Oh wow, in the same boat as you guys are. 5 years for me too!.. I have given myself a deadline of May end to lose 10 kg (higher limit).

Today was day 3 of Stage 2. My glutes are so sensitive that I feel them move when I walk :P It's like I was spanked for hours :P

Hi, it's been 2 days i havent worked out. TOM. Usually, I don't care about it, this time they are so bad that I feel weak all the time. Hopefully, day 3 shall be better. Happy lifting, girls :)

BB and Julie - I want to accelerate my fat loss so I do about 20-25 minutes of intense cardio on non-lifting days, but not always :) There are days, when I feel extra energetic, so instead of jumping around pulling pranks on my co-workers, I save the energy to burn some extra cals :P BTW, I did a poke test -- made my team…

Pmagnanifit - Lol @ breaking the iPhone. I have broken so many phones and lost even more! One time, I garbaged the phone along with carrot peels :P Thanks everyone for the encouragement. :D I feel stronger and that is the feeling I am going to remember when I want to bunk gym :) DNA - thanks for the idea. I will take…

Hi, I just finished stage 1. I did forget the set/rep transition and ended up doing more of 3 sets with 8 and 15 reps. Also, I did not increase my cals but upped my protein steadily now, I am 40/30/30 on most days since past 2 weeks. My diet changes have been more cleaner and better over the past 3 weeks only. Anyhow, I…

HI, add me!

Workout B killed me. I take back my words :D

Hi all, I just started yesterday Stage 1. First I was thoroughly confused about doing Workout B on the same day :embarassed: I wanted to know if anyone felt the excercises were little fancy and light :P compared with that in Strong Lifts. I did only 2 days of SL - I stopped because I found out about NROLW :) Also, now I am…

I have the same problem plus I have urticaria that gets worse when I have more than 2 white eggs or 20gms of chicken :/. Anyone have this stupid skin problem? I hate it :explode:

I always read and re-read my comments before posting. I have this habit coz 1) I am an editor 2) I am really good at offending people :embarassed: 3) It's a community with a lot of emotions :) how to lose weight must be the top most asked question on Google. Everyone has the same goal and have a hard journey ahead -- the…

^^^True that

I am sorry you feel this way. It's natural for any good person with a good heart to go have mixed feelings. You should try talk to yourself about your feeling of guilt. It's not that you did not try to mend things with him. People become bitter and strange, and they are the only ones to help them out of it at times. I…

Amazing! I love the color :smile:

Spinning! I really like to challenge myself my increasing resistance everyday for climb and sprinting so fast that i can't see my legs in the mirror :D

Home cooked dinner, and Hershey's unsweetened hot chocolate with a tbs of honey. :)

Add me please!

Thanks! I will try eating every few hours. I realize I have been focusing too much on workout and not on eating.

Thanks! I'll open my diary. I eat all kinds of food but in small portions. I did doubt that I was not eating enough... :-/

I eat about 1,000 cals a day. Call me dumb but i had set daily calorie intake to 1,200 to lose about 8 kg in 2 months, and I made it a point in the first 2 weeks to stay way below the 1,200 as well.

:heart:

I want shed the 20 kg (~44lbs) I had put on within 6 months of my wedding. :explode: It's been 4 years and I am still to lose all of it. I keep losing a few (4-5kgs) and putting them back on. Please help me stick to my fitness plan and fit into my honeymoon wardrobe :)

I have been sulking for 2 days about my scale not moving. I just tried a pair of shorts that did not fit me 3 weeks back. :happy: :blushing: :blushing: it fit!! so did two of my shirts :drinker:

Today was my rest day. I still went to the gym for half an hour. I bumped into this diet counselor who had all these weird suggestions - women should only lift 2.5 kg of weight; stop lifting you are bulking up; don't have milk; after every one hour have green tea; eat salads through the day with lil bit of bread. I should…

Congratulations! :flowerforyou:

Throw! throw! throw!

MFP shows 1200 as the required number of calories to lose 2 pounds a week. I consume about 800 a day. Before starting the gym I lost 2 pounds/week for 2 weeks only through diet control.

Hi, 30 lbs is my mini goal. Please add me!

Thanks, guys. I have been avoiding going to a doc. because I blamed my weight and non-active life for the pain. I will see one tomorrow!
