ate exactly the same, but cut out the those sodas, then yes it will really matter compared to someone who only drinks a soda or two a…

Those don't bother me as much as the exact opposite posts like that.. The ones where they claim it's "magic weight loss". Like the cabbage soup and the mint/fruit water. If they would of done a little research, they would find out that its not actually good for you.

There is vitamin E cream you can use, or you can break open vitamin E pills and rub them on your stretch marks. I had bad stretch marks from gaining weight so rapidly as a kid and they are pretty much non existent now. Be warned though, vitamin E pills are really sticky.

Go and workout even if you feel like poop. Do something full bodied like, aerobics or zumba. It stretches those stomach muscles and warms them, making the cramps go away. Plus if you do it long enough you will release serotonin and will feel happy and not so cranky.

I made a really great salad one day on accident lol. It is a little high on calories for a salad.. but it kept me full so I didn't eat for a while. 1 can of tuna 1/2 diced avocado 1/4 c. diced tomato 1/4 c. diced mushroom 1/8 c. sunflower seeds 2 tbsp sweet crunchy onion 2 cups of your favorite salad mix Toss it all…

I weight myself every day just to see how much I fluctuate. Before I started working out and eating healthier I use to fluctuate anywhere between 2-4 pounds every day. Now that I stopped drinking soda and starting going to the gym, I stopped fluctuating. I guess it just kinda tells me if I did well for that day or not. It…
